All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!

Would you guys consider this an acceptable trade for Travis or do you think it would take more? Right now we have 3 TE's who all share the same abilities I think it would be a plus to bring someone like Lee in to diversify the group. An athletic TE who will go out and get the ball.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Donald Lee has all the Talent in the world, but never uses it! he drops every other pass and the ones he catches he fumbles when hit1 If he ever gets a head on his shoulders he could be very good.
We will not trade away draft picks, when need new young blood from the draft.
The ONLY way Henry goes to Miami had better have one of the names/phrases "1st round" or "Jason Taylor".
I read today that the teams that are interested are Oakland, Zona, Miami, Carolina, and Tampa.... i should mention this is Henry's list, and he only is looking at warm weather teams.... sot here could be more (or less really).
I am still holding out hope that we can squeeze a second rounder out of him. But TD has tor eally sell the "we might just keep him" angle. In fact he shoudl be telling travis "if you start acting like a cancer and screaming about how you will not be here next season and lower your value, I WILL make your ass sit on the bench a whole nother year."
Anyway... if we get 2 2nds, we could a- trade up into the 1st round (more fun for me to specualte on a pick) or b- look for value at the Oline, TE, K (a bit high but ugh Lindell) S, LB, DT... the positions we need are positions you can find value inthe 2nd round... option b is probably smarter even if it is less fun.
Agreed. I doubt if we ended up with 2 2nd rounders, that we'd trade up for a 1st. No real reason to. Makes more sense to stay put and draft best quality player available for the spots you mentioned (OL, DL, K, S, CB, TE) probably in that order. I place TE last b'cse I'm being confident that Euhus and Campbell will recover fine from their injuries. Of course Tom & company will know better where they stand and with the advice that their doctors give them, can know whether we should be worried about the TE position. In either case, I think Jason Peters needs to be worked on more. Mularkey should work with him directly and teach him some tricks of the trade. Peters could be a menace for years to come if he were to develop to full capacity!!!
Rumor has it that if Seattle can't keep Shaun Alexander, they'd be interested in Henry as well.
Doesnt Seatle have Maurice Morris.... I think he would take over if shaun left.

I live 20 miles from Seattle and no one here really has faith in Morris to shoulder the weight of a full time back. Besides, it took me 3 seasons in Madden 05' to get his rating to 95. It only took 1 1/2 with Willis.
Well in that case we should Probably trade for Seneca Wallace....

I can't wait to see what ol' Tommy squeezes out of a deal for Henry. Myself, at this point for the Bills franchise, I don't want draft picks. I am not confident in draft picks becoming productive immdiately. I would prefer to trade for a player. Senaca Wallace sounds good to me! Really.....two young QBs on the roster would be a nice thing!
I've been thinking of the Houston Texans too....I wonder if there is ANY chance we might be able to get a deal done trading Henry for Domanik Davis. That would be a good deal for the Bills, in my opinion.
Also, I could see a trade with Oakland...Henry for Zereoue or Wheatley.
How about a package of Henry and Reed to Oakland for one of above and Doug Jolley?

Zereoue or Wheatly? No way! Why would we want any of those losers? If we trade Henry over, we trade for a 3rd draft pick and a O-lineman (since they have many) or at best maybe Jolley, an O-lineman and a 4/5th rounder or something like that. But we definitely don't want a has been RB. I like Shaud and Burns has always been dependable as a backup. We could pickup a low pick RB for the practice Squad although, isn't Jonathan Smith (Aka Fast Freddie also listed as a WR/RB) ? If so, we are probably covered with depth in that area and need to concentrate on other areas...especially that O-line!!!
