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!
The two biggest needs for the Bills seem to be at left tackle and defensive tackle. They could look at a guy like USC's Winston Justice here, but with the mammoth Haloti Ngata of Oregon still available, it is likely he'd be the pick. Not merely a space-eater, Ngata's lack of statistical production can be attributed to the attention he's receieved from blockers over his career, specifically last season. Constantly being double and triple-teamed, Ngata, who could possibly play NT in a 3-4 defense, makes a huge impact, especially in stuffing the run.
DeMario Minter Weaknesses:
Hands and ball skills are very questionable to say the least...Was arrested for marijuana possession and has some off the field concerns...May have been helped by a strong supporting cast on the Georgia defense...Just doesn't make as many plays as you'd like to see from a guy with his tools.

If Buffalo makes those first three picks, it will be a good draft. There will be other options besides Minter if character and a tendency to underachieve are important enough issues to avoid him.
I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
