I do. I don't want to have to rely on a rookie to handle run stopping duties. Pope has experience and sounds like a good fit next to Trips.

If Pope signs, I gather that opening day starting line will be:

DE Schobel
DT Tripplett
DT Pope
DE Idonije

You ever see the movie "Major League".. Remember at the beginning of the movie when the guys at the diner are reading the roster of cast-offs and one guy quips "Who are these f##king guys"?

That's turning into the 2006 Buffalo Bills.

The only problem is there wont be any Pictures of Ralph Wilson's naked body in the locker room to take a piece of tape off everytime the Bills get a win.

Though Jeff Garcia would be all about that.

Maybe a Mrs. Wilson cut out....she's a vibrant 55 year old bombshell

Well they are a bunch no names pretty much, but I'm fine with it as long as they create havoc against opposing offenses.
Pope was a starter. Trips could have started, but indy rotated their linemen.
Schobel is an obvious starter and Idonije sounds like he'd be slightly better than Kelsay. One can only hope he's the next O-gun.

This dude was inactive for like most of last year, wasn't he? What makes you think he's a NFL starter??

I think throwing some money at grady jackson wouldn't be a bad move either

dont use throwing money and the Bills in the same sentence again, please.

But I TOTALLY agree with you.. I dont think Grady became a bum in 2 months.

Pope started for Denver a couple years ago.
Idonije based on his stats is almost comparable to Kelsay.

Grady Jackson was a bum before joining the Packers last year. He kept failing his physical in NO and had an attitude problem. He did okay with the Pack but there's a reason they didn't retain him either.

I want stats comparable to Schobel or Pat Williams, NOt Kelsay.
