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!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Jets are schooling on how to manipulate the draft. Dbrick was a given, but Mangold and now the QB from Oregon AND pick up Washingtons 2nd rounder next year?
And our new Safety better be probowl level by year 2 or he is a bust. You don't take a safety that high unless he is a Roy Williams or Ed Reed.

This is why the Patriots, Dolphins and Jets have all been in the playoffs recently and we continue to suck every year and miss the playoffs.
They picked up 2 great OL we could've only dreamed we had, picked up a good QB prospect AND got a 2nd round pick next year. Marv isn't smart enough to pull something like that off.
We could've had Mangold. Instead we reach once again. This time on a DT who has injury concerns. What is even worse is there hasn't been another DT even selected since then.
Marv hasn't worked the draft very good to get the best value out of the draft picks. They went into the first day without a plan. They had a few players dialed in and was afraid of losing them so they reached for them instead of being patient and taking the best value at the time we drafted.
We have a ton of holes. Too many to zero in on certain players or positions and give up draft picks in the process. We have so many holes we could've went many different ways which would've filled holes and got better value and more draft picks out of it.
ICE, you were one who trusted Marv and ranted and raved about him. Said he was gonna build this big foundation in the draft because he was so smart and such a great GM, and fix our OL in the draft when we kept signing all of these other teams garbage this offseason. Now you are unhappy. You trusted Marv and he failed.
Like I said I had no issue with his aproach to FA, but his drafting flat sucks. Now most of the OT's worth a SH@! are off of the board again. When gandy is getting our QB's killed this year I wonder what the excuse will be?
These are the exact quotes that drive me to not post here anymore. The draft isn't a quick fix. Why don't you actually give these guys a shot? Maybe the professionals know more than you do.
And you don't have to draft lineman high to build a successful team...there's more than one way to skin a cat.

They know more then I do but he doesn't know more then the rest of the league.
You people have been saying that same quote every draft, offseason, every losing season and coaching change for the last 5 years. You guys said that with Mike Mularkey, Tom Clements, Tom Donahoe, and draft picks like Parrish and Everett last year and some of the other garbage.
Now we are hearing it with Marv Levy and Dick Jauron.

When you say "you people", you're referring to the wrong person. I killed the Roscoe Parrish pick, and Losman. Hated them. Next time when you accuse me of something, actually do your research. I'm far from a homer.
But I'm definitely not going to jump off a bridge because we reached a little. In time, it might be worth it. Use a little objectivity. Who knows.

We heard this when Mularkey was hired too. "What is his record as a coach"
We saw how that turned out. We are gonna continue to suck and it won't be fun.
We'll see how the talent he brings in actually does too. He was left behind with some great young talent like Schobel, Evans, McGahee, Clements, McGee, Spikes, Peters and Fletcher and some other emerging players like Crowell and others with some potential like Preston.
He already has a good foundation to build on. If he can't put the final peices together to a winning team with that then he is truly pathetic. Even if he is successful most of it will be done with talent that was already on the team.
He bombed out this draft. doesn't wanna believe it but they never do. That's why we hear "I'll leave it to the professionals" "You must know more then them" " I guess you should be the HC or OC"
Then after they fail you will rip them apart and act like you always thought they sucked. Then the next staff will come on and we will hear the same old stuff again.

Did I say just you? I was grouping the crowd of people who every year think we are on the verge and every move we make is the best one.
