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

I saw Xavier Omon in two games against lower level competition:the only question I had about him was his speed--because it is tough to judge when a guy is going against lower level players who are often a bit slower. If he has a decent time, some team is going to get a very interesting later round or UDFA prospect. I can easily see him being a Dave Meggett-type of 3rd down back. He catches the ball well and runs very hard for his size. He really impressed me.
Eric Foster from Rutgers is a very interesting prospect. The one problem that I have always had with him is his size: he isn't very big and I'm not sure if he is big enough to make it in the NFL. Otherwise, he can play--I saw him make a lot of good plays for Rutgers over the last two years. He's extremely quick and, if he has enough size to make a NFL roster, it would be as a 3-tech in a Tampa 2 (which is what Rutgers plays). As you might expect from a DT who is that small, relatively, he can wear down over the course of a game and, like a lot of Tampa 2 DTs, he can be pushed around or caught out of position at times against the run, especially against bigger offensive lines. Still, he has been one of the best Rutgers players over the last two years going up against Big East competition, so it's not like he hasn't faced good competition before. I wouldn't put him in the top tier of DTs, but he could be an interesting rotational player for a T-2 team providing some pass rush from the middle (kind of what the Bills did in moving Hargrove to DT). My only concern would be how he would handle the size differential, although I do think that he could put on some weight. Not sure if he could move to DE--he's kind of short. I'd have him as maybe a 4th or 5th round pick tops, though.
Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.
