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!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

coastal's 2013 All-Bills 5 round mock draft and off-season plan
I want us to do something like draft Manti Te'o in round 1
In the past 12 years only 6 ILB's have been drafted in the 1st round, not saying that Manti Te'o won't be drafted in the first, but I don't see the Bills doing it. Also I think they have to go QB in the first, be it Barkley, Smith, or Wilson.

At this point in the process, I would say the exact opposite will happen if the draft was tomorrow.
COMING SOON...

1.) Matt Barkley, QB USC - Pro ready, disciplined, already better than everything else on our roster... not Andrew Luck, but he isn't Ryan Fitzpatrick. In short... although he may drop a bit from the top 5 spot he was assured of at the beginning of the year, Matt is going to start from day 1 in Buffalo and be a welcomed stabilizing change for this franchise.

2.) Tyler Eifert, TE Notre Dame - Matt needs a second TE in addition to Chandler. We need to go back to a more traditional offense that focuses on our running backs, and moving the chains. What rookie QB doesn't like these safety outlets.
3.) Gerald Hodges, OLB PSU - We need to start replacing this unit and although not from WVU, he reminds me of Daryl Talley.
4.) Matt Scott, QB Arizona - He beat Barkley and would be the perfect backup to keep Barkley motivated.
5.) Braxston Cave, C Notre Dame - backup interior line depth.
Other offseason moves - Russ Brandon fired. Polian hired as CEO.

I like your comments and suggestions but do you really think we could justify taking 2 QB's in the draft with so many holes to fill? Why not a WR and CB instead of another QB and Center. If you have to you, could take a WR and a Guard or WR and CB or S. One of those scenarios!
Luckily, there are 4-5 QB's worthy of a 1st Round selection in this draft. Outside of MLB Te'o of ND, I wouldn't consider anything else.
LB's and CB's to fill out the rest of the draft.
WHAT are you talking about? There might be one: Geno Smith - and that being in the last half of the round. No one else is worthy of a first round selection.

Did you see the date on that post? He said that over five months ago. That's what the pre-draft grinder does to QB prospects. In November they look like slam dunks and by April apparently everybody sucks.
Re: coastal's 2013 All-Bills 5 round mock draft and off-season plan
LOL. I didn't, but it doesn't matter. None of these guys were 1st rounders at that point either. You'd have to go back a year for guys like Barkley and Wilson to be spoken about like that. Five months ago everyone knew that none of these QBs were very good.
