    Sigh

    Well lads, another season come and gone and we are staring dead on into another "rebuilding" offseason. Luckily with the talent we have we should do ok.

    After doing a little research we have a handful of STUD CB's available, as I have no patience for greedy wastes of time (see Brown and winfield) i happily bid them adios.

    I would try and either package them or ship them sepratley but if we got compensation for Brown/Bledsoe/Magahee (together or seperate) Id try and move up to grab me a nice young QB.

    OL and CB can easily be fixed in the offseason. Id use the rest of the draft to work on OL/DL/WR. Maybe grab a veteran WR in Free agency.

    It seems like a lot of work to be done but luckily this year TD has a lot to choose from. Be another interesting offseason thats for sure.

    Actually putting things in perspective, wouldnt a number 1 draft pick team like Arizona have a need for all 3 of those guys?

    Why would tou trade McGahee?

    Just becauser he didn't give the instant gratification that people expect- Just sit tight on this kid.

    Man, it's pretty harsh how quickly people can turn on folks, especially when those folks are turned on due to someone elses decisions (see McGahee's story).

    If it comes out that Ruben stood up to KG's stupidity and was subsequently dismissed from the remainder of the season, there are going to be a whole lot of people on this site eating the proverbial crow and praising Ruben for having the balls to do what everyone else wanted to.
    Still searching for that offensive rhythm.

    sorry didnt mean to imply I was turning on someone.

    Magahee - Was not knocking him or his potential skill as I felt the day we drafted him hes going to be a solid back someday wherever he ends up. I simply mean with the past two seasons hes had its hard to overlook Henry, and I am not entirley sure we need both.

    Brown - Maybe he did stand up to the coach, and if he did great! As both GW and KG have had their heads in their asses all season long. But given whats been said and done I dont believe he wants to be here any longer.

    Once those two schmucks are fired and we bring in someone who actually knows what he's doing, maybe he'll be excited about being a Bills this season. He hasn't shown much of his usual brand of excitement most of the season.

    You're right, TL. If that is what happened, i will be first in line to eat some crow. It's beginning to sound more and more that Brown had a fight with KG and sat out for that reason.

    I'll be in line, too. Everything I had heard and read previously indicated Ruben had quit. But we all should have known that a couple of snakes like GW and KG would twist things around to put the blame on Ruben. After all, GW and KG have not really taken responsibility for any of our problems this season.
    Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

    Winfield is good but i guess i wouldnt mind seeing him leave if we got a better CB. we need a Ty Law type player. and also < mcgahee might become one of the greats i qouldnt trade him until he plays. i really think he is gonna be one of the ALl time greats.

    Well as i said earlier we are relativley fortunate that we have such a wide pool this year of talent/draft.

    McGahee is a tough call, because i agree he is going to be something special, its pretty tough to overlook henry. Guess this upcoming season will resolve that issue.
