AP - All Day - At least 1300 yards and 10 TDs like clockwork. Those other guys are either great or Meh.

Agreed. Then get Ellington or a stud wideout in rd 2. Wait on a qb, using the next 3-4 picks for the best combination of wr's rb's and possibly one of Graham, Gronk, or Thomas.

Physically speaking I'd say Getzlaf would be a good one except I think Eichel is more of a shooter. Not to say that he can't make plays but I don't expect him to put 3x more assists than goals like Getzlaf normally does (though he did score 31 this year).

Dog days of HB posting, but I'm thinking of getting seats for the Toronto preseason game on 9/26 (Friday).

Let a brother know if you're interested via pms.

Sold! Said this Saturday, EJ as back up.

Christian Ponder is somewhat of another option? Just don't understand the Bills brass not drafting a QB (trading for a solid NFL QB).

Tim Tebow is better than any backup QB on our roster!!

Kyle Orton and Josh Freeman are still out there. I'd take Orton over EJ Manuel, that's for sure. He's no world-beater, but he is the better option right now.

No, they are both big power forwards. Not to say that perry isnt a sniper, or getzlaf isnt a top center, but their game is what it is because of their size and skill, not just skill
Eichel is 6'1" 185 lbs and he will not be able to dominate his opposition with his size. His game will be skating and skill. I don't know his game well enough to say if he is a crosby type player, or datsyuk, stamkos, spezza. But I think all of those comparisons would be more accurate than say getzlaf or perry.

If you could somehow get Burn and Weirdoh to show up, I would be all in on that.

Bills are apparently signing Jordan Palmer tomorrow.







"He'll serve as a mentor for EJ"

He can't play a lick - and hasn't played a lick (15 passing attempts in the last 4 years) - but he'll sure be able to tell EJ he sucks.

This year and especially next year, I feel bad for the other teams in the tournament.

Remember when they signed Matt Leinart for the last preseason game, and then cut him two days later?

Remember when they signed Matt Flynn to back up Jeff Tuel for the Kansas City game, and then cut him two days later?

The gap isn't going to be as wide as you think. The Sabres won it three years ago, and look where they are now.

Being that many of these guys won't have much experience together other than development camp 2 months prior, it can take some time for line chemistry and stuff to develop as well.
