what they do (or can do) in free agency will go a long way in determining what they need to do (or can do) at the draft

I wish you wrote a bills blog too.

Love what they did last year. Hyde and power.
Hard to top that

I know...but I'd like to see them plug one hole before heading into the draft
- Michael Pachla

I agree but doesn't seem he wants to go that route. I only see Baker Mayfiled in my future but I don't think it's the same future as the Bills.

I'd take an offensive lineman on the right side...there's still a lot of time before the draft with plenty of moves to be made (cousins) and a combine to go through

I'd love for the Bills to grab Cousins but can't see them doing that or him picking the Bills.

wasn't saying get him, just saying that one of the teams looking for a qb at the draft might get land him making the bills shot at a qb a little better...same with the combine having an effect on prospect rankings

Hard to say, the bills might be looking at him the same way.

If they could find a fa qb, those picks should yield starters.

When your picking in the 20ies , i feel like there is less bustability. Old days

John fina
Henry Jones

Solid starters

I guess a QB means nothing without any WR's

scheme means a lot too...as does pass protection and a line that can blow open holes for the running game

Profootballtalk's Mike Florio passes along "increasing chatter" Patriots OC Josh McDaniels will stay in New England after this season.

McDaniels as head coach of the Colts has long been considered a done deal, but the Colts couldn't get McDaniels to formally commit until after the Patriots were finished playing. During the playoffs, it sounds like McDaniels has had second thoughts about going to Indy. If McDaniels does spurn the Colts, it will immediately raise questions about Bill Belichick's future in New England.

I thought I heard rumors that bellicheck won't be back... I know it's hard to believe, but if he does, McDaniel taking over makes a lot of sense

Colts must be pissed and I wouldn't blame them, not much left to choose now I would think.

I'm pretty sure that's why the browns are sticking with a coach that went 1-32...not really much out there

No excuse for 1-32 or 1 -31 whatever it is.

I understand that but that shows no progression at all in 2 years.

their drafting has been suspect the last two years, they don't have a qb, nor do they have any, and I mean any, wide receivers

Neither did either backup QB, our D fell apart again. Norwood missed a chip that Stevie Wonder would have made.
- SABRES 89



Seriously?

46/47 yards on grass, a kick he never made incidentally, is pretty (frank)ing far from a chip, even today.

Hell we had 3 missed kicks under 30 yards today, in a dome.

That was probably the best Superbowl ever. And with the added bonus of Satan's team losing ? Perfect.
