Tayzak15 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Better hope to god it's not Tim Tebow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Mills Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Good move. They should try and sign Drew Stanton and draft someone to groom for the future. Too bad they lost Levitre. Can't believe Buddy Nix got snowed on the deadspin crank call-embarrassing for the franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Ironmaker Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 (edited) So who will be taking snaps this year?How about Flutie or Rob Johnson, I don't think Rob's busy after his shift at Walmart. As far as the multi million dollar long term contract Irishman is concerned I really thought he would work out, too bad, had high hopes for him as one of the most intelligent athletes in any sport. He'll make a good backup if he continues his career. I see him coaching down the road. The positive thing about drafting a kid out of college today is the 2 or more years taking second team snaps and carrying a clipboard on Sundays are over. Teams expect kids to take first team reps on day 1 of OTA's and start on Sundays right off the hop. Ooops, I just said today I don't use acronyms because I don't know what they all mean, meant to say optional team activities.

Toad Hunter Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 As a Fins fan, I'm only concerned because I fear who ever they pick to replace him, may not throw as many INTs when pressured lol. I am however concerned about picking up Mike Wallace from Pitts. Didn't the Fins just get rid of a player of the same style in Brandon Marshall because of his attitude only to pay more for one with less impressive stats ?

solopaddler Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 I'd like to see the Bill's trade for Matt Flynn of the Seahawks. He's making way too much coin to be a backup and I believe he's a player they could grow with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its like Seattle trading for Harvin the talent is worth the risk. As a fins fan you must like the Hartline and Ellerby signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toad Hunter Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Yes, I am really happy with the re signing of Hartline, he has always proven to be reliable hands and fast too.. he could easily get another 1000 yrd season with a "true #1" to take alot of the heat off. And Devon Bess is as a great slot rec. as the best of them in my opinion.. but could use some yards after the catch (again, might be more possible with others covering Wallace) Im glad "we" tagged Starks too- he's been impressive the last 2 yrs. But I won't lie, I don't know too much about Ellerby other than the stats on paper. Looks promising but will likely come at the cost of losing Carlos Dansby. "out with the old in with the new" which worries me, tweaking the def. too much could be a mistake -was the only strength of the team for the last 5 yrs. the Secondreary could use a facelift that's for sure. And a pass rusher to go opp. Cam Wake would be my first choices before I looked into the LBS IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly just to see wheather he is more than a 2 trick pony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marko Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Flynn had 5 WR to throw to in Green Bay. Bills wide recievers are not as nearly talented as Jennings, Nelson, Jones, Driver and Cobb. That being said he would be a nice addition to bills for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Ironmaker Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 We really don't know how good or otherwise the Bills receiving corps are,,, they never had a chance to catch the ball before it was picked off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't the Fins just get rid of a player of the same style in Brandon Marshall because of his attitude only to pay more for one with less impressive stats ? marshall is not the same style as wallace. marshall is more of a possesion receiver using his strength to out work cbs, while wallace is a deep threat speedy receiver. who is used to stretch the field, opening up space for other receivers and the running game also a fins fan btw. next up TE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toad Hunter Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Ya Fasano wasn't great by any means, but was usually reliable hands. So he needs to be replaced. But I am more concerned with with Def. Secon-dreary - the pass Def has been weak to say the least for far to long in a pass hungry game. I say we need a dependable corner and DB. I would also like to see Daniel Thomas get traded or released and try to pick up someone who can play more than 2 games with out getting a concussion.

I had not recovered from the first Super Bowl loss and was trying to recover for 4 years in a row, Now that's suffering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
