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!

Not only does it leave us in a great posistion for getting a OLB, but I think we can also net another pick out of it. I wouldnt do the 2nd and 3rd for Turner. We need to keep or improve the number of picks we have not subtract from them.
My proposal was swaping 2nd rd picks and giving up #92
Re: Sirius specualting that Turner will be a Bill.
I like # 2 it gives us more options in the first round...

Possible scenarios discussed:
1) Just swapping first rounders which San Diego would be interested in.
2) Our 2nd and the 3rd from Baltimore for Turner. More likely.
Did he really have 6 yards a carry on a 150 touches? That's 900 yards? That can't be right but thats the numbers they were throwing out there. The first half hour on Afternoon Blitz was dedicated to Michael Turner in Buffalo!!
Re: Sirius specualting that Turner will be a Bill.
Didnt Turner have 2, 80 yard runs or somethin? That might have an effect on his average considering he had such limited touches. I know hes good but im torn if hes really worth what they want. I need to see more.

Yeah his 80 yard runs can definately be a negative i love you guys trying to go out of your way to find faults with the guy. In limited action he shown he has a good ypc especially in the fourth quarter where teams are trying to stack the box because they know the run is comming. In those situations his ypc is around 7. One of you guys points out that during the begining of the game when he's subing for LT his ypc is only 5.7. Geez, im convinced he's horrible. Well i can't justify giving up more for him then mcgahee, thats a joke. How many 80 yards does willis have? How what was willis ypc? how effective was willis running when teams knew he was comming. How many big runs did have have in the 4th quarters of games? He's shown more in limited action then willis ever did in a buffalo uni. Keep trying guys, because the more you try to reason why we shouldn't trade for him the more i wonder what kind of football fans are posting these on boards. Have any you actually watched him play? Maybe you should. Willis was worth crap and we got better value for him. Don't compare turner to willis because willis fails on all comparisons except the amount of time he's been a starter.

I'd offer them the picks the Ravens gave the Bills for McGahee. If they don't bite, forget it. I can't justify giving-up more than the Bills got for Willis.
That's a great point.

wow....someone has a man crush....just saying, i remember one which was against the Colts who were amazing in rush D right? also while in the 4th quarter. I didnt say hes bad, just sayin i dont know if hes worth all that. Lets see him take a full load of carries through out a game and season before we start jumpin on this guys junk.
Re: Sirius specualting that Turner will be a Bill.
Im not focusing on one poster im focusing of the many that keep saying that sense we received two 3's and a 7th for willis we should trade any more then that for turner. The comparisions are not valid, market value for a baby making, buffalo bashing, unintelligent underachieving pain in the ass is two 3's and a 7. Turner has shined in limited action as a back up, he had very productive college career and was drafted in a low round by the chargers. His value is he's young he has shown big play capablity, and the next team will get him on a contract that will be bargain compared to what you would get for him next year as ufa. We gave willis away because he was not a match for buffalo. His market value is that. Its a different game with turner or lynch or peterson. all will cost you first round pick value.
