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!
maybe it wouldn't be such a big deal if the guy didn't already miss most of the off-season conditioning because of his foot injury- with only a month left, every day counts.
He missed 11 games last year, and 5 games his final year of college. Didn't he also play with Mario Williams and Manny Lawson? I guess he could benefit playing next to Schobel.
Oh God, until we know the severity of the injury let's lighten up people. Everything is such a federal case with some of you. The sky is falling, the sky is falling. DRAMA.
I guess the "neg nancies" were "realistically" concerned about McCargo and our DL.
How many want to keep giving Marv "high fives" for converting our 6th rounder to a 5th for a player that we desperately needed to sign?
Good point. If I was a Bills fan, and this turns out bad about McCargo, I'd think you were an idiot for giving high fives for the "5th round convert" now.
Tank Johnson is available and Simon should be soon, would not mind either or both as insurance polic, hell get both and I would love our d-line (if simon is healthy and can play, Johnson cannot play until game 9)!
Walker was never going to sign here and I doubt we would have gotten a 4th for Spikes with his questionable health. So, even though Marv was wrong about Walker, he got the
This is not atypical of training camp to see injuries during the first few days of pads.
The knee jerk reaction to start speculating that McCargo is a bust is also not atypical of this message board.
Now, if he's out for a significant amount of time, it will be hard for him to contribute this year, but a strained ab muscle is not a huge deal and I would suspect he will be back before long.

Tank is semi-available- he's suspended for something in the neighborhood of 8 games. So even if we got him, we'd need someone else to fill in in the meantime.

He's already been out a significant amount of time- every day he misses just makes it that much more significant. The guy had off-season surgery and missed the OTA's- he was rehabbing when he should have been conditioning. Everyone keeps talking about how guys make such a huge jump from year 1 to year 2- well the reason for that is experience on the field and a full off-season of conditioning. McCargo has neither and it's reached the point where we should be concerned about him even if he is ready to go when the season starts.
As far as Walker- why do people keep dodging the question of WHY he didn't want to be here? When players don't want to come to/stay in Buffalo. something is wrong.
Oh God, here comes Op with the predictions of the franchises end being near in 3...2......1......
Wait, it's 5:30, he is probably stuck in traffic, or something else to ***** about.
NO! This is a great sign.
Actually, like it makes a difference. The guy's a stiff anyway. Just because no one here believes it doesn't alter it.

I don't want to believe it but his performance on the field and his nagging injuries are making reality harder to ignore.... well, at least for me. I can't say the same for a few others....
Seriously, how many times is the guy going to get injured though? This is ATLEAST the 3rd one in the past year. If you were one of the Bills fans (like me) that thought McCargo was a reach in the 1st this doesn't neccessarily make you feel any better about the guy.
And he's been such a force when he has been on the field. Where are we going to find a DT now that can make tackles after an 8-yard gain.

The whole thing's inconsequential to me. He's not even going to start even if he can stay healthy. He brought so incredibly little last year in the half-dozen or so games he did play.
...which would have been fine had he been a 4th rounder, but when a team trades up into the 1st to get you, unwisely I might add, then a little bit more than taking two or three seasons to get your #2 together is expected.
