so far in the off season, the bills have added 4 pro bowl players to the offense and retained hughes

bills better hurry up and get clay that contract today

4th best TE out there is the third stringer for the eagles and we just let our top 2 walk

He's not a difference maker IMO, so if we miss out on him I'm ok with it
Nice player though

they will have to draft a TE IMO in the second or third rd if they do not get clay, miller or greshem


right now I feel they need to grab one of those 3 so they can draft 2/3 of these with those picks
qb
safety
o line

with the additions the bills have made the locker room should be interesting to say the least....heck it may even resemble the late 80's early 90's teams. In the right offense i think clay can be huge.

Makes sense to me
With how our offense is shaping up, I don't know that we need an impact TE
Even if we get Clay, he likely has the 4th most receptions on our team this year behind Watkins, Harvin & McCoy... And maybe even behind Woods...
He could be a difference maker in the Red Zone, which is obv important, but even an average TE can catch some TDs
We might be better off spending our $$$ elsewhere

how ironic...sabres lambasted for tanking, but if they don't finish last, it's a failure...

can't win (or lose? )

Irony feedback..... the media might explode..... hopefully.

Bogosian has four assists in 12 games with Buffalo as a do-it-all defenseman, playing significant minutes in all situations. What's more impressive, however, is that Bogosian has a plus-3 rating on a team that allows a lot of goals.

I really don't think the Sabres have looked any better or worse with Bogosian or Myers. Then again, when a team is this bad, it's really hard to tell anything.

And it's interesting, for all the talk about how Myers and Stafford have provided a shot in the arm for Winnipeg, and that they are thriving under a new system, the Jets have lost ground since that trade. They are now in 9th and both LA and Vancouver have a game in hand on them. Granted, they also have injury problems.

A couple of things to converse about:

1. BR recently published an article about the most untouchable player on every team. Sam Reinhart was chosen while Girgensons and Kane were considered honorable mentions. Do you agree?

2. If you could choose one of Hall or O'Reilly to pursue this summer, who would you choose?

3. Who do you believe is the most attractive option in FA for the Sabres considering we have to hit the cap floor?

- SabresNHL


1. Reinhart, clearly.

2. O'Reilly, only because he's actually attainable. Or Sharp.

3. Martin & Green

I watched most of that game and I have to say I wasn't too impressed with him.

Not bad actually. I thought he had some good shifts but took a knee on knee in the third. Didn't return.

The UB game last night was ugly, but a win is a win.

Even more exciting, though, was that the commercials informed me that Reebok brought back its "Pump" sneakers. Now, if they just bring back LA Lights, life would be awesome again.

It seems to me a trade that should benefit both teams. Although I doubt Stafford re-signs there.
