More variables than sacks to determine the lines effectiveness. I am in the company that believe they would definitely be in the discussion for top defensive line.

I don't disagree, but both Williamses were hurt last year, and we don't even know who Dareus is as a player yet. It's a little premature. They should be leaps and bounds better than last year on the line if they sign Mario, but they're probably a year of playing together away from being a top 5 D-line.

Top 5 or not, the bottom line is that Mario Williams makes the defensive line light-years better than it was last year. I know the statement is more than just kind of obvious, but whether or not they are top 5 or even 10 should be irrelevant. Just sign the guy, and then worry about their ranking.

I agree, I've never argued that point. I just thought it was premature of a lot of Bills fans to be declaring the new D-line (if Mario signs) as the leagues best.

What he does for team on the field won't be known until kickoff in September. But what he does for the image of the organization and the city of Buffalo is massive.

He could borderline flame out and it would still be a win for the Bills.

One might make the argument that Williams comes with more prestige and track record haha.

GR saying Bills players and girlfriends are meeting with Mario and his lady....hot damn

You mean a career high 57 points doesn't earn you that?

Its actually Kyle Williams that said it would be the Best.... Fans just listened and agreed.

Its a football board until the ink on Williams contract dries. Then we can get our focus back on hockey.


Personally its keeping me distracted from how nervous I am about tonights game.

As it should be when the Sabres are on the outside looking in and the Bills seem to be on the cusp of signing the biggest FA on the market not named Peyton Manning

Furreal.

Tyler Myers should/shouldn't be suspended

(frank) the board of discipline

How bout Cody Hodgson and all those points

Lindy is lame

Oh man why cant we get help from other teams?

Kaleta sucks

And their defense would ensure he never sees a championship again.

Denver is his best bet IMO
