Joe from NYC Blog: While the Bills increase in value, it may decrease the team's chances of staying
"Anyways, my original point is that while the value of the team increases, it decreases the chances for the Bills to find a buyer for the team to stay in Buffalo. Excuse me for sounding morbid, but if Wilson lives for another 5-10 years, the price tag of the Bills may go up to a cool billion dollars. Sorry, but how many companies or people in Buffalo can afford that?"

that New GM article from bleacher report was pretty cool. picking four out of those sixteen was pretty tough.

out of mccargo, joique bell, stupar, roosevelt, hennessey, harvey, coleman, lankster, corto, simpson, david nelson, jackson, ellis, ellison, sargeant, and harris, i picked:

harvey (kind of have to, i guess)
coleman (depth at a position of need)
lankster or sargeant (injuries always hit this position)
roosevelt or nelson (figure the bills keep evans, parrish, easley, scuba steve, and hardy beyond that).

of course, you can stash players like bell, harris, and whichever you don’t pick of the players i listed on the PS, so it’s not that bad.

I have to do a second part on my BUFFALO BILLS against the Miami phinis tuna whales stinky salmon fishy stonko

i didn't read who you picked before making my choices

but also would keep harvey, coleman, and lankster. the defensive side has the more obvious “roles of need” mapped out, namely OLB and NT. And you can always use good CB depth. my other three candidates for the fourth spot are J. Bell, Roosevelt, and Nic Harris. Since my first three picks were defensive I crossed off Harris (he doesn’t still have PS eligibilty though, does he?). I’m actually hoping that Roosevelt can step up and take Roscoe’s roster spot as the token tiny receiver, so that leaves Bell. I like Bell. Can’t keep 4 running backs? Whatev. Spiller’s probably gonna be all over the field anyway, so Bell can stay as “true RB#3” and get put to use on special teams too.
