Hello, my name is Louis Traino and I'm a junior at Rush-Henrietta. This blog will be focused on all things Buffalo Bills.
Coming off of a disappointing 6-10 season, the Bills missed the playoffs for the 10th consecutive year and officially haven't made it to the post-season in a decade. Despite the hype the Bills received after making the flashy move of bringing in future hall of fame wide receiver Terrell Owens, it was another season full of heartbreaks; none worse than the Monday Night opener in which a last minute collapse cost the Bills a long overdue victory against the rival Patriots.
The season wasn't all bad though. Victories over the Dolphins and the Jets made Buffalo's division record this year 2-4. While there is still room for plenty of improvement, this is undoubtedly far better than going winless in your division as they did last year.
Buffalo also fired their disappointing head coach Dick Jauron on November 17th after a loss to the Tennessee Titans which officially eliminated them from playoff contention. Now, with big names in the coaching world like Bill Cowher and Tony Dungy, who knows who will takeover as the head coach of the Bills.
While the season ended on a high note with a 30-7 victory over the 14-2 Indianapolis Colts, it ultimately may have set the Bills back as they now have the 9th selection in the NFL Draft this April when they could have been drafting as high as 6th with a loss to the Colts. While it may not seem like a big deal, this means it will be another year of missing out on the elite draft prospects and instead getting the 2nd tier rookies.
Where should the Bills go in the draft? Should they chase top LB prospect Orlando McClain in an effort to sharpen up their dead last ranking in rush defense?
Look into trading up for one of the most promising prospect in years in DT Ndamukong Suh?
Try to sharpen up the offensive-line by drafting the top LT prospect Russell Okung?
Get some stability at the Quarterback position by going after top prospects Sam Bradford and Jimmy Clauson?
In due time all of our questions will be answered and I'll be there along the way looking to keep you informed.
Now it's the offseason and I'll be here to keep you in the know about the head-coaching search, any notable Free Agents the Bills are pursuing, and college prospects I feel the Bills should look into drafting so the 2010-2011 season can be a better one than the 2009-2010 season was.

Louis the bills can't trade up to that d-tackle (can't remember his name too long). The bills should at the 9th pick chose the best player avalible. If that's picking a linebacker. Fine. Quarterback. ok. Offensive tackle. That's fine too. I don't think that the bills lost anything after there last win. They would still had the 9th or tenth pick. Don't get me started on the Monday Night miracle. I can only watch up to that on the highlight reel. (I can say what happen I would cry. It was still fun though seeing the pats get destroyed by the ravens.
ReplyDeleteLouis and Patsy..... You guys should just forget all about the Bills and focus your time on the Jets now and start to jump on the bandwagon. Just face it the Bills won't make the playoffs for another 100 years, they have the worst luck in games and their top draft choices never seem to perform.
