Spikes tade to leave a hole in the defense
I first must appolagize to all of you reading. I have started recently a new business, and over slept yesterday.
With the Buffalo Bills being close to trading linebacker Takeo Spikes, one has to wonder how are they going to fill the hole left. The thing is that the most likely conclusion is a rookie, or a over the hill person.
The last thing that Bills fans wanted to see is another Eddie Robinson. The fact being that they have not revealed a comprehensive sign on how they are going to replace Spikes is scary. The are not many good players on the free agent market. After Spikes the only real name out in the market is Al Wilson from the Denver Broncos, but he is not physically able to perform.
The likely replacment will be a first rounder. That is a problem. The Bills will have to trade up possibly for someone, and that is ridiculous. They sit there at one Bills drive, and complain that there is no money. Then go out there an over spend to the point that they have to trade potentially one of their best players. Does this sound ass backwards to anyone else.
To strenthen the offensive line the Bills weakened their defense. Unless the Bills all of a sudden reinvent the K-Gun it is going to be a long season. On top of that Losman is going to have to consistently air it out, and will become the scapegoat of their problems.
The best way to help an offense is by becoming better defensively. They were one of the worst against the run, and unless John Mckargo and Kyle Williams step it up big time the Bills could be one of the worst teams in the league. If that happens hopefully they get the first pick in the draft, and actually use it. However, knowing how cheap they are uncle Ralphie might make them trade down.
There is no way to describe it better than the Bills situation then using a Tango and Cash movie line. F.U.B.A.R. What is next they going to get rid of Aaron Schobel and Lee Evans too.
