The Jets are probably rolling the dice to see if Maybin can be slavaged. I think the Jets saw enough of Gholston over the two years of Rex Ryan's tenure to know he was not going to work out for them.

By the way, the next sack that Gholston records will be his first...

Has Maybin recorded a sack at all? I wonder who will get the first sack out of those two.

So what is it? Orakpo 18.5 - Maybin 0?

Very questionable management in Buffalo. I realize they have trouble attracting FA's due to their location but the draft picks are the ones that bother me the most.

Buffalo has drafted horrifically since the middle of the decade. It's frightening really. The Redskins still lack young potential superstars at most levels of the team but they've done twice as much in the draft as Buffalo has with half as many picks.

The Bills have actually done quite well building their team through other means though. Fitzpatrick. Jackson. The guy who is going to be their no. 2 this year (his name escapes me). Florence. George Wilson. Merriman. That's a good amount of talent they have there (more than us, methinks) with some of the most inept drafting I've ever seen in my life. Maybin over Orakpo was a marketing-driven decision on draft day, taking the guy who played college ball locally over the better player.

When did they move State College to upstate NY?

Dude you have a lot of knowledge but sometimes you really sling the BS.

Penn State is hella more local to Buffalo than Texas is. Gotta think there's a good base of fandom in NY for Penn St. Texas??? Not so much.
