Honestly. Everyone should boycott the PSLs. Need to send a message. Die hard fans shouldn't have to take out a mortgage for season tickets. That's insane.

I do not hate Pegula that’s ridiculous. Just think there is way too much politician to him. -
Lance Zierlein: Bills should draft 2 WR in the first 3 rounds
H2o replied to Beck Water's topic in The Stadium Wall
I don't really worry about all of the measurements when it comes to people making plays. If a guy can shake his defender, and Josh can throw an accurate ball, then the length of a ring finger added to an arm isn't that much of a difference. I think people get too caught up on the measurement of every arm, toe, and eyelash. I don't think that small of a talking point is truly relevant if the guy is a twitchy, solid route runner with excellent hands. I do think our WR situation pushes Shakir to the outside more often than previously seen, but I think this year will be more of a committee than in years before as well. I understand Davis and Samuel are different people, with different responsibilities. I just think that Brady will be able to utilize Samuel better than anyone else has and that Josh will be the best QB he's ever had slinging him the rock. I think that Samuel will see career highs in this offense if he stays healthy. I'm still all for drafting two WR's. Legette and Corley. Legette and Walker. Legette and Rice. Legette and McCaffrey. Mitchell and Corley. Mitchell and Walker. Mitchell and Rice. Mitchell and McCaffrey. Franklin and another guy. Worthy and whoever. We just need to make sure JA17 has some quality options at WR outside of the ones we have now. -
Leggette is a real wildcard. Brugler has a 3rd on him, but with the caveat that if a team looks at his tape and sees DK Metcalf they might use a 1. Roman Wilson, I do like him, I just view him as a duplication of skills to Shakir in how you'd have to deploy him, i.e. mainly from the slot. The Bills already have the proven commodity there, that's not the hole on their WR corps. There's a scenario and I think it's likely where you get 5 or more WR getting tabbed before 28, in which case you'd likely have a QB or 2 (Penix, Nix) dropping to the bottom of Round 1, and there's incentive for a team to pack a few picks to jump up for 1) their QB and 2) the 5th year option in case the QB hits. Or, maybe there's an OT run and a team has just one guy left they are interested in and wants to lock it up. On the Rich Hill charts, the following teams are well positioned to offer proper value to move up to 28: 1) LV with #44, #77, #112 (there ain't a QB who's there at 13 who's worth it, but they're the Raiders, who knows) 2) ATL with #43, #74, #79 (boy I'd love this one) 3) CAR with #33, #39, #65, #101 (if they don't believe in Bryce Young, and they shouldn't) 4) WAS with #36, #40, #67 and #78 (if they don't go QB at #2) 5) NE at #34 and #68 (if they go MHJ at #3)

A visual argument against trading down & for trading up
Beck Water replied to transplantbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Really good finds, Thanks. I'm not sure I 100% buy pro-bowls as a great metric now-a-days when it seems to have become some kind of popularity contest. What it comes down to is opportunity cost, and I'm not invested enough to fully lay this out as a mathematical problem but here are the trade offs: On the one hand: You improve your chances of landing "The Man" from 33/100 to 55/100 moving up from pick 28 to pick 10 so 22%. Against that you set that Pick 10 ~1300 and Pick 28 ~660 so you need to essentially provide the equivalent of 640 points. Since next year's picks devalue about a round, that might be next year's 1st PLUS this year's 2nd (300). That represents 2 talented players (1 next year, 1 this) who can help fill other team needs on a cost-controlled basis. Meanwhile, even in the top-10 picks, there's still a 45/100 chance you won't pick The Man, but now you've not fizzed there, but you've lost your chance to reload and fire again. -

Nextmanup replied to Roundybout's topic in The Stadium Wall
It's entirely possible he has rethought his position with owning the Bills and Sabres due to his wife's health. I still think this is a weird move; wanting to transition to a different stage of life without the burden of these teams is one thing, but why sell 25% of it? Is he hurting for cash and needs some liquidity? Why? The funny thing is that for the last several years, their actions with regard to the Sabres could be viewed as preparatory steps to selling the franchise. They had things stripped pretty clean at one point. -

ridiculous take the Bills gave up top level draft assets to trade up for Josh Allen who has never won a super bowl i suppose you'd call that a mistake -

Beck Water replied to transplantbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall
While it's pretty much a given that Beane is going to know all this and more....it doesn't follow that because he has 20 1st round grades, he needs to trade up, right? You can bet on it that different teams have different players with 1st round grades. So the chances are very high that all through the 1st round, a player the Bills have a 1st round grade on will be available. Now that said....I don't believe that any GM is truly a "best player available" guy with no concern for the valuation of different positions AND the specific holes on his team. -

the team is not leaving he has a cash flow issue to pay for stadium cost over runs...likely north of $600 mil -
Alphadawg you’re one of my favorite posters but Shakir emerged end of last season. He was the best weapon in most of the final regular season games and definitely against KC in the divisional game. The guy catches everything and gets better at the end of games. The Bills don’t pull the trigger on the Diggs deal without confidence that Shakir, Samuel and Kincaid can carry load with 1st rounder being the vertical threat.

Lance Zierlein: Bills should draft 2 WR in the first 3 rounds
billsfan89 replied to Beck Water's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think they likely view Shakir and Samuel splitting time at the slot and outside. Just my two cents but I don't think they are going to use Shakir or Samuel as a WR4 and draft two WR's picks 28 and 60 to play most of the boundary snaps. Shakir is simply too good to not be a primary slot WR and I doubt an organization like the Bills are going to pay Samuel 8-10 million a season for 3 years to be a gadget WR4. It would be insanely foolish to spend so much money on a Deonte Harty replacement. I do think they are going WR at or around pick 28 to have a WR that's going primarily to play on the boundary while Shakir and Samuel split the other boundary snaps. -

Yeah,,. Just kidding … he has said this before though right ? -
In the playoffs, Kelce went 32 catches on 37 targets for 355 yards and 3 TDs. He elevated his game because he is still absolutely a top 20 receiving threat in the league. His regular season wasn't great, but he turned it on when he needed to. Just like most Chief's players did. I dont disagree that Allen will likely have 4,100+ yards to end the year. I'm just thinking, when the playoffs come around, can our talent at the WR/TE positions elevate like a Kelce can?
