    Not going to act like I watched the game but he had 100 yards with a TD rushing and 100 recieving and completed a pass and averaged 5 ypc vs Montana State.  The biggest bonus is his size and pass catching.


    He made it happen for sure but it was a few big plays. He would be a fun camp body.

    Not necessarily sure he's on the Bills radar but a UDFA guy who could help a team would be Lan Larison.  His 40 time aside he ran for almost 1,500 yards, had 850 yards recieving, and scored 23 TD's.  Threw some passes, made a few tackles, what else could you ask for?

     


    I went to UC Davis and went to a few games this year. Dude was their entire offense. Nice, fun player. Worth a sniff, but when they played higher level comp like Montana State it was much tougher sledding.

    What are your NFL Draft Night Plans?

    I've been going to the draft since 2001, and haven't missed one since, minus the covid year.

     

    During the downtime I mostly just talk to other fans. I ask them who they want, and we just go back-and-forth on other players available. Just a bunch of people talking about football, it's great. 

    I don't really get any information. They used to give us little radio earpieces to listen to the ESPN & NFL Network coverages, but that changed a few years back. 
    Now we have to sit and be forced to listen to our hosts on the stage or whatever local band is playing. 

    Which is terrible because the hosts offer almost no insight.
    I get that they are trying to keep the masses entertained and not indulge the fans like me, who actually care about the draft.

     

    Nevertheless, I still have fun, although I really miss the draft being a two day event centered around Saturday & Sunday. Now I have to ask for more time off from work.
    I've never been to Green Bay, so this will be an experience, and I also get to hang out with my other diehard draftniks who have been going to the draft even longer than I have.

    @CowgirlsFan will be joining me as well. She's been going with me ever since the 2018 draft in Dallas(Arlington).

     

    It would be a lot of fun if the draft went to Buffalo. I know that next year is in Pittsburgh, after that, I don't know.

     

    and he gets to hang out with me. I'll be there too. This will be my 7th and it's a blast. First two nights are one big party. Day 3 is a slog but still fun and very much for draftnicks.

    Week 8 - Bills at Seahawks Game Week Thread

    I haven’t read this whole thread, but does anyone remember what happened the last time the bills came to Seattle? It was 2017 I think. I was at the game. It was one of the most poorly officiated games I can remember.


    It was 2016. Dan Carpenter got harpooned and Woods was held in the end zone on the final play. I kicked the seat in front of me when there was no flag and we lost. Dummy Hawks fan still had a full tall can and it flew in the air and rained beer over the section.

    Agree with those thinking that this being at the stadium wouldn't make a lot of sense.

    It needs to be within walking distance of a lot of other things to do. Doesn't seem like there are a lot of people just sitting in the "theater" watching all the picks on day 2 and day 3. That needs to be the type of thing people can wander in and out of.

     

    A stage somewhere around Canalside seems like the best bet for a successful event.

     

    The Dallas draft was the worst of the recent drafts for that very reason. It was at the stadium and all they had were some things happening around the stadium grounds. Nothing to do there whatsoever unless you had actual tickets to the draft theater (stadium). There's no way they would have it at the stadium given how they have structured recent drafts. Canalside or Niagara Square would be the likely spot IMO.

    Likely there would me events at different places like the Olympics does for picked cities.

    It usually all central. In KC and Vegas, for example, there was nothing at the stadiums. Same with Detroit, and Ford Field was actually somewhat walkable from the draft stage. Tennessee did have the draft experience around Nissan, but that was just over the bridge from downtown- not a drive out to OP.
