May Day 10

This is a different time. A few years back, going to games it was obvious the other team just had far superior athletes. They just were incapable of coming up big and winning games against any good teams. Now I would say the Bills have better athletes than many teams and that includes all 3 in their division.

Was really hoping for a player in return

I don't really like it either but I love watkins and with watkins there is no way around this. Williams on the other hand... I dunno. But good for stevie.

Good for stevie. Good luck. Good for the cap and possibly team sanity. Got the 4th back.

Im normally very negative when it comes to the Bills, but I love this. I cant wrap my head around why/how so many are down on it.

I also did lol at the guy(s) who loved the Pats' pick of a DT with 2 torn ACLs

it seems like they are all planning on the Bills to yield a high pick in 2015 (and they could be right). If the Bills are a playoff team, the Bills should come out considerably ahead in this

you cant really hate the move until you: Know where the Bills fall in the 2015 draft order, and also see the players available at that spot. It is kind of a gamble. The Bills are betting on themselves to be decent which I like. I think its time we get over the defeatist attitude as well. Watkins seems like an extremely safe pick with a very high ceiling. Very happy getting him and he adds a lot of octane into the offense. Also has the Clemson connection (and ACC Connection) with a few players which maybe can help gel. There are also 2 "side affects". 1. I wont have to root against the Bills in any way this season for draft spot. 2. We wont have to hear as much draft hype on WGR, etc for months on end when they move the draft to the end of May next year

Van Noy?

I almost made the same thread but worried I would get scolded. I would say 4th round, definitely consider it.

if they are all healthy its going to be an absolute nightmare for defenses. No matter what you think of Manuel.

and thats when you screen it to Watkins and Spiller (and Goodwin)

I dont think the memories/legacies will be that long. The whole Mangini thing and the Sanchez trade didnt really stick. Buffalo and Cleveland are linked mostly because we are close, similar cities and are football teams stink enough year after year to play each other regularly

Tajh Boyd in the 4th? Get the band back together

Im shocked that so many people hate this. Im as negative/down/skeptical about the Bills and management as anybody... and I feel like this is the greatest thing they have done in years, and I feel like they got a steal. (as long as the #1 isnt in the top 5 or 10). Watkins is going to be a superstar.

I think its a steal. The Bills will not be a low pick next year. Mid to late 1st rounders are well worth what they are getting in Watkins. The drop from the best 4-6 players to who the Bills would get is very sharp.

Best player in the draft

I disagree. I think 1st rounders are very overrated in the nfl at this point. You definitely don't want to squander them and repeatedly... but getting a coup for watkins is absolutely worth a 9th and gambling/hoping the bills are a 16 to 32 next year

I'm all in on watkins. Trade the farm

I disagree his comments necessarily allude to a new structure, eliminating a large-scale reno,

your post makes me doubt you have ever been to Western New York

Yes. It is a good show. It is fairly well planned and they touch on all things. Bisons, Bandits, UB/Local NCAA Sports, MLB, NBA, Sabres, Bills, other teams in NFL/NHL (OMG!) you name it. Bull is a good host. He puts a ton of effort in. His cohorts' deliveries are a bit rough. Bull gets a bit pukey/disk jockey sounding sometimes during interviews which can be a bit embarrassing... but overall, the show is such a breath of fresh air over the nonsense tunnel vision on WGR. Im not even so sure its the hosts as much as it is the Program Manager(s) there

I only listen because its the only game in town. Even with that, Im starting to tune it out. It is the same topic/conversation over and over and over again. I cant take it. The Fan 1270 Show with Bull is 200x better than anything on WGR (excluding Murphy).

Oh yeah. Saw isn't bad. He doesn't try to play an expert... just a fan with a show. Good listen. Art Wander had the greatest shtick

i didnt realize Buscaglia was a contest winner.... I just recognize that he really has a huge interest in what he is covering, he immerses himself in video and information, and delivers intel. Maybe his delivery isnt refined yet, and he may not have the guts to speak with conviction on predictions and speculation... but I see the work he puts in as opposed to all the other hosts who are open about how they couldnt be bothered even watching anything besides the Bills and Sabres... and even that they just skim the surface less than the average fan does
