You can't have competitive swimming and hockey without facilities and those are few and far between in American urban centers where there's the highest concentration of minorities.

Genetically, whites are better at cheating, back door dealings and manipulating the system.... (see the illuminati, mafia, free masons, conventional American politics etc) /sarcasm

The article won't help any future lawsuit, as Joe admits that he's informed of the potential consequences and has made the active decision that the reward is worth the risk.

Take him day 2 no questions asked..

McCoy - $8,875,000 DiMarco - $1,850,000 Tolbert - $695,000 Williams - $600,228 They're not going to pay another $4 million this year to a backup RB, no matter how productive he was last season. Take the draft pick, pick someone else to compete with Williams at a cost less than 25% of what MG would be due, and move on...

RB is about the easiest position to fill.... I'd take a 1st for Hughes, but I wouldn't blow it on a RB

Pat's official injury report still shows "A. Hernandez: Questionable with a neck"

Kaep only works as a Bills backup if we think this is a "win now" team. Ideally you want your backup to have a similar skill set as your starter so the transition isn't catastrophic in the event of an injury. That said, if you think having a QB with pocket skills is a necessity, do you really want both guys in front of your "development project" to share similar bad habits. If Tyrod is a place holder, I'd rather have a backup that can help develop Cardale or (QB to be drafted).

I remember when Brandon Pettigrew was that guy.... and when Eric Ebron was that guy... and when Dustin Keller was that guy

Mixon will get drafted, and I'm betting well before the end of the third. I honestly think there's a small chance he could go in the late first to a team like Green Bay or Oakland that needs RB and questions whether he'll make it to their second round selection. Based on that thought process - I don't see a scenario where the Bills take him. If after we picked a WR, S, CB, OL (not necessarily in that order) he was still on the board, I wouldn't hesitate to take him.with a 5th.

Stating EJ Manuel is the worst just shows recency bias. That year was absolutely brutal at QB in hindsight. We were at 8, traded back to 16, got the top QB on our board and a pick that later became Kiko Alonso. From the last 20 years: "Obvious - not Monday morning QB - F#ck-ups" Mike Williams at #4 when Bryant McKinnie should have been the pick. Donte Whitner at #8 when Ngata should have been the pick Aaron Maybin at at #11 when Orakpo should have been the pick "Misses" John McCargo #26 CJ Spiller at #9 - we had RB depth at the time, but some loved the pick at the time

Lets be honest... our RBs are good compared to our QBs - it's like lusting after a 7 because she's with a pack of 3's and it's closing time.

The price paid for Watkins is a non-factor in this decision... it is a sunk cost. If the front office determines that WR provides the best value in relation to need, you go for it without looking back. Looking at need vs player rankings, I think Lattimore, Adams or Hooker represent more potential wins, but it's doubtful any are available at 10. Assuming they haven't given up hope on Jones, I think they look at WR (Davis or Williams) or CB (Conley, Jones).

Justin Hunter hasn't signed anywhere yet, right? He seemed to have some chemistry with Tyrod and is a legitimate WR3, while we seem to be signing WR4 and WR5 types. If we end up with Davis or Williams in the draft, a WR core of Watkins, Davis/Williams and Hunter is a big upgrade over last season. Claibourne is an option at CB. Cruz is not a viable option based upon last season in my opinion.

There's absolutely no reason to trade up.

If the Pats somehow turn Butler into Gillmore and a 1st, I'll call "the fix is in"... It'd be like turning a backup QB and the last pick of the first round into the first overall pick and Bradin Cooks...

Where's Pegula's jet? It doesn't seem to be getting much use this off season, so maybe its available?

+++++

Cordarelle Patterson could be more than JAG WR3. If he's cheap, he's a direction I'd look. He just strikes me as a Doug Whaley type "redemption" project.

Call Doug with your hot take before it is too late!

IN

At the price and terms reported, i'm in favor... at the price he's more affordable than most "bridge" QBs that they could have signed, and he actually gives you a chance to be competitive now.

For what it's worth... maybe the mole at One Bills Drive is gone now.

I enjoy mowing my lawn - there's nothing a like a cold beer immediately following - but since having kids, I pay someone else to do it now. I work a healthy amount of hours, and I found that I was having to mow in the evening or first thing on the weekends. I started to resent having to mow rather than spending that time with my kids, who I may only see a couple of non sleeping hours a day as it is. We also hired someone to come in and clean the house every other week (dusting, mopping, etc). Combined the services cost us less than $200/month and frees us both from a lot of stress. It's well worth it in my opinion.

Is there an option for a sign and trade?
