32 GM's calling one another.... Q: what do you want for pick # _______ ? A: what are you offering you first, no you first

i'm in 202......expecting a call in 2025

several players in this mock still avail consensus rated higher than Thomas mitchell, chop robinson, Arnold, Latham, Fautanu, DeJean

all the QB needy teams are a total wild card NYG, MIN, DEN, LV it's going to be fun........just waiting for the bills logo to pop up.......we have a trade.....lol

if tyreek hill ran 4.4 instead of 4.29 would he still be called cheetah ? but to answer your question..... without that 4.21 speed ...worthy would NOT be regarded as a 1st round wr. speed kills.....but lots of fast guys never make it in the nfl.

these WR will likely be there at #28: Adonai Mitchell Xavier Worthy Ladd McConkey Early 2nd round: Xavier Legette Troy Franklin Keon Coleman JaLynn Polk funny thing is, if KC picks any of them at #32 they will be praised. if Buffalo picked that same player at #28 they will have reached

The Giving Pledge is a charitable campaign, founded by Bill Gates and Warren Buffett, to encourage wealthy people to contribute a majority (i.e. more than 50%) of their wealth to philanthropic causes. As of June 2022, the pledge has had 236 signatories from 28 countries https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Giving_Pledge

while i agree there is a need......it's not getting done thru this years draft alone. the perceived holes should be filled with cheap veterans. we have 5 premium picks between this year and next ( 2024 1st & 2nd and 2025 1st and two 2nd's) we need to keep them all. first priority is WR1 this year.....with 6-7 wr's with a first round grade, it shouldn't be a problem. moving up from #28 just a couple spots only using our extra 4th & 5th's is all i would do. mortgaging those future premium picks to move up into this years top 10 is foolish.

left wing lock

nothing last forever....but the bills will remain in WNY for a very long time.....stop fretting and in the unlikely event some new owner after the pegulas, winds up moving the team.....i will still cheer for them. it'll be a sad day....but life and wealth roll on. my enjoyment of the Bills and NFL football will never wane.

bravo.....well done

does a pass completed to an opposing player count ?...... NO ?!?!? ..... dang it, i had a feeling you would say that ok...ok.....in 4 quarters.....lets assume (correctly) i'm going 3 and out on every possession and my defense is average. thats 6 possessions/game X 3 passes = 18 total passes in the game. my strategy would be to chuck the ball (the moment i catch the snap, quickest release in the league) as far as i could (15 yards) in the general vacinity of kincaid and knox (no way i could reach a WR) of those 18 prayers.....kincaid grabs 2 and knox 1 Final Answer 3 P.S. this assumes my Oline keeps me clean. first contact by defense, of any kind, i'm going down and staying down. get the stretcher.

"who gave the order?" https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/the-bills-needed-new-york-states-approval-for-their-psl-rollout-but-who-actually-approved-it/ar-BB1lyBtk

where theres smoke theres fire?? maybe the pegulas initial thought to raise capital was to sell 100% of everything but the bills. then after a few feelers, realized what you are saying was true. word of that leaked fast. but pegula doesnt want to hurt wny so he switched to the 25% bills.

if the new stadium seats 63k and they hold back 10% for individual sale. that leaves 57k for PSL & STH one way or another....they are selling out all 57k

PSL's are expected to raise $100-200 million the cost over runs of the new stadium are already $300 mil and likely rising to as much as $600 mil or more irregardless of the PSL success, that doesn't cover the significant cash he needs for the stadium cost over runs

not to my way of thinking but the sample size is small.....it was reported that 75% of the account holders who went thru the "experience" signed up for the new stadium PSL & tix. but that was all the more affluent club seat holders. also, that doesn't factor in how many of the 25% who didn't, will purchase in a lower price area on their 2nd chance. the real test comes when they move to the lower bowl with the so called average joes

that source is unverified and has been since refuted: The team issued this statement Friday afternoon: "The Pegula family has retained Allen & Company to explore the potential sale of a non-controlling, minority interest in the Bills. These discussions only involve the Bills and no other team. No investment would be possible without Terry Pegula and the Pegula family maintaining a controlling interest in the team. Their continued commitment to Western New York, the new Highmark Stadium, our fans, and the other teams in their portfolio remains unchanged. Neither the team nor the Pegula family are able to comment further at this point.” https://www.wgrz.com/article/sports/nfl/bills/buffalo-bills-selling-part-team/71-67d86977-6a46-4e1c-a2ec-29ab43a30d8a

Under the G4 program rules, Bills owners Terry and Kim Pegula would be required to put up matching dollars which would increase the private funding to at least $400 million for the new stadium. https://apnews.com/article/kathy-hochul-buffalo-bills-nfl-business-sports-5c1d8f41c66fc2116fe852a9c16e717d Owners created a successor to the G-4 stadium financing program this week, allowing teams to continue to borrow from the NFL to build or renovate stadiums. Final approval of the G-5 edition had emerged as an urgent matter with major construction projects popping up around the league and the current program at capacity. It will broadly resemble prior generations, with bigger numbers and some tweaks. Each team will be able to tap up to $300 million -- up from G4's $200 million ceiling -- for construction/renovations from the league if they match that with their own money and get some degree of government assistance (purely private projects are not eligible). It comes in three tranches of $100 million each, with different conditions for each bucket. Teams repay the loans partly by using funds that would normally be subject to revenue sharing. https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Articles/2023/12/14/nfl-g5-program

is josh healthy ? if yes.....big chance if no......NO chance

initial cost estimate of new stadium $1.4 Billion current cost estimate of new stadium $1.7 Billion likely final cost estimate of new stadium $2.0 Billion NY State Contribution $600 million (not part of "construction costs" is an additional $280 million for maintenance over 30 years) NFL & Bills Contribution $550 million (Pegula's portion is $350 million) Erie County Contribution $250 million SUB TOTAL Contribution $1.4 Billion Pegulas are responsible for any and all cost over runs....currently at $300 million and rising. Projected to raise $200 million in PSL's so, if you factor in cost over runs....i say he will pay $750 million or +35% of his own money

a minority stake improves your chances on a path to majority stake

5% of $3 Billion is $150 mil.... mark me down as skeptical this collective forum has that cash
