  1. Jordan: "Hanes, it's Michael. Just got some great inspiration for our next new product. What do you think about the Hanes Brassiere for Men? I might even have a lead on a new spokesman!"
  2. 1. Jameis Winston - Tampa Bay 2. Marcus Mariota - Tennessee 3. Amari Cooper - Jacksonville 4. Todd Gurley - Minnesota 5. Brett Hundley - New York Jets Bonus: Carl Davis - DT, Iowa
  3. You do know that Harvin's first name is Percy, right?
  4. Torell Troup is on the list! I've heard of him!
  5. The OP said he would draft the first QB taken after the Bills' draft pick. So the first QB taken after Buffalo's first round pick was Drew Brees, which happened to be in the 2nd round.
  6. Just to play off what MRW said: Since there was a delay of game in the Lions game for the field goal attempt, there are only two outcomes: 1) Accept the penalty and the Lions retry from 5 yards further back, and 2) Decline the penalty and the Lions retry from the same spot. So technically you could decline it, but since the Lions get to retry the field goal either way (since the delay of game results in a dead ball....the fact that the kicker still kicked the ball is irrelevant), you would obviously always accept to push them back 5 yards. When receiving a punt, you don't want to give the punter more room so you decline the penalty to make them punt from the same spot.
  7. We just need to put our best foot forward. I'm sure we'll land on our feet.
  8. This would be a solid start to one of those Hitler videos...
  9. Absolutely go to McFadden's on N. 3rd St. It's the official Bills Bar of Philly, and has a great turnout early in the year. Blue on draft, Blue Light bottles, garbage plates, wings, etc.
  10. ....and none of them will probably make the team. Haha, beaten to the punch. Great minds think alike?
  11. Sorry, this thread just really made me laugh. Well done.
  12. 1. Johnny Manziel - Jacksonville 2. Jadeveon Clowney - Houston 3. Blake Bortles - Minnesota 4. Khalil Mack - Atlanta 5. Mike Evans - Detroit
  13. What, no long snapper? By the way, +1 on Nikita Whitlock. The guy was a beast when Wake played Cuse this season.
  14. I highly doubt Eric Wood catches 4 TD passes this year
  15. I was just listening to NFL radio on SiriusXM and they mentioned that Smith had a wish list of 5 teams to which he was willing to be traded (I don't think they said all 5 teams, but I believe it included the Patriots and Tampa Bay). Obviously the trade didn't work out. Regardless, Smith wouldn't come to Buffalo, and I'm not sure why some of you are interested in bringing in a guy with maybe 2 years left in the tank to a rebuilding team that is likely not going anywhere next year. This is the kind of guy a contender picks up on the cheap for a one or two year rental in the hopes he can help bring them a Super Bowl. I can see a team like the Patriots picking him up...but I have been reading a lot about the Ravens being interested. I can see that happening too.
  16. I'm sure the OP was talking about Kiko, even though he doesn't have the lowest grade like he said. Also, the author of that article lost all credibility when saying Robert Woods went to Notre Dame.
  17. There is no way Carpenter signs with the Bills for any kind of team-friendly/minimal guarantee deal, and he's not going to sign with us if he thinks he has to battle Hopkins in training camp. He played so well last season that some team will make him a good offer to come in and be the guy, so we will need to do the same if we want to keep him. Ultimately, I think the Bills will go with Hopkins because it will be more cost-effective, he's got the stronger leg, and because kicker performance can vary so much from year to year, so we don't know that Carpenter would be any better than Hopkins next year. I'd be happy with either one, and I truly do appreciate the performance Carpenter gave us last season, but I won't be too phased either way.
  18. FYI, Ebron measured in today at the Combine at 6 foot 4 & 3/8ths, 250 lb
  19. I think saying that "good upstairs people" can figure out salary cap issues is a convenient excuse to help people justify the personnel decisions that they'd like to see the team make. Salary cap isn't something that can be swept under the rug. Every move has dependencies and ramifications on every other move you can make, and it all has to work long-term under the context of the salary cap. I of course agree that we need to keep as many good players as we can, but always with the caveat that it has to make sense with the overall plan. I also don't believe you can isolate a single decision (about Byrd....albeit a big decision) and claim that if it doesn't go the way you want, then it must mean the Bills don't care about building a winning team. That's just ridiculous. This isn't a personal attack at you...more like a strong difference of opinion...so I hope it doesn't come off that way. I want the Bills to win as badly as you do. It can be really difficult as fans when we don't truly have insight into a team's plans, and when you lose all the time, every single move is going to be painstakingly scrutinized -- which is why we're currently in this offseason topic hell. (For the record, I'd like to see the Bills re-sign Byrd long-term, even if it means Top 5 safety money)
