  1. Here is my perspective and I think I am part of a silent minority (of white dudes) -Black lives do matter -Watching Floyd be killed by the police was horrible, and eye opening to the fact that there is injustice and rightful condemnation -Protests came and I sympathized Then things got weird -Statues torn down?? -Can't debate or disagree?? -Looting?? Blocking highways and part of Seattle?? -People fired for posts not completely in line with current thought?? Would prefer a better compromise for people getting their thoughts in and having preaching jammed in my face. I'll still watch football, but I'm not liking the one sided reports on social media and the news
  2. Hard Pass on him 1) He has a poor injury history 2) I like our backfield tandem 3) The $$. Don't want to tie up too much cap room in a running back- we have got some ducats to shell out soon for some of our own players
  3. Exactly- all this focus on the the refs is a waste of time. Just about half of everyone will be pissed on every call, and half will be happy
  4. For Pete's sake relax. 1) He got pulled over for dwi while at age 22. Could have happened to almost anyone, except maybe some judgmental choir boys 2) It's Texas, not crappy New York. Gun laws are easier, and it's common for regular people to have them on them. Also, up to a few years ago open container beers were actually allowed while driving! 3) He didn't hurt anyone, punch a woman, jump out of a hotel room screaming naked etc. Just...relax
  5. I heard they had 180+ live cameras they were juggling. Draft was pulled off great- sure some more Bills coverage would have been cool but overall awesome
  6. I Don't want anything to with that contract PLUS having to trade a premium pick
  7. This- you may not agree with his opinions, but no need to criticize the guy. Brandt has more information, contacts, perspective and history than most anyone
  8. He's just too hostile as a tv commentator. I understand he was a small guy who played well with a chip on his shoulder, but this hasn't translated well to tv
  9. Awful idea to: Give up any more premium picks Trade for 32 year old player Trade for players who have agents asking publicly for trades Trade for players who are asking for 15-20 million per year
  10. Interesting but I am firmly against trading up, particularly for a WR in a very deep draft
  11. Absolutely. A top flight back to pair with Singletary is the single best thing we could do for the offense- less throwing is better for Bills at this point Gordon has average numbers and will be too expensive
  12. I would be very surprised if the Bills signed any very expensive, top 10 at their position contracts. They seem to be smarter than this. Draft well, and fill holes with targeted free agents with reasonable contracts.
  13. What in the world is this thread about? I have been coming to this board for many years to catch up on Bills news. I live thousands of miles away and it consolidates articles, news and some opinions. I like the updates on training camp and hearing from folks who went to the game. This site has some whackos who create nonsense, but I ignore them. If you are getting moderated or censored, look in the mirror.
  14. I wouldn't pay that much for him for a 1 year rental. He does't seem to fit into our culture- fighting with coaches, driving the bus over every qb in the nfl and pulling into camp in a brinks truck Also he is going to want a FORTUNE come contract time, and I'd rather see the $$ go to Tre D
  15. They saved like 4 million on the cap- they likely need it for a new deal with their LT
  16. No thanks- he wants too much for an RB- we just got out of cap hell
  17. Sills signing is great! Would have been h appy to get him in the 5th-- but as a UDFA... Awesome!
  18. I'm thinking the Bills are done trading up. Seems generally only a good idea to do so for a QB. They have stated they want to build through the draft and we have very few home grown drafted players on the roster. I have nightmares still about the Sammy Watkins deal- let's stand pat or move down
  19. She's as qualified as any analytics dude to talk football. She definitely has some predictions correct. She also happens to be fantastic looking which helps the mostly male audience at NFLN. I like here and I like Warren Sharpe- they bring some new information to the table, unlike some of those dopey ex players they trot out there.
  20. I hope the league survives but my interest level is...meh... Tried to watch the local Arizona team on TV, but it becomes more of a go back channel thing than an interesting watch Team plays 15 minutes down the road, but I haven't even considered going and don't know anyone who has. I wonder what their attendance figures are?
  21. It's unlikely we trade up again this year- we need every pick we can get and this GM has said he is building through the draft. It's a deep draft at a few spots- no way we should trade out of the 2nd and 3rd rounds.
  22. I'll tell you what- it would be awful to have a job where you had to go on twitter and social media and actually interact with random sports fans. The stuff people say to strangers online is unreal. And some of you actually take the time to email reporters?? For what purpose? What I got out of this article is that Rodak deliberately goads Bills fans because of their comments. He should find a new job- just report the news as a beat writer, don't be the news
  23. Frank Gore is an NFL Icon, respected by players and coaches. He's the kind of guy you'd want in the locker room. Yep he's old and we need to acquire some fresh legs, but it's a low risk, low money signing
  24. Smart move- young player, seemed to fit in and plays a position of need Now drafting a DT is a nice to have rather than a need to have
