No way that's a pick. Jump ball at most, which goes to the offense if I'm not mistaken.

Week 2 was a sick-point-sick on the Sickter Scale.

Who cares, it didn't affect the outcome. Bad calls are a part of the game. Instant replay is the worst thing that ever happened to sports. But it wouldn't be that difficult to rig the goalposts with lasers that could detect anything breaking the plane. It's the same technology that prevents your garage door from crushing your cat.

Miami is a team on the rise right now. Yes, they are trotting out Ryan Fitzpatrick to start the season, but we all know he can win 6-7 games before the wheels fall off. By then, Tua could be ready to take over. They have what it takes to pull off a winning record, at least.

This is the best team the Bills have fielded in 25 years, so I am more excited about watching them play than maybe ever. I think we all need the distraction of sports now more than ever as well. Tempering my enthusiasm, however, is the thought that the season will probably be over within three weeks of it starting. We have seen multiple COVID cancellations in baseball - how are they going to play football games without outbreaks? I just don't see it going very far. I hope nobody dies.

Glad it's not Lamar Jackson.

A lot of teams will be starting JAGs at a lot of positions this year. The good news is that there is more talent than opportunity out there, so I think it will all even out and things will be fine.

Ha ha, Kordell Stewart. Looks like his QB rating was below the Kordoza line in 1998. And Rob Johnson had pretty much the highest rating in the league.

Fitz was never really bad. The team around him was hot garbage.

I don't see why he couldn't be a great return man. Can he beat out Andre Roberts for a roster spot? Maybe not, but the dude is a world class, veteran professional athlete and mature adult who has dedicated his life to learning American football. He's got lightning reflexes, speed for days, an incredible instincts as a runner in space (and not just as a runner, but as a ball carrier). People in here are equating the kick return to building a nuclear submarine, but it's not that big of a stretch for a guy like Wade. He has a better chance at success than people think.

Wow, I didn’t know he was drinking so hard in Buffalo. What a waste of talent. And money, and draft capital.

You forgot Peterman.

Moss looks pretty good to me - he has great balance, he knows right where to go to give tacklers no chance, and he runs really hard. He's like a faster version of Freddy Jackson. He also gets his eyes downfield so fast on spins and other dodgy moves. And I think it's great having him and Singletary split carries - Between Singletary's size and Moss's style, they are both going to need to keep their mileage down.

Kicker is also the only position where you can get a top prospect in the 6th round. So you might as well go for it - he probably has a better chance of making the team than the 28th best offensive lineman or whatever else was available then.

I think any season at all will be a long shot this year, but 14 games would be legit. Less than that and it starts to become asterisk territory.

You gotta give the guy credit. I never thought he would have been in the league as long as he as.

I'm going B. The first two picks were very, very good. They took two receivers after so many were already off the board, and neither of these guys look like they are guaranteed to make the team. They conjure memories of James Hardy, Marcus Easley, etc. The QB was good value, but I'm not sure Josh Allen is ready to be the mentor yet, so to me it only works if they are planning to use a roster spot for a QB3. They still need a vet there, and I don't know if sticking Fromm on the Practice Squad would be worth anyone's while. And everyone saying Fromm is an upgrade over Barkley - Based on what? If we are comparing apples to apples, you have to go to the college days and based on that, they are very similar. And Barkley has 7 years as a pro now. I liked the kicker pick. Hauschka has been unreliable and the best chance you have of developing a good kicker is getting the first one off the board. And you aren't likely to find contributors on offense or defense in round 6. Beane wasn't able to trade up at all. Maybe they felt the talent was there when they were picking, but more likely other GMs weren't in the market for a bunch of 5-7 rounders. That said, I'm glad they didn't trade any of next year's top 4 picks - which may have been their best trade bait. Overall, they got needs filled higher in the draft, which is nice. They took fliers lower, which is better than picking suspect players to fill needs. The two WR picks look like duds to me, but maybe that's just me.

I would also say '85. Those Bears were the most memorable team of the last 40 years, possibly ever. It was also the middle of the Joe Montana 49er years and the early days of some other great QBs' careers.

Assuming it would be the first in a long run of Bills Super Bowl triumphs, I don't think it will matter much in the long run.

I did too. To me, he looked like a 14 year old punk you would see selling weed under a bridge somewhere. I just didn't think he was a mature adult, and figured he would crumble under the pressure of being a pro. Boy, was I wrong.

He was a project from the beginning. Guys like EJ only become good if they sit a few years behind an entrenched franchise QB. He never had anything like that. It was just a dumb pick for the Bills at that time.

How do multimillionaires get COVID? You live in a mansion and can pay people to bring you everything your heart desires. You don't have to go anywhere, and can be completely comfortable doing so. I don't get it.

Trade Stefon Diggs. He could easily fetch a first-rounder in this market.

Maybin and McCargo stand out as the worst because they were first-rounders that stunk from the word 'go', in any context, regardless of who else was still available. I can see the argument that Whitner was not such a bad pick, but I thought it was pretty lame when it happened. At #8, you still have a chance to take the best player available at several positions, and they took the second safety off the board. And when you take a safety in the top 10, the dude should be a straight up beast. Whitner was good, but not that good. Spiller was a stupid pick. They had a lot of needs, RB not being one of them, and they take a glorified gadget player. He had some nice runs, but he was never really an impact player, and you just knew from his college highlight reel that he would never be able to replicate that kind of play against an NFL defense, especially when playing for a Buffalo Bills offense. The McGahee pick was pretty bad, even though he turned out to be a very good RB both in Buffalo and elsewhere. On draft day it registered as a really bad idea: A big risk that he would ever get his leg anywhere near normal again after a vomit-inducing, multi-ligament shred-fest, and also knowing that he wouldn't play his rookie year at all. It's a funny one, because it was a bad pick, but it still worked out.
