  1. Week 1. Rosen showed last year that he needs to sit and learn for a while.
  2. My question is, why is it always written in all caps? You don't say, "let's draft a QUARTERBACK." Maybe we should ask this guy. I bet he knows.
  3. That’s the thing- this year, there was really nobody left on the board to argue about. Unless you think they should have traded up, but none of the top 8 are several assets better than EO.
  4. Marshawn Lynch has a better chance of making the Pro Football Hall of Fame than he does the Bills' Wall of Fame. Here's a fun game: Name other Bills who are legitimately more worthy than Marshawn (but most still not worthy, and in no particular order): Eric Moulds Kyle Williams Pat Williams Brian Moorman Jairus Byrd, no really Honestly, Chris freaking Kelsay might be more worthy than Marshawn Jerry Hughes Fred Jackson Eric Wood Travis Henry Lee Evans Don Beebe James Lofton Biscuit Steve Christie Richie Incognito Ruben Brown Will Wolford Probably 3-4 cornerbacks Your Mom
  5. If they don't trade up in rd. 1: Jonah Williams will be BPA at #9 JJ Arcega-Whiteside just seems like a McDermott kind of player. Depending on how things shake out, I could see them passing on him at 40 and trading up for him soon after. Or maybe they reach a little and take him at 40. I think the top 10 WR in this draft are all pretty close in terms of overall potential, just pick the guy who fits best. If they trade up: Ed Oliver in round 1 N'Keal Harry in late rd.1 or early rd. 2 I think the Bills were very happy with the way things played out last year, getting two blue-chip players via trading up. I think they do it again.
  6. And the decade ain't over yet.
  7. There is no way he is the best player available at #9.
  8. This looks like a very favorable schedule to me - They don't even have to leave the state of NY for the first 4 weeks! There are no trips to the Pacific or Mountain time zones. Almost every game is at 1:00, which should help keep the guys in a rhythm. No road games in the notoriously tough/loud stadiums like KC or Seattle. None of the opponents really scare me the way KC, LA, LA, NO etc. do - Their best opponents were the weakest division winners of 2018. The Thursday game is Thanksgiving day, which is a nice bonus for us fans. The only thing I don't like is the early bye week. I'm thinking 10-6 all day long!
  9. Am I the only one who thinks Kyler Murray is the next TIm Tebow? I'd rather keep Rosen, and I don't even like Rosen.
  10. I am hoping we use the low-round picks to trade up, not to pick a QB project.
  11. Can't wait to see the Pats there in a couple of years.
  12. So now everybody wants the Bills to miss the playoffs so we can watch them bicker at each other in HD? I hope they never qualify for Hard Knocks.
  13. Brian Westbrook gets my vote.
  14. Of Allen and Rosen, I was glad we took Allen. I would have probably felt a little better about Darnold or Mayfield, but I liked Allen a lot, too. I also thought that Lamar Jackson might wind up being the best of the bunch, but it seemed unlikely. I never liked Rosen at all, and was not surprised he was the last one of the bunch taken. I still think it was the right move, even though I am not as convinced as everyone seems to be that JA is destined for greatness - all the signs are there, but we've seen this movie before.
  15. It's a deep draft, so they are probably wise to keep their #9 pick and trade up into the late 1st rd. - early 3rd rd. range. The extra draft picks they have to trade with probably won't get them above 9 anyway. Based on draft pick trade values, they could potentially trade their 2nd and 3rd, plus maybe throw in one of their lower picks to get into the bottom 10 of the 1st round. Whatever the case may be, I hope they trade the extra 4th, 5th, and 7th rounders for something. They need talented guys more than they need warm bodies.
  16. TJ Hockenson, not to be confused with Terje Haakonsen...
  17. I've watched games at bars all over the country, and wherever I've been, there are serious Packers fans out in numbers. And they are always both the friendliest and most fun bunch in the place, win or lose. No offense, but they really are the best.
  18. Best Josh Allen Available
  19. I agree - the FAs are mostly depth guys; what they really need now is some high-end talent.
  20. Also a fun player to watch. Fitz was never a guy to hold onto the ball too long. Not afraid to chuck the rock, for better or worse.
  21. 20-0. The Chiefs, Chargers, and Bills all go undefeated, but the Bills don't get a bye because of strength of schedule. Then they run the table in the playoffs. History is made.
  22. If nothing else, the Bills improved their depth dramatically with these signings. It's a major asset in a league where you know someone's getting hurt every week. Even if there are no blue chip talents in the group, they addressed a core issue just by bringing in 11 players who have all proven they can get the job done in the NFL, and will presumably make the team. A few of them will start, and maybe one or two (can we get three?) turn out to be studs. And yes, one or two will probably suck, too. But this is already so much better than the recent status quo, which was to start a bunch of other teams' cuts, and back them up with rookies and UDFAs. Or vice-versa. I would love to see them get one more player through FA or trade, maybe splurge a bit on someone more gifted. They could still use a little more high-end talent on either side of the ball.
