Bills home opener week 2 TNF vs Detroit
NeverOutNick replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’d be all about $300 tickets. Cheapest I’ve seen is almost $500 for nose bleeds -
I agree with everything except I actually expect us to get the 1 seed this year. 4-2 or better out the gate with most of the big travel out of the way and no McD blown games. I’m feeling a 13-4 season with us getting that 1 seed

Bills home opener week 2 TNF vs Detroit
NeverOutNick replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
Man tickets are insane right now. Wondering if they’ll be cheaper later or more expensive since it’s the home opener -
Honestly it’s not great. Bills will win BUT Kyler Murray always starts off hot and then after the first month he goes back to playing video games. It’ll be a tough game

Dolphins draft pick takes 250k guaranteed, then retires
NeverOutNick replied to Gregg's topic in The Stadium Wall
lol I read that too and had to do a double take. Arrested 13 July 2026 🤔 -
These reporters asked the same questions 7 times. What a dull interview that could’ve been better with reporters that had any personality at all

Agreed! My favorite poster by far I hope you’re right. My comp was a poor mans Diggs so anything close I’ll take. I know these highlights against air mean nothing but of all the short clips, I was most impressed with Parker. He looked very smooth. Maybe the kid really will be a steal 🙏🏻

WR Jermaine Burton to Bills Mini Camp
NeverOutNick replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah, we definitely weren’t watching the same games. He seemed pretty lackadaisical. But here’s hoping that he actually shows up this year. -
If we’re keeping this analogy. Beane takes a lot of at bats thinking he will just put the ball in play to get a single and drive in runs but ends up striking out instead. Why not swing for the fences on a couple of those at bats since your singles strategy isn’t working out the best in the first few rounds. And to be fair he’s a great contact hitter when it gets late in the game, 4th through 7th round but let’s try to take the lead early with some power at bats lol

This is a great post and may have swayed me a little more after being pessimistic on a couple picks (mainly Parker and Bowry). I 100% agree I wanted instant superstar upgrade and thought KC was that guy but it would’ve taken us not having the ammo we got because we probably lose at least a 4th rounder to move up 3 picks for him and more likely pick 91. This is right. Beane has shown in the past that BPA isn’t how he drafts. He has his lists of positional needs and has them tiered out I’m sure but in the early rounds especially he’s going to pick a player that fits what he feels is the biggest need of the team (See Elam once they lost out on McDuffie, or Coleman the year Diggs left). If he was truly going BPA there is no way Elam and Coleman were the guys where he picked. I’m sure he isn’t pigeonholed always to one specific position. It’s more likely that you take him at his word and he really was going to take a corner or edge with his first pick because that’s his biggest “need” and he felt he had enough players ranked in that tier to bypass a true BPA overall. Again his past clearly shows this. My only real problem with Beane is for a guy who came out big 🏈 🏈 swinging for the fences, taking a huge risk on Josh Allen (which I and a lot of us loved at the time), he now takes safe singles. No more home run swings that lead to other superstar talent. We get the same jargon in pressers on how this guy is a 3 down or 4 down player instead of this guy was just too hard to pass up because even though he needs work on one area (defending the run or concentration drops) he’s elite at the the thing he does best (rushing the passer or creating separation). He had a solid draft that filled holes and I have confidence we will be a better team. He’s also really good at working in draft trades. Maybe the best in the league and I love that about him. And maybe I’m just living in a fantasy world where I think we can have it all and be the clear Super Bowl favorites year in and year out because we have Josh freaking Allen AND a plethora of other elite talent 🤷🏻♂️

And isn’t that a big problem to have a mindset like that? Other GMs take big swings on high risk/reward players but Beane is fine taking the “safe” 3 or 4 down player. We have Josh Allen, it’s ok to take some risk. Yes Bell has the highest floor of the 3 WRs mentioned and was good value in the mid 4th but as I stated in my WR rankings, he’s a poor mans Stefon Diggs. That’s a solid possession player but if Hurst turns into the next Larry Fitzgerald (I know it’s unlikely) or Brazzell turns into a faster bigger version of Devonta Smith it’s going to hurt. Both those guys could be complete busts but they’re worth the risk in the 3rd round imo. He’s just too safe imo and it’s the reason every year we have Josh Allen and a bunch of guys. It’d be nice to have a Chris Jones, a Kelce, a Tyreek Hill. My opinion again is you can get your safe roll players that are proven in free agency but it’s ok to take some risk in the draft.

Reflecting on that video and the draft I’ve come to terms that they were going Edge and Corner their first 2 picks and even if I don’t love the upside of Parker (feels like a safe whatever 3 down non superstar), I’m fine with the draft overall except 1 thing. I hate how Beane handled things after his 2 picks on day 2. He had the first pick in the 4th and really good players were falling in the 3rd. You traded back for an uninspiring Olineman instead of working the phones to look for a true future stud. Ted Hurst and Chris Brazzel went in the mid 80s and probably could’ve been had for that 101 and a 5th rounder. Time will tell and I’m happy we got Bell at least but I’m all about getting more superstars and even though those WRs have more bust potential, the upside is insane. We need more stars and less same ol same ol

I gotta admit that was pretty awesome! It does seem like they had a couple pass rushers at the top of their list but Parker edged out the other guy because he was better against the run but my gut says the other guy was Howell and that guy is still gonna be awesome. I just hope Parker is better. Definitely liked the reactions of some of the late round guys starting with Kilgore. Pray that all these guys contribute early to us winning a Super Bowl.

Draft: Anybody heading to Pittsburgh?
NeverOutNick replied to MasterStrategist's topic in The Stadium Wall
First draft ever and I’ve got to say Pittsburgh did an awesome job! We got in Friday night late so decided to watch the 2nd/3rd round from a local sports bar but Saturday we got there at 0930 after placing a couple bets at riverside casino across the street. It was beautiful light sprinkling weather on a nice cool day, which I welcomed after the heat 🥵 of Florida. We did the museum, got my awesome Bills white and black embroidered 2026 nfl draft hat and got my daughter a build a bear Buffalo Bills football style and ate some decent food. We were close enough to the theater with the crowd not being as large and got a photo bomb with Eisen and Daniel Jeremiah before the draft started. Hated the first pick after Beane decided to talk to the media instead of trade up for Brazzell or Hurst in the 3rd and was about to buy a poster board and write, please draft Josh Allen a wide receiver! Lol… I was even going to write the remaining wide receivers on my boards, crossing them off one by one as he passed on them, BUT then he did the unthinkable and actually drafted one lol so I just enjoyed the rest of the time there before heading back to the casino for a bit. Very convenient and clean city. Did a bike tour Sunday morning and rode the incline to get the full view. We ate primanti Brothers and Betos pizza (it was actually good, hot pizza with cold toppings). Went to the Pirates game Monday night, which was awesome (perfect game through 7 and then like pirates fashion they lost in the 9th). Best MLB stadium I’ve ever been to out of all 24 (still need to hit the west coast). All in all great trip and can check nfl draft off my bucket list. -
WR Jermaine Burton to Bills Mini Camp
NeverOutNick replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
We must’ve not been watching the same guy. He was always getting open. Yes his hands weren’t always the best but he kept defenses honest and created a lot of separation. I’d be happy to have him back
