yea I wasnt criticizing I was just curious if there was actual info for this or just speculation... the exec's and managers from 716 rest. and Pegula sports have been touring breweries in the area so I thought they might want to open their own brewery, this building might fit the bill

where are you getting this info from?

Don't know if they bought business and building or just building but I think that doesn't matter - I have strong beliefs they are going to build a brewery there

If we draft a WR in round 1 or 2 (or maybe even 3) - they COULD come in and immediately replace Woods "production". Yes Woods was an excellent run blocker, but thats not to say the new WR cannot also be. And this would be at a fraction of his contract. Gilmore's quality wont be replaced, but it doesn't need to be as dictated by the defensive scheme. Why pay 50 dollars for a pair of shoes that do the same job as a 5 dollar pair? And you are right...we had a lot of free agents and holes that we needed to use our available funds to fill...I just don't agree that we really lost much we can't / haven't replaced.

THIS GUY gets it.. Semi cap strapped and we got some guys who will make a difference on sundays (hyde, dimarco, good depth and probably some surprise performers) Gilmore and Woods = luxuries

why would he really want to stick it to the Bills? What have the Bills ever done to threaten him? This is just silly This is "Buffalo mentality". We hate the Patriots and Brady and Bill because they have been dominant....so then we take it personal and make up things when they dont exist lol. They took Hogan from us because he fits their offense/philosophy, and now have paid Gilmore because Bill likes him as a shut down corner (that we dont need here in our new defense BTW)....has nothing to do with personal beef between Bill and the Bills - but I guess you can keep being delusional

I dont think "Billacheat" cares one way or another where a guy is coming from, and therefore shoving it in the face of their former team...you really think Bill loses ANY sleep over the Buffalo Bills and their players/former players? We are so far beneath them its not even conceivable. I do think he is very great at finding other teams castoffs (no matter what team), or players he covets for their fit in his system, and brings them in. They have success because everyone has success on the Patriots, and therefore it may seem to fans of those players former teams that their face is being shoved in it when those players do experience success with the Pats.

fun Want - Mahomes Dont Want - Any CB Dark Horse - Cunningham Think - If there, Davis, if not Peppers

Makes sense...the NFL is obviously now the Passing League (except our Bills), so your defense should reflect that. This is not new, even Fat Rex said when he was hired that the base defense isnt a big deal (it obviously was, dumbass) because you spend the majority of your time on defense in your nickel and dime packages... I could see a situation where Hyde is used as a hybrid LB/coverage guy, being on the field at the same time as two other safeties often. I just want coach McD to put the best 11 defenders on the field at the same time

why do these beat writers need to guess when there are tools like Spotrac out there?

Are we having problems selling tickets? I would assume what brings the season ticket holders back is loyalty, just like every other year. I've been a long time season ticket holder, as are most in my section, and we keep coming back. Its not because of splashy (or, not so splashy) signings..it's because we are die hard fans who love the Bills and experiencing it all live and in person and with each other. And who gives a **** if signings bring more fans or not...I want, and 99% of fans want, signings that make our football team competitive

I legitimately spit some coffee back into my thermos The kid is a punk, and a wannabe gangster. All the known incidents are out there and plentiful. Icing on the cake was after all the stories and the exposure, his friend posts a photo of him rolling blunts on a kitchen table. Maybe limit your exposure instead of highlight it. I had personal interactions with him when he was a senior in high school. Very arrogant, very entitled, very confrontational. Yes people can certainly mature, I certainly did, since my experience with him he has done nothing to reshape my opinions of him as a person. I don't want that on my football team. I also don't think he's really that good of a QB. Good arm, mobile and tough. I don't see him working hard like is needed to achieve at the NFL level. Added all together I wouldn't take him for free.

yea and said he only didnt draft him because he had Peyton....ok...but you pass on the next great QB 5 times just because you already have a starter???? No, you at least take him for a quality backup or trade bait lol...crazy old man

Well Rodgers was drafted in the 20s of the first round - so technically being middle of the pack would certainly allow us to draft Rodgers. : ) You have to identify your guy and pull the trigger

Not saying they won't move on from Tyrod - but I have the opposite take. Technically the bills only need to make an announcement/make a big deal out of it if they are going to cut Tyrod. They can technically do nothing up until and past march 11th, they don't need to do anything to keep Tyrod except let the time run out. He's already under contract. They don't even need to sign their names on anything.

Ryan Groy, not Goy Overall it seems like a reasonable plan, however, its easy to say "sign so and so, mid level replacement" while jettisoning our guys. I'm just not sure those "cheaper" guys are out there in abundance at all of those positions. We need to spend resources (money and draft) on safety this offseason....and agreed a real upgrade at RT will do wonders with the line, running game and passing game

The patriots (again) (still). With Brady playing another 15 years I see them as the next dynasty.

I won't lie, one point I was on board with hooker/Adams if they were available. But fret not, I am past that point now. I would def like Davis or Williams (in that order), or franchise QB if they decide to move on from Tyrod (or even if they don't honestly) if they identify one they are sold on. Maybe if Allen falls to us he would be a good option. Rueben foster intrigues me too. There are a lot of options at our pick to improve the team immediately or long term (QB).

Absolutely agree with this. now back to prospects!!

Great response but it didn't address the question I posed to Bill, who stated that DE edge rushers and tweeners win games for teams. You talked about branch and his run stuffing and interior pressure changing the game (I'm glad he had a good game but that's not why the Pats won) and that's great, but branch is neither an edge rushing DE nor a tweener And I do agree with you about the first round pick. IF our FO and staff think there is a QB in this draft that can Be franchise material - I'm more than OK with them taking him at 10.

id be fond of something exotic....Ruby Red? Lime Green?

perfect...prime example, and he does it often. LOL at the haters.

Which pass rushing DE/tweener won big games for the Patriots? Falcons? Packers? Steelers? Hmmmm....cant really think of any. I can, however, think of great QB play that won those teams games. I agree with the heart of what your saying though, I think. We need to get better on the right side of our o-line. I just think there are other avenues to do that while still identifying your franchise QB (if its not Tyrod)

You must have watched about 4 youtube clips then...watch the full games and you will see plenty of him standing in the pocket and going away from primary reads. You will also see plenty of him "throwing WRs open" - everyones favorite knock against Tyrod. The kid can straight throw, mechanics be damned. All in on the Mahomes train, CHOOOOO CHOOOOOOO!

yea when teams started blitzing and getting pressure on Wentz he crumbled...just like the knock on him coming out said. Goff/Wentz are bums. I would take Mahomes/Trubisky over either of them today - knowing they are projects
