    Thought it would be interesting to list who the Bills get based on various mock drafts by the "experts".  Here is what I've found so far.  Of course a lot depends on who goes 1-29.

     

    NFL.com
    Eric Edholm - CB Trey Amos
    Chad Reuter - EDGE Mike Green
    Mike Band - S Malaki Starks
    Lance Zierlein - EDGE Donovan Ezeiruaku
    Charles Davis - CB Maxwell Hairston
    Bucky Brooks - DT Kenneth Grant
    Daniel Jeremiah - DT Kenneth Grant

     

    The Athletic
    Beat Writers Draft - CB Jahdae Barron (pick by Joe Buscaglia)

     

    PFF
    Mason Cameron - CB Trey Amos

     

    CBS
    Jonathan Jones - CB Maxwell Hairston
    Ryan Wilson - S Malaki Starks
    R.J. White - DL Walter Nolen
    Pete Prisco - CB Shavon Revel

     

    ESPN
    Peter Schrager - S Malaki Starks
    Beat Writers Draft - DT Kenneth Grant (pick by Alaina Getzenberg)
     

    So far Charles Davis & Jonathan Jones were the only 2 that nailed it . I wonder just how many of those doing mocks or what percentage of them actually hit as the draft has went down ?

    Usually try to do 3 of these. This draft was interesting and for the longest time had a lot of writers block due to how many players can go in a 40 pick span but overall I feel pretty good about where I stand early as obviously things will shift after Free Agency and the Combine.  With that said here is my Version 1 mock Draft. Enjoy and feel free to rip apart and B word lol.

     

    1. Tennessee Titans- Cam Ward QB Miami

    - If I was going to take a QB in this draft, I would take Ward first over Sanders and Dart. He has continously developed in multiple different settings with multiple offense and coaches and been successful. Any team need a franchise QB and this year is debatable for whether a team should do that but here I place Ward # 1.

     

    2. Cleveland Browns- Travis Hunter WR/DB Colorado

    - Arguably the best player in the draft, the Browns could also go Quarterback but I don't think they pass up the opportunity to grab a talent like Hunter. I actually prefer Hunter at WR compared to DB as I think he is better there but it is more likely he'll be a DB with some WR packages in the NFL.

     

    3. New York Giants- Shedeur Sanders QB Colorado

    - The Giants have to figure out QB whether its in a rookie like Sanders or a Veteran QB for Schoen and Daboll to save their jobs. Sanders has solid arm strength but to me Sanders holds onto the ball too long and will have to be faster getting through progressions in the NFL to be a success. He does have the personality to be able to handle a large market like New York so I do believe he can succeed.

     

    4. New England Patriots-Abdul Carter DE/LB Penn State

    - A lot of draft projections have a WR or OT here to help out Drake Maye and that makes a ton of sense but they also brought in Mike Vrabel, a HC known for tough teams with good defense and Carter is arguably the top prospect in some peoples minds. I just think that Carter is too good of a prospect to pass up to take a lesser talent at WR or Offensive line.

     

    5. Jacksonville Jaguars- Will Johnson CB Michigan

    - I find Johnson to be the best defensive back in the draft over Hunter. Much like my earlier explanation Johnson is too good of a talent to pass up to take a lesser position of need like offensive line here. He is one of the elite talents in the draft and the Jaguars can't afford to pass him up. He should develop into a # 1 CB who can lock down # 1 WR's in the near future.

     

    6. Las Vegas Raiders- Ashton Jeanty RB Boise State

    - Here is another example of just taking the best player at this point. Running back is making a return to the NFL and the Raiders need an exciting player on their offense and Jeanty checks that box. In addition, Pete Carroll loves to run the football and had Marshan Lynch for the longest time amongst others and will need a true bell cow running back especially since they don't have a franchise QB at this point. Maybe a little bit early but I think this pick makes way too much sense.

     

    7. New York Jets- Armand Membou OT/OG Missouri

    - No matter where the Jets want to slot Membou he makes sense for this offensive line which was still an absolute disaster last year. They can either pair Membou with Fashanu at Tackle and have bookends or slot Membou inside where he can be a dominant pro bowl type player with the right development.

     

    8. Carolina Panthers- Mason Graham DT Michigan

    - The Panthers showed a great deal of improvement down the stretch with their offense and even though they can use another playmaker, the development of Jalen Coker and drafting Xavier Legette last year they will lean on going defense and pairing Graham with Derrick Brown to begin rebuilding a defense that was crushed last year.

     

    9. New Orleans Saints- Josh Simmons OT Ohio State

    - Some people will see this as a reach but I believe that Simmons upside makes him the # 1 Tackle in this draft. If it wasn't for a knee injury i'm not sure there would be much of a question here as he is a sure fire franchise LT in the league which you can't necessarily say about the other guys who will go in this range in the draft.

     

    10. Chicago Bears- Kelvin Banks OT Texas

    - The Bears need to fix their offensive line to give Caleb Williams a chance. Poles apparently was scouting offensive and defensive line very heavily at the Senior Bowl and I think there is a little better value at the offensive line position right now than at the defensive line but it wouldn't shock me to see someone like Kenneth Grant go here on the other side of the ball.

     

    11. San Francisco 49ers- James Pearce DE/LB Tennessee

    - I am personally very high on Pearce and have him right up there with Carter but he appears to be at least now going the way of Jared Verse last year where he started as a top 10 pick before going 19th overall to the Rams. Pearce would add another dynamic pass rusher for a defense that when healthy can be dominant. Pearce needs to add weight but has A++ athleticism and with development and weight room can be a monster.

     

    12. Dallas Cowboys- Tetairoa McMillan WR Arizona

    - The Cowboys have needs all over and one of them is at the WR positions and McMillan falls into their lap to pair with Ceedee Lamb. I will be curious what McMillan runs in the 40 as he is a very large WR who takes awhile to build up but he is a dominant player. I think he is a little overrated for where he is being slotted but do believe he can be a # 1 player but feel he would be right there with Odunze if he was in last years draft.

     

    13. Miami Dolphins- Will Campbell OT/OG LSU

    - Another guy much like Membou and the Jets that can play 4 out of the 5 positions on the offensive line and the Dolphins can use a little grit on their team in particular on the offensive line. Campbell can play RT and replace Armstead eventually or move down into guard and be an instant starter for the Dolphins.

     

    14. Indianapolis Colts- Nick Emmanwori S South Carolina

    - A lot of people are slotting Tyler Warren here and for the a draft need fit it makes sense but I think Warren is a little overrated as a prospect and Emmanwori is a perfect fit for the Indianapolis Colts team who need a ton of defensive talent and I believe Emmanwori is Safety # 1 in this draft.  He has rare size and movement skills and can play all over the field including the run which makes him a valuable chess piece for an NFL defense.

     

    15. Atlanta Falcons- Kenneth Grant DT Michigan

    - I feel that Grant could go earlier than this as stated in pick # 10 and he has a rare blend of size and athleticism that you just don't see in a lot of DT's. The Falcons need help on the defensive line both on the interior and exterior and Grant is a nice value pick that meets a need.

     

    16. Arizona Cardinals- Mike Green DE/LB Marshall

    - I feel that Green is being severely underrated. Yes, he needs to gain strength but he has been playing the positions for a short period of time and is a monster athlete who has a plethora of pass rush moves and production albeit at the G5 level. He will need time but a team that is patient with him could end up with a double digit sack player for the next 10 years. Green had a good senior bowl week against bigger comp so that steam isn't slowing down for him.

     

    17. Cincinnati Bengals- Jahdae Barron CB Texas

    - The Bengals are a mess defensively and like Emmanwori, Barron is a chesspiece who can do multiple things for the team that drafts him. He can play outside, inside and play the safety position all at a good level and again that value is something that teams high in the draft look for. Barron would be a good fit for a Bengals team that needs playmakers on defense.

     

    18. Seattle Seahawks- Tyler Booker OG Alabama

    - Seems like every year the Seahawks need to take a Guard and every year they either screw it up or they don't take one. I feel like this has been a position mocked every year for the Seahawks and Booker is the next in line as my # 2 interior OG behind Membou. Hopefully I wont have to mock another guard next year.

     

    19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Shemar Stewart DE Texas A&M

    - The need is there for the Bucs and Stewart is a boom or bust prospect in my opinion who has elite traits but hasn't translated it into on field success. If the Bucs can unlock him then look out but he also can be a guy I could see floating around the NFL as a journeyman for years.

     

    20. Denver Broncos- Tyler Warren TE Penn State

    - Warren finally comes off the board at pick # 20 and a guy who can further develop Bo Nix. I like Warren as a prospect but don't love him especially with how deep this Tight End class is. He is not Brock Bowers but he has good physical traits and a tough demeanor to play the position. I want to see his agility testing as he runs stiff to me and I wonder how he will separate in the NFL. Kind of reminds me of Michael Mayer who has failed to have success in the NFL.

     

    21. Pittsburgh Steelers- Emeka Egbuka WR Ohio State

    - The Steelers biggest need, outside of Quarterback, is the WR position and they could go in a couple of different directions here but I slot Egbuka here early as a guy who can play inside and play the underneath game while Pickens does the vertical stuff and provides another weapon for whomever is playing Quarterback next year for the Steelers.

     

    22. Los Angeles Chargers- Colston Loveland TE Michigan

    - Herbert needs more weapons to get the Chargers to where they want to go deep in the playoffs outside of Ladd McConkey. Instead of going WR, the Chargers tap a Tight End prospect that Jim Harbaugh is very familiar with and would be an easy transition schematically to the NFL.

     

    23. Green Bay Packers- Jalon Walker DE/LB Georgia

    - The Packers need some help at the pass rusher position and Walker can provide that for the Packers. I am not as high on Jalon Walker as others as he is a tweener both physically and positionally which scares the hell out of me. The fact he is listed at 6'2 makes me think he is going to be 6 foot and some change or 6'1 which will make him undersized. The Packers do love drafting defense and they do love them some Georgia Bulldogs.

     

    24. Minnesota Vikings- Malaki Starks S Georgia

    - Back to back Georgia Bulldogs come off the board as Starks would be a great fit for the Brian Flores defense. Harrison Smith isn't getting any younger, and the Vikings were prone to the big play last year and Starks is just flat out good value at this point in my opinion and the Vikings have become savvy drafters as of late.

     

    25. Houston Texans- Airontae Ersery OT Minnesota

    - The Texans need to fix their offensive line to have any chance for C.J. Stroud to get back to being as successful as he was his freshmen year. Ersery has good tape and had a really good week at the Senior Bowl. He would be an immediate upgrade over Blake Fisher at RT and Fisher could then bump inside to help a Texans offensive line that badly needs it.

     

    26. Los Angeles Rams- Shavon Revel CB East Carolina

    - I honestly could see this being a slot for Jaxson Dart if he is sitting on the board at this point and Stafford's career winding down. In this iteration, I will just pass on that for now and go with Revel who fills a large defensive need for the Rams. Revel is a long projectable corner that would have gone much higher in a weak top of the draft this year if he hadn't tore of his knee.

     

    27. Baltimore Ravens- Mykel Williams DE/LB Georgia

    - I am not high on Williams as he is all potential with very average tape in my opinion. He could go much higher than this I will readily admit but this just looks and smells like a Ravens pick with Williams dropping and the Ravens snapping him up late in round 1.

     

    28. Detroit Lions- Walter Nolan DT Mississippi

    - Nolan really came on this past year when he transferred to Mississippi as his tape at A&M left a lot of to be desired and some was flat out not very good at all. Nolan slips into a really good Lions team that needs loads of help on the defensive line due to injuries.

     

    29. Washington Commanders- AZ Thomas CB Florida State

    - Thomas is a long press man cornerback who is flying up the boards. He gets overlooked a little bit because he doesn't have the stats as most teams avoided him last year attacking the rest of an abysmal Florida State defense.

     

    30. Buffalo Bills- Donovan Ezeiruaku DE Boston College

    - We have been saying it for years that the Bills have to get better defensive line play to get to where they want to go and with a ton of guys possibly coming off the books, the Bills have to restock the cupboard yet against on the defensive line. Ezeiruaku is undersized but has an incredibly long wingspan, was dominant as a senior and can really get after the passer with a ton of pass rush moves. Other players I considered at this spot for the Bills include: Nic Scourton, Derrick Harmon, and Matthew Golden

     

    31. Philadelphia Eagles- Nic Scourton DE Texas A&M

    - Scourton is another A&M player who was a better player last year than he was this year but possesses a lot of quality traits you like to see in a football player. He is a big base defensive end who can probably slide inside for certain packages and the Eagles do have needs both inside and outside of their defensive line.

     

    32. Kansas City Chiefs- Donovan Jackson OG Ohio State

    - Jackson provides protection in a couple of different areas for the Chiefs. He can replace Trey Smith at RG who is a pending free agent or he can play the other guard position if the Chiefs are content playing Joe Thuney out at LT. It would be an interesting fit but it protects the Chiefs in a couple of different ways.

     

    2nd Round

    33. Cleveland Browns- Omarrion Hampton RB North Carolina

    34. New York Giants- Derrick Harmon DT Oregon

    35. Tennessee Titans- Luther Burden WR Missouri

    36. Jacksonville Jaguars- Matthew Golden WR Texas

    37. Las Vegas Raiders- Jaxson Dart QB Mississippi

    38. New England Patriots- Josh Conerly OT Oregon

    39. Chicago Bears- Princely Umanmeilen DE Mississippi

    40. New Orleans Saints- Alfred Collins DT Texas

    41. Chicago Bears- Gray Zabel OT North Dakota State

    42. New York Jets- Trey Amos CB Mississippi

    43. San Francisco 49ers- Jonah Saviinaea OT Arizona

    44. Dallas Cowboys- Kaleb Johnson RB Iowa

    45. Indianapolis Colts- Mason Taylor TE LSU

    46. Atlanta Falcons- Benjamin Morrison CB Notre Dame

    47. Arizona Cardinals- Marcus Mbow OG Purdue

    48. Miami Dolphins- Jihaad Campbell LB Alabama

    49. Cincinnati Bengals- JT Tuimoloau DE Ohio State

    50. Seattle Seahawks- Omarr Norman-Lott DT Tennessee

    51. Denver Broncos- Quinshon Judkins RB Ohio State

    52. Pittsburgh Steelers- T.J. Sanders DE/DT South Carolina

    53. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Demetrious Knight LB South Carolina

    54. Green Bay Packers- Maxwell Hairston CB Kentucky

    55. Los Angeles Chargers- Elic Ayomanor WR Stanford

     

    56. Buffalo Bills- Tre Harris WR Mississippi

    - The Bills come back in round two and take the highly productive Tre Harris at pick 56. I am incredibly high on Harris but he does need work. He possesses very large size much in the way of Keon Coleman and is more of a possession guy who can get deep much like Gabe Davis was. The difference between Gabe Davis and Tre Harris is Harris is a YAC monster in college and Harris has great hands and rarely drops the football. Most will look at his size and say he is an X WR which would be redundant with Keon Coleman here but I actually believe he is a Z Receivers with the body of an X. He needs work on route running development and isn't a finished products but he pops on the college tape. Others considered: Jack Sawyer DE, Jalen Royals WR, Jordan Burch DE

     

    57. Carolina Panthers- Danny Stutsman LB Oklahoma

    58. Houston Texans- Isaiah Bond WR Texas

    59. Baltimore Ravens- Cameron Williams OT Texas

    60. Detroit Lions- Jack Sawyer DE Ohio State

    61. Washington Commanders- Elijah Arroyo TE Miami

     

    62. Buffalo Bills- Jordan Burch DE/DT Oregon

    -  Yup the old Double Dip here for defensive ends. I am have on my team needs list multiple edges and Burch possesses a freakish body at 6'6 295. He has the athleticism of a skill player in the body of a 3 Tech. I would expect him to be a base defensive end in a 4-3 with ability to squeeze down inside on passing downs. He finally broke out as a senior after transferring from South Carolina to Oregon. He is literally the opposite of Ezeiruaku. A great run defender who relies on power right now to win in pass rushing situations. He needs to continue to grow with more pass rush moves but the size strength cannot be denied and has Calais Campbell upside if his potential can be reached. Others Considered: Darious Alexander DT, Andrew Mukuba S, Xavier Watts S.

     

    63. Philadelphia Eagles- Jalen Royals WR Utah State

    64. Kansas City Chiefs- Gunnar Helm TE Texas

     

    Well now that the first round is in the books how did you do ? I'm not going to throw stones because I don't do mocks but I did notice white a few of your picks didn't match with what went down .

    Just passing along...never know on draft night how the board will shake out.  But this will require a trade up IMO

     

    Now that we know that they were wrong do you still trust those multiple people that gave you that info ?

    You are comparing a health profesional to violent thugs? 

     

    BTW, Trump's handling of covid caused thousands and thousands of people their lives 

    If the health professional knew that the science he was telling us all was basically BS, and then lied about his involvement in the process that brought the virus to light, and those decisions that were made by the POTUS at that time were guided completely by the head health official being Fauci then it's on him and can be likened to that of a thug .

     

    You in every instance want to put the entire blame on Trump because of your biased, hatred, and the fact that you have TDS and all of us know this to be fact we've seen it for a very long time here . Then because you think that the way the gov't has been run in the past that there was nothing wrong with it proves that you are as much of a part of the problem as the corrupt career politicians running the asylum !!  

     

    As I told a person I use to work with and this is the same for you !

     

    Trump could walk up to you and give you a bar or 2 of gold bullion and you would B word that it wasn't shiny enough !!

    Warning: this is a serious topic, intended to initiate a serious discussion.

     

    Abrego-Garcia, the guy stuck in the Salvadoran prison. Did he have "due process?"

     

    Yes and no.

     

    In his deportation proceeding, yes. The core of due process: (1) notice of what the government is trying to do to deprive you of life, liberty, or property. (2) an opportunity to meaningfully respond. (3) a decision made by a neutral official (at a minimum, not the same person/board that initiated the proceeding. Abrego-Garcia was issued a notice to appear before an immigration judge telling him he was subject to deportation because he came into the United States illegally and didn't have permission to stay. That was uncontroversial. He was given the opportunity to apply for protection from removal as provided by U.S. treaty obligations and statutes. He was given a full and fair hearing. The judge found he was subject to deportation, but that he had shown that it is more likely than not that he would be subject to persecution if returned to El Salvador. The Department of Homeland Security serves as the prosecutor, and they may appeal. They didn't. Therefore, the final order - considered an order of the Attorney General acting through his designated officials - was that he could not be removed to El Salvador.

     

    He was removed to El Salvador.

     

    I'm not sure whether he was removed under the Alien Enemies Act. It seems like he was, since he couldn't be removed to El Salvador under the Immigration Judge's order. Was he given "due process?" No. He could have been informed that he was being shipped back to El Salvador, in which he would have objected that the judge's order prohibits that. He would've been right. Even under the Alien Enemies Act (I can't tell if it was invoked here), the Supreme Court said 9-0 that you get some kind of process. Maybe it's a quick/easy process in which you can say "you've got the wrong guy, I'm not Abrego-Garcia." Or "I am Abrego-Garcia, but you are subject to a valid order precluding you from sending me to El Salvador." Or "I am Abrego-Garcia, but I don't fit under the Alien Enemies Act because I am not, and have never been, a member of a gang." We'd have to see how involved the hearing would get; that's usually set by published rules. And then some neutral official would have to say "I ratify the removal" or "I find that you can't remove him under that charge." That's it.

     

    The Trump Administration violated the law. It is making no efforts to undo it's error.

    So this is outrageous, ridiculous, and dangerous to the rule of law (not "democracy;" something more basic, the rule of law). Period.

     

     

     

    From anything I have heard he has been deported 2 other times due to violating or breaking the law and being then thought he could just get married to become a US citizen and should have been deported for his past violations and then after he came back and got married he was convicted of spousal abuse so then there's that .

     

    This entire thing sounds like the narrative during the "Peaceful Protests" a few years back to which were nothing peaceful at all but twisted by some libs to want others to believe that's what was happening and seeing as 2 different judges have found this person to be in some way affiliated with MS 13 I'd say where there's smoke there's fire ...

    You are definitely stuck in thinking that what has been happening the past say 50+ years in the American gov't has been a good job but has been anything but, alls you need to do is look at the deficit and if you think that is proof of the past politicians doing a good job man you need a straight jacket .

    As usual you will go  ON & ON & ON, but I'd rather have someone fighting for some real change making the likes of you feel uncomfortable than those in the recent past sitting on their hands so the real people in power have a hard time pulling the strings of the puppet that is supposedly in charge .

     

    The reason why there is so much hate for the orange man is because he won't bow to the status quo and take direction from those behind the scenes that none of us know about and have been imbedded in the swamp for years and have put this country in debt to the tune of TRILLIONS and I for one would rather have someone try something different than the norm that has put this country where it is today .

     

    In the past politicians have allowed our country to be sold to the likes of China and want to continue down that path and companies like Monsanto, Dupont, Merc, and most of all big pharma have been pumping money in the back door of the gov't to EPA, FDA, to get what they want and to hell with what the people really need to stay healthy as long as they can continue to get rich but you along with others would rather leave it the way it is rather than go against the grain .

     

    Kind of like sheep led to the slaughter which is why you will continue to follow that that has been the norm for the past 100+ yrs and just continue to sell out the country to communists & bank ruptured the country because the path that this country has been on sure as hell has been proven to be the wrong way run by people that sure as hell do not know how to run a business which the US is just that ...

     

    I'd rather go down with a fight than be led to slaughter !

    I brought this subject up some time ago in another thread but thought it might be worth its own thread with a little variation. Today I sent away for over $250 worth of supplements that are made in the USA and not China. I had previously ordered some of these supplements but today I completely weaned myself off China supplements. Not only do we owe China a big FU for their duplicity with Covid-19 but their products are often not worthashit. How do we know that the tumeric curcumin supplement from China is real and not colored plaster dust? Face it, we can't trust China in anything and as a country we should be very wary of buying their products. 

     

    While I'm not trying to tell anyone what to do I'm encouraging anyone reading this to take a second look at what they are purchasing and consider eliminating or limiting products from China. This is a good thread to post any decisions you've made in regards to purchases either from or not from China. BTW, eliminating Chinese products from out lives is not an easy thing to do. The day after I first posted about this I saw on a store shelf an item that I was going to order online and picked it up. Later when I took it from its package I noticed that it was made in China. I at first kicked myself but then realized that if I really wanted that product this was the only brand available. We can't be perfect in doing this but we can make a difference if we at least try. Post away.

    100% tariff on all auto imports!

     

    Last year, 59% of U.S. car sales were imported from abroad.

     

    How would you like to pay a cool $50,000 more on a new Audi? OK, so maybe just Mexican imports? Oh, let's just violate the US-CAN-MEX (new NAFTA treaty) and start a nice little trade war.

     

    That's the big beautiful future Trump wants for you and me.

     

    Oh, but that wouldn't cause U.S.-produced auto prices to go up, you say?

    Well, then you failed Economics.

     

    Meanwhile, Trump is starting to think about his new administration. He doesn't like Jerome Powell at the Fed anymore (he appointed him, but of course, that's Trump for you). He kind of likes Arthur Laffer of Reagan "Laffer Curve" supply side fame and pseudo-economist Stephen Moore of former Wall Street Journal editorial fame. 

     

    Let's see what they have to say about tariffs, shall we?

    Moore and Laffer co-founded a group called the Committee to Unleash Prosperity along with Steve Forbes, the chairman of Forbes Media. The group advocates for a stable dollar, low taxes, low or no tariffs, limited spending and the repeal of many regulations. 

     

    Good to see Trump is still a stable genius "effin' moron" as one of his former Cabinet members said.

     

    Tariffs are taxes on the American consumer. He is talking about a ridiculously confiscatory tax on U.S. auto sales that would distort the market and cause a collapse in new auto sales. And meanwhile, he is talking about appointing Reaganites who devoted their careers to advocating against such taxes. 

     

    So all you Trumpies tell me: tariffs are good now? It's now o.k. to love those taxes? How high is too high? Why stop at automobiles? Why not ban imports of all consumer goods? 

     

  11. I have a couple of great memories ! Years ago I went to a game and my brothers boss knows Jim Kelly personally and they got me & my brother their season tickets and I got to meet Jim out at there RV lot where Jim went to meet fans and sell some RV's I guess and Jim signed a football for me this was all before his cancer hit him .

     

    The second was last year I got to be on the Luke Combs stadium tour and we drove to the back of the stadium parked the buses and one of the drivers was a Pats fan and while we were driving into the stadium he played the Darth Vader music across our radios saying he was entering enemy territory and it felt like his skin was melting off of him 🤣.

     

    I got to walk around the entire bowl of the stadium and most anywhere coming down the tunnel it was pretty awesome to be on the field where so much Bills history has been made !! 

     

    GO BILLS !!!

    Trump Fans Charged In Capitol Attack Didn't Like Antifa Getting Credit For Their Work | HuffPost Latest News

     

    “It was not Antifa at the Capitol,” wrote Brandon Straka, a “Stop the Steal” organizer with ties to Trump who was charged last month. “It was freedom loving Patriots who were DESPERATE to fight for the final hope of our Republic because literally nobody cares about them. Everyone else can denounce them. I will not.”

     

     

     

     

    "Straka sanctioned the seizure of a police officer’s shield while the officer attempted to keep out the crowd of rioters growing closer to the U.S. Capitol. Straka can be heard saying 'take it, take it.' Straka’s actions escalated the conduct of the rioters."

  13. From anything I've been hereing he was deported more than once & had more than one domestic violence charge for fighting with his wife which he only married after being deported to become a legal citizen and more than 1 judge determined that he had some affiliation to MS-13 .

     

    But none of that seems to have any bearing on this situation because Orange Man Bad ...

     

    And then this is getting more media than the man convicted of killing Rachel Morin because he too was a illegal immigrant deported many times and allowed to come back under a much more lax boarder policy and killed a US citizen .

     

    But nothing to see here let's focus on the big bad Orange man deporting this poor innocent illegal immigrant for noting at all ...

  14. You mean to tell me that a person that works for the US gov't that was affiliated or supported Trump had those in the US gov't make up a lie about him participating in trying to over throw the US gov't ???

     

    Say it ain't so not in our gov't - lying, spreading false statements through the media, having video proof of actual accounts that don't line up with the story being told .

     

    NAH - this guy must be a liar there's no way just ask Roundy and Tibs they will tell us all about this guy and how terrible a human being he is .

  15. I'm not up on all of the players coming out in the draft this year just the ones I've heard about by listening to certain people that are in the know more so than me, but by looking at the teams that pick before us some of which have defensive needs too I would be surprised if any of the big guys make it to us at 30 .

     

    The only way I see the Bills getting "The Guy" they want is if Beane goes after him and moves up which we all know he ain't scared to do that, matter of fact I think he has that plan all laid out .

    Bradberry visits Bills

     

    What do you think.  He's no spring chicken, but has had a nice career, most recently with the Philadelphia Eagles.  He's a bigger cornerback at 6'1"  and 210 lbs.  No burner, but fast enough, running a 4.5 40 coming out of college.  The fly in the ointment:  He tore his achilles in August last year, which is why he missed the 2025 season.  In September, he'll be just one year removed from what is one of the most devastating injuries a football player can have and cornerback is probably the position at which a torn achilles is the most difficult to deal with since he will have to make sharp cuts to stay with receivers.  The fact that he's visiting suggests he thinks he'll be able to come back this year.   If the Bills think he has a chance, they could probably sign him to a one year prove it deal that does not have much guaranteed money.  What do you think?

     

    What happened when Tre went down,  it took him almost a full year to get back to being half of what he was, this guy may be good veteran back up but I'm not seeing him as a starter on the Bills . A lot depends on what he wants to get paid .

    please share the bigger news then kids killing kids in this country. 

     

     

     

    Here might even be a bigger question than that that is never brought up in these type of situations .

     

    What kind of parenting did this kid get to even think about doing  something like this ? What type of disciplinary structures were there in their home ?

     

    I knew where every single one of my old mans guns were but I also knew that if I were to go anywhere near them that hell would be released on my ass literally and figuratively .

     

    I never 1 time thought to do something like this and in my teen  years I had a 20 gauge shot gun at my disposal any time I wanted to grab it in my room & never once thought of such a thing so what the hell has changed that kids now a days are thinking such things and think they can get away with it with out any type of discipline for their actions ?

     

    I think there should be a hard look at what kind of disciplinary parameters are with in the family to allow a teen too have access to their firearms .

    Don’t we desire to be better than China?  Better than average?  Wouldn’t it be good for the US to be widely considered elite?

     

    We use to be better or elite until we sold out to them ! Basically our economy is now controlled by them and we & others support theirs in more ways than we know so which is the more intelligent of the 2 ?

     

    Sure we can be smarter academically or book smarts but street smarts or hands on experiences comes in very handy and right now the Chinese are kicking our ass in that forum and in the end who owns who ?  But maybe that's just me ...

     

    And how many of those enrolled in those colleges are foreigners that our elite American knowledge college is teaching for them to take that back to their homeland ?

    Those first few games to me are fairly dicey.

     

    Still think he’s a hell of a back and would love to have him, but if he really makes his intentions clear…does he get booed out of Buffalo?

     

    When he undoubtedly makes a big play in the opener…does he get booed?

     

    Hollins and Cook were the 2 guys not named Allen that really gave us something against the Chiefs.

    IMO he deserves his spot if he’ll behave.

     

    Is he worth the headache?

     

    I have always thought no matter what the so called "experts" say the running back can and is a very important piece to a successful offense ! I still believe that a running back needs more carries to get into the game and a RB by comity can be counter productive to some backs because they can't get in to a rhythm of the game .

     

    Use to be a RB had to get so many carries to get going, to get a feel for how the opposition was doing things as far as rush lanes and how their O line was opening holes for them . So like the Bills they had 3 backs but mostly only used 2 which I think helped our guys get more of a feel like back when Thurman & Kenny use to be the RB's for the Bills .

     

    We now have a third just incase someone gets dinged or needs a blow or just a change of pace . But I think that Jimbo should be paid accordingly, maybe not quite as much as he wants but he should get paid I'm just not sure if Beane and company will see it in the same light when it comes to signing the check.

     

    Maybe next year if Jimbo's consistency stays where it was last season to prove his worth but then we all know there will be THAT team if he chooses to try FA that will back up the truck like Philly did but Im not sure what Beane will do .

     

    We know he likes to draft and keep his own and there should be even more money for the cap next year so we shall see . Jimbo is playing this season for his next contract so he better bring it no matter if it's with the Bills or a different team .
