What the ... that was awesome card magic. I watch the show and didn't see this, must be on an episode that hasn't aired yet. If he can keep this level of stuff up he'll go far - always does on AGT.

Great name for the new tequila in the movie Entourage 2.

Very cool of you to answer.

It has to be that he's just not good enough, right - but darn a 6'4" 247 lb guy running 4.31 - 4.52 40's seems interesting. Great athleticism, good size, work ethic, coachable, student of the game - I gotta see what this is all about. I just found him to be an interesting guy to follow.

I don't believe any team would give up a first round pick for a player in the final year of his contract.

Admittedly I didn't even now he was on our practice squad. After reading the article on BB.com - seems to me like a player to keep an eye on. “He’s a very gifted athlete,” said Bills tight ends coach Tony Sparano Jr. “His speed, his athleticism are there for all to see. But the fact that he’s able to pair that with his work ethic and with being as coachable as he is and being a student of the game that he is, is why I’m a big believer in his ability and his potential.”

Move the better left tackle to right tackle - sign the inferior player to play left because he refuses to play right sounds like a great idea to you?

Respect no doubt. Hand shake, nod of the head sure - ovation, can't do it.

I like this signing actually. Massive human being and has caught eyes other places but just couldn't make the teams.

Aren't you glad we're not one of those teams anymore?

That's a good way to put it.

Don't you think/get the feeling there's a little bit of something besides greatness about that whole organization?

Tom Brady is great and I'll say it - type it - whatever. There's something about the guy that just makes me not revere him like the other greats. I guess the easy reason is the division thing but I think it's more than that. I think I tie him into Belichick's attitude, his owners smugness and bloated importance to the game, the cheating things (one involving him). He's great, they're great - I would not stand and applaud any of these people.

But they expect management to only care about how they feel.

Exactly. He creates the hypothetical - takes his position - and if you don't agree you're definitely wrong.

Exactly. Yet players say it's a business when it suits them - but get frustrated when the team is in a difficult spot.

I kind of do blame him because players keep telling us they understand it's a business. Then all we hear is that they're frustrated when they don't have the upper hand. Well I really wish they would pick one.

We've had good lines before and it didn't work out.

Murph is just so blah to me - boring - and never says anything interesting. When he takes calls it's the worst because it's usually prefaced with him saying he wants to get everyone's take on a particular topic - followed by him taking calls and saying either the callers take is correct or wrong, zzzzz. Maybe it's gotten better because it's been a while. Good guy, loves the Bills, but I just cannot listen to him anymore. I listen to Howard's show podcast from the app.

What's glares out to me about this list is the diminished number of great QB and WR combo's.

Good post. Some can't even listen to an interview without translating negativity and at the same time demanding more out of it.

I have two problems with the explanation of the rankings. One is that Roman turned Taylor into a starting QB. The players with a "story" behind their success did it because they had the make up to become a starter. The coordinator certainly helps but the player is either special or isn't IMO. Second that Taylor is a "replacement level veteran". He was a 3rd string unknown relative rookie that when given the chance emerged.

The Ravens are so much smarter than us - that we should look to stay away and do the opposite of our impulse. They would never hire Rex Ryan.
