  1. Nah, they have a couple of representatives who go to the draft, but the team's heavy hitters stay at the home site in their respective "War Rooms."
  2. Yeah, that Aaron Rodgers guy is pretty bad too. Watch out!
  3. The Bills find their trade partner in Chicago at #8 overall and give up the #65 overall pick to do so. Chicago will then go best defensive player available at #12. The Bills will then draft the following: #8 - QB, Josh Rosen [UCLA] #22 - C, Frank Ragnow [Arkansas] #53 - DT, B.J. Hill [N.C. State] #56 - LB, Oren Burks [Vanderbilt] #96 - WR, Dante Pettis [Washington]
  4. Warning: The following is extremely hypothetical and is all opinion based; this is just meant in good fun as I am eagerly awaiting this year's draft just as I did 2004/2005 (I list both because of the events that precipitated out of it. This is obviously a stretch of hindsight is 20/20 and shoulda-woulda-coulda, sprinkled in with a dose of...hmmm, that could have been possible. I also bring it up because the 2018 is being talked about similar to the 2004 draft, where we will likely see 3 high-quality NFL starters come out of the 1st round that will be the face of the NFL in the years to come. 2004: QB-centric and QB-heavy draft, touted best since 1983. The Bills had some idea they wanted a QB in this draft, but opted not to move up for the big three of Manning, Rivers and Roethlisberger. Instead, the Bills stayed in place and draft Lee Evans just two (2) picks after Big Ben. Then, later in round 1- the Bills assume they can draft their guy from Tulane, the one and only J.P. Losman at 22nd overall at the expense of our 2004 2nd and 2005 1st round pick. At the conclusion of the 2004 NFL season, the Bills released then starting QB Drew Bledsoe, who then went on to play a good season or so of football in Dallas. Flash forward to 2005: Drew Bledsoe still had a season or two left in him, and the Bills went 9-7 in 2004. We could have waited just one-year to draft a QB, and this guy would have been sitting there at #20 when the Bills would have selected in the 2005 NFL draft. Aaron Rodgers. In fantastic fashion, I believe these two drafts were the absolute worst in Bills history. Reality: Between 2004/2005 we landed: (1st and 2nd round only) Lee Evans, J.P. Losman and Roscoe Parrish Alternate Universe: Between 2004/2005 we could have landed: (1st and 2nd round only) Lee Evans, Bob Sanders (bpa), Aaron Rodgers and likely Roscoe Parrish :-p
  5. I do like Lauletta. Obviously he impressed at the senior bowl, has many good physical traits and competitiveness, but he wasn't a top recruit, and hadn't gotten a ton of buzz throughout the last couple of seasons until very late. With that being said, I like what I've watched on him after listening to a couple of his interviews. Has that fire, competitive spirit and moxy you want and carries a chip on his shoulder. I think he could see play and do well in the right fit with the right coaches and system - but getting that chance is very difficult for a mid-round prospect. I suspect he could go as high as round 2, and as low as round 5.
  6. Firstly, good post and appreciate your hard work. Secondly, even just from remembering watching the game live last year I can recall vividly, how Mills was not even trying.
  7. I feel like we are missing a bunch!!
  8. Trent Murphy to sign three-year, $21 million deal with Bills
  9. I would have to agree with this logic.
  10. Haven't a clue, but top 4 considerations are, Barkley, Allen, Darnold, Rosen , Mayfield and Chubb (in no particular order).
  11. Gotta remember he's only 24 years old! :-o
  12. Don't love the value chart, but without taking into account 5th and 6th round swaps, the 1st round pick swap is the equivalent of a mid-2nd round pick.
  13. I'm in oil and gas. We all took pay cuts 2 years ago to prevent even more people from being laid off company wide. We got our pay back about 10 months later, but lost paycuts, 401k match and other benefits. Sometimes you do it because you have no choice for the good of the organization.
  14. I got to see Kirk twice last season, home vs. UCLA and home vs. Prairie View A&M. Throwing out the 2TD game vs Prairie View A&M because its PVAM... he's played pretty well - more so as a returner than a receiver IMO. From the other games I saw on TV, I really like him but he's a late 2nd - mid 3rd round pick.
  15. As long as Al Gillette Riveron is in the NFL, chalk it down as a Pats Win.
  16. If only Atlanta didn't mess things up last year.... Still salty about that.
  17. If I'm being honest, it was a really down year in terms of watching college football to me. I did not see any Memphis games this season :-/
  18. He will be better. His QB was not very good.
  19. Anyone else but Tyrod?
  20. 68 million Americans have been born since we last made the playoffs.
  21. No love for Luke Falk? Edit: just saw poster above me
  22. No, only way we are 5 see is with Ravens, Titans and Chargers loss. A Titans win with a Ravens and Chargers loss pits the Titans as 5 seed and Bills 6.
  23. Due to the anemic offensive play at QB, I have freed up 3 hours of my upcoming Sunday. Thank you team.
