I'd breathe more of a sigh of relief if the pick is Hock than if it's Metcalf...

What, is Bill selling his tickets?

When I was 20-something I wasn't being offered millions of dollars to keep myself at peak performance to play a game.

Yeah, if we want to poke holes it's easy to do...better to just enjoy it and suspend disbelief (i.e., see my post above about the NK just flying around on the dragon all the time while his army literally creeps south).

Not if they have a good head on their shoulders and advisors who make sure they really understand what's important. Also less relevant to players with wives/families. With the average length of an NFL career being less than 5 years, worrying about where to get your groove on should be extremely low on the list of factors when considering FA destinations.

I was channeling the late great Van Miller...

Or was "dynamic"

Fasten your seatbelts...I think Thursday is going to be fun. I refuse to believe anything I've heard but I expect a lot of activity.

Nah, I think it's that one of the "reality" challenges they (HBO) have representing the NK and his army now is the dragon. I mean, is the NK (or the dragon) just up there flying around all the time? Does the dragon walk some of the time while NK is on a horse? When you think about how slow that army travels it's difficult to represent. I think we'll see in the next episode that he's there, and will fly in over the army in an effort to reach Bran. Of course, I could be completely wrong.

Just a horrible take. But whatever, to each his own.

Every time I see Casserly on screen I expect him to start melting.

Speaking of garbage...this post qualifies. If Seattle is insisting on a 1st for Clark I'm glad Beane is out. "Lackluster nightlife" as a reason players won't come to Buffalo...I'm still laughing...

No meltdown from me but you are correct, it would be a polarizing pick...and why did you edit my post to take out the "I'll root like hell for him?"

Different era. Also, Steel Curtain defense, Franco Harris, Lynn Swann, and John Stallworth.

I'd be willing to bet a bunch of dollars that John Murphy doesn't know Jack Schitt about who the Bills might draft.

Yeldon simply provides more options. Beane is smart enough to know that relying upon two 30+ year old backs for an entire season probably isn't practical.

I agree, all of the Starks can't survive. Something else I'm waiting to see...what is Beric Dondarrion's role? As we've heard a number of times, he was brought back for a reason.

If Yeldon had been signed as the Bills' feature back I think there would be reason for concern. But he wasn't. And he caught 65 passes last season. This is the kind of move the Pats*** would make and everyone would rave about how much they'll get out of him in a RBBC system. But it's the Bills so nah.

I want Arya to live but I think 99% of fans do...which means she'll probably die.

Shady. Gore. Yeldon. This is all about Josh Allen. Jokes about age aside, Beane is putting experienced players in the backfield with Josh -- guys who (1) know where they are supposed to be, (2) know who they are supposed to block, and (3) can provide an outlet as receivers when needed. It's a very astute plan.

It's going to be fun watching Shady return to 2016-17 form behind an OL that can actually block, and then watching all of you start backtracking.

If the Bills draft Metcalf at #9 I'll root like hell for him, but I'm going in expecting the worst.

True. Arya killing Cersei as Jaime would be brilliant.

To me it becomes less and less likely the Bills draft a RB...probably in part because Beane is going to be moving some of those draft picks to get more early round selections.

Copied from other thread: Since there are three episodes left after next week we have to assume (don't we?) that the Night King will be defeated. I think Jon kills him. I think Jon, Sansa, Tyrion survive. Theon, Grey Worm, Brienne are almost certain to die. I'm thinking Jaime will live as there needs to be at least one more encounter with Cersei. When do we see Melisandre again? Edit -- on second thought maybe Jaime (Kingslayer) kills the Night King? Poetic...
