This was a weak WR draft, but their mistake was not acquiring Metcalf. Do you really think Metcalf wanted a No name QB, over the best QB in the NFL. Do you think he wants a melodramatic over the hills QB like Rodgers if he even signs there.

I have three kids (two boys and my daughter). My sons both played flag until 11 or so, then went to tackle. Eventually they both converted to lax, and became their passion. It made it easy for me as I stopped being their coach and just was a dad. My daughter hated sports so she was into dance. She had a great voice so she also sang in performances. I never tried to make any of my kids do anything they were not interested in doing, but just mandated they do well in school, do their chores, and be nice to their mother.

I wouldn’t put too much stock in an underwhelming performances as he played in NJJ, and Cleveland. Those QB’s stink. Look what Mack Hollins did here as he had JA17 throwing to him. He’s cheap and young so why not given Beane did nothing in the draft. I’m not counting on a aster in the 7th rd.

I listened when it was on, and Jeremy was fine. He had to show respect to the GM, but didn’t back down. I had no issues as I expected Jeremy to back down even more. Beane was having a bad morning. He’s probably sick if the second guessing as he brought up JA vs. Rosen.

Ingram has survived 4 camps if memory serves and is a good depth CB. He’s not a starter, but wasn't asked be a starter. Just break in terms of emergency. Overall I was relatively happy in the draft, minus no speed WR that could’ve helped, but then again as The Rolling Stones once sang, you do t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you get what you need.

Did he look like this?

Virg., I had a large sigh of relief when I saw us move up for this pick. I was hoping for more talent at WR, but understand the strategy. They drafted they hope for Taron’s eventual replacement after getting developed for two years.

I’ve said before, but I do t care about his temper tantrums as hell begrudgingly play this year, as he’s playing for a contract, then franchise tag him just to p*% him off and then we drop his ars in 2 years. Draft a RB next year. Why waste the pick this year when we have time. My vote is we bundle our 4ths, move up and grab a speed WR, then bundle our 5ths and move up to get a Safety, then whatever BPA.

I’m sorry Flaz is gone, but now he’s with God. He was a decent guy, and an avid Bills fan. He will be missed. RIP Flaz.

Don’t take the bait. No one outside the organization really knows what we are picking as evidenced by us taking Hairston. Someone does this every year, and almost always is wrong. It doesn’t bother me nor do I take any stock in any predictions. I’m not inferring anything about the OP. I’m sure he thinks he knew something, but that is something someone is fired for if came out.

Sold Turbo. That works for me and it would be my fantasy Beane starts his magic by bundling our 2 4th rds to get a 3rd rd pick. Then our 3 5th rds picks to get a 4th. Last, but not least our 3rd rd. picks to find a trade partner to get a 5th rd pick. That ends up with 6 total picks in the top 5 rds.. That’s about right as well never actually have 10 picks make the 53. 6 picks all in the top 5 rds is better talent you hope, and we pick up depth for the PS with UDFA’s. There’s my wish list.

Your post makes no sense. It’s fine. Enjoy draft day.

This surprises anyone why? It’s not going to work, nor will help negotiations, but typical.

Probably will watch quietly at home. I’m 57 and too old for the bar, and all that stuff. Picking at 30 will be a struggle to stay up as I get up at 5 am. I’m hopeful all of you have fun.

Happy Easter everyone. We went to Philippe Park in Safety Harbor for Sunrise Mass at 7:30am as it’s beautiful there. The sun is rising, our church (Catholic so important to us) does two masses at a park in Safety Harbor, where it butts up to the north end of the Tampa Bay right on the water. Beautiful split oak trees everywhere, hundreds of people there for both masses. Then we had my three kids, my daughter’s boyfriend, and my two stepsons for a wonderful Sunday Brunch. Easter is about faith and family, not chocolate. That’s great when you’re kids are little and still hopefully believe in the Easter Bunny, but for us only it s about faith and family. I hope all of you were able to do whatever you love on Easter Sunday. Take care my TBD friends.

Things are fine the way they are right now. With the next CBA, it’s inevitable we’ll go to an 18 game season as there is too much $ in it for the owners, TV, and subscription services. Im not saying it’s the right thing to do, but it’s going to happen, so we might as well just accept it. Some of you may not like it, but it’s happening.

BB, it’s great to hear from you old friend. I miss our conversations. I hope you’re well and trust your research.

I’ve brought this up before, but my favorite Rich Stadium memory was in 1988 around thanksgiving. Big old Freddy Smerlas blocked the one field goal against the Jests. We won the AFCE the first time in years, and stormed the field. I had my 4 closest HS friends with me and 8 of my fraternity brothers from Oswego. Together we were in the end zone on the tunnel side, and across the tunnel was 30 Gamma guys also from Oswego. They made it a big road trip as many of them were from downstate. I was in Sig Tau, but we got along with the Gamma guys. Heck the night before 14 guys and the Gamma guys were at PJ Bottoms by UB, and all got in a roadhouse fight against the Rugby team. It was crazy so a bunch of us went to the game with black eyes and one guy had a broken nose, but had a blast. So when we clinched it we went flying down to the field, and was congratulating the players as they ran into the locker room. I was the 5th or 6th guy up on the goal post for all of 7-8 seconds. Then I was used as a ladder by other to get up to the top and went flying into the crowd. The worst part was by then the crowd was all falling forward and I had layers of fans on top of my legs. It was actually pretty scary, but I’ll never forget that Rich Stadium moment. Thanks for the topic as it was a fond memory. I look forward to reading other memories as I’ll miss that stadium when it’s gone. I was a toddler when it was built so it’s always been in my life. My sons consider our September trips as some of their fondest football memories as well. Once we have the schedule, we always say a prayer there will be a September 1pm home game. I’m getting too old for October and later games.

I agree with you Chans. The past is the past. My vote was also Moulds though as he had the speed, size, and hands to create separation.

We only really need 6-7 picks as we still have depth. So, for me in the 1st, and 2 2nds, in whatever order the most talented position, we shoot for a DT, CB, and speed WR who creates separation. We bundle maybe our 24ths to see if we can get one 3rd. Then a DE and in the later picks we bundle again to keep smaller jumps up for a S. What we don’t need is an O Lineman, or RB. Let Cook play out his last year, then next year draft one and franchise Cook for another year. That’s 2 yrs., and let Cook test the market. Beane would’ve an idiot to extend him to an exorbitant contract. Every couple of years we use one draft pick on a RB, and never extend them. Guys like Barkley don’t grow on trees.

Chandman, thanks for sharing. It was a heck of a memory. I remember exact where I was in FL.

Chans, I know you’re a decent guy, but the point is not everything happens in the first three rounds. I wasn’t trying to bang on you at all. Milano a fifth round pick, Dane is serviceable a late rounder doesn’t pick, Benford a Sixth round pick. He finds gems. Not everything is the for. Three rounds. I appreciate you doing the homework of that helps.

Why isn’t Benford in the 2022 draft as he’s a star? Just because he’s a late rounder doesn’t mean he’s meaningless.

He’s always been overrated.

I’m sure we can dig up a lollipop kid for 4th and Goal.
