Doubt Sammy plays but Robert Woods and Goff maybe.

1 dead, 19 injured before rally of right-wing groups in Charlottesville Video of the incident shows a gray Dodge Challenger driving quickly down a narrow side street lined with walking protesters. The sports car rams into the back of a silver convertible, which hits the van in front of it. Soon the Dodge driver slams the car in reverse, going back up the street at a high rate of speed, dragging its front bumper. Several people chase the car. As the sports car retreats, a red athletic shoe falls off the bumper. http://www.cnn.com/2017/08/12/us/charlottesville-white-nationalists-rally/index.html

Boldin and Matthews have been slot receivers . Will that work out ok here ?

If NE* is convinced Jimmy G is a franchise QB it would be foolish to let him walk and go with Brady who will turn 41 next Aug. I would try to trade Brady after this season if he still wanted to play.

Very good write up Shaw66. This is looking more like the Brown's rebuild model. Have to win the lottery and get a franchise QB is the only way for success . Riverboat Ron rubbed off on McD and Beane , time to gamble. https://www.google.com/search?q=riverboat+ron+gif&tbm=isch&imgil=kmISpVlpz48XIM%253A%253BZN3Pu01sqXxOdM%253Bhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fblacksportsonline.com%25252Fhome%25252F2014%25252F03%25252Fron-rivera-panthers-may-not-need-1-wr%25252Friverboat-ron-rivera%25252F&source=iu&pf=m&fir=kmISpVlpz48XIM%253A%252CZN3Pu01sqXxOdM%252C_&usg=__kzQWuvtd5DdmBpCOzfvuTpuPsSo%3D&biw=1239&bih=594&ved=0ahUKEwiJof3o3NHVAhUk94MKHTk5DEUQyjcIRg&ei=W_iOWcmHE6TujwS58rCoBA#imgrc=kmISpVlpz48XIM:

If Matthews and Gaines are both healthy and good starters I'd be ok with the trades. Having Boldin for a year or two makes a difference also. I guess Darby was more man coverage and Gaines more zone like McD wants ? Still without Gilmore and Darby looks risky for now.

Unfortunately, this 41-yard completion to Aldrick Robinson was called back due to a holding penalty. But the hype train had already left the station and was full speed ahead. Mahomes displayed the rifle arm that shot him up the draft board in the spring, squeezing a few passes in tight windows (some were dropped) and finding open receivers elsewhere. It's also preseason, meaning there was plenty of subpar play in the second half, though most was not Mahomes' fault. The quarterback finished 7-of-9 passing with 49 yards and a touchdown, which came as a result of a risky throw across his body into traffic. But hey, it worked. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000828965/article/what-we-learned-from-fridays-preseason-games So far 2017 QB class looks good. Trubisky , Mahomes, Watson and Kizer. I just hope McD knew what he was doing in that draft.

I'll be happy if Matthews and Gaines are 100% healhty

Sad but true

I can agree with that . That is why I supported Kasich who is bipartisan who could have had a chance to get something done.

I'm Independent and don't agree with the left or right. Are you being serious this time ?

Why would the left be melting down ? The right has congress , the WH , state legislators , governors. You have total control, you own this not the left.

In this area Lockport -Spectrum cable SF @ KC 9PM . I would not watch Joe Namath a football life at 7

Jeffmagic will rightly never let McD hear the end of it if he becomes franchise QB Strange blacked out here in Lockport - Spectrum for Pitt game Online has SF @ KC start at 9PM EDT I was going by my tv cable schedule reading 10PM

Tonight's games on NFL network. Mahomes KC

That's a good point

Yikes , hope trade is based on him passing a physical

Is Gaines a equal replacement for Darby ?

They must have thought Sammy would have to be tagged after this season then FA walk. He proved his value yesterday so he was tradeable .

Rams acquire Sammy Watkins from Bills, Eagles send Jordan Matthews to Bills The Buffalo Bills are going crazy this morning! The Bills announced they have acquired cornerback E.J. Gaines and a 2018 2nd round pick from the Los Angeles Rams for wide receiver Sammy Watkins and a 2018 6th round pick. Additionally, they acquired wide receiver Jordan Matthews and a 2018 3rd round pick from the Eagles for CB Ronald Darby. https://www.ninersnation.com/2017/8/11/16135088/rams-bills-trade-sammy-watkins-eagles-jordan-matthews

What a excellent interview he just had on the Murph show I will be rooting for him to make the 53 , really nice guy

Ragland is still recovering from a serious injury , he will be a good MLB in time. Good thing we still have Preston

I was disappointed that Henderson struggled at LT . Glenn needs to be 100% for regular season

The usual follies dominated the preseason opener as Bills lose 17-10 to Vikings Sal Maiorana, http://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/sports/2017/08/10/bills-vikings-open-preseason-schedule/557670001/
