    Rd 7, Pick 221: OT Travis Clayton

    I think this is an important point.   He might actually make the team as a special teamer.   I know that sounds nuts, but think about it for a minute.   Kickoffs are going to be unlike anything we've seen, literally.  Every player, including experienced players, are going to be learning completely new tactics about how make those plays.   So, unlike the rest of the game, Clayton is not going to be as far behind the curve as any ordinary position player.  At least of kickoff coverage.   Even on kickoff receiving, he just won't be as far behind the curve.   

     

    Then, if he actually could have role on kickoffs, then you start thinking about about place kicking.   It's not out of the question to teach him to be an interior line blocker.   Not a ton of football complexity there.   Eventually, he might report as eligible on the kick coverage team, and he might be a great threat on fakes.   And it's not out of the question to put him on the kick block team, either.    All stuff he could more quickly than the complexity of playing on the offense or defense.  

     

    I just read something that for him to make the practice squad, he has to clear waivers first.   He doesn't get a pass to the practice squad.  I doubt any team would sign him to their 53, sight unseen, but it is a risk.

    I thought he just hit his head on the cloud so now he can stay cause he has a boo boo

    I would like to start discussing things we should do this September for the 25th Anniversary Tailgate... Current ideas:

     

    1. Shirts with a 25th logo
    2. Looking at a Dinner Cruise
    3. Golf tournament
    4. Bottle of Blanton awarded to best tailgate sandwich (inside joke)
    5. etc...

     

    Looking for a discussion on activities, venues, etc....

     

    Please take off-topic conversations elsewhere. Much appreciated.

    I think it is a great idea.

     

    Just my 2 cents.

     

     

    1) go to chestnut ridge park and get one of the pavilions.  Everyone local can bring a different meal and all share. Pay the the liquor permit and then people can also drink you can sell and or distribute the shirts and other items there. You can also do a 50 50 raffle for bills gear. Proceeds of course go towards paying for the pavilion.

     

    My mom was the psga secretary for 20 years and if you tell people where and when they we come. If you leave it up to the masses it may not ever get done.

    Does ja17 have a great oc as a coach. Nope

     

    Does ja have an offensive line that gives (holds) him 4 plus seconds to dance around. Nope.

     

    Does ja17 have a teammate that has a girlfriend who is world famous. Nope

     

    Does ja have a defense that came to his aid 4 years in a row in the playoffs.  Nope

     

    Does ja have a punter and field goal kicker that kick for 55 yarders.  Nope.

     

    When ja throws and the def are playing man and the play breaks down Does he just run for the first down.  Nope

     

    Does the rat have extra man stay in the pocket to block.  Nope

    Allen finished 5th in MVP voting apparently.

     

    As a side note, man it seems like the people that vote on this are really sick of Mahomes.

    Well I known that Thad brown gets a vote and I'll give you 2 cents if you can figure out who he voted for

    I contend that this team's problem isn't coaching, it's talent.

    Did you watch last year when Metcalf was in the playoffs 😳 op.

     

    Maybe not let me remind you he was crying on the bench yeah.  Cause he disappeared in that game.

     

    So for the record put your 10 draft pics here in your post trade up or down if need be on draft day the player has to be there when we pick. So we can come back to this 2 years from know and see how you did.

     

     

    Not wait 3 years later and say we should have picked him.

    Type O is considered a “universal donor” FYI. 

    Though I believe if recipient if Type O they can only receive from Type O candidates. 

    Yes correct o neg universal donor. 

     

    But in liver donations there are other factors also put if type o he has a much greater chance of getting a new liver.

    Bills Mafia member Buffalo Ron's son needs a liver transplant

    He hasn't been placed on the list yet, This is from the guy's wife:

     

    https://www.gofundme.com/f/ezras-liver-transplant

    [the liver transplant list stuff is bolded:]

     

    "Hi! I’m Karen, Ezra’s mom.

    I’ve been trying to gather my thoughts and process what is going on.

    When we were first called about this precious boy, the very little information given included the statement, “…he’ll probably need a liver transplant within the year.”

    We said yes to him, not knowing how long he’d stay. It’s been ‘easy’ to know he might need a transplant SOMEDAY while not needing a transplant now. His first year with us was eventful, with travel, hospitalizations, and surgeries. We had a solid 3 years of relatively good health, and the ability to focus on other needs he has (speech, PT, sleep). You wouldn’t know he’s sick. He is a ball of charm and energy and is going at 110% at all times.

    I was given the impression that our trip to NYC for transplant evaluation was “very preliminary” and that there was still the possibility to try other interventions. That this was just to create a chart for him and get baseline information documented with the liver team.

    That was not the case. I can describe it only as an orientation. We had consults with each individual of the liver transplant team (2 of which know Ezra from his time in NY in 2019 - one is the surgeon that fixed him up then). Surgeons, infectious disease, nutrition, social work, cardiology, ultrasound, bloodwork, echo…it was a long few days for our guy. All this to say, he’s going on the list. His liver has been declining and since the summer he’s had bloodwork, ultrasound, endoscopy, MRI, and biopsy. There’s so much scar tissue (cirrhosis) that blood isn’t filtering through efficiently. This is putting extra pressure on other organs and can ultimately put stress on his heart and lungs. He has an enlarged spleen already.

    We are still early in the process and his surgeon shared with me the advantages to getting him on the list now -

    1) he’s well, not in and out of the hospital, fighting infections, etc. This means that we don’t have to settle for the first liver that comes along. We can be choosy.

    2) the longer he’s on the list, even if lower priority at first, the easier it is to get him bumped up based on length of time waiting.

    3) we have time to find a living donor match, which may give us more control over preparing, planning, and scheduling.

     

    That said, Ezra can accept a living donor and we have a QR code that leads to a questionnaire for anyone that may want to consider donating.

     

    So, whether we have the luxury of choosing a date on the calendar, or we get a call at 3am on a Sunday that we gotta go, recovery is going to be a whole journey for our family. We are to expect about a week in the PICU following transplant. He will have follow up visits multiple times weekly for the first month post-op, then weekly for months 2-3, then every other week for months 4-6. He will likely continue to be seen in NYC 1-2 times per year indefinitely. He will be discharged from the hospital on somewhere near a dozen medications. His immune system will be suppressed. If all goes smoothly, we’ll be able to live at the Ronald McDonald House. Yes. Live there.

    Im worried for this little boy and what he’s about to go through. I’m worried for my kids who really can’t comprehend how our lives are about to change, even if temporarily. I’m worried for the logistics, finances, everyone’s mental and emotional health, and our littlest baby as well.

    We are going to be trying to put together a plan for when this happens, as well as hoping to have a ‘go plan’ for if things do happen suddenly at any point. We are grateful for our famil. Our support system. Our VILLAGE. We know that we’re going to need you more than ever and we are trusting that God will be calling you to tally around Ezra and our family in all the different ways.

    Any funds raised will help with travel expenses and supporting our guy through this."

     

    ----

     

    second post:

     

    Oh, and the fund is now:

     

    "$2,782 raised of $100,000 goal"

    Also see if you can find out Ezra's blood type would be more likely to find a living donor with more common blood types 

    O positive or negative.

     

    Thanks 😊

    Mahomes did that? Is that documented anywhere? Not saying you're wrong but I couldn't find anything. That's straight trash if he did that.

    It was during his brother's trail. The rat said people should avoid the best.  The chiefs had the info redacted 😳.

    I would have to say classless is some jerk crying because he did not get his way in the last game and saying our fans are classless for throwing snowballs at his face

     

     

    Sorry dude go to Philly see what they throw.

     

    Publicly go out and say bad things about a restaurant owner after your brother punched her and he went to jail.  Tell your fans not to go to her restaurant any more

     

     

    That is classless
