Some were improvements. Bears in Packers colours was just bizarre. -
McDermott establishing Leadership Council amongst players
Manther replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agree on the differences between Rex and McD and love it. Regarding Rex....I don't think he was that loved by players or anyone. I always just thought it was built up by media before and during Buffalo without any basis. Agreed! -

Agreed! It's seems like simple, common knowledge......but, I guess it wasn't with Rex. -
Getting the top pick in 2018 ?

Love it! Seriously was laughing out loud! That is so funny on so many different levels! -

most mocks have bills taking williams

Agreed. We didn't lose Gilmore because we didn't want to pay him. We lost him because we didn't deem him worth that alotmnet of the cap. Either because where we valued the position, valued Gilmore and where we valued Gilmore vs the position. I think the only two times in recent years we could say we mismanged the cap was the offering of the contracts to Byrd and Spiller. But, we don't know exactly what those contracts were. I don't think anyone knows what we really offered Byrd. But, what we do know is we valued Aaron Williams at $6.25/M a year. So, I would say we did a great job and there was a freak injury. So, the only cap mismangement I can think of IMO is $4/M year for Spiller that he didn't take. That would have been a waste of cap space and roster spot. Overall, great track record for the last 5 years approx! Right or wrong, the signings of Dareus (I would have liked clauses and would always when some has a previous suspension) being DL, Jerry Hughes as pass rusher and Cordy Glenn at LT are all going rate or less. The good thing IMO is the Bills are valuing the correct positions to pay the money and then still looking to get a cap friendly deal done. Jerry and Cordy are cap friendly at good positions.

Agreed, which I think is a good thing. If they wanted or needed to kick the can down the road they could have. So, I think that is promising that we have options and flexibiltiy to kick it and secondly, that we didn't and will be in a great cap situation moving forward. Once again, I think they have a plan and are sticking to it.

Radio Buzz in Denver about trading up with Buffalo
Manther replied to TC in St. Louis's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Hybrid, also does STs, also does gadget plays are 3 things that usually don't live up to a top 20 pick. It's rare that they do. Danny Woodhead in his youth isn't worth a first, IMO Agreed....sort of. If Hooker, all QBs and all WRs are there unless you love one over all the rest you trade back. But, those aren't all going to be there at 10. Agreed....sort of. If Hooker, all QBs and all WRs are there unless you love one over all the rest you trade back. But, those aren't all going to be there at 10. Meh, love the player vs a couple of shots. If you love someone at 10 overall then you are thinking a playmaking 10 year career minimum IMO. You don't pass that up. Depends where you rank that player vs all players in other drafts. And, vs all players at the same positions in other drafts. -

Manther replied to TC in St. Louis's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I would too UNLESS you loved one player and they were there at 10. Yes, I would be very pleased with both options. That would involve the PERFECT storm! Go Bills! Yes, I would be very pleased with both options. That would involve the PERFECT storm! Go Bills! -
Exactly! And, before we didn't spend money and fill an NFL caliber roster and now we don't have comp picks that we never had before. I get that we are all frustrated and bitter with this century of football. But, it is amazing what it has done to so many of us fans and we are more excited to be angry than excited it is getting better. I stay positive (most of the time) and in reality our long term plan is so much better and we are executing it with growing pains. There are no perfect people, just perfect intentions and we are trying to build this the right way with some growing pains. We will get there. It is going to be okay. But, i do come on this site less because of the angry folks that are just bitter and full of hate. The ones that like to blame, blame, blame, without even logically thinking things thru. Misery loves company and I try to stay away from that. You all should too because we are closer to than farther away than any point in this century. We are getting closer to what we all want. Embrace and enjoy it.

Bills fire 3 long-time staffers and Team Chaplain
Manther replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think you are wrong. Good people don't mean they are good at their job. I surely don't think you can judge Coach McD on this with no info on why at all. Different philosophies....McD has been evaluating for two months, this isn't a knee jerk reaction. Your comments seem to be a knee jerk reaction. Changing losing ways and losing cultures is a great thing. -
Who is still mad we tanked the Jets game?

compensatory picks counter for 2018 Billsy update.
Manther replied to cba fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If Hunter and Manuel don't count I would think that some of the guys we signed were rated further down than 997 too? I agree great teams get comp picks. But, that is because years of good drafting and developing talent. Comp picks are a product of having a great organization. A poor organization or less than great can't focus on comp picks. I believe we are closer to that than years ago. The Bills, currently, need to focus on drafting good players and developing them (the means to a good organization) and then a good organization will follow (and comp picks too). -
Breakout Season for Shaq Lawson in 2017?
Manther replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Healthy....I expect and hope for great things from Shaq and Sammy! IF TT is the breakout player we all win! Hope it's all 3! -
I hate in this order.... 1. Patriots 2. Jets 3. Dolphins 4. Bears - terrible fans (poor knowledge, dumb and dangerous)
