with decent depth too, especially if Henderson is healthy.

what a brilliant maneuver by Trump (Or is Putin pulling the strings?). Pushing Germany/NATO to carry their own water will push them to improve relations with Russia. Once NATO-Russian relations improve, it will force hardliners in the US to back down.

Looking forward to the Hodges v Coach wrestling match. Just read Hodges was 40-1 in HS.

Would you include Graham in that S group? He'd be a versatile back up.

you can see that in their top 3 picks.

you kill me... good to see that.

from my perspective, both Wall Street and the MIC are driven by greed and power, but the main difference is the MIC requires an enemy to instill fear and justify its flow of trillions of dollars. After the fall of the USSR, defense $ declined under Clinton. 9-11 provided the excuse to declare "war on terrorism" rather than treat it as a police action--war = big $. Now, we also "need" to upgrade our nuclear arsenal because those pesky Russians are a threat to democracies everywhere... Wall Street profits by issuing paper, so their motive is simply to reduce the restrictions/regulations that restrict its ability to issue more paper or from entering new markets. The only "conspiracy" is that it owns the entity that provides bailouts when needed.

With Dawkins at RT, this could be the best O-line the Bills have fielded since the playoff years. They also have great depth, and hopefully can look to trade some of these assets rather than cut. They would be wise to show a lot of Henderson, CK, and Lewis in the preseason for that purpose.

I'd like to see them bring Graham back (on the cheap) at some point.

This should be the story. The recent book on Clinton's campaign "Shattered" states the Russia narrative was "hatched" shortly after the loss by Podesta. The MSM has too much invested in claiming the Russia hack...

As the article states, the family rejects Wheeler's claims because they have not seen any of the evidence. Certainly understandable, but it doesn't mean Wheeler's claims are false at this point. Hopefully we'll find out soon enough. From my standpoint, ignoring the wild claim about why he was murdered, the claim that Rich was the source of the DNC leaks is as credible as Russia hacked the DNC (and used Wikileaks to influence the election). Unfortunately, the MSM is too invested in the "Russia did it" claim to seriously investigate the alternative. Rightly or wrongly, it appears there is a concerted effort to de-legitimize Trump based on this issue. It has also been used by Hillary's camp as the excuse for her loss. Until THIS issue is resolved, it will continue to fuel these wacky conspiracy theories I love so much...

Yes, let's see what kind of coverage this gets.... If it's so obvious, then why so little coverage by the MSM?

I predict Shaq will have more sacks than Mario had the past two years combined.

Pegulas are over their heads...

The Bills can compete for the playoffs IF they don't have injuries at some important positions. Unfortunately, there are currently too many important positions that lack depth. The odds are against them this year.

Probably the strongest unit on the Bills this year is the O-line, and I'm really liking the Dawkins pick. I'm sure this interview was posted somewhere, but this quote stands out: If he wins the starting RT position, this could be the best O-line since the glory days. They will also have great depth with Groy and Lewis backing C/G positions, and Kouandjio, Mills, and Henderson in the T mix. Hope they sign Barnidge as it would solidify the TE position, as it relates to the O-line. If Shady stays healthy, this is going to be a top 10 offense.

he didn't look slow when he sacked Brady.

First time I've heard Zay interview. Smart, well-spoken young man. Picking smart young men over illiterates bodes well for building a winning "team" in the long run.

Sorry, Wayne wins. He'd probably make a better Dude too... I kid.

6-8 is a good range. Much will depend on who is on the field in passing situations. Will Lorax come in for shaq?

I'd rather know who is going to make sure they have 11 players on Defense...

another indication of the new bizarro world, I had to go back 5 entire pages before finding a post where you called someone an idiot. Are you okay?

Not sure if I posted the article here or not, but it suggested that the US would try to support the uyghurs and create instability for China in a region where they are building infrastructure for the new "silk road." I'm pretty sure the military bases in Afghanistan are the most proximate for that purpose.

I certainly don't see a "war" in your sense ever happening between the US and Russia/China. One would think anything that would move in that direction would cause one of the idiots in charge to push "the button." Instead, what we see are "proxy wars" or other threats used as an excuse to position US troops to counter the growing power of mainly China and Russia to a lesser extent. For example, the US and Russia are in a proxy war in Syria; the "threat" from North Korea is being used as an excuse to put a missile defense system in South Korea with its real target China, most likely. I hope you don't think we go to countries for humanitarian reasons or to support democracy? Fomenting uprisings and coups is another form of a proxy war, and Ukraine is a good example of that. I posted some articles in this thread about the "Great Game." If you did not read them, you should.
