    Alright, hear me out.  Brandon Beane has proven that he can’t consistently hit on 1st/2nd round picks.  Let’s be honest.  We are going to have a lot of holes to fill after the FA bloodbath.  
     

    Since Beane tends to hit on mid-late round prospects, let’s trade out of the 1st and 2nd round altogether.  Accumulate as many 3rd-5th round picks as possible.  Thanks for reading.

    I hardly ever come on here and this is the first thing I clicked in. What a bizarre take. Fantastic name though, sir.

    Gronk’s father was a quiet, dominant, athletic big guy. His uncle too.

     

    I occasionally competed against him recreationally and scholastically as a youth.

     

    He never acted obnoxious when playing. But, if you got it flaunt it. Gronk here would’ve been fun.

    He was an entitled POS. A small snap shot into that was when he listed his high school on MNF. It was the prep school he went to for half a year. But hey, you’re allowed your own opinion.

    Guessing he's talking about Benford. If you have a rookie cb playing, being a ghost is ideal. Honestly the best corners are invisible. I'll always remember laughing at all the 0's Champ Baileys stats werebas a kid.

     

    I took a lot of pride in having a similar HS career as him. I played basketball so a lil different. I didn't play so much in games... just kinda a practice thing

    Come on. He’s talking basham.either way, the og poster is an idiot.

    I thought new people couldn't make threads for this very reason...

    I know..im clogging the board. We need more information on Steve tasker and kay Adams. If you want to ignore why the GM jumped through hoops to select Ford and he’s been a no show at RT, that’s your prerogative. Personally, I’m sick and tired of watching this mess of an oline. If they don’t get it together Allen will never develop.

    Doubling and tripling down on your original stupidity doesn't make you look smarter, FYI.

    Heel!

    This post makes no sense, your saying God used his divine powers to put Cody Ford on the Bills and that's a bad thing? I mean shouldn't you be amped up that we've got God's chosen O-linemen?

     

    But seriously the idea that Cody Ford is here because he's a good Christian is even more of a ridiculous stretch than the one about Peterman last year.

    I’m saying McDermott went from 6 to 12 because he saw a man of the cloth in Ford. His play in TC thus far doesn’t even come close to justifying beanes reaction. It was like a shoe in hall of famer fell into his lap. It was very bizarre.

    Maybe McD realized how bad the oline sucked last year and he really liked Ford because of his physical style of play.  ? 

    Fair enough!

    Yes clearly there's a ton of evidence Beane defers to McD on draft picks depending on the comparative religiosity of their Twitter feeds

    Again, it was involuntary...it was almost as if Beane had no control over his body and actions when the ford pick was up. I wonder what McDermott was whispering as he was clutching that rosary?

    God intervened and told Beane to select Ford?????  This is second only to Moses getting the commandments or Joseph Smith finding the talking rocks in Palmyra...

    Clearly you didn’t read my post. McDermott intervened and saw a man of faith in Cody Ford. 

    Just now, MJS said:

    Probably because he thought he was a good football player and most thought he would go in round 1. What's the mystery?

    He didn’t share half the excitement for the Oliver pick....

  8. Just now, MJS said:

    The media all copies each other. Someone at some point said that they thought Ford would be better at guard and now everyone is saying it.

     

    But none of them really know what they are talking about. Ford has struggled with speed rushes so far, but there's a long way to go. He's a rookie and will learn.

    And that’s fine it’s early and he’s a rookie...but why was Beane SO over the moon on Ford? You’d think he was plug and play from day 1 based on his reaction.

  9. If you’ve caught Embedded (which was very well made), you’d know that Beane was absolutely SWOON over Cody Ford. When the Panthers leap frogged the Bills you could see the fear and anxiety in his eyes. 10 seconds later, pure relief and julbliation accompanied by high fives. You would have thought the Bills selected 9x pro bowler Walter Jones. It got me to thinking why was Beane so enamored with Ford? Personally I didn’t see it on film, but who am I? Fast forward to today, and I still don’t see it, neither does the media in attendance. Early talks are of switching Ford to G...emphasis on early.

     

    So what is everyone missing that Beane saw that day? It was almost as if he had some sort of epiphany. Then my dear friend dug up this retweet by Cody Ford and it all made sense. The only logical conclusion I can come to is McDermott was controlling Beane via rosary from a few seats over. If you replay the tape from embedded you can see McDermott whispering to himself with a look of concentration on his face.

    Who cares? It will be that much more fun if the Bills rip through their schedule and win a lot of games. 

    Who cares?? Well let’s see. Assuming the bills, “rip through the schedule”  Wouldn’t you rather the rest of the country witness it?? It’s much less likely to be perceived as a fluke if everyone is watching and the game isn’t stuck in 1pm purgatory. Say the bills “rip through their schedule” as you stated, and start hot say 4-1 (which I think is feasible), don’t you think the public perception will be “it’s the bills, they’ve started hot before”

     

    How are people so dismissive??

    I wasn't sure if I should say the Bills Schedule was rough

     

    I heard one earlier and not this one is very similar 

     

    The  Los Angeles Chargers will go six* weeks between games held at their home stadium this fall.  (one international game is a Home Game in that span) 

    Our better looking west coast twin is continually getting hosed as well. This is a perfect example. The Chargers are the buffalo bills lite version. They took over the title for worst injury luck a few seasons back.

    The schedule is out if you haven’t seen this is it:

    Wk 1 at NYJ

    Wk 2 at NYG

    Wk 3 Cincy home opener

    Wk 4 NE

    Wk 5 at TEN

    Wk 6 BYE

    Wk 7 Miami

    Wk 8 Philly

    Wk 9 WSH

    Wk 10 at CLE

    Wk 11 at MIA

    Wk 12 DEN

    Wk 13 at DAL Thanksgiving Day

    Wk 14 BAL

    Wk 15 at PIT

    Wk 16 at NE possible Saturday game

    Wk 17 NYJ

     

    The Good:

    The Bills get an awesome 5 games in their first 8 games. Other then NE and PHI it sets up 6 very winnable games and the opportunity for the Bills to stack a lot of wins. While opening on the road two straight weeks is not preferable, opponent wise they should be able to get at least 1 win as they build forward. There is no killer road portion like we have seen before which is nice. And of course the Bills for the first time since 1994 are playing in Thanksgiving which for many fans like myself is the first time I’ll ever get to see them on the big day. 6 home games before Thanksgiving is a godsend for season ticket holders who were stuck with some crappy non impact December games the last few years.

     

    The Bad:

    Opening two straight on the road is still tough regardless of opponent. If you lose both your starring at an 0-2 hole before your first home game which is not fun. The last 5 games present some truly stiff tests and will be a major make it or break part for their playoff hopes with four AFC games against playoff aspiring teams/NE.

     

    The Ugly: The Bills are irrelevant nationally. Yea they got the Thanksgiving game and yes there is a small shot they get the Saturday game at night vs NE but the other 14 games are all 1pm. I know some people love 1pm games but all that confirms is that nationally this team has no one of attention drawing and no one thinks the Bills matter in the landscape of competition. If they did you would see some 4  pm games and another night game. When the Giants and Redskins get more night games and even Miami has the same number it confirms you a nobody league wide. The only time recently the Bills truly has some national exposure with the Rex disaster. Other then the Bills winning the division this is just another sign by the NFL that the Bills need a new stadium if they want any attention and we really not matter in the general landscape.

    Couldn’t agree more on your primetime point: it’s embaressing to not get granted a prime time game. I thought a young, exciting second year QB would have at least netted one MAYBE two primetime games. The line of thinking “hey I love dem dere 1pm games” is so pre historic and is a very insulated way of thinking. We get it you want to attend a meat raffle or rake dem leaves at 4pm smh.

    That's ? The ? Whole ? Point ?

     

    I don't really care that Buffalo isn't a premier destination because you almost always overpay for "marquee" players, but you either don't understand the argument or deliberately undermined your point in the first sentence.  Did anyone really suggest that the team literally couldn't sign free agents?

     

    If you really can't understand this, look into how everyone, including Antonio Brown, reacted to the possibility that he would become a Bill.

    At least a few people get it...

    Tell this to 

     

    Jerry Hughes 

    Lorenzo Alexander

    Jordan Phillips

    Stephen Hauschka

     

    and the list goes on 

     

     

    RE the taxes 

     

    players pays state income tax for the state in which that week's game was played.

    Not one single player you mention was an established FA. Did they revatlize their careers, sure did. But Hughes, zo, Phillips, hauschka were in a much different senario than a FA in his prime when they came into buffalo. I’d break down each individual situation for you, starting with 55 on a 2nd chance trade but I think (and hope you get the point)
