There is an issue with mid-level players staying in school because NIL money is more than 5th round pick money so the bottom half of this draft is indeed week. It will correct itself in a year or so but the lower-round guys will be older than we are used to.
Plus we are still working through the COVID bonus year stuff.

Penix is a 6th year college quarterback
Who has major shoulder surgery... And a reconstructed ACL
Great college player and I really do hope the best for him as I do all players....
But man... I didn't have him in my top 45 or so players
2 ACLs.

Right now, the Bills have a couple slot guys, and some 4th or 5th tier filler. Hope Beane has some big moves in store for tomorrow, since there is no 1 or 2 on the team. He also said he didn't think there were 28 guys in this draft worthy of a 1st round grade-- so he won't be getting anything like that with the picks that are left.
The #1 receiver on this team plays TE.

Everyone, I just read the news that the 49ers were on the phone all evening trying to trade one of their veteran receivers. Rumor has it that Deebo is even more available than Aiyuk, but I would not be surprised to see the Bills land one of them over night, while keeping the first pick of the 2nd round.
I read that post with you bursting through a door all out of breath. It gave me a giggle.

I hadn't considered that angle, but it makes sense. They could be trying to buy time or more appropriately match trade value. The big question is whether they can make a veteran acquisition work under the cap.
I have no idea where the money comes from for something like this. That tweet honestly feels like copium to keep Bills fans from losing their minds.
I agree they have all day to work out a trade, but it's not for Higgins or Aiyuk or Samuel.
I hope it's not anyway. Higgins is good, but he's not Batman. He's Robin. You don't pay Robin. Chase is Batman. Aiyuk is a nice player, but stud #1? I don't think so. Samuel? He's a fun player, but does he give them what they need on the outside? Plus all of these guys will be insanely expensive to keep onboard which is why they are available in the first place.
They'll take a WR or two still, have them on cheap deals for 4 years and move forward.

Didn't the Bills get the Chiefs 3rd as part of the trade for 28?
Yes, but we gave them one of our 4s in the deal, it was a swap, not an additional pick.

To prevent from the bills trading to another team.
also Legette is considered raw so having the 5th year option may be desirable.
He's already 23, was a 5th year Senior, and is raw. That should concern people. He will be 28 after his rookie deal and that makes signing a second contract difficult because the decline for WRs is pretty much a certainty past 30-31.

Colts GM said that they had only 20 guys with first round grades. Deep draft and the Bills get more picks. Works for me.
It's not a deep draft at all. That's why they are prioritizing moving their later round picks forward. We aren't selecting additional players this year, we are just getting to pick them sooner. If it were a deep draft they'd be adding selections. Rounds 6 and 7 are basically throw aways this year. There just aren't that many guys with draftable grades this year.
I wouldnt be shocked if they move down again tomorrow. I'm disappointed that they haven't been able to add an additional 3rd and have only been able to do swaps so far. Maybe tomorrow is different but I'd guess it would be another pick swap. Maybe one of the 5s to a 4 now.

Could it be everyone's wet fantasy Xavier Legette? Going right in front of Carolina who he said wanted him at 33.
If Carolina wants him that badly I'll take another 3rd to drop down a spot.

Worthy is as light as a feather I like him but won't trade up for him. I much rather stay put and take the freight train that's Xaxier Leggette 220lbs at 4.37 is serious explosiveness. Leggette was also the fastest tracked player by mileage last yr as he was tracked at over 22 miles per hour. The combo of speed and strength the blocking abilities the after the catch abilities I don't care if he's 23yrs old the man can be a monster in this game. He reminds me of a faster Eric Moulds and like Moulds coming out wasn't the best route runner coming out of college but he can learn that easily because he has the movement skills.
If he can learn that easily, why has he not learned it. Dude was a 5th year senior.

The game presentation/sound sucks the life out of the place as well. Music is turned up way too loud and pushes me into my seat. Players' individual goal songs are also very lame and suck the energy out of a crowd after a goal and pushes everyone back into their seats.
The individual goal songs are a perfect symbol for this team. Individual stats, no team unity.

Hired to get Sabres culture back on track!
It all started with guys like Imlach and Bowman from other organizations. Winning organizations. Lindy just so happens to reach so far back to that past. Sabres roots!
We need something to connect to the legacy... The rink is a morgue in BFLo!
The rink is a morgue because there is no faith. Nor should there be. The team was terrible at home for a long time this year and if they gave up the first goal they only came back to win 6 times. In January it was only once. They were something like 1-11 if they got scored on first at home at that point. They ended up 6-15. They were better at home later in the year but by that point they'd already burned any good will or hope the fans had.
They need to show people they are for real before people buy back in. It's just been too long at this point. I used to get nice tickets for Sabres/Flyers games in Philly from a business associate. I've stopped asking for them. They are a waste of time.
History says this nostalgia hire is a tremendous mistake. The odds of a Terry team bucking history are low.

Has there ever been a situation where the second go round with a coach has been better than the first? I can't think of any off hand.

Not to mention why should anyone tell other people what to support or not support?
I'm confused. Am I supposed to support this statement or not?

Why would anyone want to pay $925 million dollars (and probably be asked to help with finances for the team) and have no say in anything?
Because you get invited into a really exclusive group and it puts you at the front of a very short line to get the chance to be a majority owner in the future. Jimmy Haslam was a minority owner of the Steelers before he was allowed to buy the Browns.

This has happened so many more times than this with prop betting. They just haven't caught people. The only way they caught this guy is because he's such a fringe player that the betting activity was easy to spot. If it were a more popular player, for example Calvin Ridley, who already has more money placed in his props, it would be much harder to catch.
Betting is out of the bag, but these prop bets need to go away. It's way too easy for an individual person to control the outcome to a prop bet on something that specific person does in a game. It's hard to fix a whole game without a conspiracy. It's easy to drop a pass to keep yourself from scoring, or from going over a specific number of catches, etc. Super easy.
I realize that some will say why do it? They have so much to lose. People have problems and also get themselves into situations where they are vulnerable to outside control. That's why they do it.

I never cheer when someone loses their job but this had to happen.
I think that ⬆️ puts things into perspective.
Granato was routinely out-coached and he’s had no answer for the adjustments teams have made to defending Buffalo.
I am nervous that they are just going to promote Seth Appert. There were already rumors about it before Granato was fired. I will be beyond pissed if that happens.
That would be the FOURTH head coach IN A ROW without any NHL head coaching experience. You can’t do that. You can’t hire back to back to back to back inexperienced head coaches.
They 100% need to hire a head coach with experience, and there are a few good ones currently sitting unemployed.
I don’t really want to bring Lindy back, but I’d take him over Appert if those were my 2 choices. I’d rather they hire someone like Berube or Boudreau or heck, even give me Quenneville (though I doubt that happens).
Not Gallant. He’s not what Buffalo needs. I think he would be a poor fit.
Brind’amor is my dream hire. He still hasn’t signed an extension in Carolina (afaik) and I believe his contract expires this offseason.
Pegula should throw a pile of money at him! lol
Brind'Amour isn't happening.

I think DK Metcalf is an all out world beater but I just don't see us doing something splashy. It's not like we're one player away. We need a center, some back 7 defenders and another pass rusher. Expecting Josh to win every game for us is fool's gold.
Yeahhhhh, but Josh with a guy who can and will just go get the football has to be intriguing.

For the record, I haven't liked Miller since the first day they signed him.

How is McConkey's back? It was an issue all last season.
