    It makes sense to pass on excellent players like Randy Moss, Ricky Williams , Warren Sapp, Von Miller etc because everyone smokes pot. ?

    OK, you mentioned the star players. Well done.

     

    How about all the fringe players not playing up to their potential because they are stoning and not in best physical shape, or not studying tape like they ought to.

    I could see this as something Beane might be willing to do

    Yes. Beane is willing to trade back further up into the first. He's also equally willing to stand-pat.

     

    Beane is a enigma wrapped in a riddle. He will do what best addresses the board as he sees it, he's a value player.

     

    There will be no Sammy Watkins type trades this draft. You heard it here 101st.

    Are winning GM's smarter drafters than journalists doing mock drafts

     

    GM's have information from scout visits that journalists don't have. This makes GMs better informed (smarter in your words).

     

    GMs have insights from their scouts:  personal observations watching a game, interviewing coaches and often.. interviewing the prospect.

     

    GMs are fully informed, except Cincinnati who don't employ scouts.

     

    Winning and losing GMs kick the arse of the Kipers any day of the week.

    I wish I was able to talk to my mom but she could not hear cell phone, does not text and I have not been able to be in touch with her this year despite multiple calls.

    My condolences for your loss.

     

    I've been through this with both Mom and Dad and have this request based on experience  --- be kind to yourself during this time. Don't beat yourself up second guessing. Beating yourself just adds needless pain. You did the best you could under the circumstances.

  5. Bringing this back on topic of the forum.. this means two things to Bills fans:

     

    1. Newspapers have been in a death spiral for years. Bills coverage has degraded, and will continue to degrade as Lee Corp. cuts expenses.

    2. Countdown to loss of print edition and only a digital edition commences now. It will be digital only within the next 3 years. When we win the Superbowl, there won't be a souvenir print edition to buy for posterity.

     

    As a former Courier Express paperboy, it saddens me to see the decline of print.

    Jerry Hughes - ligaments may be healed up enough, depending on specifics?

     

    I have had ligaments heal up without surgery. I wore a walking boot for 6 weeks.

     

    Since Jerry reportedly played with torn ligaments, maybe it's a mild case that can be addressed without surgery.

    Reminder that tomorrow, January 14th 2020, Windows 7 reaches it's end of life.  Unless you are paying Microsoft an exorbitant amount of cash to provide updates, you will no longer receive software or security updates

     

    Time to upgrade to Windows 10 or give Linux a try

    I use both Windows 7 and Linux. I use Linux much more. I use Windows 7 primarily for Adobe applications.

     

    I guess I'll fork over the $100 to get windows 10.
