Explain how average can be good.

He is not a good football player. This is smart.

13?! Beane be like, let me show you how to turn 13 into 3.

Sills!? ?

Bleh. Predictable ending to an impossible scene. I can’t imagine making a zombie army is an easy task. The remaining episodes should be far more epic...unless....

Right but that’s the kind of answer one gets when they go to the land of make believe where GMs do everything better because they cash bigger checks. The draft was fine. The Singletary pick was flawed. The same folks had the same responses when posters like myself bagged on Ragland on draft day. It’s the off-season, everyone is excited, I get it. We all want the Bills to be good. That doesn’t mean everything has to be sunshine and rainbows.

My 100 dollar part time scouting service said Nate Peterman needed a pitching mound long before he was drafted by the Bills. The million dollar decision makers took two years to get that one fixed. I Dun Kno Nuffin.

That’s my one problem with the draft. Why draft Singletary who is by all accounts a low ceiling borderline contributor? That’s easy to find in the UDFA pile. They could have taken Butler, a high upside monster. Goodluck finding that in UDFA. I know a common reply will be well a lot of teams passed on him. What’s that matter? A lot of teams pass on plenty of good players. I’m pissed, not only because I like the player but because that type of thinking is flawed. A limited RB is about as valuable as a one legged punter.

I haven’t been home all day and can’t find it on the google machine, what happened in the 4th round? Did the Bills trade out? If so, what did they get in return.

It was on the Felger and Mazz radio show, they didn’t go into other positions because they were talking about Harry and WRs. Bert Breer was part of the segment. I was surprised but it made sense, a ton of WRs are drafted, most teams use 5-6 but so many guys never make an impact. Bill B. says it’s the hardest position to predict because WR in college don’t do things that they have to do at the next level.

WR has the highest bust rate of all positions. Out of all WRs drafted in the past 6 years IIRC correctly only 15% made one pro bowl. That stat was on the radio here yesterday as Patsies fans debated the Harry pick. Butler has a huge wing span, height, strength. Smart kid. I watched his highlights, then I watched more of him. It’s rare that a guy that big is as fluid as he is. He trained with CJ this offseason, he wants it. I don’t watch nearly as much CFB as I’d like but when I latch onto a player I’d like to think my success rate is pretty good. Whoever gets Butler is going to be happy. That’s my guess.

Anyone else hoping that they trade up again in the 4th and get Butler? He is going to be a star, I can’t believe he is still there.

Draft Miles Sanders.

Butler. He has everything the Bills look for, hard worker, great back story, he wasn’t recruited by major schools much like Allen. Worked his tail off.

Hakeem Butler is the guy.

He is stiff, I’m glad he went to the Patriots. It will be easy to revisit later.

Hakeem Butler. Pats took the wrong big guy.

Damn.

Beane impressed me, he has shown that he will be aggressive when he needs to be and then he makes the easy pick this year when it’s staring him in the face. I hope the board falls our way again tomorrow night.

Are you less than a year old? Parents should be proud of that home school’n

Unless you’re trading down this is the right pick. I’m happy with it. Now get Hakeem Butler.

Eric Ebron then Hock. Lions fans drowning themselves in puddles.

I love you Gunner but didn’t you have the real Josh Allen as a 3rd rounder.

Giants force a pick and take Allen

The white out didn’t work for the Winnipeg Jets.
