If we can snag one of Avila, JSM, Tillman, Torrence, Ojulari, Sanders, or Simpson, then I’d be pretty stoked.

Just wait til Dorsey diligently dinks-n-dunks downfield, drawing up a TD to Dion Dawkins. Edit: Old Prospector with Gus Chiggins is maybe the best skit ever cut from SNL. Username props.

If you ain’t tuckin’, then you ain’t… well, y’know… aka The Tuck Rule. Edit: Given our 2 TEs both have DK initials, how about Dawson is Donkey Kong and Dalton is Diddy Kong?

Honestly he wasn’t really on my radar. But I’m quickly warming up to the pick. I get the mismatches, can see how good his receiving ability is, and like that they took an offensive playmaker. Don’t really see the Beasley/Slot comparisons. Just such different players. Kincaid isn’t getting open as quickly, but he’s going to catch the contested throws and then push for a few more yards. Overall I like the pick. Cant find his RAS - anyone have luck?

Any way to watch draft on phone for free if living in Buffalo? ABC app says “no soup for you”

Should have made Nothingmore like the Raven by Poe. Also, how would it not happen tonight? The prevailing theory is this first round trade back I thought. Where’d that theory come from anyway?

I’d be ecstatic to somehow come out of this with Hopkins and say… Flowers. Who do you cover? Still draft OL & LB with top 2 remaining picks. A WR3 in the modern NFL doesn’t get buried anywhere. They are practically a full time starter.

1-2, depending on who, of Hopkins, JSN, Addison, Flowers, Downs, Reed, Mingo 1-2 of Torrence, Wright, Avila, Johnson Jr., Jones, Wright, JMS 1 of Simpson, Sanders, Campbell, Ojulari, Sewell A solid DT prospect

My pappy said, "Son, you're gonna' drive me to drinkin' If you don't stop drivin' that Hot Rod Lincoln."

Better be a TikTok dance. Hoping it was just the money and not also having a deal in place for Hopkins that got Lamar signed.

1. Name the first 5 players draft in order (Feel free to name the teams as well for bonus points) Young (CAR), Stroud (HOU), Anderson Jr. (ARI), Levis (IND), Carter (SEA), in that order, sir! 2. How many trades will be in the first round? 3. 3. Will the Bills trade up, back, or stay put? Stay put. 4. Will DHop be traded today? (doesn't mean he is traded for a first round pick). Bonus points to identify the team he is traded to Yes, to the only NFL team in NYS. 5. Who will the Bills pick? Avila. 6. How many RB's will go in the first round? 1. 7. How many QB's will go in the first round? 5. 8. Will ESPN cut to commercial if/when the Bills make their selection? This is the way. 9. Who will be the biggest reach pick of the draft (Yes, I know this up for debate. Gruden made it so easy with the Raiders) Bijon Robinson. 10. Which college will have the most players selected in the first round Georgia and Ohio State tie.

Avila. 3 years starting experience. Team captain. Versatility across the line. Let him compete at LG, C, RG, and RT. Not a single sack in 515 pass-blocking snaps in his final season. Protect JA17.

But what about comp picks?

I say take Flowers at 27 and trade a combination of mid round picks and/or Oliver for Hopkins.

Chargers selected the Jordan Addison option at 21

Yeah Cleveland especially at that time was probably not a great place to start his career, although I think he was from near that area so was probably cool for him.

Yeah that trade makes no sense especially when you see it next to the other trade option. Is there a salary retention aspect to either we should know about? Edit: Also, I love Flowers as a cost-controlled prospect, but that second trade is too good to pass up and 34 seems a better spot for overall value. Edit edit: Switched vote to Flowers after trade clarification. Think Cole Beasley+ combined with John Brown+. Dude can work the middle and stretch the field.

As an Irish fan, I thought Brady Quinn was going to be a good NFL QB. Side note, I still wonder how Jeff Samardzija would have fared as a WR in the NFL, even though he made the right choice in going instead to the MLB.

April Showers Bring Zay Flowers

Seeing this guy at Helium:

The wheel is turning and you can't slow down, You can't let go and you can't hold on, You can't go back and you can't stand still, If the thunder don't get you then the lightning will.

Anyone pretending a HoF QB to NJ doesn’t matter is just that - pretending. Still, if NJ does crumble and miss the playoffs, then it will be all so much sweeter to watch.

Not that it’s exactly the same, but Beane has drafted the same position in back to back rounds more than once.

The game against Chicago in 2014 when Fred Jackson carried the team (and a couple Bears) on his back for the W. Was driving back to Buffalo from Indiana and the further I got from Chicago the worse the station reception got. I believe it cut out completely right before OT. I was not happy… until of course I learned we won by 3 in OT.
