    As I posted earlier, I went for a slice and wings with a buddy. He ordered 20 to have leftovers. I had 2, there were no leftovers. WOW. AND, he just texted me 10 seconds ago about some wing joint in Atlanta (near me) that beat the Anchor Bar in some ranking. 

     

    It’s almost like we have chicken wing missionaries! Sharing the good wing around the world! 

     

    I think it would be awesome to open up a pizzeria down south 

     

    Only thing is EVERY Pizzeria owner will tell you it's the water up here that makes the dough and crust so good...

     

    it doesnt turn out the same way in TX, FL, NC etc... I know someone who wanted to ship water from buffalo to his place in Florida lol

    Not in Buffalo, but the owner of the place is from Buff.

     

    Every pizza and wing joint that I've ever gone to down the east coast and out west was operated and owned by a Ex Buffalonian 

     

    If there is anything that we do correctly up here it's pizza and wings ... and Tailgating

    Just sat down at my local wing spot that offers 20 for $10 on Monday’s thanks to this thread. I always forget about it, thanks folks.

    I went with the charred BBQ.

     

    I take it this place isn't in Buffalo :P

     

    price is too good. I do love charred BBQ which is what I opened this thread with 

  4. I'll honestly miss Gaines a bit , now that it looks like he won't be back

     

    Hopefully Davis thinks he's still got big game left (hence the 1 year deal for bigger $$ down the road) and he meshes well with our secondary 

     

    We upgrade our nickel spot by a bit and our secondary looks really nice

    TY 716. I respect your opinion and the purpose of this topic.  Sorry I got on such a tangent. Old guys like me tend to do that ! Glad we communicated privately to discuss further.  thanks again, brother

     

    I've been around long enough and around football players long enough to know that we butt heads sometimes

     

    coaches and players, players and coaches, coaches and coaches disagree 

     

    its why football is beautiful because you can have a guy like Fred Jackson, who the whole league passed on for years and told him he wasn't good enough ... show them he was tremendous and deserving 

     

    Tony Romo was also undrafted and told he wasn't good enough to make it... 50,000 passing yards later...

     

    hell I'll argue corners all day because it's my specialty, but I don't know everything about oline

    you watched a different game. If you can find it, watch it. If you still think so.....hmmmmm. He was blocking better competition. I have 4 Ohio St. games and three Iowa games. And yes he is a much, much better player. Price is a bigger yet more finesse player. Do we really want a swingman who may be a little above average or a great Center  who has not even turned 21 yet.

     

    You seem to be one of the few who thinks price isn't the #1 center 

     

    Daniels is good but I don't believe he's on Prices level... they can be equal... it's tough to translate centers 

     

    I definitely wouldn't say Daniels is way way better ... that makes him sound like an All pro and price like a UDFA

     

    Price will be a starting center day 1 for a long time

    Drafting center in the first, is how you go on a 17 year playoff drought. 

     

    Travis Frederick and Maurice pouncey certainly helped keep their QBs upright 

     

    Zach Martin was a damn good 1st round pick for a interior lineman as well

     

    late first is exactly the time to take an elite interior lineman. Especially if he's best available. Quintin Nelson if he was there is a no brainer

     

    Eric wood certainly wasnt the reason we didn't make the playoffs for 18 years and he was a great late first pick

     

    this is all about if we don't take a QB in the first... if we don't , then bolstering our line is definitely a way to go. No DE is worth this pick and probably not LBr

     

    get an elite player 

     

    i would never advocate to take one top 10 but with a late first I would... we can end up with a lot of busts at 21-22

     

    Id just like at least 1 blue chipper with our 21-22 picks

    Man, too bad Quenton Nelson is a top 10 lock, he is a future HOFer, he is my favorite player in the draft. I think Connor Williams is going to be an All Pro RT as well. If Cordy Glenn is traded, Dawkins and Connor Williams would make for a disgusting OL.

     

    Hes a monster. But will be gone...  Price looks like a future all pro as well and even though I like Groy, they aren't in the same league talent wise

    Hehe... they tell you that medium is hot. Mild is the way to go for me at least. Last time I had them at the Dick road location was when the Bills played the Bengals, at home, and Jimi Hendrix was the QB. No complaints, the wings were excellent... and the chick we had serving us was very cool too.

     

    Yep I forget to mention that they say mild is medium, medium is hot, hot is really hot lol

    I see a lot of mock drafts that pick the top 4 QB'S.  Why is Mason Rudolph NOT in the discussion more?  Am I missing something here?  His TD's, passer rating etc all look very good, his arm is big, he seems to fit the physical profile as well.  

     

    Any thoughts on Bills grabbing him?  any red flags on the guy?

     

    He is not a bad Prospect... he comes from a full spread system and made easy reads and doesn't have as strong of an Arm as you'd like from a guy his size

     

    he can develop but he should sit a while

    Before Wood was forced to retire by his neck injury, there was zero mention of the Bills drafting Price.   I don't think Price would be a bad pick, but with Ryan Groy ready to step in to a starting role at center (the Bills are paying him like a starter) it is hardly the position of greatest need for the Bills.  I think that it is this mistaken perception of desperate need that is driving most of the national hype surrounding Price to Buffalo.  I just want to shake these guys and tell them, "The Bills just are not that desperate at center."  What about a really good WR, or a MLB with the athleticism to really make the McDermott defense click.  It wouldn't even be a terrible idea to double up on defensive tackles in the first round (not to even mention QB).  If I were GM, (be glad that's not the case) I would be more to look for a backup interior offensive lineman with upside a little later in the draft.

     

    I also thought it was a little odd that Reuter referred to both Kyle Williams and Harrison Phillips as nose tackles.  I see both of them as one gap 3 tech guys who are decent at stopping the run with a good nose tackle next to them, but who's real strength is creating disruption in the backfield with initial quickness and superior hand fighting technique.  Am I wrong?

     

    Kyle Williams best fit is definitely as a penetrating 3 tech 

     

    but

     

    he has played the nose for us in his career... quite effectively too... but he was more of a 1 gap penetrating NT, not a 2 gap space eater

    So, why would Groy play guard this year, when he’s the backup center?  Or do we have to draft 2 centers, price and his backup.

     

    Sorry if this has has been asked and answered already. Just started reading the thread

     

    That's a good question... you can certainly have Groy play Center and Price guard but you would want a blue chipper like Price as the Center making the line calls

     

    Centers can usually transition to guard pretty smoothly...

     

    we can sign a backup perhaps after the draft if we went this route
