If you are an older fan like me, you have always and will always hate the Fish

I think Shavers is this year’s Mack Hollins

Pretty cool. Not sure I’d put little kids in a drifting car like that. Loved the stuff about Tre.

Good points. Maybe we’ll go after McLaurin

Epenesa, a second, and Cook. So make it a first round pick if you want. If Parsons doesn’t want to play there anymore then we have an upper hand in negotiation. Guys that would demand multiple first round picks plus more have names like Allen or Mahomes.

What would you suggest?

I want them to resign Cook. But he could be packaged with Epenesa and a second round pick to get Parsons, or they could package either Samuel or Coleman with Cook to get McLaurin. I think Davis and Johnson could do an adequate job at RB.

Cook, Epenesa and a second round pick for Parsons

I think people are certainly implying it

Either way it was not the fault of trainers

For those saying the amount of injuries are absurd, how would you fix it? Shakir likely came down wrong on his foot to get a high ankle sprain. Not much the training staff can do there. I am all for having good stretching programs, and I am sure a professional training staff has those in place. This is just rotten luck in some cases.

We tend to think we need All Pro level guys at each position which is of course impossible. But we should be pretty solid in the defensive backfield. At corner now with Hairston OK you’re going to have Benford as a shut down type guy, then Hairston and Tre battling it out. And a lot of depth with guys experienced in the system including Jackson, Hardy, and my boy Ingram, plus strong as a rookie. The slot you have Taron, you have Cam Lewis (who is a solid backup there and at S), and Hancock. I actually think this might be the weakest part of our DBs as Taron seemed to take a step back last year. At safety we’re all still a bit spoiled by the Hyde/Poyer due we had for so many years, but Rapp now has a year in the defense under his belt, Bishop as well plus the entire camp this year, and they will be starters. Then you have Forrest and Hamlin as veteran depth, Hancock to develop, and of course Cam Lewis if need be. I think the DBs should also benefit from better rush from the guys up front.

Can be that or a stretch

It is so far. Also, I think our D line is going to generate better pas rush this year which should help our DBs

Let’s hope Hairston is OK. Thankfully Tre is looking like he’s healed up. And my fellow UB alum Ingram will help fill the position.

Mr. Scheib at Franklin Junior High. Math teacher who told us never to add “and” when talking about a number. Example: 242 is two hundred forty two, not two hundred AND forty two. I say it his way almost 60 years later.

I suppose you’re right

Because two stupid teams signed guys to guaranteed contracts.

Just saw something that the procedure went well. Sounds like some sort of congenital heart drfect

No. The general public does not have the knowledge to understand pharmaceuticals. That’s why we have doctors.

We’ll stay just north of Indy where our kids (hopefully grandkids at some point) are, and vacation where we want to go. Unless our governor continues to make Indiana sicker and dumber.

The issue with the Sabres to me are the players. Terry could be a better owner sure, but throughout the drought there have been very good players on the roster who have done great before or after their Sabres time, but didn’t perform at that level in Buffalo. What is needed is a captain that runs the locker room and will not accept anything less than maximum effort from everyone on the roster. Eichel wasn’t that, Okposo wasn’t, and I have my doubts about Dahlin. The players need to step up and play hard. Many of them go through the motions. My biggest example is Power. The next time I see him stand a guy up at the blue line or move a guy from in front of the net will be my first. I’d trade him and keep Bowen.
