I remember reading some stuff just after he was drafted that kinda gave me a good feeling on him. Beane said that a number of other GMs texted/called to give him the business on selecting Shakir. Apparently, those short arms really brought his draft stock down as some GMs told Beane they were gonna snag him in the 6th or 7th, or make a lucrative UDFA offer.
Just read the dudes scouting report. He's a McBeane Era Buffalo Bill to a T. One of those, "great player, better person" types. He has the leadership they covet, he appears to have positional versatility which they also go gaga for, he's a consummate teammate and professional and has a high football IQ. I actually wouldn't be surprised to see him with a C on his jersey this season.

I dunno, but he owes me 12 bucks so he better pay up.

I dunno, I don't think it's too shabby. Wish da Bills would make some kinda neat alternate.

Me too, man. Heck I'll take $60 mill as a one time payment! You don't even have to keep paying me, just pay me once.

Just thought I'd plop down those links here in case anyone missed the email.
Ten years ago my buddy, who's mom works in the ticket office, hooked us up with VIP passes for camp. He used to go every year but the last few years I guess not even team employees are able to get tickets for camp, at least not as easily as they used to. How the turn tables....

I feel like there's quite the overreaction from some about the McDermott article being a hit piece. Sounds to me like the dude just said something pretty dumb during a meeting and regretted it and it was later reported about by a sportswriter.
Although, McD is the same fella that cornered Matthew Fairburn and got an little spicy with him over some things he wrote. I think they felt like he was sharing a bit too much from practices or something.
I actually kinda know Tyler thru some different people and he's a solid dude just trying to create some solid pieces in a world saturated with clickbait and lazy reporting. I think people may also forget that Tyler was on the Bills beat for a while so they know him and someone like Beane doesn't seem to have much of an issue speaking with just about anyone.
All that said, lemme know when we got the workaround for the article lol.

Hang on a second, I'm looking for a crap to give...

I told that kid he's not allowed back inside until he really thinks about what he did against KC.

Rodgers looks like the type to can his own farts and bring them along for sniffies on his ayahuasca retreats.

Pff, the guy isn't eating, sleeping and breathing football every waking moment of his life! This why we never gonna win da big one!! How dare this 6'5" turd of a "football player" do anything except football in his off time. It's a disgrace! Vacations?? Golf?! Shacking up with Hawkeye?!? Absurd and not even allowed in most foosball jurisdictions! How dare he. How dare all of he!

Just a guess...
Josh, obviously. I think this is the year all the stars and the C are in gold. How neato!
I'd say Dawkins, Knox, maybe big Spence. I'll also throw one out for Shakir, dudes character and leadership were consistently brought up in his scouting reports and now he's suddenly the longest tenured Bill in the receiver room. I think. Right? Mush brains.
Defensively, I can see the C on Bernard, like Shakir, his character and leadership were highly rated, he's also super smart from what I understand. Taron Johnson should get a C, he's consistently been one of their best defenders for some time now. I wouldn't be surprised if Von gets the C again. I wonder if maybe Groot would be one they'd consider for a captain spot.
Special teams probably Mack Hollins. Maybe Baylon Spector? They seem to like him and I'd imagine if he doesn't totally crap the bed in camp he'll slot into the spot left by Matakevitch. Maybe Reid Ferguson too? He might be the longest tenured Bill overall at this point.
Future C, definitely Cole Bishop. Maybe Kincaid too.

So in short, you object to people repeating themselves, being redundant, and saying the same things over and over again then?
"Hmm, yes. Quite shallow and pedantic." 😀

Intern Timmy vs. Paulie Porkchops in the battle of the sideline tablet wranglers. Paulie is the incumbent but this Timmy kid really has a chance to take the jorb.

Use the ignore function, it makes life on TBD MUCH better!
To answer the question, there is a lot of trolls here and folks who love to argue with them.
Still beats the old BBMB, though.
I tried the ignore function once but there were times I'd be completely lost in the thread because I'd see responses to comments that I wasn't seeing. Just got confusing so after a while I was like meh I guess I'll navigate thru the junk.

Hey it's ol' Joey Buttholes.

I've always wanted to go down on the field.
I think it'd be fun to tour the new stadium once it's open.
I'd also like to be Golf Cart Larry at training camp. There's always a staffer just bummin' around on a golf cart at camp. I have deemed him to be Larry. I'm coming for your jorb, Larry!

This is why signing this dude was low risk. If he doesn't meet their expectations, there's the door and they didn't spend that much money. If he does meet expectations, then, awesome, on the roster you go and they still didn't spend that much money.

Native WNYer along with family who were all Bills fans. When I was a kid, the fam would all pile into the grandparents house on Sundays to watch the game. My cousin's and I picked our favorite teams based on colors. One year I liked the Bengals but then they got beat by the 49ers in the Super Bowl and I got sad. The next year I thought silver and black was cool so I went with the Raiders. Happened to be the same year they got obliterated by Buffalo in the AFC Championship. I think by the second quarter I'd already ditched my Raiders gear and said, "Okay, I'm a Bills fan now." I was 7, I think? Sooo, that's 35 years of Bills fandom for this old crap sack.

Honestly I’m so glad Beane values quality people .
Same. It can make who's on their draft radar a little easier. Just look for the smart, high character leader types with some versatility.

is there a serious answer here or are you just clowning around?I'm just being a goof, my bad.
But for real, I dunno if it's because I'm old now or what but I seem to think golf could be something fun to do. Buncha my friends and some of my cousins golf and I gotta get outta the house more. If I get into and get some clubs maybe you guys can teach me a few things. Or, I dunno if you only golf with more experienced golfers and don't wanna waste time trying to help a n00b.

Golf requires goofy pants and a fat @$$. You should talk to my neighbor the accountant, huge @$$.
In all seriousness I'm an old fart now and somehow I keep thinking, "huh, golf might be something fun to do." I used to work at this driving range/go kart track/batting cages in Irving and we'd "advertise that we're open" by riding the carts, using the cages and shmackin' golf balls on the range. I used to drive the golf ball picker upper cart. People get really excited when you drive by in that. "I'm gonna hit the cart!"
Uh, anyway, I'll be there. I'll borrow my son's little plastic clubs, that'll get it done. Four! See that? 600 yards. Same amount Josh Allen's gonna throw for in week one.

"He's just an emotional guy." That stuff only goes so far. You can't always be swinging violently from one end of the mood spectrum to the other and not expect some of the people close to you are gonna think you're being a bit much.
