  1. Whoever tanks into the #1 pick, will all look like the Jets. Are college players this dumb? Hell he could stay in school another year, have a bad year, and get picked by Jets in 3rd round in 2019.
  2. Because they live in a video game world where they think goofy trades that make sense can be completed just because they make sense. Forgetting you must convince the other team to agree to said trade. In Madden there is only the "here and now" and the players talent comparison. Players perform the same all year regardless of where they play. In the real world teams have baggage and hopes and plans and capital they pd for the player they are trading, salaries, age, talent dropoff over course of yr on older players, contract situations, injuries, sentimental ties to players, personal ties to players, and new GM's/coaches/owners and diff owners all with multiple variying degrees of agenda. For ex: it is harder to deal with ego enhanced owner playing GM like J Jones compared to good GM with experience like most others. Hope that helps.
  3. He could be a Kelly Holcomb 2.0 if he continues to develop. Then Bill shave a good back up.
  4. Then could also bring in Branden Albert at LT, before he retires again, to play if Glenn is out. ?? yes?
  5. If they start Peterman with this atrocious pass blocking OL he will be killed on the field by the 4th game. That will kill his development. C Jones looked better than Peterman in the first game he played in preseason also.
  6. Yes everyone seems to not understand when TT starts dancing and then escaping the pocket then rolling out and running up to the line, most of that additional time is counted and increases his time holding ball to league high levels. Most other QB's get the ball out early as that is a league wide solution to the build up of NFL D's focused on rushing the QB. If no wr is open or pressure is fast, other QB's not named Tyrod are throwing the ball away and not spending 2 more seconds scrambling and giving appearance he has all day to throw when that adds to his time holding ball.
  7. I will go with direct quotes from Watkins on this. He said: "I love Buffalo, I want to be here for the rest of my career" https://www.news-press.com/story/sports/2017/07/29/buffalo-bills-sammy-watkins-healed-happy-motivated/521595001/ http://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/index.ssf/2017/07/what_buffalo_bills_wr_sammy_watkins_had_to_say_about_his_foot_injury_contract.html http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000822817/article/sammy-watkins-my-goal-is-to-stay-in-buffalo-forever Beans on the other hand says one thing and does the other. Just like McDerma.
  8. Does not feel to them they are bumbling around??? Beane himself said he was not shopping them and teams approached Bills. McDerma then was surprised to get info on these pending deals right after the thurs night game and did not sleep all night trying to digest it. Sounds like Fred and Barney out for a night on the town to me.
  9. Big problem for Bills is historically they can not, or will not, sign the rookies to 2nd contracts. Even good rookies. This sets up a mass exodus when the 10 or 20 draft picks(or # they end up w after trading everyone this yr) are all on same page, contract yr wise, after all these picks are used in 2018.
  10. Driving force is clearly any team who calls and expresses interest in elite young talented players who previously to this contact Bills were not shopping and planned on keeping and building a winning team around. I wonder what Beane is going to do when Jets call offering a high 2018 draft pick for McDerma to be their DC?? This team FO continues to be a cluster****. Trying to fiqure out who is in charge is like the Abbott ansd Costello "who's on third skit"
  11. Alas?? Are you French or English or something. LOL
  12. They did not trade up for him. They received that 1st round pick for Jason Peters. And it was after the Bills 1st round pick at 11 for Maybin. Now I am confused what a real trade up actually is. As Bills made a first round pick 13 in 2004 Lee Evans and then traded back into 1st round to pick 22 JP Losman. Trade up? or Trade back into round 1?? Trade up I guess so you are right.??
  13. Yes. Sounds like what Rex did with the Jim Schwartz D.
  14. Probably not unless he has a breakout 2017. If you still do not want to pay him then you tag and trade. Teams would have lined up after this 2017. Instead he was traded for beans.
  15. Yes then trade the promising CB half way through his affordable rookie deal for a container of cotton candy.
  16. I see how you would try to make the connection there about it being a trade-up, however, does not quite meet the criteria. IE: a true trade up is acquiring the pick and then making the pick. Not letting some other team set the draft pick spot value of the player by making the pick first. EX: if Bills had traded up with Colts for the pick that Colts choose Bennet with, there is no way of knowing that Bills would have picked Bennet. They may have had other players graded higher and picked one of them instead. Bills only got interested after draft when it became clear Colts could not sign him. another ex: No one refers to Eli Manning and P Rivers swap a draft trade up. It was just a trade because both players were the property of a team at that time. Just my opinion.
  17. And they had as all fooled when we thought Bills cut Robey-Coleman because he was too small. Now Robey is in LA probably taking Gaines roster spot.
  18. As it is obvious Bills are tanking and may or may not trade up for a QB next year, I can not find a single trade up that Bills did in the past that worked out. Think about that when Watkins and Darby are playing in the Pro Bowl next year before the draft.
  19. Holy crap this sounds like guys professing their loyalty to Saddam Hussein when he entered the Iraq congress with a pistol and had pols walked out one by one.
  20. I am on record I hate both trades. This season is over.
  21. This is beyond comprehension. Makes no sense in anyones world. McDerma and Beane can just go **** themselves. Great tank job setup. I hate all of you. McCoy is probably next if he does not walk out on his own. Boldin probably trying to rescind his deal. This place is a full blown dumpster fire now. Bring back Whaley and let him hire a coach. I trust him.
  22. Because Bills have unceremoniously ridded themselves of many Whaley/Rex picks/signings since McDictator took full control. WR Marcus Easley, WR Kolby Listenbee, QB C Jones, TE Gerald Christian, K Dan Carpenter, CB Nickell Robey-Coleman, LS Garrison Sanborn, S Phillip Thomas, S Aaron Williams, S Corey Graham, no match RB Mike Gillislee, OT Cyrus Kouandjio, QB Josh Woodrum, CB Jonathan Dowling, TE Blake Annen, C Patrick Lewis. Very little difference in the Whaley/Rex guys they dumped vs the new guys they signed as replacements. Virtually all would be depth players so one can only surmise they were dumped, in part but not 100% for, because they wanted Whaley/Rex guys out and their guys in. And they are not done yet.
  23. Never take a 2 yr old to an adult event. Just recently an idiot brought her infant to a r rated late show in my hometown. "Dunkirk" . No ear protection. Baby cried a lot. Drowned out mostly by the loud sounds from the movie.
