Are we going to ‘aggressively’ trade down now? 😂😂😂😂
-
Are we at the point of aggressively yet?

Aggressively? I don’t like the sound of that at all!

I took my sons to see it at the theatre, they were like 10,11 years old at the time.
My wife was like “you’re seriously dragging them to the movies so you don’t have to be a weirdo sitting alone in the theatre ? “
I said “yes”I assume you mean your ex-wife! 😉

It's 21 true first round grades. It doesn't mean half the league will reach. Every board will be different and some of those I see as high 2s will be 1s for teams where they are looking at a specific skillset and team fit. But also if you are a team drafting later in the round and the first round grades are gone and you take a high 2nd round grade that isn't a reach. That happens in every draft.
Thanks…it’s why I put reach in quotation marks. So with that being said what’s your gut feeling of how this year stacks up against other recent draft classes? It seems like a good one to me but it may because I’ve focused on QB (like everyone does every year) and WR being a position of Bills need.

I didn’t read the entire post but I’m going to assume it’s well done as always. Not sure if you intended it this way or not but when I counted across the entire list I find you only gave 20 guys a 1st Round grade. That means almost half the league is going to ‘reach’ tonight.

I too am ready….I already don’t like what we’ve done in this year’s draft and we haven’t even done it yet!

They look like pool balls to me. NY Football Giants in the corner pocket!

Dude's 64, isn't that a concern for anyone? Is there an older coach in the NHL?
I don't follow hockey, but that's pretty old it seems.Also, 8 seasons with the Stars and Devils, only three playoff appearances, losing in the first round once, in the second round the other two times.
More asking than commenting, I know little about hockey, but that alone seems to contradict many of the supportive statements herein.
Hey Whipper Snappee! Since when did 64 become old? 😂

It’s just a hunch but I think McCarthy is this year’s guy who’ll be sitting (head in hands) in the green room all night long on Thursday.

Teams rehiring old coaches happens in the NHL. Claude Julien and Paul Maurice are two examples. Lindy might have the record for longest gap: 11 years.
That’s definitely true, but so is my observation. 😉

All I can say is that I’m REALLY glad we don’t have to worry about drafting a quarterback for a while. Those days were brutal!

Hiring Lindy might have had a nostalgia component but he's no "stunt." He had success in New Jersey and Dallas. He was on the staff that won Canada the gold medal at Sochi. He's ranks 5th in all time coaching wins. He's going to drastically change the locker room culture.
Didn’t the Sabres hire Scotty Bowman a few decades ago? Feels an awful lot like that to me.

This is not like looking for a franchise quarterback. Trade back and stockpile picks. You never know which of these WRs is going to amount to much of anything. Go for quantity!

The voting spread on this poll shows just how difficult it is to predict anything this year. For me, I keep thinking that Beane is still steaming from not having a 3rd Round pick. I can see him working the phones to get it back. And that means trading down, not up.

I placed my bid this afternoon. Fingers crossed.
I hope you had it notarized. If you don’t have a Notary stamp on it…..it’ll be rejected. Just saying.

It worked with Lou Saban….sort of.

I'd rather not be dragged into a moral discussion about hoarding obscene wealth.
I won't bother coming up with a number. It's like Potter Stewart said, "I know it when I see it."
Sounds good. You remain at your post! We need you on that wall. 😉

i usually throw out a "go bills" if i'm away and i see someone sporting gear, and i've had people start conversations as well. this last vacation i just couldn't do it. we took the kids on a disney cruise, and there were a ton of bills fans on it, (i assume we all have the same school breaks). i just wasn't in the mood this time to get into the small talk about it. i don't know if it's age, or maybe i just needed the peace, but for the first time in a long time, i kept my bills fandom to myself.
That Diggs trade really has you that bummed? 😉

Dying to find out where the sweet spot is where you contend you cross over the ‘not good person’ line. I wanna make sure I turn back before that point.

Not to mention why should anyone tell other people what to support or not support?
I wouldn’t go that far. Hearing from other people is rarely a bad thing. But that’s way different from be ordered to actually DO something.

I said it all along. Beane REALLY wanted a 3rd Round pick and he got one. Excellent move!
