Wait. Do you actually have dogs, or is this some Only Fans Gen Z euphemism? If so, understand I'm not judging. If there is an Aussie trick or two to be picked up here from down under, I'm all for it.
Yes I have two dogs. And I'm in my fifties so not many tricks left in my playbook.

She is a MILF though. I think we can all agree on that right?
I am a dog lover.....one of my dogs got hit by a car when he was 5 months old, back leg was shattered....it was either pay $2000 to get a plate screwed into the leg or, get it put down. We chose option A, and he ended up being the best friend you could ever ask for until he died at the age of 14. So I am not entirely comfortable with what she did.
That said, I love Kristi Noem for her ideological viewpoints and her decisiveness. And she is pretty easy on the eye too, so frankly - she can jump on me anytime! As long as she feeds my dogs afterwards!!

I really want this guy to be the starting centre.
That would allow McGovern to stay at G resulting in a straight swap of VPG for Morse and - minimal disruption / increased continuity to the OL.
It would also allow us to use Edwards in jumbo packages as well as having a very capable swing IOL.
Be keeping a close eye on VPG.

I would love a UB guy to at least make the PS. Long shot though.

One pundit said that he was the best shotgun snapper he had ever seen - for what that is worth.

Just now, stinky finger said:
Could have gotten him a bit later.
Not so sure....one of the ESPN pundits (Matt Miller?) had him at 166 on his board. Said he was one of his favourite CB's in the entire class
But the most glowing praise came from Louis Riddick:
"If you are Buffalo and you're Sean McD and you're picking in the 6th round and you get Hardy - you've hit the jackpot!!"
"Against Ohio state - and you know how good their WR's are - they couldn't get rid of him. Great measurables, a real alfa, super competetive, super instinctive, plays bigger than his size, and - super fast..."

At least 18 games is better numerically.
16 games was perfect.
In more ways than one.
It would eliminate the stupidity of team finishing second in Div A playing second in Div B and so on. Much easier to do the following:
- 6 division games
- 4 games v one AFC division (rotate every 3 years)
- 8 games v two NFC divisions (rotate every 2 years)
Adds up 18. Simples.
Conference record for tie breakers is simplified as well (7-3, 6-4, 5-5....)

Those lists above show that there is still lots of NFL ready talent and, with a bit of luck, we should end up with at least two more starters.
-
My only issue was that I thought he should have extracted a bit more from the chefs - like an extra 5th rounder. Otherwise, well played Beane!

From Dane Brugler:
STRENGTHS: Filled-out, proportionate frame with length … flashes quickness to create penetration … pumps his legs like pistons and uses body bend to drive blockers
backwards and collapse the pocket … uses large, violent hands and upper-body strength to work half-a-man … stays square when working down the line with the
balance to make plays in smaller spaces … never throws up the white flag early and teammates feed off his relentless energy … he was a three-time team captain and
served as a member of the NCAA’s Football Oversight Committee (2021-22) … well-known for his community activism and was awarded the 2023 Jack Tatum Award
as the ACC’s top student-athlete … played a lot of football (52 games played) and started every game the last three seasons.
WEAKNESSES: Aggressive into blocks but frequently late to disengage and make a stop in the hole … leaves too much tackle production on th e field because his
urgency will backfire and leave him out of position to make stops … can be moved by drive blockers and needs t o do a better job resetting his base to anchor down in
the run game … late off the snap too often … his counters are based more on hustle than true pass rush sequencing … his senio r year production fell well below
expectations … will turn 24 years old during his NFL rookie season.
SUMMARY: A three-year starter at Duke, Carter was a three-technique defensive tackle in former head coach Mike Elko’s 4-2-5 base scheme (also saw snaps on the
edge). He became the first three-time team captain in Blue Devils history, although his senior season production fell short of what he put on film as a sophomore and
junior. Carter needs to keep adding moves to his rush attack, but he generates power from his get-off and transfers it to his hands to create initial movement in his
pass rush. He displays similar play strength, effort and ball-tracking versus the run, although he will need to be more efficient as a block shedder to be a relevant run
defender at the line of scrimmage in the NFL. Overall, Carter doesn’t have a true difference-making trait on the field, but he is smart, strong and very active. He
might never be a full-time starter, but he will give a team value as a rotational three-technique (even fronts) or five-technique (odd fronts).
GRADE: 4th-5th Round -
From Dane Brugler:
STRENGTHS: Rangy athlete who covers a ton of ground … flashes a burst when working top down and has the agility to work around road bloc ks … shades his
coverage and gets a head start based on pre-snap checklist (identifying personnel, formations, motions, etc.) … uses his widescreen vision to hunt crossers and smack
ball carriers over the middle of the field … pattern matched well as a nickel linebacker in Utah’s “Cowboy” package … squares as a tackler and won’t shrink from
contact … physical near the line of scrimmage to handle box duties or set a hard edge … impact ful blitzer who can create havoc from different angles (39 career
pressures) … able to diagnose pullers and work overtop versus counter … NFL coaches will appreciate his competitive toughness and passion for the game … lined up
next to the snapper on punt coverages in 2023 (and he has the skill set for an expanded special -teams role at the next level).WEAKNESSES: Has some stiffness in his change of direction that pops up in man coverage … overaggressive tendencies make him a target for misdirection, pumps or
play action … does a nice job tracking routes but needs to better balance his eyes between receivers and the quarterback for more opportunities to make plays on the
football … average striker … flies to the alley, but his full-speed angles create opportunities for ball carriers to put a move on him … short-armed athlete and finds
himself stuck on blocks when caught up in the wash … has quite a few personal foul flags on his college resume and needs to stay measured in his attack … modest
on-ball production and never had more than five passes defended in a season.SUMMARY: A three-year starter at Utah, Bishop was a multidimensional safety in defensive coordinator Morgan Scalley’s hybrid 4 -2-5 scheme. Some safeties play
fast, and others play controlled — Bishop does both, because of the way he always rallies to the football, regardless of his origin point (would rotate single high to the
box to a rolled-up cornerback to a nickel ‘backer, and several other positions in between). Having grown up a New England Patriots fan, Bishop models his game after
Rodney Harrison, and it shows in his competitive demeanor and the way he wastes zero time getting to the football. Although h e has some limitations in man
coverage, he can cover tight ends and shows terrific vision in zone to diagnose route combinations and drive on the football. Overall, Bishop needs to put more
impact plays on tape by setting traps for the quarterback in coverage, but he plays with top-down explosiveness and the football IQ to make plays at all three
levels of the field. He has NFL starter-caliber talent and is ideally suited for a robber role.GRADE: 2nd-3rd Round (No. 70 overall)

From Dane Brugler...
STRENGTHS: Physically impressive athlete … outstanding body control, hip flexibility and leaping skills to sky the ball and make plays above the rim … didn’t record
first drop of 2023 until the ACC title game (had an outstanding gauntlet drill at the NFL combine) … routinely makes 50/50 grabs, and his highlight reel includes
several one-handed catches … maintains his focus to track/finish while wearing defenders like a backpack … consistently draws pass interference calls, especially in
the red zone … *****-and-go receiver with the limber frame that allows for half of his body to make the catch while the other half gets a head start working upfield
… quick at the line and at the top of his route … improved nuance as a route runner, introducing head bobs or jab steps to get corners leaning at the break point …
knows how to use his body to shield defenders on slants … able to physically dominate as a blocker and will take cornerbacks completely out of plays … wasn’t
expected to return punts at Florida State, but he filled the need and was productive (joined Peter Warrick as the only FSU players with 100-plus receiving yards and
100-plus punt return yards in the same game) … averaged 12.0 yards per punt return in 2023 (25/300/0) … “loves to work,” accordin g to head coach Mike Norvell
(NFL scout: “His drive since he was a kid was to max out his ability and cash in for his family. … That singular focus and talent? Yeah, I’ll bet on that.”) … teammates
speak highly of the way he carries himself (Trey Benson: “He has so much energy. … I’ve never seen him down.”) … led team in receiving at two different schools.
WEAKNESSES: Not a burner, and his speed is mediocre by NFL standards … can be more efficient beating the jam and stacking corners … routes require additional
polish and deception … doesn’t consistently separate on film, leading to a high-trafficked catch points (his 30 contested targets ranked second most in the FBS in
2023) … guilty of extending both hands and pushing off defenders downfield (flagged twice for offensive pass interference in 2023) … played through a partial muscle
tear in his hip/groin area throughout the 2022 season at Michigan State (an injury contributed to his decision to give up basketball); missed one game as a junior and
parts of several others because of nagging injuries (November 2023).
SUMMARY: A one-year starter at Florida State, Coleman lined up inside and outside (motion-heavy) in head coach Mike Norvell’s up-tempo scheme. After putting
himself on the NFL radar as a two-sport athlete at Michigan State, he transferred to Tallahassee in 2023 and led the Seminoles in receiving — and the nation in
acrobatic “He did what?!” catches. Thanks to his basketball background, Coleman “big brothers” cornerbacks up and down the fi eld using size, strength and
athleticism. But what really separates him as a pass catcher is his dominance with the ball in the air. Not only can he overpower defenders at the catch point, but he
also makes leaping acrobatic stabs appear routine with his natural body control and extraordinary catch radius. Overall, Coleman must develop more nuance to his
route running, but his big-man twitch, physicality and ball-winning adjustment skills allow him to be a difference maker. With continued refinement, he has the
talent to be an NFL starter (similar in ways to Courtland Sutton).-

By the way the trade value matches up exactly perfect by the Rich Hill chart:
https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart-Rich-Hill.asp?RequestTeam=Buf
227 points for both sides.
Isn't there meant to be roughly a ten percent 'tariff' to the team facilitating the trade?
Beane got fleeced here, pure and simple.

What was the pick deal with KC?

What is your rationale for rating Brian Thomas considerably lower than any other mock that I have seen?

There is no better podcast going around for mine than these three guys and they have a very interesting discussion on the Bills draft.
Bills talk starts around 43.03

I figured this was a good place for this James Jones rant....idiots gonna idiot:
Kristi Noem is human trash
in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Posted
Just saw her interview with Sean Hannity....she makes it clear that the biased fake news lefty media have omitted key facts from the story:
- the dog was 14 months old, so almost an adult, definitely not a puppy
- the dog was given to her by another family because they found it to be too aggressive, she and her family gave the dog a second chance but it became even more aggressive, attacking both people and other farm animals, leaving her with no choice but to put the dog down.
She seemed pretty genuine to me.
