  1. Transition year just means they are moving on from older players and trying to get younger and cheaper.    The expectation with Josh Allen at QB is to compete for a championship.  Fans are making way too big of a deal of Beane saying the word "transition."     Transition doesnt mean rebuild.

    Or cover their faces/bodies?  But not being able to kill what some consider life is the real hate...

     

    But I'm sure they'd take it over what they to do LGBTQ+.  Talk about lack of awareness.

     

    This is why you don't take advice from 20-year-olds.   Decisions based on emotional reactions, rather than facts.     Regardless of how well this young lady is educated, or how well she speaks, the fact she is supporting a radical terrorists group that hates women, especially women of her color, is all you need to know.  Then again she probably doesn't identify as white or a woman. 

     

    The guy behind her would last about ten seconds around Hamas.

    There’s obvious differences though. Many people don’t consider something to be a baby yet and it’s also dependent on the mother going through pregnancy. The dog was already here and could’ve been rehomed or taken to a shelter or rehabilitated. 
     

    I personally am on the fence on abortion. I am Pro-Life from the perspective of having a society that offers all the help possible so that a woman doesn’t feel like she has to make a choice like that for financial or any fixable reason, but am Pro-Choice from the perspective that I can’t get to wanting to force someone to do something with their body. I understand that most of us get there at some point anyway because most people have limits on where they draw the line after a certain amount of time…but all this is to say there’s a lot more nuance on that subject. 

     

    The people who don't consider something to be a baby should A. Have to see an ultrasound of the thing they dont consider to be a baby and B. Watch the "surgery" being performed.   If they still have the same opinion afterwards, fine.    Otherwise their "consideration" is complete and utter ignorance and not based in reality.

    It's not projection: it's what your hero Barry said you Dems wanted to do to America.  Are you calling him a liar?

     

     

    They claim Repubs hate women and LGBTQ+ but they support Muslims who kill them for the smallest of offenses/just existing.

     

    How would these same women like to have to ask permission to go out in public or have a chaperone appointed to them by their husbands?

  5. During his end of draft press conference Beane mentioned they worked out a WR today they will end up signing.  Regardless of them drafting a wideout to play the boundary I've fully expected the Bills to bring in another boundary WR post draft.  So who is it?  Given the Brady connections I've expected OBJ or Michael Thomas.   Any other thoughts on who it may be?

    This quote from Beane defines the entire draft strategy:

     

    He is giving it to us straight. The Bills are in a rebuild year. So he went for all team captains. Guys that interviewed well. Guys that he believes set a new foundation of leadership in the building. He hunted for short term needs that fit the singular character profile he and McDermott feel comfortable with, at the expense of talent at premium positions. And he is telling the fanbase to temper our expectations without coming right out and saying it.

     

    I'm not gonna grade a draft until we see how all the players turn out, but the overall philosophy shown this weekend is deflating and uninspiring.

    There is a massive difference between transition and rebuild.   The Bills are transitioning to a younger roster.  They aren't tearing it down and rebuilding it from the ground up.

    Sorry basketball is not an option it's like soccer except you can't use your feet with lots of scoring just as soccer is like basketball except you can't use your hands with barely any scoring. "Place Snoring meme here"

    Its fine if its not your bag but its nothing like soccer.   Soccer is a group of men passing the ball back and forth and not scoring.   Basketball is a bunch of men passing the ball back and forth and scoring every couple of seconds.   Soccer and baseball, that I get.  

  8. When I was in my 20s and 30s I loved the Draft.  Couldn't get enough content or coverage.   Would get upset about picks, talk about reaches and value picks.

     

    In my 40s I take it for what it is.   Teams picking players that they think will fit their programs based on educated guesses.   I don't down people on this board for having opinions, because some of you really understand the game.    Bottom line is somewhere between 60-70% of the guy's taken won't be anything beyond depth.

     

    The Draft stopped being fun when the Bills got good.   I am more than happy for that.   It also gives me more reason to trust the guy's involved in their front office.   If you want something fun to do instead of the Draft, the NBA playoffs are a great alternative.

    Just watched it

     

    Calls out diggs multiple times for effort for all the 'he just wants to win' crowd

    Anyone watching Diggs last year not having this take, A.  Doesn't know football or B. Had blind love for Diggs.

    Yes.  Yes, he does.   He really thinks that.

     

    Tim Graham recently said that he asked Gabe Davis whether they worked out with Josh last off-season and Gabe Davis said "yes, the cameras just aren't there any more".  *rummage* *rummage* here:
     

     

    There's also the stuff on The Quarterback Room podcast with Kyle Allen and Jordan Palmer where they were talking about being impressed with Shakir last off season; they also said Kincaid "is out here now"

     

    Kincaid said something during last season about throwing with Josh in the off-season.  

    So yeah, there's hints and pieces that they're working together off-season, at least some of them (Graham said in another tweet "I didn't take attendance")

     

    In the end people are gonna believe what they want to believe.

     

    Now, what Mahomes does is different:

    Whereas the Bills are going to have all the players show up in Orchard Park on Monday for Phase I OTAs, the KC Chiefs will have a "virtual Phase I OTA".  During that virtual phase I OTA, the receivers will be in Texas with Mahomes, staying in various hotels, throwing and catching on different fields (grass, turf etc).  This is during a phase of OTAs where teams who have in-person OTA are limited to workouts and can't throw and catch for 2 weeks.

     

    I think it's a way of circumventing the NFLPA's rules for permitted team activities during different phases of OTA, but the NFL hasn't said anything so apparently it flies.

     

    Agreed.  I read the same report.   I am going to continue to enjoy the Bills having the best QB they have ever had.   Sucks it coincides with maybe the 2nd best QB in league history being in the same conference.

    I’m not sure. I think it’s on the board.

     

    I mean, Shakir ain’t posting videos. Diggs wasn’t posting videos. Kincaid ain’t posting videos. Knox ain’t posting videos. Trent Sherfield and Harty weren’t posting videos working out with Josh. 
     

    Do I really think that they are all “afraid” to post workout videos like folks claim Josh is? Not really.

     

    Do I think Josh is flying them all down to Florida to work out and telling them they have to keep it off social media or he’ll be mad? Not really.

     

    Do I think them just not working out is more likely than those two scenarios? Yep.

    Davis said last offseason Josh got them altogether but there were no cameras.   He works out with them its just not on instagram.  

     

    Guy is the 2nd best QB in the NFL give him a break.
