BS, all those young millionaires have advisors. They're going to go to the place where they can win and have more of a career after they're done playing. A ring means a lot more to them than a couple summers of sunshine and fun.
And those "advisors" get a decent percentage of the contract's monies. It's always the money.

The PI is far too powerful of a penalty; it just does not fit in and ruins games. The whole wtf is a catch is really dumb. Amazing talent is being deemed a non catch for seemingly random reasons.
The NFL is ruining its product. It can fix these two issues without worrying about QB injuries and brain damage law suits too.

You sound like a real man! Thanks for the poser testosterone shower though.

Apologize to martin? Jesus. Martin needs to learn he is a grown man. Pussification of America causes people to be offended and make for weak ass apologies

Trust me when I tell you "creepy" depends on how hot a woman finds you. A guy she finds "hot" can say the same thing as a guy she finds completely unattractive and she will love it from the "hot" guy and say its "creepy" from the second guy.
And if yer rich you can just grab em by their vulvas? ;o)
Not coming back anytime soon. The politics in this country are heading in the exact opposite direction. Tampa had legal problems with their squad too. Not sure how that ended but those girls were attention grabbing in their costumes.
Wrong political culture nationally and wrong weather locally. If you like then enjoy them on TV when watching other teams at home and leave the lawsuits away from OBD.

But Miami means teal and orange! Ha.
Not buying the bills as a prime destination thing. Small city and cold late season. I also think many Bills fans are the usual over optimistic as to next year. We ended the streak by a nose hair and are not two or three key pieces from an AFC championship game appearance right yet. On offense alone we need OL, QB, WRs (maybe several) and a backup RB. We all know how we felt in week 16 when shady was punching the turf in pain - it was all over without him. . .a offense with a depth of one guy.
On a positive note, the locker room and persona of the team is finally being cleaned up and the fumigation of the Ryan twits seems complete. We seem to all agree that we have faith in the thinking and skills of leadership now in place. We may not make the playoffs this year but with luck in how the draft picks pan out in the NFL we might make something decent in a few years. Most exciting time for this team in several years at least- but prime destination and the idea of being a few pieces away is a bit fanboy. :o)

You do have a point there hapless. Either way, it certainly needs to be taken seriously.
I see an opportunity for Richie to step up here. Reach out to this guy and privately apologize and make amends - regardless of guilt. The perceived antagonists could likely help the guy better than anyone.

Bill - BLM is not about hating all cops. You do not seem to understand the issue - which somehow seems to be the normal even though BLM is so very simple.and well defined and communicated.
Anyhow, the NFL is a business as you point out and its business fails quickly without black and brown skinned associates. The last thing they need is a player strike.
The same players are forced to don pink for the politics of breast cancer lobbyist groups so then saying they cannot use the field for educating about discrimination is tone deaf; amd maybe legally risky. I have wondered why always breast cancer. Prostrat cancer could use some sunshine in its backyard too. Ha.

He's not a danger to anyone save himself. If he was both willing and able to shoot others he would not have put up that advert about it. It seems to me he was on the brink of suicide and did this as a bizarre call for help; bizarre not meant as an insult so much as saying it shows he clearly has issues - perhaps substance abuse in addition to whatever else.
As for using prescriptions such as antidepressants for not allowing gun sales that's a poor plan that will cause people to refuse seeking help from their GP, etc. Ie - people who maybe should be on meds not being on said meds AND buying ARs designed for killing humans.

Same or similar players had us 10th in points and 16th in yards in 2016. This year we were 22nd in points in 29th in yards. So yes - I blame Dennison. He made the team worse and I'm glad he was fired.
Red zone TD scoring - 64.81% in 2016 to 51.11% in 2017
Rushing YPA - 5.3 in 2016 to 4.1 in 2017
We were even worse at passing...5.4 NYA in 2017 16 TDs and 10 picks
5.8 NYA in 2016 17 TDs and 7 picksSame RB, TE, QB, most of the O-line. And significantly worse results.
What did we get better at under Dennison?
Not really wanting to defend Dennison per se but how can you say same or similar players? We traded woods and Watkins weeks before game one and used a kid who has never played in the NFL as our #1 WR. We gutted the WR position and the stats show what you would expect to see.

We got the 2nd 1st round pick because we traded down for a team wanting their QB.
I have no problem (more so, I think Beane and McDermott also) would use the 2-1st's to move up to get "their guy".
Anything more starts to get problematic.
I'm also fine with using both first round picks to move up if it gets what they want but some of the scenarios above are horror show. Like a serious gambling problem for a father horror show.

You guys who would give everything for two years away for the hope that the QB you get out of the top three will be the magic pill that makes the Bills into Atlas are nuts. Screw magical beans - build something. Take a QB at 21 and then another next year and another in 2020 - all the while building the obvious things that he needs such as o line, WRs, backup RB and defense.
Richie incognito is not an O line (ask n8) - and he's not going to play forever.

Trading up makes sense mostly to try to satisfy whining fans, but makes little football sense.
. . . . .
If anything the Bills should trade down.
I agree. Buffalo has a fascination for a magical bullet - a one shot that hits perfectly. See the sabers. Remember the odd bass pro in the old aud will somehow resurrect the city? Thr city is now on the right path by doing multiple, obvious things to improve and not fantasizing about nonsense.
I hope the process is not playing roulette and putting all in on one guy. If that guy fails it will set us back at least two more years due to all the picks we gave away. Luck has not been strong here and yet so many fancy that route.
I also think that getting that WC appearance was for the whiny fans (ticket sales). We could be looking at picks 5 and 22 now. Or 10 and 22. I do seem to be alone in that logic here though; here meaning all of buffalo, heh.
6 minutes ago, KelsaysLunchbox said:But it really was a Playoff team. Like, literally they were in the playoffs. Doesn't matter that Cincy "helped" them. If that game is played at 1pm...same results happen and there isn't talk of "help".
And since when is losing a road playoff game by 7 being dominated? Had the opportunity to tie it on last possession...that's not being "dominated".
Just keeping it realer
By definition you are correct - they were in the playoffs. They stood as close to zero a chance of a Superbowl appearance as about any WC ever has though. They were the red meat for the WC weekend to feast on was all.

Forget about the holes. This was a playoff team, sure it has holes but you would not be bringing a rookie QB into a dumpster fire. And forget about Manning's 3-13 rookie year.... the NFL is far gentler to rookie QBs now than it was in 1998.
It was not really a playoff team. They ticked a box with a little help from Cincinnati and, expectedly, got dominated in the WC game. Just keeping it real.

I just hope that 'The Process' is not "all in on red 12."

Or the Packers.
It works both ways.
True. It's a gamble. Just that it's a very big gamble on one guy for us. It's been a very long time as we all know. Let's not pull a homer Simpson bet and gamble everything on the singular chance to win huge else ruin Christmas (where they get the race dog pet from).
Let's spread those picks and get a QB at 21 and, hopefully, several other starters as well. 2018 is not our year either way. Grab another QB next year as well. Or get cousins. Just let's not go all in on the roulette wheel.
This is buffalo - our luck has not always favored us after all. I just mean that, if we sell the farm for a top 3 QB this year and it's a bust then we probably set ourselves back a couple of years relative to had we been more careful here.
I mean, hopefully 'The Process' isn't "put it all on red 13."

Can we win 10+ games consistently with the QBs on the roster today?
Can the sabres make .500 with their one great player? The bills will not be great, or even perennially very good, with a stud QB and so many other holes left exposed. Colts for example.

Because why try what we never do? That’s worked out well, eh?
Because we can instead learn through other's mistakes. Why go all in on a top 3 QB and stick him with our O line and WRs?
I could buy a $400 driver but I would still suck at golf as my irons, chip shots and putting is all either mediocre else crap.

Cities have personalities and one trait of Buffalo is magical bullet thinking. If only bass pro would move into downtown then buffalo would be reborn. Heh. I never understood that one whatsoever. Wtf was that? Downtown is doing a lot better now that we left those ideas of some single, monolithic gamble righting the ship and instead our planners diversified and did the needful.
The sabres are another example. The magic bullet is not bad but a bullet alone was not going to do it.
In short, I do not want to see the Bills give away the draft for a hope that the QB they draft in the top 10 picks is the magic bullet. How many QBs drafted in the top 10 over that past 25 years have gone on to do not much of anything? What are the odds of that magic bullet working out better than the sum of all those picks we left on the table? It's a bad gamble born by wishful thinking.
-
Several posts here about how many great QBs have not been top 10 picks. That's true but two things - those percentages are scewed by the likes of Brady being counted many times due to his SB appearances or whatnot.
Also, the inverse should be considered - how many top 10 QBs in the last 20 years have gone on to play in a championship game OR win x number of playoff games or whatever makes good filters. Read as - how many have NOT gone on to do much of anything. Most I would assume.
Trading both first and a second to move up exposes the bills to far greater risk than keeping what we have or making smaller trades to move up slightly. Going all in on a top 3 QB and seeing it fail is, to me, a ton worse than getting a QB with one of our first round (say Rudolph) and a bunchnof other studs too. If Rudolph (whomever) is a bust we are just developing and waiting another year for another chance at FA or draft.
