Here's an easy solution that my friend utilizes.
Purchase a VPN service (Nord is great, believe you can get it for $80/2 years).
Set VPN to a location in Brazil (very easy to do with Nord's interface) and head over to gamepass.com. Gamepass international includes all games live, whereas gamepass in the US only includes games on demand after they've happened. Brazil is the cheapest gamepass ($99 for the whole year) in any international country.
Once you sign up, you'll have access to everything. Then, when sunday comes you simply fire up Nord and set your location to somewhere with great servers (Select UK), sign into gamepass, and enjoy! Your gamepass international sub also includes redzone!
Overall, you'll pay $280 for 2 years of football games (assuming you renew gamepass international for the second year). Thats less than $10 per game.
That might seem like a scummy solution, but its better than streaming it for free, its HD, and its the NFL (so don't feel too bad)! it has worked great for my friend, someone who doesnt want a TV subscription but wants to watch his out of town team play.
Hope this helps someone!

The left shoulder is preventing Josh from driving through his throws. That’s my theory.
He hasn’t been the same since that injury. Whether it’s physically affecting him or not, I think it’s certainly inhibiting him mentally.
D sucks, and it’s all D line. Guys on back end aren’t playing well, but we’re getting 0 pressure. Somethings got to give.
Tough listening to all my Chief fan family and friends (I live in and am from St. Louis) talk smack after this one, but we didn’t do anything to shut them up.

If we stay at 22...
Gross-Matos
Ruggs (unlikely to be available)
Epenesa (unlikely to be available)
Simmons (unlikely to be available)
Really, the only player I'm comfortable with that is somewhat likely to be available is Gross-Matos. I don't see Shenault or Higgins as guaranteed producers for us next year. They both need development time and I don't think that's something we can sign up for with our 1st pick. Gross Matos is ready to play as a technically sound run stopping DE, with sky high pass rush upside. He's the pick for me.
If we trade up...
There are only a few guys I'd trade up for. My number one choice would be CeeDee Lamb. If he falls beyond the Jets at 11, I think you look for Beane to make a move and get him. It won't cost as much as expected, as the move is only 10 slots maximum. My guess is swap 1sts and throw in our 3rd which I'd be happy to do. The other player I'd trade up for is Jeudy, but he'll be the first WR off the board and I honestly value Lamb higher.
If we trade down...
Would love to trade down into late first and pick up another 3rd, especially if Gross-Matos is off the board. If indeed we do trade down, Shenault/Higgins become far more likely (assuming they're available). Their upside would be hard to ignore in the late 20's, and the extra pick we acquire can be used to move up the board in the second (or package both 3's for an additional second) to fill other gaps.
If my perfect world...
1(22) - Gross-Matos
2(54) - J. Jefferson or Tyler Johnson (my top 5 are Lamb, Jeudy, Ruggs, Jefferson, Viska, Higgins, Tyler Johnson)
3(86) - Cameron Dantzler (the answer opposite of Tre)
4(118) - Najee Harris (backfield of Motor/Harris for the next 3 years minimum would be excellent)
Overall, I trust whatever decision Beane/McD make. They've earned it IMO. Go Bills!
-
The pick is Gross-Matos if he's there at 22. He's got the run game ability of Shaq with far more pass rush ability. He fits this D concept like a glove with his size and power.

My most recent TDN Mock turned out to be the best one I've done yet, IMO. Got exactly who I wanted with each pick. Let me know what you think!

I can't believe there are people who would be against signing AJ Green. To me, he seems like the perfect FA addition for this team. You're likely looking at a 2 year deal with decent guaranteed $ and many incentives. No team is going to break the bank for this guy, but he will necessitate a decent amount of cap space of which the Bills have plenty. If the Bills can add AJ and a WR in the 1st or 2nd, I can't imagine a better situation for a rookie WR to come into than a room that includes AJ, Brown, and Beasley. Expectations would be tempered, pressure would be lower, and the opportunity to learn and grow with great teammates who have done this at a high level would be extremely valuable.
I predict the Bills sign AJ to a 2 year deal worth about 22-24 Million. Cap hit of about 12. We'll draft a similar WR early (Jefferson, Tyler Johnson, Shenault, Higgins) and allow our young weapon to learn from one of the best to ever do it for a couple of years. Go Bills!

The past 3 weeks have had all of us questioning this team, no doubt. I’m going to say we take care of bitness against the Phins, Broncos, Jets and Steelers to finish 10-6 and make the playoffs for the first time in Josh Allen’s career.
I won’t try and predict playoff success, but let’s assume we’re drafting somewhere in the 20-28 range. Most would agree the Bills need help at multiple positions, and WR would be near the top of that list. My choice would be Tyler Johnson from Minnesota.
Last year, I was high on Terry McLaurin. Experienced guy with excellent separation and route running ability. These types of guys have proven over and over to be incredibly valuable. The athletic freaks are much harder to predict, and much more dangerous to pick. A guy like Johnson seems to be safer and have almost as high of a ceiling while also having a far higher floor. Check out the article below that outlines some of his abilities and highlight plays. He’s the real deal.
GO BILLS!

Good luck replacing that in a locker room.
The "Deep Water" speech he gave at the beginning of this video literally brings tears to my eyes. Raw emotion. We will struggle without his leadership, no question. However, someone will pick up the torch. They'll have to. My money is on Micah Hyde.

I think the Bills can win 10 games this year if Allen plays in all 16 games. I wouldn't put money on it, but I don't see why they couldn't reach that win total. They made massive improvements on O Line, signed 2 veteran WR (who I think will be great additions, despite what some on here believe), added skill and experience at RB, and drafted a high ceiling TE prospect. Not to mention they added a difference maker to the D Line (critically important piece of the D puzzle), solidified corner depth with veterans (one of which has already played in our system, and had a very respectable year for us in 2017), and have had their marquee additions of 2018 draft (Allen/Edmunds) in their strength/conditioning program for a full off season. Those two, I'd like to assume, have been working and studying hard this winter/spring to prepare for the upcoming season. They'll both know the playbook top to bottom. My money would be on both Josh and Tremaine taking steps forward this year, maybe even big steps forward.
If you can't be optimistic about this year's Bills team, idk if you can ever be optimistic about anything!
It's clear to me that our front office, for the first time in a long time, has a very defined set of values, goals, and expectations that they are applying to every decision they make. Success is truly a top down mechanism, and it's clear to me that our owners, GM, coaches, staff, and players are all on the same page.
The future is NOW! Go Bills!

I just ran the numbers over the last 15 years. The algorithm is hard to explain to those that dont have the brain capacity to understand such things. Thst said I will cut through the math and say on week one if they are not at home it will be a 100% chance that they will play on the road. Hope that helps @eball.
Wow. Clearly there's some seriously deep analytical research going on here. I think I'm going to have to take a day off of work tomorrow to let this all sink in.

This will be difficult to top:
9: Ed Oliver- DT, Houston
40: Chris Lindstrom- OG, Boston College
74: Andy Isabella- WR, UMass
112: David Montgomery- RB, Iowa State
131: Zach Gentry- TE, Michigan
147: Anthony Johnson- WR, Buffalo
158: Wyatt Ray- Edge, Boston College
That would be a fantastic draft.
Thanks everyone for sharing your results! For those interested in giving it a shot, here is the link (sorry for not posting it in the OP!)

Hey Guys,
Gave TheDraftNetwork's "Mock Draft Machine" a try and came out pretty pleased with the way my draft went. I only did 5 rounds, and only made selections for the Bills. Would you be happy if this is what we came away from the draft with? Any players you don't like on here? Who would you have tried to go with instead?
Thanks for the fun discussion, and give TDN's mock machine a try. Its pretty fun!

I love the idea of trading down in the first (unless Q. Williams or Oliver are there) and then using our later round picks to trade back up for specific players in the 4th and 5th. It could very well play out that way. I'd be surprised if we end up making more than 8 picks total.
Something like this is possible if there is a QB run in the top 10...
1: R1P15OT JONAH WILLIAMSALABAMA2: R2P9C DALTON RISNERKANSAS STATE3: R2P14DL JERRY TILLERYNOTRE DAME4: R3P1WR DEEBO SAMUELSOUTH CAROLINA5: R4P11TE ZACH GENTRYMICHIGAN6: R4P29RB DARRELL HENDERSONMEMPHIS7: R5P3CB JUSTIN LAYNEMICHIGAN STATE8: R5P11WR PARRIS CAMPBELLOHIO STATEIf we get Jonah Williams, Risner, and Samuel, we'll look back at the 2019 draft as one of the few that turned this franchise into a consistent winner. While I'm not sold on Williams at LT, I think his versatility will translate into a productive player at some position on OL. Risner is going to be an excellent interior player, and potentially be solid at RT. Deebo is the prototype of today's NFL receiver; fast, extremely quick, great hands, exceptional route running. Big, outside WR targets are a thing of the past. Rams don't have one, Pats don't have one. Its all about speed, elusiveness, and route running.

My guy at wideout is Samuel out of SC...thoughts?
Couldn't agree more. I think he'll be the best WR from this draft, unless DK really reaches his potential.

Please stop with the Harry love... 90% of the catches in his "highlight" video are either screen passes where he makes doodoo corners miss tackles, or downfield jump balls where instead of going up and getting the ball with his massive hands he lets it come down into his chest to make the catch. Catching the ball like that does not work in the NFL on a consistent basis. If we draft Harry, we will all be very disappointed.

Im going with 2 crushes...OL Dalton Risner and WR Deebo Samuel
edit: just wanted to add that whatever player I want never seems to be the pick, so I fully expect Buffalo to NOT draft these two guys
These 2 players are the right answer. N'Keal Harry is NOT what we need. Slow, aligator arms, body catches... We've seen that before folks. Risner is exactly what our line needs (whether he plays OT or C) and Samuel is the kind of WR that can dominate in today's NFL. If the Bills get both of these guys I'll be over the moon with joy. If we take Harry, I'll be extremely disappointed in Beane.

Why would a team interested in winning football games with some regularity cut a good/solid LT? Why would a good/solid LT re-sign for bottom feeder money to play RT for the team that traded him away when he could make much more playing LT for another team?
FTR, Glenn is a superior LT to Dawkins, who is, at best, adequate. He's the one who should be moved to RT -- or better yet, to G where he could actually be good.
Not all teams are as stupid as the Bills. They understand the importance of having a decent OL anchored by a solid LT.
Yeah, the reason is stupidity.
Most OLers miss games due to injury. It's the nature of playing "in the trenches" where big bodies are always falling on one another. Since Glenn's 2018 injury was unrelated to his previous injuries, why would he "might not be suited to be a starter in the league any longer"? I mean other than Bills' fans looking for excuses to justify the Bills trading away a good LT and leaving their potential franchise QB unprotected?
First off, I never said he'd sign for "bottom feeder" money. "Reasonable" money is far different than "bottom feeder".
Glenn is superior, but if the team sees Dawkins as the future at LT, then you move Glenn. You're free to have whatever opinion you want, but the Bills will be the ones making that decision (if they were to indeed acquire Glenn).
Nothing I said indicates the Bengals are stupid. The Bills clearly had a plan when trading Glenn to move up, and if you can't see that then I'm sorry. The Bengals suck, are changing regimes, and will likely look to rebuild. They won't be resigning Glenn in 2021 when his contract is up, and they have a potential out this year that will save them 18mil. If considering saving 18 million on a player that isn't part of your future is "stupid", then I'm glad you aren't running the Bills.
Appreciate your opinions, but you sure seem like a jerk with the way you present them.

They traded him for a reason
Yes, that reason being that he provided the necessary value needed to move from 21 to 13 in the draft and to better position themselves to make a move for a QB. I don't think it had anything to do with them not valuing Glenn, more so the opposite.

The Bills Should Inquire About Hunter Renfrow’s Availability.
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
Renfrow played 13 offensive snaps on Sunday and was not targeted once. If he’s going to continue to be a non factor for that team, maybe he could be available for a late round pick.
With Meyers getting injured, perhaps Renfrow fills that slot role for the time being. But if he is indeed available, I think we’d be smart to pick him up in a trade.
Josh was Uber successful with Beasley playing the safety valve role. Idk if last nights issues were Josh being too aggressive (probably) or not trusting the guys playing underneath but Renfrow seems like a perfect fix to the latter.
Just a thought. Go Bills!
