    ...surprised about Duke....read a McBeane quote(paraphrased), "the signing of Duke Williams made drafting a WR early not a top priority"...interesting....didn't think Shady would be a definite goner, but he has one year left.....any GM in the league would wait out Bills cuts versus trading a pick for one year.....guys like Gore (36) and D (33) defy odds and just "keep on tickin'".....not so sure Shady is in that category..........

    The read I get is they wanted both McKenzie and Williams and McKenzie isn’t PS eligible so they are taking chance on Williams making it past waivers. We’ll see if that works.

    I've been going back and forth with people all week, thinking he wasn't going to make it on the 53 man roster, he's too slow to play between the 20s. Put him on the PS and spend the year gaining ~25 pounds & convert him to a TE. He's got a big frame, strong hands & is a really good blocker. I think he would excel at TE once he knows the position.

    Guaranteed that if he makes the PS he will be called up within first 3 weeks due to injury or performance reasons. I can’t remember a time when we haven’t had a WR injured in first 3 weeks of the season.

    Yes it was! Loved the team. I made All Star in a Church Basketball League and the game was played at the Aud just before a Sonics/Braves game. I dropped a swish from what would later become 3pt range. Great thrill & time! Loved Ernie D from Providence too. Loved ‘em all, from Elmore Smith to Adrian Dantley

     

    Edit: preferred the blue unis over the originals.

    Wow. Talk about bringing back memories. In 1975 our HS team played at the Aud before the Braves due to our gym not being ready. I remember making a shot beyond the top of the key and feeling like I was throwing it into the ocean because there was no background. Really weird feeling. It was cool coming off the floor and Ernie D standing there waiting to go on after us.
