  1. After the Atlanta game, a TBD poster, I forget who, shared a heart-warming (literally) story of the kindness shown to his young son at the game that weekend.  Of course, I later heard, on Sal Capaccio's show, the same poster calling in to Sal to share the story with an even larger audience.

    Which brings me to my question.  Share your stories!  I want more like this.

    My favourite:  David, Security at gate 113-114 a few years ago.  Not sure if he's still there as I moved to the home side 4 years ago.  He was a tall guy who reminded me of Snoop:  not just in the way he looked, but in how cool he was.  He always kept order, usually with a smile and a joke, even with the most unruly fans.  He treated everybody with respect.  And best of all, he was a passionate fan of the team.  You were always guaranteed one last enthusiastic high five on your way out of the stadium.

    This, and let’s not forget hindsight is 20/20.  Allen was an unknown and a ‘project’ QB (as labeled by the ‘experts’) coming out of college. I freaking love that we struck gold with Allen… but even many, many Bills fans thought we got the Wrong Josh when Goodell made that announcement…

     

    Imagine the disaster if we had actually drafted Josh Rosen?  And I still wonder which QB we would’ve drafted if we had the #1 pick.

    Sometimes I wonder if I'm in an alternate universe.  Because in my universe, the Bills always do this.

    Elway has no eye for QB play, which is surprising. The list of QBs he's drafted is terrible.

     

    Brock Osweiler

    Zac Dysert

    Trevor Seimian

    Paxton Lynch

    Chad Kelly

    Drew Lock

     

    I mean, that's a list worthy of the drought-era Bills.

    When it comes easy for some athletes, they have trouble as coaches (in Elway's case, GM)  because they feel like it should come easy to anyone.

    Linderbaum got hurt late today in loss to KY.  That  - if he can't teats at combine and his size may cause him to slide - I would love to see him as Morse's replacement

    He came back in for the final drive.  Tough kid.

    I watched some of his highlights. He is a monster! Can't believe how fast he is being that big. Question though, will he be available for us to draft and would we do it in Rnd 1?

    Likely not.

    Here's my consolation:  John Ridgeway from Arkansas.  Probably available in round 3 or 4, former wrestler, about 325.  He played solid in the Outback Bowl vs PSU.  Lunch pail guy.  Can't quite crunch the pocket like Davis, but really hard to move, even when doubled, and you can't run right at him.

    Davis looks massive. I started to watch the game. Didn't he come out for the coin toss? I think it was him and I said, Holy crap. He just made everyone else look small. 😱

    He was DEMOLISHING Michigan's pocket on nearly every play, even when doubled.

    I'll start with, I am NOT a college football guy. I do plan on trying to watch some today though. For you that are, As we wrap up the Bowl games, have your opinions changed at all on some players? Any suggestions on who to watch today? Potential draft picks to pay attention to?

    I've got my eye on Iowa-Kentucky today to get a final look at C Tyler Linderbaum of Iowa - though I doubt he falls to us.

    While the trade is fair (possibly slightly better for the giants imo). 

     

    Do you honestly feel a RB will fix our running game? I don't. If the OL were better we wouldn't be in this situation. 

     

    Blocking scheme? Maybe idk. Fact is until you can block a RB is irrelevant IMO.

    We could upgrade the line quickly with solid draft capital.  Linderbaum comes to mind.  Or how about team Brown back up with his NI teammate in Trevor Penning?
