Smith-Schuster or Zay Jones in Round 2 would be fine in my book, if a guy we really love drops to 10.

Solid move! And maybe gave us some cap room in the process.

Bills tried to sign RT Ricky Wagner; headed to Lions
bills_fan replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is ridiculous. I'm trying to read a thread about RTs. And I have 57 posts about Gillmore to ignore. Can you PLEASE stick the Gillmore posts in their own thread and argue all you want about it there? Leave this thread alone for RTs. -
official Buffalo Bills message board shut down
bills_fan replied to Bills_Chick's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Meh...I been here since the beginning anyway and rarely went there. Honestly, they made a big mistake. Not everyone uses all the social media. I'm not going to be able to get any analysis from social media...certainly not like a message board. And thats what I come here for. If I want to see a cool pic, I'll go to IG. Very shortsighted by the Bills. -
Unintended Leak of Tyrod's Future??
bills_fan replied to theesir's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He left the game vs Miami with the lead and "saved" the season. He played his best game as a Bill in that game. I was hoping he would get another chance to build upon that success. Looks like he will. Sometimes QBs need to be "developed" and I think he is developing quite nicely. Lets get a RT and a WR in FA/draft and roll. -
Evaluation of 5 Quarterbacks in the 2017 Draft
bills_fan replied to GunnerBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You mean the potential season saving game vs Miami when he left the field in the 4th quarter with the lead after driving his team down the field for the potential winning TD? Too bad Rex's defense could do squat. IF we had Schwartz's defense with Greg Roman's offense the last two years we would have made the playoffs both years. -
Iceland is AWESOME! Rekjavik is a very fun party town. The people are friendly and I thought the food was pretty good. Iceland Air runs specials all the time where they will give you a free hotel room if you book a "stopover" flight to mainland Europe. Since I cant stand sitting on a plane for more than 5-6 hours, thats how I always go to Europe. Stopover in Rekjavik each way. Sometimes I have to pay for the hotel myself if the airline is not running a special, but its still a very good deal.

We need a head football coach. The best one available is in college. Offer $15-20 million a year and full personnel control and bring Nick Saban to Buffalo. Get it right this time. Hire the best.

Video Breakdown: Greg Roman's Run Concepts
bills_fan replied to Cover 1's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Great watch. I love Roman. I remember reading where one of the talking heads at TBN called his offense "antiquated." Well, I believe in zigging when everyone else is sagging in life and that philosophy has served me well. I think it will serve the Bills well too. -
Tyler Dunne's Q&A with Tyrod Taylor
bills_fan replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I LOVED reading this Q&A...we may have FINALLY found ourselves a QB. If we have a QB, we will have a chance in every game. He sounds poised, confident and certainly seems to be working hard. Color me truly optimistic for the first time in a loooong time. -
2-yr-old dragged into water by gator in Florida, dies
bills_fan replied to YoloinOhio's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I have stayed at this resort and sat on this very beach. Its a little sand/beach area along the lakefront. Maybe 5 feet wide of sand. Its very shallow along the edge. It seems, from what I read, that the parents were closeby and watching the child waiting for the fireworks show to begin. Its a common place to watch the fireworks. There was a No Swimming sign posted but nothing about gators when I was there. The problem may be that the gator may have been too used to people. Not having a natural fear of humans (maybe because the gator was hand fed at some point) meant this gator just waltzed up and saw an easy meal. I cannot imagine anything more horrific to happen to a family. My prayers go out to them. -
Brady to be SUSPENDED next week according to report
bills_fan replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If you use baseball as a guide (the only other sport where the bats/balls can be tinkered with to gain an advantage), he should be suspended. Pitchers are suspended all the time for doctoring baseballs, similarly hitters with corked bats. Most suspensions for this sort of thing in baseball is 8-10 games....not much considering the season is 162 games. Now the NFL doesn't want to look soft here and the Pats* are repeat offenders in rule bending, so I think Brady gets 4 games with it being reduced on appeal to 2 games. Just my gut feeling. -
Mathis was described in one article I read as excelling at zone blocking. I dont think Roman's scheme uses zone blocking, more straight ahead mauling from what I know about it (which I admit is very limited). I want a G or T as much as anyone and believe it would be the prefect cherry to a great offseason. But I want a guy who fits our scheme seamlessly if thats possible.

Any other ex-smokers out there?
bills_fan replied to Pine Barrens Mafia's topic in Off the Wall Archives
To all those vaping in this thread...what brand do you use? Does it simulate the taste of cigarettes (I smoke Marlboro Red)? I was thinking of trying out the vaping as a replacement for the cigarettes and just wanted to see any recommendations. -
I think Sammy is gonna be good, but he needs to be Megatron 2 in order to justify this payment. And we are not just one player away either. Reading Peter King's piece this morning on it, Whaley sounded like an idiot fan rather than a GM who is supposed to be above the fray. I may love Sammy as a player, but I hate the cost of the move-up.
-
Yup. And I am very cool with that! Safest pick in the draft.

Buffalo Bills Fan Advisory Board meeting 4/10
bills_fan replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Congrats! Any way to bring back fried bologna? I really miss it...part of the game day experience for me and my Dad for many years. -
Booked a hotel room and bought a few lift tickets from Liftopia for Whiteface Mountain this weekend. One of the last ski weekends of the year.

How about a Moment of Silence for Ralph Wilson

The first item you pack for family trips is a fresh bottle of Laphroaig 10 year Cask Strength (my daily go to). When said trip lasts more than 3 nites, you pack a second bottle. Mind you....we will be out to dinner every nite drinking beer, wine etc., and grab a roadie from the hotel bar on the way upstairs. But hotel bars close early and I tend to be nocturnal.

Anyone know where to get a good fish fry in NYC?

anybody ever grow a privacy screen?
bills_fan replied to birdog1960's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I'm also interested in this for the same reason (corner lot). Hoping to stay with evergreens and looking for ones that grow fast and get a minimum of 20 feet tall with minimal maintenance.
