NFL schedule release: May 12th 8pm
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
Can't see them easily giving up the day, from what I read NBA plans to continue as they have. But will be interesting. -
Would you still like JA if he was on another team?
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
While I do agree 100% he has a very engaging and likeable personality makes it easy to say you'd love him but as they DON'T say in the stock market: Past performance does indicate future results! For the most part, at some point or another everyone else is hated! Maybe if we went to an NFC team like the Bears or somewhere that has lost for a long time, maybe then he's be viewed in good terms. But if he were say to beat the Bills in the SB, he'd be dead to everyone here! -
Maybe they draft a WR who has return experience. But even if they do, will they want to put a rookie back there doing it? Once they signed Crowder, IMO not so sure McKenzie's role chances much from what he did last season. So by default McKenzie may be main return guy. Only other choice likely would be Stevenson. Not sure he even makes the roster though if they do draft a rookie. WR high.

My comment was more directed toward just the fact that it was 23 + rounds long. Who are they drafting, the 3rd string punter or something. Admittedly was a different situation as no free agency, so these players you had long term unless cut or traded. On the other hand some amazing players drop to the 23rd round like Lamonica.

Bills Sign former Titan OT/OG David Quessenberry
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall
Is he related?? When I saw the last name, Dan was the first guy I thought of! -
Drafted in the 23rd round, wow. Imagine the coverage that would require from ESPN! Front office must have brought sleeping bags to the draft!
-
If T White hadn't got hurt, would completely agree with his logic. But IMO that changes alot here with CB in general. Unless they feel strongly that White will be back Sept 1st at 80 to 90%??

Did they play together prior?

Glad to know I'm not crazy. Or we both are! -

Beautiful day for some Quesadillas??? I heard "Beautiful day to take some videos!!" Or were joking?? Siran Neal looks a little bit like he could be Leslie Fraziers kid, face looks similar. -
I might be an outlier here...... Draft needs
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch replied to Yantha's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yes but if you want to take credit for that one, right below is an article talking about them taking the Safety Hamilton, a position you stated they can ignore. -
So Sling now gives the local channels where you live? I just Googled it, says it only carries NBC and Fox in certain cities. No ABC or CBS. Or they will give you an antenna. Nothing in Western NY is listed BTW With You Tube you also get all the local networks which are where the televised games are on.

The OP must work for the Athletic as article today with mock draft has Bills taking center in first round. LOL Not sure I buy it but.... Can he also play guard? Doesn't say, if so could more see this happening and he starts out at guard. https://theathletic.com/3249591/2022/04/18/nfl-mock-draft-smokescreen-season-at-no-1-texans-eagles-trade-up-for-defensive-cornerstones/ Tyler Linderbaum, Center, Iowa Interior offensive linemen have been an issue for Buffalo during Josh Allen’s tenure as quarterback, and Linderbaum provides an immediate salve to a group that was leaky in protection early in 2021. The best quarterbacks and offensive coordinators rave about what an elite center does for an offense play-to-play, and Linderbaum may well be an All-Pro before he completes his rookie contract. -
I have You Tube TV, has a pretty good lineup for sports station IMO one of the better ones all around. Plus I wanted the "Live TV" part too which Sling and many of the others don't offer. The only other one I'm aware of that has Live TV is Hulu. I wanted live TV as own 2 houses in different states so can use in two places. If I went with Cable would need a package for two locations And yes is much less and with as much competition, prices stay more stable.

Do 4:25 games count as prime time or are we just talking night games only? I'll go 2 Sunday Night, 1 Monday, a Saturday, is every team still required to play a Thursday game? Would they go back to back years and have them play at Detroit on turkey day? On top of that add in a couple 4:25 games too. If Rams not prime time, that could easily be a 4:25 due to time difference.

If it's like baseball the difference between one team and full league pricing was non significant IMO to bother with the one team option. Think it was about 80% of the full price, but was a couple years back when I last looked. Agree, but not buying having to buy DTV on top of ST makes it much cheaper overall.
-
Yes I did, so what's your point?

I'm sure there will be reports as to the level he participates in this off-season workout program starting Tuesday. The 1st two weeks is just conditioning, so would think he should be able to do stretches, etc if any chance of him being ready by Sept/Oct. Or the opposite could happen and the CB we draft shuts down the WR. For the most part Hill was burning Wallace and Jackson, if you have White back even if it's2023 at 100% and a 1st round CB as the #2 CB, add in the two safetys we have and T Johnson and not sure how many WR will be beating the group. If he's a top level CB, why do you expect him to be beat?

First off I'm fine with drafting a punter in the 5th or 6th. But don't think punting is nearly as important as holding, not with this offense. You state anyone can be trained to hold. Well the reality is there will be one guy only holding, the punter so he's the one who will need to be trained. Not saying a rookie can't be good at it, but to me that's more important than a couple more yards. The difference between Haack and the top punter on net yards is around 7 yards, but comparing to the top in the league is unrealistic. Compare to the league average is better, then the difference drops to 3 yards Seemed like he was worse last year in Green Bay.

You mean like a bad hold, something we saw a lot of with Bojo. And you want to put a rookie back there with limited experience with holding . There were only 2 punts ran back for TD's all last season, Bojo alone had more missed field goals due to bad holds. BTW, one of the TD's returned was against him too With a football field only 100 yards long correct that's not very likely. The Bills have a pretty good offense, how many times did they go three and out? Assume they start on their own 20/25 after a touch back and gain only one first down and another 5 yards and now have 4th and 5 on the 40. A punt going 50 yards in the air would land at the 10, likely anything much longer will be left to roll into the end zone anyway. I'd imagine a punters target would be around the 10 for that reason and for bad bounces. So the likelihood of gaining ten yards on a punt is not likely. As stated above the net difference between the best and worst punters in the league was only 6 yards. If his leg is a strong as advertised, with Araiza, good chance the team could lead the league in touch backs. I'd also be a bit nervous with him if he would mentally try to just boom everything to impress?
