  1. Good for him. The whole bugging of the massage room is a blatant breach of privacy, IMO. Then to drag his name through the whole trafficking mud when his circumstance had nothing to do with trafficking was an attempt to make the story a lot bigger than it was. Kraft was probably one of the few men who was indicted who had the money and legal advice to expose this case for what it was.......a whole lot of nothing.
  2. I like Damn that's a lot of bold. I could envision: 8, 12, or 14 I would heavily bet against any of the other things happening. He did say bold, though, so I have to give you that.
  3. Boy, that was a tough listen. I didn't realize how awkward/bad Tim Graham was at interviewing. The beginning was painful.
  4. It's heavily juiced to the over, I believe it's -170 to bet the over now, which means it'll probably be moved to 7 in the near future.
  5. I think there's a reason we didn't see any of that. Just my feeling, but I think Henderson and or Montgomery both of whom went just picks before the Bills would've been the guy if they were still there. I like the both of them much more than Singletary.
  6. I'm not a Singletary guy. He's very small and very slow. All of his speed and change of direction measurables were really bad......and I think his pedestrian athleticism shows up on tape. The step up in competition for him is going to be drastic, we'll see how it goes. What bummed me is I was really high on the 2 RB's that went right before we piked Singletary (Henderson and Montgomery). Henderson had the speed....and Montgomery I think has the makeup to be a good starter in the league. A little slow, but I like just about everything else.
  7. I actually like the 3PM show quite a bit. I love Mike Schopp. I know a lot of people don't, but I find his opinions to be unique and for the most part very honest. He's the exact opposite of a homer, which I think is refreshing. Bulldog is okay, he's much better as Schopp's sidekick, than he is when he has to host on his own (which can sometimes be brutal to listen to. Jeremey White is awful, IMO. I think he's tried to carve out the same niche as Mike.....but it just doesnt work for him.
  8. Don't you think he looks slow on tape though? I thought a lot of his bouncing around behind the LOS looked good in college, but he won't have that time in the pros. I thought he looked slow....and his testing backed that up. Small and slow is not a combination I'm willing to gamble on at the RB position especially in the 3rd round. The 2 RB's that went right before him, Henderson & Montgomery I thought were much better.
  9. Don't trade up! Blowing 3's and 4's to move up 5-10 spots in the 2nd is a bad practice. Let the board fall to you. Stick and pick. Maybe even move back 10 spots and pick up an additional. Who doesn't like getting 3 players tonight instead of 2. With the extra 3rd give me a RB with some juice.
  10. Harsh but I tend to agree. Sal, seems like a good dude, but his overall awareness and takes on the Bills are often off base and usually too homer for me. The other day he was spitballing what it might take to move up. He didnt like the idea of them going all the way up to 3 because itd probably be too expensive, agreed. Then he went on to say something to the effect of "who knows maybe if it gets to pick 5 or 6, maybe it only takes a 5th rounder to move up." If you're paid to cover the Bills and the NFL draft youd think he would have a better understanding of the NFL trade value chart. In his defense he was spitballing, but theres just a lot of those with him.
  11. Atlanta giving us their 3rd and 4th rounder to move up 5 spots works out perfectly on the trade chart....I'd love that. That would give the Bills two 3rd rounders and three 4th rounder in addition to their 1st and 2nd round picks.......That's ton of ammo to move up in rounds 1 and 2 to target guys they like
  12. I believe those are old.pictures from 8 years ago when they did the last installation
  13. If you're of the belief that trading down from #9 can get you picks 12 and 30 than you're either the biggest Bill's homer or you dont understand the trade value chart. That would be an all time fleecing on the Bills part. The Bills would be happy to get a 3rd rounder to move back 3 spots.
  14. I despise the idea of trading up, especially if you have to give up a day 2 pick, which the Bills would absolutely have to do. It's a 2nd rounder if they have to get to #4 It's a 3rd rounder & both of our 4th rounders to get to #5 It's a 3rd and 5th rounder to get to #6 It's a 3rd rounder, but we get back a 4th rounder to get to #7 Like I said I hate the idea, but if they do I hope it's no higher than #6, because if it is we are going to be blowing some heavy draft capital for 1 player
  15. The only guy I like as a 1st rounder is AJ Brown and I'd want to take him in the 20-32 range. I'm a hard pass on Metcalf.
  16. I know most fans like to draw up scenarios where the Bills trade up, but I'm of the opposite thinking. The smart money in the draft is trading down and accumulating additional picks. More spins on the roulette wheel, so to speak. And with this post, I've cooked up a dream scenario, 5 players in top 74 picks (a thing of beauty): Trade 1: Raiders get #9 & #112 Bills get #24 & #27 Raiders want to get a QB at 9 after taking a blue chipper at #4 Trade 2: Texans get #27 Bills get #54 & #55 Texans look to make a major move back into the end of the 1st round to secure an OT after not selecting an OL with their 23rd pick This leaves the Bills with picks: #24 #40 #54 #55 #74 If you like the way the Bills managed FA, then you should also like this setup. Strength in numbers.....with those 5 picks you're looking at being able to pick up 4-5 players that could possibly start or contribute heavily in 2019.
  17. Very cool...and judging by your name I'm guessing you spend much of it in SE Asia. What baseball team do you work for?
  18. I've been a season ticket holder since 2002: Started in section 117 Spent a few season bouncing around on the visitors sideline Spent the last 10ish or so seasons in Section 136, Row 21 Today I upgraded to Section 134, Row 44. Looks like it's right about at the 45 yard line,which I'm pretty pumped about.......the row, 44, is a little high, but it was my only option to keep my 4 seats together in this section so I went for it. Anybody else in a higher row like this? How do you like them?
  19. Overweight, slow, not quick, doesnt fight for the ball, and appears to have no desire to be out on a football field when he plays. I dont remember disliking a player on the Bills quite like I loathed Benjamin. For all the credit Beane gets around here, he deserves a ton of blame for blowing a 3rd rounder on that guy.
  20. Jawan Taylor has some medical concerns as well as weight issue concerns according to Tony Pauline. I think his stock is lower than what many mock drafters would have you believe.
  21. I despise your Gants trade down sce I despise that Giants trade down scenario. I like the Raiders one quite a bit.
  22. It doesn't have to be and you're right about the Bills massively overpaying last year. By the standard of the draft value chart they got fleeced. The Bills overpayed by 410 points, which is the equivalent of the 49th pick in the draft, a premium pick. In order to get a massive overpay you have to have to teams bidding for the same spot, which apparently happened last year as it was widely reported the Cardinals coveted Josh Allen and were "heartbroken" via Chris Simms when they lost out to the Bills in their attempt to trade up for him........maybe the same thing can happen for the Bills this year at the #9 spot.
  23. I tend to agree, but for the sake of the post I wanted to make the trades as realistic as possible....I've seen some mocks with Bills trade downs that are totally unrealistic, like The Bills getting a 2nd rounder for moving down 2 spots. It'd be awesome for the Bills, but it's a totally homer view of things.
  24. If this was an actual bet you could put money down on you'd have to make the field at least -350 in order to get equal money on each side of the bet. So betting the field as an EVEN money bet would be an absolute no brainer. I'd actually bet -350 on the field
