I'm of the mindset, the Bills should definitely move up. They are still in win now mode, as long as Josh Allen is in his prime years. He needs an elite WR, and with Diggs gone it matters even more. Let's face it, they will do whatever they can do to win a Super Bowl now. Once Allen is gone or his career ends, they can rebuild from scratch. For now, do what it takes to get a damn elite WR.

As I recall, Ruff was pretty good with Dallas and he did lead the NJ Devils to 52 wins and 112 points last year. The Devils got poor goaltending this season which Ruff paid the price for. I'm not inspired by this hire either, but I've always liked Lindy and he has an edge to him that this team needs. Hoping for the best.

if only there were 925 millionaires in WNY.
Back in the mid-late 1990's, you could buy two, maybe three NFL teams for $925M. Crazy.

Sorry, but i hate the re-hire thing. Hope im wrong but i was wanting a proven coach from outside the organization.

Bottom line is Beane left it open to trading up, trading down, or staying put at #28. He's not going to telegraph a lean in any direction, as he shouldn't.
I do enjoy BB press conferences. He enjoys talking football and the reporters do mix in some thought provoking questions that he clearly likes to break down and provide good answers.

I know people aren’t going to like it but as we get closer my gut feeling is telling me it’s going to be Keon Coleman after a trade down. There is a lot there that fits Buffalo and their philosophy
I think the Bills are trading up to get a stud WR. Just not sure how much of a price they are willing to pay in draft assets to get there? They don't want to leave the cupboard bare in other positions... But McD and Beane are keenly aware they are in Josh Allen's prime right now, and you have to get this man a STUD, right now.

The first hurdle has been cleared!
Now we must be sure NOT TO HIRE SETH APPERT.
That would be classic Pegula and a classic error...leading to 14 seasons without playoffs.
Gotta bring in the right type of coach; experienced, tough, proven at least to a degree.
He must demand respect from the players and he has to have some level of discipline to help the kids improve.
Berube? Gallant? Boudreau?
Some will suggest Ruff. I say "NO" to that, but he would be a big improvement over Granato.
Weird that ALL assistant coaches haven't been fired. I assume all will be gone once new guy is here and organized.
The next coach has to be a proven playoff coach who is tough, who has an edge. The players here need to practice well and get some tough love. No more players coaches in Buffalo. Look at guys like Tortorella, Laviloette, Patrick Roy is like that...Brinda' Mour.. etc.. They demand results.

It was a playoffs or bust season...and this proves it.
I've said before, will say it again...they need to overpay and hire a proven coach who has been a winner and playoff head coach. Someone who knows what it takes game in and game out, practices, etc...

So the 3rd helmet has to be some variation of a blue or maybe black helmet. Maybe some chrome mixed in!
-
So if i play along with this message board, let’s add Harty to Gabe Davis and Diggs as players that will surely have a big hand in eliminating the Bills from the playoffs this season or keeping them from getting in.

I remember during that time thinking how dumb it was that the defense was making a case that the police set up OJ or framed him. and how gullible the jury was. I mean in order to frame OJ, it would have to be known in advance that OJ’s whereabouts for that 45 mins or whatever could not be proven. So what if he was at a game?, or a restaurant with friends, or a gala, or somewhere in another town. I guess the police would’ve looked pretty stupid “planting” all that OJ evidence. He was so guilty a little child could see through all the lies. I mean a cop used the N-word ten years earlier so clearly he was framing OJ. yeah ok.
The public and everyone loved OJ back then, right up until he did what he did.

Lot's of old standing Buffalo helmet videos and pics on the National mainstream news shows today...

Imagine the Chutzpah of murdering two people, denying it despite a mountain of evidence, getting acquitted and then writing a very accurate book titled "If I did it". That's just nuts.

Do you think OJ will be excluded from the wall of fame in the new stadium?
I do.
Yeah I think the organization can divest itself from OJ since he's dead and it will be a new setup over there. I don't believe a single person in the country, other than his kids would care if he's left off the wall in the future.

It's such a strange position that the Buffalo Bills PR finds themselves in. You wonder if there will be even a mention of his passing on the official website. My guess is no. His name looms up there on the wall as I suppose it would just create even more attention if they were to take it down. You wonder if the wall will be created at the new stadium and this closes the chapter on any chance of the Juice being officially referenced any longer.
I think the Bills sit this one out. The only attention they will receive for putting out an RIP type statement is negative attention.

What is the one common denominator over the 13 years? PEGULA. OF COURSE IT IS.
Whenever a franchise goes this bad for this long, it's ALWAYS the ownership.
You would think Buffalo sports fans would be aware of this, seeing as we went through EXACTLY the same thing with the Bills for @ 20 years with Ralph. There was a LONG stretch of time where the Bills were garbage, were going to remain garbage, and nothing anyone did would change the situation substantially until RALPH DIED.I truly feel we are in a similar situation now; we need Pegula to sell the Sabres and focus on the Bills.
It is, by far, the #1 way to move this franchise forward, quickly.
I agree and have been saying for at least 3 years,, SELL THE TEAM Terry! I really have no idea why he would not want to divest the Sabres...they are a professional embarrassment for his owership legacy and the arena needs massive upgrading which is expensive.
On the flip side, I know someone in WNY who is a big wig in the community and he has cautioned me to be careful what you wish for. If Terry does decide to sell, there's a very real possibility a new buyer relocates the team to another city. Terry will not do that as long as he owns them. So do we want disappointing hockey every year? or possibly no hockey.

What do you think ownership is doing wrong? I mean, they bought the Bills and within their 3rd full season of ownership got their HC and GM and the team was finally back in the playoffs after 17 seasons. And hockey is Terry's first love. I mean the team was very successful under Golisano who was cheap and didn't care about hockey, other than wanting to prevent the Sabres from leaving Buffalo.
There's such a deeply entrenched culture of losing with the Sabres over 13 years, it's so hard to turn it around. You'd think once over this draught the club would luck out into a solid playoff season like we see from other teams every year (i.e. NJ last year or Vancouver this year). But nope, not here. We can't have nice things.
They draft children, and hope the kids develop into good NHL players,,, but it's not always the case. And these kids have no real idea what it takes to make the playoffs game in and game out. I personally think the Sabres need to spend on a head coach who's been there and done it (like the Rangers hired Laviolette this season)....and infuse the roster with some experienced solid players who have playoff experience.

Since WNY was clouded over, plan a trip to Spain for August 12, 2026.

Diggs put out another vague tweet on X earlier. Just so glad its some other fan base that has to decode it.

That was some lame ass *****. What a let down!i feel for the poor bastards that flew into Niagara Falls. Don’t people do their research? Wny is an arm pit!
As i told some friends where I live....if you want to go to the one spot on earth to be let down in sports and weather...go to Buffalo. Guaranteed to let you down.
Except for Wings. Those we do better than anyone else on earth.

They had one of the Washington DC TV news meteorologists live in Buffalo. They went to him once and saw it was all cloudy and didn't go to him again. Kind of a bummer for WNY to not have nice skies.
-
Hope the clouds break. Feel bad for all those folks that drove or flew to WNY for this. Meanwhile Cleveland, Indy and all of northern New England region is basking in Sunshine.

I was telling that to my family as well yesterday. on the biggest day in the biggest moment of the year, Buffalo will choke even the sky chokes.

Rumor: Bills trying aggressively to move up for a WR in round one
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
Beane doesn't seem like a guy that waits for any 'ol player to "fall" to him. He goes up and gets who he loves. That's what he will do tomorrow night.
