Get your elderly family members front row or back row so they don't have to stand/can stand up and lean. Or wheel them in.
If it's 3rd/4th down I'm standing up to cheer - too bad if you don't like it.
You really need to follow the conversation or stay out of it

This all assumes that Garrett Grayson is a sure thing...
It slices both ways, what if the Bills take Grayson, who then turns out to be a flop, and they miss out on a qualify DL that could replace Kyle or Mario Williams in the future? You're fine with the Bills drafting Grayson because you think everything will turn out fine. What if Grayson sucks and EJ sucks, what then? It's a wasted pick that could have been Player X.
Also, the Bills have holes, you are assuming the Bills make it through the season injury free. Like I said in my previous post the Bills have 3 OT on the team. They also don't have a backup center. Those are holes, fairly large ones if an injury occurs.
We do not have the offensive linemen to make Romans's scheme work....we HAVE to start there
-
You mean like trading a 1st round pick to move up to take a WR in a WR rich draft?
Can I borrow that crystal ball?
-
I'd be disappointed with that pick at 50. I've seen him a bunch, he's got to sit for at least a year.
Perhaps that is the plan?
It should have been the plan with EJ Manuel but they screwed it up.
I really think they dont like any of these qbs

This is so much more complicated then most of you are presenting it......
The problems with this team did NOT just reside with Buddy Nix.....and I know that this is going to sound like a slam at Ralph Wilson (god bless him) but it is not
NOTHING WAS GOING TO CHANGE....until ownership changed for this team.....it needed to start fresh from the top and work its way down
Buddy Nix was a part of that old group.....there were mistakes by him and there was success......but all anyone will be able to see is the win loss record....and that is their RIGHT as bills fans. Some of us like to look a little deeper into the situation.
Look at what is happening with the bills right now.....it has more to do with just with having the most signing bonus money put out by any NFL team it is
- Increased scouting
- More money spent on coaches
THOSE THINGS CANNOT BE DISCOUNTED.....they really cannot....Buddy Nix worked with what he had to work with.
-
He just likes that we are gonna feature a FB in our offense
-
No playoffs in 15 years and the fans still coming through like a mo fo
NOBODY has better fans then the Buffalo Bills
-
I think Buddy DEF deserves some credit for the turnaround......
He was here when the days were darkest.....and when he left u could see the light even though we were not there yet.
-
Mariotta is a good kid....a quality guy and a good football player
Wish him well.
-
I actually think the aquisitiion of Gray is what made Chandler expendable.....
-
Preston Prown was SUCH a good pick.....a real feather in our Whaley's cap.
For all the crap Doug Whaley takes......most of his draft picks have been solid....it took him a while to find the right coach fit but he has it......and he has the 5th richest owner in the NFL backing him up.
His game speed really impressed me, so I decided to compare his speed with Kiko's.
40 times H Mid L
Kiko: 4.85, 4.74, 4.64
PB: 4.86, 4.78, 4.68
Not much difference there.
What is interesting is that while they have nearly the same measurables.......Brown is much more thick and shows a much better ability to shed and tackle......
Kiko is a exellent instinctive player......but he plays small on the field......too often especially towards the end of the year Kiko was getting washed out of plays because of overpursuit
While that sometimes leads to plays....it also creates big wholes. When you see Brown play....is is very fundamentally sound......he does NOT overpursue
-
He can park sideways for all i give a frak......JUST WIN
-
I would throw Bryce Brown into that as well......
This is the first piece Rodent has done that I can actually read without wanting to claw my own eyes out.....
Personally I think that this process has already began
- I think Manny Lawson could go and be replaced by Randel Johnson.....Randel Johnson started off slow.....but seemed to get better every week and really could fly around the field.....he had some injury problems in his first year
- McKelvin replaced by Ross Cockrell.......McKelvin is a excellent ST's returner...but we appear to have that covered....Cockrell has that size, physical that you look for in a corner
- You also have guys like Robey....who flat out make plays....and releasing McKelvin opens the door for more playing time for Robey
-
Because it worked so well with Fitzpatrick?
Mmm, no but Cassel does
Somehow I dont think he was brought in for Matt Cassel
-
I dont know a thing about hockey......let me start with that.....
Eichel seems like a guy that could star for the sabers for years and years......and you didnt have to trade any other players or picks to get him......
It is in fact a "team" and the better players you have at all the postitions the more a team will win.

In his prior stint here, Lee tried to "fix" Fitz and I thought he actually regressed. It was almost like you could see the wheels turning as he thought about technique rather being his natural gunslinger self.
Maybe E.J. will be more successful in being coached up, but I'm not sold on Lee's ability to be that guy...
The whole "teaching old dogs new tricks" things
Somehow I dont think EJ falls into this category

This is a good discussion topic
One thing I would like to throw in here is overall team concept and how teams are usually not balanced....meaning one side of the ball for them is not as good as the other side at any given time.
Our defense is GREAT.....they have a legit chance to be the number 1 overall defense in the league
AND
We have player talent on the offensive side of the ball to have this discussion.....those other teams do not. They cant. Its all on the O side of the ball.
-
I think this is a year where they should just hold their ground and pick
-
I honestly could care less what the fins do.....
It doesnt matter what our AFC East Rivals do outside of the patriots because they have a franchise QB
It doenst matter who they bring into the fins our D can and should completely shut them down......We are Tanahilla's vampire garlic
All that matters at this point....ALL that matters is whether we can manufactor points......because our D will do more then keep us in it.
-
Randell Johnson...the kid is gonna be good
I think so as well......a LOT of potential there
-
Going from a division game on Sunday to an away division game on Thursday? That's my only gripe.
Going from a division game on Sunday to an away division game on Thursday? That's my only gripe.
Sure....but that doesnt make for a tough schedule.....these opponents look totally beatable
-
These are my thoughts too, except the defensive pessimist in me makes me think 7-9, 8-8 are perhaps more likely. Tough schedule, but it's impossible to know who will suck and who will dominate between now and the season...
I would like to know what is so tough about this schedule......seriously

I think this team is going to start leaning heavily on Duke Williams the way they did on Searcy imo
