Bills re-sign LS Reid Ferguson - 3 year deal
buffaloboyinATL replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So this got me wondering. What is the reason that they don't convert another lineman on the active roster to long snapper to save a roster spot? Is it that the skill set is so difficult to learn or is it that too much practice has to go into that spot, which would take away from that players "main" job? I am assuming long snapper is a specialist for every team, not just an additional duty for another player on the roster. Does anyone use an actual position player (not just one in title) rather than a specialist? -
Chris Trapasso Mock Draft: Bills take DT Ed Oliver
buffaloboyinATL replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The benefit of building a team with a good culture is that you can add a player or two with a sketchy history and count on your team leaders keeping him on the right path. That being said, aside from some questions about him taking off plays, I never heard much about him being an issue, until his run in with Applewhite. Everyone deserves a pass, but if it helped him drop to us at 9, we owe Major A. a big thank you. -
Chris Trapasso Mock Draft: Bills take DT Ed Oliver
buffaloboyinATL replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I have heard rumors that the Giants are high on Drew Lock. I am praying this is true, but it is probably draft misdirection. But damn, if they took Lock at 6 it would completely shake up the first round, hopefully in our favor. -

Still working on getting it done as far as I know. Strong interest on both sides according to Phillips. -
Chris Trapasso Mock Draft: Bills take DT Ed Oliver
buffaloboyinATL replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
For the record, I'd be happy with this. He is very talented, and at one point considered a top 3 pick before his run in with Major Applewhite. I prefer OL or WR, but if Oliver is on the board at 9, he is the BPA in my opinion. I just re-watched some of his highlights just for a refresher, and man can that guy move for a guy his size. He is fast off the ball and relentless in his pursuit. He would absolutely make this Defense better and be fun to watch at the same time. -

Did someone tell them this isn't 2018? ? -
Bills/Redskins Potential Trade Down
buffaloboyinATL replied to RPbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Spoiler alert. This is similar to the Redskins may want to trade up for a QB thread. -
Alex Smith Likely to miss all of 2019

At first I was thinking: Is Antowain Smith still playing? -
Jim Kelly wants to sit down with Josh Allen...
buffaloboyinATL replied to LabattBlue's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Wow! I love this. Any chance to learn from a great is priceless. I imagine Allen will jump at the chance! Of course, he will consider if the advise is applicable, but if it is, why not listen to someone who’s been there at a high level. -
Draftniks: Name your 2019 Draft "Crush"
buffaloboyinATL replied to Logic's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
After watching the Senior Bowl and taking a closer look, I really hope the Bills end up drafting Keelan Doss from UC Davis. He is a great route runner with good size and decent speed. He is currently projected as a 6-7 rounder but my guess is that he will move up during the draft process. If he is available in the 4th round, I hope we run to the podium. He is a great Beane and McDermott type player. Team leader who had an opportunity to transfer to a bigger school in his senior year for more exposure, but he chose to stay at UC Davis to continue helping grow their program. https://www.nfldraftdiamonds.com/2018/08/keelan-doss/ “He came back for us,” said Jake Maier, the Aggies’ junior quarterback. “He could’ve been selfish, he could’ve left and took his talents to the NFL or even (Football Bowl Subdivision) ball, but he decided that we were more important than that, so just from that action alone, that makes him one of the best leaders I’ve ever been around.” The 6-foot-3 captain isn’t only one of the best leaders that Maier’s seen, he may also be one of the best student-athletes that UC Davis coach Dan Hawkins has ever had. Doss, who will graduate in December with a sociology degree, was recently named to the STATS Football Championship Subdivision preseason All-America first team after a record-setting season in 2017. The 2017 Big Sky Offensive Player of the Year set all-time UC Davis records with 115 receptions and 1,499 receiving yards, while being ranked No. 1 in both the FCS and FBS in receiving yards, receiving yards per game (136.3) and receptions per game (10.5). “It’s hard to find a small guy that runs like him, let alone a big guy,” Hawkins said, “so he’s a matchup problem with his size and … no offense because I’ve coached some really good players, but I just think you start looking at grades and size and speed and you start putting all that stuff together, he’s pretty darn special.” Read more here: https://www.sacbee.com/sports/college/article216123390.html#storylink=cpy -
This Is Why Spending Big $ For A RB Is Not Wise:
buffaloboyinATL replied to YodaMan79's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Aaron Jones late in the 5th round. Wow, that is a good group of RB's. -
It was that magical moment when the best player available also happened to fill a position of need, which is why they were willing to move up to get them. With Allen, they were trying to move up to get him even higher than where we picked him and I believe with Edmunds, he dropped down further than they had expected which made him by far the best player available on their board, which made it easily worth the cost in their eyes.

Taking on Blake bortles contract?????
buffaloboyinATL replied to Heff's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
A total basketball move. I was surprised to see it with Osweiler, but to be honest, if we have the cap space and the Jags need to clear some, it would be a worthwhile move. -
Is Tom Brady A Cheater?
buffaloboyinATL replied to Marv's Neighbor's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is awesome! I love it. -
I don't think that it is that cut and dry. A loyal fan base is great, but many of these owners want to big their big ego stadiums in cities with a lot of support from major corporations. They want stadiums with sold out luxury seats and high PSL's. I am glad the Pegula's were not tempted by that allure and instead were happy to reward a loyal fanbase by keeping the team where it is and attempting to build a winner in Buffalo.

Laser Pointer Gate part deux
buffaloboyinATL replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
And the officials -
I have had this argument ad naseum. The argument that they are good enough to win without cheating, does not excuse the fact that they did. It would be like a straight A student and getting caught with notes during a test and then arguing that they knew the information without the notes. Doesn’t matter, it is still cheating.

And just like that, we are all Rams fans.

Uh, I never thought of that angle. I really hope they never get to 4 in a row.
