  1. Bills need better WR's. The issue is how you spend top ten draft picks.

     

    My preference:

     

    Franchise QB

     

    Elite Pass Rusher

     

    Elite Pass Catcher

     

    Elite Tackle

     

    Elite Corner

     

    This is how you spend a top ten pick.

    My choice is QB, if you believe in the kid.

     

    Tired of not having a QB, and feel we need to take best available by when we pick, or if we have a conviction about one trade up and get who WE want.

     

    The draft is not the only way to get players. I feel youcan fill any position via free agency, with QB being more difficult. Just draft the guy you want, do what it takes and get it done. Stop chasing your tail.

  2. Find it difficult when any team moves, feel bad for the fan base...could have been us.

     

    Feel that there is a huge legacy of the Raiders in Oakland (except for the brief LA experiment) that will be lost when moving to Vegas. That being said, they have been playing in a terrible stadium for years, and the city didn't step up to the plate to extend a reasonable offer in the past. As a businessman, how can Davis not take what Vegas is offering? Plus the $$$ from luxury boxes/seats/PSL's will be huge. I'm sure he will pull off some of the same things Jones has in Dallas with monies that are not shared with the league.

     

    It'll be interesting seeing how long the love affair in Vegas lasts.

  3. Don't like the move to cut NRC. Don't have a ton of quality depth at CB, and don't like the idea of adding through the draft as we need safety's and WR's also.

     

    As far as Carp. I know he had a less than stellar past 2 years. Not sure there is anyone currently available that is any better, unless you draft someone. Again, don't have a ton of picks and a lot of needs. Must be planning on being very active in FA.

  4. Bills have passed on Derrick Carr, Dak Prescott, Russell Wilson and more.

     

    I get your fear. But we can't just ignore the position every year.

     

    Seems like every year, we either pass on someone that nobody knows will hit, ie: Prescott, Wilson and Carr, or we just miss on the guy we "supposedly" wanted.

     

    Need to be aggressive. If they have their eyes on a certain guy, draft him. Who cares if it's a "reach", if you want him then draft him a round ahead of the targeted round. Yeah, it backfired with Manuel, but at least they targeted the guy they wanted and got him - was a poor QB draft to begin with.

     

    You'd think that over time, they would just simply stumble onto a QB that is good...just by pure luck.

  5. Probably why bills are intetested in siemian, played as good as some of these guys but doesnt even make a mil per year

     

    Not a huge fan of TT, but there aren't many options if we release him. I do like the idea of Siemian, wasn't awful and has great contract numbers. If TT is gone, let Siemian and Cardale fight it out.

     

    If TT goes and we go into next season without picking up a veteran, we are in full rebuild mode. Looks like it may have been the wrong year to finally get season tickets! :doh:

  6. I'm the one who would end up embarrassed....despite it all. I will miss BBMB......The " Anything but Bills " sub forum was really great...Music. movies, food, beer....tons of solid threads....

    Back in the day, "anything but" is what drove me to BBMB. Really had some good threads, and funny stuff. Then the ban hammer started swinging, and that section, along with the main boards were shot.

     

    What I like about TBD is less obnoxiousness.

  7. I could care less about losing my post history. It's not like I had a reputation, but it's just weird that the whole thing just went "POOF". Everything - gone.

     

    I did meet a few dudes on there. Had a beer with DenverBill. Had several beers with B-Large. Climbed a mountain with JellyDonut. All solid guys. My experience was slightly different, but it was disappointing that for as active and spirited as the BBMB was, the community side of it was very, very lacking.

     

    PLEASE tell me this place doesn't think Chad Kelly is the next messiah. I don't want to see those posts every day.

    Sums it up well.

     

    Interesting seeing those guys names, haven't seem them in forever. Was terribly hard to keep up with those banned. Unless you saw they were banned in a current thread, couldn't keep up with those going.

  8. Here's the thing, if they can't handle a message board meltdown, how are they going to handle a football team?

     

    It's just a message board. I could handle a meltdown on that by myself.

     

    But what we have is an NFL management team, who can't handle a rowdy message board. That scares me.

     

    That board was an important place for hundreds of the thousands of people who used it for around 15 years. It was rude and mean spirited and disrespectful to just shut it down like they did. Cowardly even. If they had been rasied rtight they would have known you give people a chance to connect and reminisce and say goodbye. And yes you have to handle some posters who would have been melting down. Big deal.

     

    The Buffalo Bills humiliate and debase themselves and they don't even realize it. Afraid of message board posters going off, that is just pathetic.

    I agree. Cowardly. Not a smart move on their part. The official message board of the team?

     

    I'll say this though, board was a shell of itself for a few years. Lost its edge. Yeah, a few posters may have been a bit over the top, but it was good conversation. Once they went on a ban-a-rama, lost good posters and others were afraid of being pointed.

     

    Anyways, been here for years. Good place!

  9. yessir.

     

    actually, there was a very active sim league there. i'm sure the sim league people would have loved a heads up so they could keep the league going elsewhere. additionally, an email to all users telling them that the boards were getting shut down would have been classy. instead of just SURPRISE nothing exists!

    No way they could have warned people. Would have been a free-for-all!

     

    Would have been an amazing meltdown though!

  10. They do all lie, except for Bernie, who believes what he's saying, whether we agree with him or not.

     

    That said, having the thinnest skinned person I have ever seen in public life making important decisions is personally terrifying to me.

     

    Honestly, it is terrifying that trump could possibly be in charge of our nuclear arsenal. Absolutely terrifying.
