Bill from NYC

As I said, if I was a betting man I would place a very large wager on the Bills. Seriously.

Maybe they should have Victor Allotey and Marcus Spriggs lead the charge together. Nah, never mind. The flag would fall and injure the quarterback.

He was a horrible draft choice. That year we had traded away our first round pick and that little shrimp was, although a second round pick, our first selection in that draft. Sadly, it would not be the last time we wasted a high pick for an all but useless gadget player.

I agree 100% with the above!!! The Bills have all this money in free agency and that is great, but if we continue to ignore key positions such as the Offensive Line in the draft, chances are that we will not get out of the miserable rut in the foreseeable future. Blockers, especially OTs are hard to get in trades or free agency, unless you are dealing with the Bills. We all know that Allen is talented. Fine thanks, but he needs protection and he needs weapons. I am well aware that teams cannot click on every draft pick, but if we could just find good players to surround our QB with, why shouldn't we win?

While I want a win, I would be 100% OK with a loss. That said, we long time Bills Fans know deep down that the Bills are going to win, gain nothing, and get a worse draft pick.

I'm not sure where you are going with this. Other than well wishes, do we owe him something?

Yeah but so did the freaking jets! I don't usually feel this way but imo winning at this point serves little to no purpose. If I was into sports betting, I would place a seriously large wager on the Bills on Sunday, and I am 100% serious.

Very true and at the rate his is going he should get a pretty nice deal somewhere.

Well, on the other hand Foster has fresh legs and is less banged up than he would have been at virtually any other school although he will have to wait to really get paid. Also, look at what Bama players are doing this season in the NFL. They are tearing the league apart at numerous positions Dave. And as far as Foster and other receivers, I am guessing that Coach Saban sits in their homes and shows their parents copies of Julio Jones's contract when he is recruiting them.

I was rather young but I liked it from day 1.

The White Album was always my favorite. I really liked "Savoy Truffle" and was never sure exactly why lol. I looked up that song on Wiki and it said Harrison wrote it about Clapton's love for sweets, and how it was hurting his teeth ("you'll have to have them all pulled out after the savoy truffle"). Who knew?

Nice post but I fully disagree about Mayfield. A hybrid of one of the best passers ever and perhaps the best running qb ever (or at least top 5)? I hardly think so but again, I appreciate the post.

Yeah, he is from Texas so I always had a hunch he would go there.

Yolo, I read an article on a Crimson Tide FB page that says Jalen Hurts is considering a transfer to Ohio State. It is supposedly a reputable source.

Coach Saban says he is very pleased with this class of recruits. He also claims that he focused heavily on the offensive line. This of course was a brilliant thing to do, considering that we will come to camp with at least 1 GREAT quarterback, and maybe 2 or 3 other star qbs. I sincerely believe that if the Crimson Tide can do a good job of blocking next season, they will be almost impossible to stop but of course anything can happen.

That would be excellent.

He will need them. Jeudy, Ruggs, and D. Smith are what I consider to be great receivers. I'm thankful that Waddle is only a freshman but he will need help.

That is what I suspected. Please don't get me wrong.....if he was that upset by the incident he should transfer out. I am all for it! It does however broach the possibility of a player who wants to leave a school actually planting someone in the crowd and behaving as such. Sorry, my brain thinks like this.

How so? I am not arguing but I don't think I understand.

That is pretty amazing because once we sat behind the Bills bench in the 2nd row, and Pat Williams was bigger than Big Sam Adams.

I am hoping for wide receivers. We could realistically lose 2 great ones, perhaps 3 after 2019. And as you may have guessed, I am always wanting blockers, DL, and 3/4 olbs.

This is a VERY important class for Alabama because they will be losing a slew of great players after 2019.

I remember when Parcells paid Center Kevin Mawae HUGE bucks and said that the contract was because of Ted Washington.

The above is true but what we are also seeing is many Alabama players (Foster for one) are coming into the league with fresh legs. Look at Da'Shaun Hand on the Lions. He was one of the top recruits in the entire country but couldn't see the field much because of Jonathan Allen. Even Kenyan Drake wasn't really a starter and look at what he is doing. There are other examples. Wait until 2020 when at least 3 receivers will be draft eligible and all of them are great!!! QBs don't really need to come from big programs these days Yolo. Our own QB is from Wyoming, and the kid from Clemson chose Missouri (where he is replacing a pretty good QB). I even liked what I saw from the kid at Duke. It seems to me that QBs can pick and choose their schools without it making a huge difference these days.
