Bill from NYC

OK but did you think that I would be that objective?

I met the playmate Janet Lupo while I was dating her cousin. She was a freaking complete 10 and her cousin got pissed off about me talking to her, but SHE introduced us. What was I supposed to do, ignore her?

Shaking in the desert, wherefore do you cry Here there may be rattle snakes to punch you in the eye Shotguns full of silver, bullets made of glass String barbed wire at your feet and do not let you pass When push comes to shove, You're afraid of love RIP Robert Hunter

Yes but he would have fared better with Josh. I'm NOT saying that I wanted the Bills to take him whereas I don't like drafting running backs that early in the modern NFL. That said, Najee is a GREAT blocker and receiver. He's a good strong runner too although he does lack blinding speed. He would be a very effective weapon for Josh. and provide him with extra time. He would be an asset to the Bills.

Watch out now, take care Beware of the thoughts that linger Winding up inside your head The hopelessness around you In the dead of night Beware of sadness It can hit you It can hurt you Make you sore and what is more That is not what you are here for

This is such wonderful news! God is great!!!!!

Comes a time, when you're driftin' Comes a time when you settle down Comes a light, feelings liftin' Lift that baby right up off the ground Oh, this old world keeps spinnin' 'round It's a wonder, tall trees ain't layin' down There comes a time

I have vivid recollection of those two decades. The thing is, in those years the Bills coaches/front offices were unthinkably bad, and the ones with any skill at all were held back by Mr. Wilson and his "cash to cap" policy. The Levy/Jauron years were indescribably horrible, to the point of being embarrassing. McDermott has a rich and rather free spending owner. The mistakes he made are on him, both on and off the field. The fact that he is a better coach than a lazy, washed up Rex Ryan isn't really much to brag about. He needs to be held accountable for his mistakes but its almost as if he has cast a spell on Pegula. In that sense I agree that he probably isn't going anywhere.

We Are young but getting old before our time We'll leave the T.V. and the radio behind Don't you wonder what we'll find Steppin' out tonight

And I chuckle about your pom pom waving, 1 man cheering section, (outcomes notwithstanding) but certainly, let's hope.

If we can, let's put everything aside and let only logic be our guide for the sake of this conversation.... 1) If Carter is to be a "leader" on the Bills, please tell me who he will lead and when. 2) What do you think Josh Allen would have been more pleased to have, a 6'2" defensive tackle from Duke who might be a "leader" in the future (if he is still with the team) or another receiver with speed? 3) In round two (after trading down), McDermott selected a wide receiver who is listed as running a 4.62 40. In fact, on this linked site he had the worst 40 time of any listed wideout. Does this even concern you a little bit? https://gbnreport.com/2024-wr-ranking/ Now, if we play a 12 package we will have two TEs and a comparatively slow wide receiver, this for a QB with a cannon. Call me crazy but I don't like this very much. Btw, I re-read my post to you and consider it to be too harsh. I am sorry, and I do pray for more patience. Be well.

OK, I'll bite. How in hell does this draft bring "leadership" to the Bills? Which rookie will be the leader? I understand your ever present pom pom waving. After all, it is a Bills Board. That said, is there any possible thing that McDermott could do that you wouldn't swear is great? Do you think even a little before you post about "leadership" from rather unheralded draftees? Geez.

I fully agree. The Bills traded down twice in round one. Both teams to which they traded their picks selected a wide receiver. Then when their turn comes up, the Bills also picked a wide receiver. I just cannot understand how this can make sense to anyone. In round 2, McDermott of course picks a safety, thus using a premium pick on a postiion seen as less essential than most others. In round 3, he drafts a DT (also not a highly valued position in the new NFL) who is listed at 6'2". OK, got it. Talk about less important positions, how about a running back in round 4?! So there we have it, A comparatively slow wide receiver, a safety in round two, a short DT, and a running back with our top 4 picks. How much will this help Josh Allen, our GREAT quarterback? The answer would seem to be not enough. Sounds bad, right? The good news is that McDermott didn't draft the safety in round one, which I expected him to. Now, how much will Josh appreciate this debacle? You tell me. This makes the draft that much more suspect. As I said from day one, McDermott has WAY too much power in this organization. Beane is more of an administrator WAY more than he is a football man and has very little if any sway wrt personnel imo. McDermott needs to be shown the door if the Bills do not improve this season. Will he be fired? I don't think so. It's as if he cast some sort of spell on Pegula. Sad situation but we can just hope for the best.

Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart And I will love you Forever and ever, we never will part Oh, how I'll love you Together, together, that's how it must be To live without you Would only mean heartbreak for me

Agreed but McDermott waited longer than I thought he would to draft a defensive back. I’ll be happy if I hit the power ball! 🙂

Sure! Great move by McDummy to help the Chiefs improve their team by getting the player they want. i wonder why nobody on this board came up with this novel idea. No prob, there are still plenty of safeties ready to be picked.

Seriously, great job!!!!!

Let me be there in your morning Let me be there in your night Let me change whatever's wrong, and make it right Let me take you through that wonderland That only two can share All I ask you is let me be there

Agreed. I don't want a Whaley type move of stupidly giving away the store with trade ups, and McDermott did give away picks for Edmunds and Elam. I also think that quarterbacks AND receivers obviously benefit from very strong offensive lines. A quarterback like Josh can find any receiver given all day to throw. Your stats went back 20 years but the NFL is an increasingly offense oriented league, passing in particular. I think that the Bills should focus on wide receivers and blockers for depth. This would well serve to keep the Bills competitive. One last point.....I saw the blame that you placed on the Bills losses in recent big games, but you left out McDermott. I'm just sayin.....

I wish I was a headlight, on a north bound train I wish I was a headlight, on a north bound train I'd shine my light through cool Colorado rain I know you rider gonna miss me when I'm gone I know you rider gonna miss me when I'm gone Gonna miss your baby, from rolling in your arms

Owner, so I could fire McDermott and hire a real GM to run the team, not a puppet.

So raise the candles high 'Cause if you don't we could stay black against the night Oh, raise them higher again And if you do we could stay dry against the rain Lay down, lay down, lay it all down Let your white birds smile up, at the ones who stand and frown Lay down, lay down, lay it all down Let your white birds smile up, at the ones who stand and frown

I would pass hundreds of cars on my way to the morgue, and I suspect this speaks for most of us.

I only want to hold you, I don't want to tie you down Or fit you in the lines I might've drawn. It's just that I, oh I have gotten used to havin' you around. The landscape would be empty if you were gone But it's all right cause I love you, and that's not going to change. Run me around and make me hurt again and again. But I'll still sing you love songs, written in the letter of your name. The rain is gonna come, oh it surely looks like rain.

Goin' down the road feeling bad Goin' down the road feeling bad Goin' down the road feeling bad, yeah, yeah I don't want to be treated this a-way
