    Hypothetical let's say we are stuck at 28 can't find a way up or down. Due to a run on QB and WR an OT like Taliese Fuga falls to our spot, Chop Robinson is also there as well, who do you pick?

    VERY good question. I don't know anything about the OT you named but if he is thought to be a fine LT and is still there, I would say grab him.

  2. Battleships confide in me and tell me where you are,
    Shining, flying, purple wolfhound, show me where you are,
    Lost in summer, morning, winter, travel very far,
    Lost in musing circumstances, that's just where you are

     

    Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face
    Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human, silly human race,
    On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
    If the summer change to winter, yours is no,
    Yours is no disgrace
    Yours is no disgrace
    Yours is no disgrace

    1967-1972 and 1989-1994 are the two greatest musical periods in history IMO

    Both were excellent periods. The early 90's were great and stayed that way through much, though not all of the decade. In 89, Jerry Garcia was sober, or at least close to it. The Dead concerts in Philly, Buffalo, and the Meadowlands were superb.

     

    A case could be made that 1967-1972 changed the entire musical scene.

    Man, the Bears front office is so reminiscent of the Bills drought braintrust.   @PromoTheRobot would be like a pig in sh!t shouting down rightfully angry fans and defending that clown show. 😂

    Well, look where we got Jauron from!!!

     

    And for unaware posters, you knew Jauron would suck as a coach and said so almost the very second Levy signed him (Jauron was like his clone in many ways). The two of them had a special team/secondary love fest and ignored OL and QB and yes, some fans defended them.

    I don’t often disagree with you, but I sure do here. 
     

    if you look at the Bills current roster— and I’ll say including reserve/future— at what positions would you say the Bills are thin?

     

    To my eye:

    Offense:

    QB, excellent 

    OL, adequate 

    WR, thin(ish)

    RB, adequate 

    TE, deep

    Defense:

    DT, thin

    DE, thin

    LB, adequate(ish)

    S, thin

    CB, thin

     

    And where were the majority of our injuries last season? We ignore defensive depth at our peril. 

    You are making sense but remember when Kelly, Bruce, Thurman, and Andre were getting old at the same time? Instead of thinking about their replacements, the Bills drafted cornerbacks. It obviously didn't work and I would hate to see this happen again. Diggs isn't getting better from where I sit and certainly isn't getting younger. Also, guards are now suddenly getting the big bucks. OL depth is wonderful to have.

    We might never have another QB as talented as Josh. Now is the time to give him more weapons and protection. 

    As always, jmo.

    Diggs, Shakir, Hollins, Samuel, Shorter…even Kincaid (WR/TE). Nice WR room.

     

    Face it…we need an interior O lineman or a safety.
     

    Deal with it.  

    Great suggestion!  It was a smart move to pass on Mahomes and draft a cornerback. We also should not have drafted Josh Allen if there was a good safety available. Actually I'm kinda surprised this didn't happen. 

     

    I sure do pine for the Levy/Jauron days. With McDermott, there is perhaps some chance that he won't take a first round safety. :( Is Jauron still available? 👍

    This is a move that I do think makes the Ravens better…how much is yet to be seen, but seems like a no brainer fit.  Makes the Saquon deal look even worse IMO.  

    Good for him!!! Henry is a great guy and has been for years.

    My goodness I would sure hate that! And the first person I would want to check in on would be @Bill from NYC :)

    Yes, if it happens please do. A first round DB this season would not be good for my health. That said, I will be better equipped to handle it than I was in 2006 when we drafted Donte Whitner at #8.

    The truth is that I never fully got over that disaster. :)

    There is that argument. And football is not basketball. But part of the appeal of the NCAA basketball tournaments is every team, all 360+ schools, can become national champion. In football it's only 4 schools that are picked by a committee.

    True enough, however UMass and University of Texas might not be such a big draw or great game.

    As long as they give the G5 (or how ever any non-power conferences there are these days) a couple seats. If I ran things every conference champ would be in.

    I can understand this. I would feel the same way if I didn't care about the quality of the teams.

  13. So I went to the corner
    Just to ease my pain
    Said, just to ease my pain
    I got troubles, whoa-oh
    I got worries, whoa-oh
    I came home again


    But I woke up this mornin'
    You were on my mind
    And, you were on my mind
    (Yeah) I got troubles, whoa-oh
    I got worries, whoa-oh
    I got wounds to bind

    So you're saying there is a chance?  Cmon. It's a thought exercise. Amuse us. ... And just for that I'm praying to Football Jesus that we draft a safety and corner in the first two rounds. 😜

    I expect it but hope that McDermott isn't THAT stupid.

     

    As for Bowers, he has a chance to be as good as Gronk. He is shockingly good and I expect him to be gone in the top 10. I would draft him in a heartbeat.

    Would you be tempted? Could you? I won't go into a million hypotheticals but the draft is deep in WR. There are only so many first round grades on WR. This is the top TE in the draft.

     

    Now that Knox has restructured maybe he could be traded.

    There is a greater possibility of me getting a date with Margot Robbie than Bowers being there when we pick.
