  1. Lol... well time to do something productive with my day.
  2. Top 3 pick, 10 picks total, pretty good cap space... Next year looks much better than this year. Ugh...
  3. When the Bills are in Nashville ALL of the bars there are Bills bars, lol!
  4. Sad that it took me to get to page 3 to see a post with the exact same reason why I’m a Celtics fan. Too many Buffalo fans forgot (or never knew) that the Buffalo Braves and Boston Celtics swapped franchises before the Braves went out to San Diego.
  5. Yes, I've seen him throw. I wouldn't say he's got way more anticipation that Tyrod. Oh, and he'll throw alright, but that will lead to INT's. We've already got a guy on the team that can do that.
  6. Not happy with the pick. He's got too many issues that we hope "can" be fixed. We also have a ton of holes to fill and gave up too much to land Allen. We needed to rebuild the OL, get a LB or 2, and get a WR desperately. Yeah , we "needed" a QB, but we flinched.... we freaking flinched. I've said this all along... be patient, just be patient and let the draft come to us. Nope... we couldn't do so, and now I'm already hoping we go 2-14 so we have the #1 next year and do something smart like trade out of that and grab the talent that we needed to grab this year. We were all pissed at Tyrod's accuracy issues and lack of anticipation, and what do we do? We draft a kid with less experience that has the SAME damned issues! Next I'll hear all about his damned high "ceiling"... I have a high ceiling in my living room. Ugh.......
  7. Nice story... the kid has the size for the position, but its hard to get a feel for him with such little film. One thing I noticed was that he seems to throw to the first option almost every time. Also, his ball seems like it lacks polish, but he seems to have a strong enough arm. He'd be a fun project.
  8. Fair enough, but I'd also be cautious in the hype generated by the media over QB's... the position IS important, the most important on the field, but again I ask if the hype generated is making this years draft class more prolific than it actually is? Then we "feel" that we "have" to get a QB and we pass up the opportunity to fill numerous roster spots with higher end draft picks. One good thing is the cap space looks better for us the next few years, so who knows what the plan is.
  9. 25 years, lol... ok. Hell, you all are SO dead set on us sucking next year with AJ that we're probably gonna be in prime position to draft in the top 10 next year. At least if we did that we might actually have an OL and WR's for him because we got them all this year.
  10. Who is THE guy? Is there one, or are we just going to be fixated at a position because we just HAVE to take one? If there's a GUARANTEE that any one of those QB's are the savior, a generational type player, then cool... I'm in. But, I've not read ANYTHING that says this QB class is that talented. Starters yes... a few Pro Bowls... perhaps. But worthy of 3 #1's+? I'm not sold.
  11. Let it play our on Draft Day... sit tight Beane, let the loose cannons lose their heads!!!!
  12. 6 high picks?!?!?!?! HELL NO!!!!!!!! I've dealt with losing... it sucks, but one more year of if won't kill me! Give me all those picks to fill holes. Let AJ do his thing, go 5-11 and be in position to grab a QB next year if need be. This **** is getting ridiculous!
  13. EJ Manual was taken with the Bills first pick in the '13 Draft. I'm all about being aggressive, but do you throw away an entire Draft in the "hopes" that a guy can be the one? I'm not overly excited about ANY of these QB's but everyone is going crazy about grabbing one. Is it a need? Yep a big one. Would I like to get one with our first pick? Sure. Do I want to have a shiny new toy with nobody for him to throw the ball to? With a 30 yr old RB and an O-Line that needs help and depth. Does he sit on the sideline while our porous D can't stop the run and has a hard time getting to the QB and can't cover a TE? I mean a good young QB could be put into a HORRIBLE situation and be damaged forever if not in a good system/position.
  14. If the Bills do this... the 3-13 G-Men will be back in the Playoffs before we are. We can't go freaking crazy because the Jets did. We have the ammo for some damned good additions on both sides of the ball, with youth and depth. I know we need a QB, but damn.
  15. They do, and McBeane did a good job in a full year now clearing excess cap weight. This won't be a one year change, but it's not a rebuild either. We can make some good moves this year and then again next. We'll be in good shape IF the process is working.
  16. Point taken, and while that's true, I don't foresee us going 4-12. I would think a 9-7 WC team slipping to 6-10 would be an appropriate comparison. I agree with McDermott... we could have easily been 7-9 this past year, but we don't have the depth needed at many positions and as much as I want to love Tyrod, he's not going to win games all on his own like Rodgers, Brady, Brees, etc... So, move up and grab your (potential) QB of the future or stay and grab the depth...? From what we've heard, I can see us going in either direction.
  17. I agree... tough schedule, but can/will the process overcome that? Will a trade up for a Baker Mayfield type move us faster to where we want to be, or does staying put and grabbing some help at DT, OL, WR or LB with all of our picks do us better?
  18. I didn't try to compare stats to this.... no yardage, completion %, TD's to INT's... I was comparing records... a 4-12 team 30 years ago most likely had the same issues/struggles as a 4-12 team in this era. We were discussing whether you'd be ok with a 4-12 record with an up and coming QB. Some people see that as a bad thing, or a step back... my point was that a young up and coming QB could be the answer sooner than later, and used Jimbo and the '86 Bills as a reference.
  19. 1986 Bills were 4-12 in Jim Kelly's *Rookie year. AFC Championship game 2 years later.... just sayin'.
  20. Awesome! That's how you get 'em young and oblivious!
  21. Out of stock of almost everything, lol. You'd think being a hometown company they should have known to have made a ton more!
