  1. Pat Williams, Brian Moorman, and Fred Jackson were top 10 drought All-Stars too
  2. I wouldn't be stunned - people like sexy names at the top of the draft and at premium positions. I'm sure the fanbase got all fired up about our great draft when we traded up for Sammy Watkins. Or how about when we picked CJ Spiller, Marshawn Lynch, and Willis McGahee? Or when we won the offseason when we traded for Lesean McCoy? No thanks, I'll take this draft any day of the week
  3. Every year, I become a bigger fan of Beane's team building strategy Free Agency is to plug immediate holes and find plug & play starters and high snap count rotation players Draft is for development, depth, and future backfills Obviously there are some exceptions, especially in the first round of the draft, but this is exactly how you build a sustainable, competitive roster. Once you begin to "need" the draft to find multiple starters each year, it means that your current talent isn't performing or you're top-heavy vs the cap I enjoy not being in that boat any longer
  4. I can't see us cutting both Horrible Harry and Justin Zimmer. We need to have at least one big body option other than Star to play 1T.
  5. I'm very confident that Beane will find one or two veteran free agent finds this summer in the low-to-mid $ range to help address the depth gap. Not a worry right now, but I think they'll know more after they see what they have in mini-camp, i.e. if the rookies can play this year
  6. Fun fact - this is the first Bills draft since the pre-salary cap era of 1991 that we signed 3 of our original picks to 2nd contracts It has always felt like this, more than anything else, contributed to the long period of mediocrity, and indirectly to all of the bad free-agent spends as well.
  7. I'll be worried about the Browns when they find a better QB than Faker Mayfield
  8. Urban is a fraud - I doubt he makes it past 3 years And having lived in Jacksonville myself during the Tebow era, I know how crappy of an experience going to a game is. They're barely the 8th most popular team in town, and I'm probably being generous
  9. I'm in the boat of letting the draft come to us this year. We have a lot of young cheap depth that's going to age out in the next 1-2 years that's going to need to be replaced. It takes cheap draft picks to do that. Yes, I'd like to win, but I don't want to become this top-heavy have/have-not club either. That's the quickest path back to 6 win purgatory
  10. Whatever product Josh endorses, the commercial needs to end with him diving through a folding table
  11. This was a fun season that started my true Bills fandom at the ripe old age of 14. The defense was absolutely stifling even with Bruce sampling the nose candy. Good think too, because despite having an up-and-coming QB, we gave way too many carries to stiffs like Jamie Mueller and Carl Byrum
  12. Exactly - the only right answer is "who cares". This isn't 1977 - the best teams in the league win by passing the football. I enjoy that finally, we are one of them
  13. It's Wallace all day. He's done great for being an UDFA but it's easy to tell that his talent level isn't enough to make his starting position sustainable long-term
  14. I think it's Dallas all the way. NBC will want to hype up Dak's return as well
  15. If having a top notch, Super Bowl caliber team means that I'm much less interested in the draft, I'll gladly take it. It got real tiring having an awful-to-mediocre team then watching them pick guys like Mike Williams, Donte Whitner, and Marcel Dareus with high selections Let's not do that again for a long long time
  16. Where can I go to place all my earthly possessions, income, and the souls of my children on the over???
  17. I happen to enjoy that we scored 500 points last year. Really don't care that much how many we gave up
  18. This is a ridiculous assertion. We've had a top defense until last year when some injuries and opt-outs hurt a lot more than any draft or FA misses did. And frankly, I'm much happier that they have a top offense and a middling defense vs having a top defense and a middling offense It's a much stronger and sustainable brand of football. Would you prefer that we bring another GM in to make these decisions??? Again - ridiculous
  19. Good for Cleveland I wouldn't touch that guy with a 39 1/2 foot pole
  20. Are they having some kind of March 18th promotion on Chippewa that they need some stiff to hold down one end of the bar?
  21. yes, let's please get back on the cycle of overpaying the most replaceable position in football. Should we also pursue Todd Gurley? Melvin Gordon? Mark Ingram? David Johnson?
