Similar value when Beane traded Sammy Watkins as a 1 year rental by the Rams. He used that pick as part of the trade up for Josh Allen.

Austin Proehl's brother is one of the contestants on American Idol. I think the real source is Simon Cowell.

If Rex Ryan was the coach the Bills would have drafted Deshaun Watson instead of trading the pick to KC in 2017. Then there would have been the double scandal of massage therapists having Watson exposing himself & rubbing against them while Ryan fondled their feet.

Most of the players listed above were at the end of their careers. I looked at it more as what players went on to bigger & better things after they left. Top 2 are Wyatt Teller & Jason Peters, with Marshawn Lynch not far behind. Guys retire or get let go or leave in free agency, all as part of the business. But my top 3 were given away for pennies on the dollar & flourished in their new locations.

Years ago, there was the Olof Paril hoax that had a story of an offensive line prospect that the Bills were interested in. I think it originated out of Rochester. At one point there was word that one of the other NFL teams actually believed it and wanted more information on him before the draft. Eventually it was revealed that Olof Paril was an anagram for April Fool.

The same RT got ejected on that play for spitting on the opponent.

NFL GMs may not be that good at recognizing a QB bust coming out of college, but they are good at recognizing a QB bust at the NFL level. That's why it's virtually impossible to take a busted 1st or 2nd round and get anything good out of him. If the NFL GMs hadn't considered Field a bust the Bears would have gotten a lot more when they traded him than they did (a 2025 6th that can become a 4th). The rest of the league didn't consider him starting material & the team that traded for him gave up virtually nothing for a backup with starters experience on the last year of his rookie contract.

He may end up being the Covid QB like Jake Fromm was in 2020. Pay him his guaranteed money & keep him away from the rest of the team "just in case". 😄 How did they mismanage him other than putting him out on the field where he could STB? I've heard this before with guys like EJ Manuel & JP Losman too many times. The 3 have one thing in common, not mismanaged, just 1st round busts.

He'd be better playing in warm weather. He's from San Diego & went to Stanford. I guess Beane didn't believe Deion & wanted to show him how wrong he thinks Deion is about kids who grow up in warm weather playing in cold weather cities.

The wedding was Friday, you're too late, but it's not too late to send a gift.

Frank Reich was the holder.

Tyler Bass got married to the daughter of late former Bills punter. Will their 1st born son be a punter or a kicker? https://www.zola.com/wedding/ryantutenandtylerbass

It's all about the length of contracts. Fields is in the last year of his, Pickett has 2 years left.

Another horrible QB draft class. The only QB who has done anything was the last guy picked in the draft. 1st 2 QBs already traded.

Or Mason Rudolph

Drew Lock to the Giants to replace Tyrod.

Damien Lewis was great as Bobby Axelrod in Billions and Nicholas Brody in Homeland.

So SF is getting the #1 pick in the 2025 draft, great. 😠

They still get taxed for road games in states with income tax. Their IRS returns are a nightmare.

5 1st rounders & when Fields is traded 4 of them won't make it to a 4th season with the team that drafted them. Those 4 all sent away for pennies on the dollar at best. Even Lawrence has underperformed his draft projection. He was supposed to be a superstar & he's just an average starter.

Back in the day when they sold programs I used to get a program for every game I went to. I have all the home programs from 1991 through 2007 (except one that got stolen inside the stadium when I left my seat for a few minutes). I also have many programs from other seasons. I used to get the media guide from 1986 until they stopped printing them. One of my most prized programs is a free one. (not as good as the old programs they used to sell) I got opening day in Baltimore in 2018. Unfortunately, it's in poor condition because it rained the whole game, but it was the 1st real game for both Josh and Lamar. Both came in in the 2nd half to begin their careers. I also have all 4 of the Bills Super Bowl programs and ticket stubs. I have a lot of Bills ticket stubs. I miss the old days of full sized game day and PRO programs, printed media guides, yearbooks, and printed tickets. Everything is electronic or a worthless handout these days.

I'm not a Democrat but you wouldn't know that. I wonder how you formed any opinion of my political views since I almost never post in the politics section of TBD. Maybe you're as confused as Trump & think I'm someone else. Man, you are one dumb POS, drawing conclusions with your pea brain. Unlike you, I actually listen to complete speeches from both Trump & Biden. I never tried to diagnose Trump, just laid out some facts on how diminished his verbal & cognitive abilities appear to be. You on the other hand use limited information combined with your limited intelligence to come to a conclusion that you can't possibly come to. All by watching a few minutes of Hannity or some other fellow loser.

I question anyone's cognitive ability who refers to Biden's "obvious dementia." You obviously are a Trump cult member who watches right wing media without forming an opinion by any real observation. Or you have dementia. I can't diagnose you from afar, just like you, Mr. Hypocrite, can't diagnose Biden from the rock you are living under.

The evidence is there if you watch his speeches . Obviously whatever you are watching, reading, or listening to has sanitizing what he's been saying. Just last week in the middle of a sentence he started slurring incoherently talking gibberish. So you need to expand your news sources and stop saying someone is lying when they are telling the truth. How about this for evidence: in the Carroll deposition he looked at a photo of himself, Ivana, Carroll and her husband at the time and claimed Carroll was Marla Maples, his ex wife. You probably never saw that in your sanitized world.

I'm willing to take a wait and see attitude and at least see what he can be when healthy. I'm drawing a line through last season due to the injury. If he is still not worth activating after preseason then it's over, but who knows. He could end up starting with Benford moving to one of the vacant safety spots.
