GunnerBill Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 29 minutes ago, Bill_with_it said: To each there own. It’s clear we will never be able to have a discussion with out disagreement about Mack. Your statement saying he isn’t the best defensive player from that draft tells me that. Donald is close to being mentioned in the same breath. Clowney still has to show he can show up for more than a year or so. Barr is good but can’t be mentioned in the same breath as Mack. I’m a FSU fan by the way. I wasn’t a huge Mack fan while he was in college, but that has quickly changed. There’s one team I despise as much as the patriots it’s the raiders; I fine myself tuning in to watch Mack and think if only we had a GM with half a brain during 2014.... Oh I wish we had drafted Mack too and I would love him in Buffalo. But Aaron Donald is HANDS DOWN the best defensive player in that draft. He is the best defensive player in the NFL. Period.

Victory Formation Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 DE is absolutely a position you spend top dollar on, that's just my opinion. A good DE can be a game changer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dkollidas Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I honestly think he might sit out into the season, but ultimately he’ll play out this year, Raiders will Tab him and he’ll be traded during the 2019 off-season to a team that will pay top dollar.

Okay, I'm going to be that guy.... It's actually U at B, for State University of New York at Buffalo. It was U of B until the 60s when the state absorbed the private school into the SUNY system.

The other is when they say the lower score first. "What's the score?" "10-17" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. It’s a discussion board discussing an elite player who is from the area, or at least went to college in the area. I don’t think anyone truly believes that the Bills are gonna trade for him. It’s just a discussion about a player who many fans wanted. To tell people to stop taking about something on a forum designed to do just that is ridiculous. If we were limited to talking about stuff we knew would happen, how boring would the draft have been, or talking about the upcoming season? That response is no different than me saying I think the Bills will win 10 games this year (I don’t) and someone saying I need to stop because it won’t happen. Who cares?

Exactly, anyone who gets angry about a post of says something demeaning to another poster are sad human beings. Im a lifetime bills fan, which means everything about football has been hopes and fantasy up to last season. People like Cornette just live miserable lives so they anonymously vent here. Also, this is still basically dead time for football. Have some dang fun Edited July 30, 2018 by BillsMafia13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I have hope that the Bills trade for Mack. Seeing he has yet to speak with Gruden, the fact he is pissed that he was franchised, and it seems Khalil is quite fond of Buffalo. This is not Hank Bullough Buffalo Bills. I am buying what McDermott and Beane are selling. And I surmise many players around league are as well. What if Mack continues to hold out through week 2? If Mack truly wants out of Oakland he can force it Mack and Edmunds would be scary together. With Mack and a healthy D, we might have best D in NFL IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
