I had to take my wife to the emergency room earlier today and they kept her overnight. My son woke me up to the news and I’m just leaving to go home for the night. As I was exiting I passed 2 young guys and they wished me a good night. As I passed through the double doors I stopped and turned around. I took a few steps back and asked them if they watch football. They both said yes and as I was standing there in my Abuffali sweat jacket I informed them that the Bills just traded for AB. It was great seeing their faces drop as I pointed to the emblem on my jacket I gave them a great “Go Bills” salute! Hahaha, it’s a great time to be a Bills’ fan! Go Bills!

 

Great story and best of luck to your wife. Hope all is well.

Wtf with all the jokes about AB being sent to the cold and that there isn’t a lot to do? Have these people ever been to Pittsburgh? Not much difference with these cities. I’m there once/month, believe me.

While several teams had leapt to the forefront — the #Raiders, the #Redskins, the #Titans — the #Bills were stealth. There are things to work out, but Buffalo is on its way to getting AB. And they do have a need at WR.

People need to relax with this 9th pick stuff. No way in hell did we trade our 9th pick for Brown. And whoever shared that fake AB twitter account link should be banned imo...

But man what an exciting pickup! Gotta see what the compensation is but I think a 2nd round pick wouldve gotten it done. Perhaps a combo of swapping 1sts at the most.

Boom Beane gettin er done!

 

It wasn't Twitter, it was his Instagram

He is not even going to show up. Beane and McDermott deserve to be fired if we lose picks for this.

 

We wouldn't be trading for him without reasonable assurances from his agent that he'd not only show up but also extend. Brown was quite clear about wanting a new deal and he has leverage in the form of a no trade.

If he doesn't show, they certainly do.

If he does, and he's a team player, they deserve a round of applause.

Too bad he'll be 31 years old already ?

What is the “Jordan poyer” situation people are mentioning relating to this? Speculation he’s part of the trade?

 

AB reported had relations with poyer’s wife while they were engaged.

Maybe Buffalo doesn't have enough bridges to their liking. ?

His play dropped off a bit last year according to 2 different analytics sites and Juju outplayed him according to both. He was top rated on 1 the year before and much higher rated on the other. I think he is the kind of guy who will not age well and will blame others as he declines.

Our WR unit is trash. I don’t understand how adding one of the best in the game is a bad thing. Are people seriously worried about AB taking targets away from Zay Jones?

I think they are more concerned with him being a me first, self centered diva and how that can affect a young team.
