Are sports’ drafts fair to the players?
Captain Caveman replied to Tipster19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Lots of other people have said it, but it's a choice the players have if they want to play pro sports. I don't see it as any different than the fact that if you want to be a working actor, you probably have to move to LA (or maybe NY.) There are lotos of other fields in this country where you may have to relocate based on your job if you want to keep your job (thinking in energy production, and I'm sure there are many others.) -
Best player for immediate upgrade to our starting lineup.
Captain Caveman replied to gjv's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That's how much he specifically gains, but how much do others in the offense benefit from his presence? As someone else mentioned, if other teams have to account for a guy like him who could go the distance n any given play, how much does that help the rest of the offense (and passing game in particular.) -
Ones who were/are Sopranos series(HBO) fans......
Captain Caveman replied to Patrick Duffy's topic in Off the Wall
Tony gets shot. It's pretty clear, I thought the ending was fitting and it's never bothered me. He didn't see it coming, and the series was largely from his perspective, so neither did we. Chase has talked about this more recently and I think he's also been pretty clear about what happened (although not sure if he's ever come out and said it directly.) Seinfeld ending was bad, but somehow fitting? -
Bojo to Rams (update - traded to Packers)
Captain Caveman replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I assume this happened because we are making a conscious decision to never punt again, since punting is for losers. -
How do you figure? Typically this year's first is worth 2 future first rounders (or a 2nd this year and next year's 1st.) Obviously depends on specifics and circumstances (and could be very different this year) but I don't think it's out of sorts to think that if there is a player a team really wants at 30 that they would trade us next year's first outright.

I saw something this past week (maybe in the Athletic or Defector?) about how just by numbers, there are a lot fewer players who have declared for the draft this year, and so many players are taking advantage of the extra year of eligibility due to Covid, so there is some math / data that backs that this will be the weakest draft class in a while. Still, if 3 QBs end up being Pro Bowl type players, especially if Kyle Pitts and a RB or 2 become perennial all stars, I'm not sure it will be perceived as a weak draft in the future. But I think depth wise, it's widely regarded as not a deep draft (and not a great year to be picking 30th probably.) I do wonder if the Bills don't see anyone they love at 30 if they would trade it away for a 1st next year.

Allen had 21 dropped interceptions last year
Captain Caveman replied to BillsMafi$'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That's why DBs are DBs and not WRs, right? -
Getting my 1st Covid vaccination Tuesday
Captain Caveman replied to Chandler#81's topic in Off the Wall
Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere or if it's worth its own thread, but I encourage everyone to watch Dr. Fauci's conversation with Marshawn. -
SI: The Unrivaled Arrival of Trevor Lawrence
Captain Caveman replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'd be willing to bet we'll open at Kansas City, maybe Monday night, or even the Thursday opener? -
Getting my 1st Covid vaccination Tuesday

Got my first jab a week ago today (Moderna), no side effects from the first other than a sore arm. -
How can the bills afford Diggs and Allen
Captain Caveman replied to dbfla10's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
In effect increasing his guaranteed $ and getting him some more $ this year. I know it's a not a major re-working, but it is a reworking that benefitted both sides. -
How can the bills afford Diggs and Allen
Captain Caveman replied to dbfla10's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Josh will count for similar until after his 4th or fifth year just like Mahomes did. So we've got a year or two to really worry about it. Diggs has earned a raise, but he just had his contract redone THIS year, so my guess if he gets his redone it's not going to be at that 25 million dollar level (I'm not saying he's not worth it.) -
Daboll apologized to Beasley, Diggs after loss
