I think at the time a lot of people agreed that Jackson was a bit of a reach. Maybe more than a bit. I was glad to hear his name called when Miami picked.

Thanks for sharing. That info is helpful. I have a scheduled checkup with my doc this afternoon and part of it was presumably the second shingles vax since it's been four months. One of my questions to him was going to be about re-scheduling/postponing that one since since I had Pfizer 1.0 on 3/31 and should be hearing about Pfizer 2.0 next Wednesday. I did not time that well at all. Like you, I'm more worried about the reaction to my next shingles shot. Hopefully, it turns out to be nothing. Good luck to you on Monday and with that lingering arm pain.

That's what I did, as well. I had originally selected Terrace Marshall but he wasn't going to sniff the finish line and then was removed. I selected Ossai as the 'anti-Etienne' but I threw up a little in my mouth afterwards.

Too bad he couldn't take Fred and Jeff Coupon with him...

I agree. My comment was more an observation that people seem to be having a more adverse reaction to the second dose than to the first, not that said reaction was specific to women. She just happened to have talked to women. Sorry if that was ambiguous.

My wife has talked with several people she knows (women) and all have said that the second dose was much worse than the first and they felt 'flu-like' for 24-36 hours. I know that is a very small sample size and I'm not sure which vaccine(s) they received. I received my first shot on March 31st (Pfizer) and had no side effects other than a sore arm for a little less than a day. When I got my first shingles shot, my damn arm was sore for a week. The worst I have ever had from a flu shot was a day or two. I'm supposed to be receiving an e-mail on April 21st for my second Pfizer dose. My wife and sons are registered but have heard nothing so far.

Honestly, if this 'Final Four' is there at 30 in the actual NFL draft, I hope that somebody is willing to come up for one of them at the cost of a slight trade back into the 2nd Round by the Bills. Pick up capital in the 2nd and/or 3rd Round this year to either add the flexibility to move around/target specific players of need this year or flip for future draft assets. We'll see if Beane sticks to his perceived m.o. of 'never trading back' or if that is a false narrative now that the Bills are an established contender.

Your sexual conquests are of no concern to us. Do your job right next time or there will be consequences.

I'm with you. At this point, I think the Bills will go CB or Edge. If JOK somehow fell to 30 (not likely), I would pull the trigger but I don't want to give up draft capital to go get him with other needs. They need to pick up a CB, Edge, IDL (1T and arguably another 3T), and a WR, IMO. I am more and more convinced that if the right player is there, it will be a CB. Outside of re-signing Levi Wallace to a one-year deal, they did nothing to address that position. In fact, after this coming season, Tre White and Dane Jackson will be the only CBs under contract. It could be argued that not only do they need to upgrade CB2, they also need to add a slot CB(s).

He would be one of the few 'plug and play' players on defense who could make an immediate difference, outside of a CB2. They could keep him on the field as the 'Big Nickel'/'Buffalo Nickel'.

Can't find anybody to cover your shift at the snack bar?

You have to put the kibosh on that one, IMO. Teams don't trade UP to then put that pick on the block.

Good! Get him off the board before #30.

Move to Portland, Maine. Keep your board name, problem solved. 😉

I always thought it was five so I looked it up...not sure how old this is: "Individual teams may make no more than four appearances on NBC during the season. Only three teams may make as many as six prime time appearances (Sunday night, Monday night, Thursday night, and Saturday night combined).[22] The remaining teams may make a maximum of five prime time appearances. In addition, there are no restrictions amongst intra-division games being 'flexed'." https://americanfootballdatabase.fandom.com/wiki/NFL_on_television#:~:text=Individual teams may make no,of five prime time appearances. I want to believe that it will be five prime time games for the Bills but they never seem to be on more than three or four times, even when they are really good. That said, I will say four but will not be surprised if it's finally five given the 'Josh Allen Factor'.

Seems unlikely that he'll be scaring anyone (except Bronco fans), if they sign him and then move him to the offensive side of the ball. 😉 And, honestly, at this point in his career, Melvin Gordon isn't scaring many defenses either. That, said, I know what you were get at...Denver is building what looks to be a scary good offense at the skill positions.

Nobody said it was going to be easy. To think otherwise would just be obtuse as would it be to think that they have stayed the same or gotten worse. That said, the other teams in the AFCE are still chasing the Bills. Until these other teams answer their glaring questions, it's Buffalo's division to lose.

On the contrary. The pressure is on the other three teams in the AFC East to nail their picks. The Bills are now the hunted. Come get some...

They have said repeatedly that they want coaches who are also 'teachers'. That is evident as seen in the growth and development of many of the players on the roster.

This should resonate with @Chandler#81

I'm not sure if that is a 'dad joke' or if you are just throwing shade...

Yeah, he'll have to stay healthy to have a shot. As the cliche goes, the best ability is availability. That said, a low risk/high reward move by Beane.
