  1. Byrd was leaving no matter what. He stated that he went to NO because of the "winning culture". Got tired of losing in B'Lo. He was a good player, but he will be easily replaced. No FS is worth what he got in NO.
  2. James Earl Jones.
  3. OK, so they added depth at OL, LB and CB. What could be wrong with that?
  4. Agreed. People have been crying for them to go after some OL in free agency and when they sign a former first rounder, those same people crap all over the move. For those people nothing the Bills ever do will be good enough.
  5. Charlie Casserly on NFL Network referring to Byrd. "no safety is worth $9 Million". Byrd is a good player, but NO overpaid, plain and simple. Glad that the Bills chose not to.
  6. NO overpaid for Byrd. Plain and simple. Glad the Bills chose not to.
  7. Does anyone really believe that Byrd is worth what he got from NO? Good riddance. I would have been pissed off had they given him 6 Years and 54 million. They will get at least two good players for that kind of money.
  8. Well you may be No Saint, but Byrd just might be. The only visit he has scheduled thus far is with NO and they don't appear to have the cap room to give him the kind of contract he is after. I get that he wants top dollar, but I think Buffalo made him a fair offer. No hard feelings toward Byrd or the FO on this one. They just don't value his services the same. He thinks he's worth more than they do and if he can get it, more power to him, but don't blame the FO.
  9. It's a start, lol.
  10. If you haven't tried this, it's a lot of fun and there is a new big board. We have discussed this before, but I tried it again with the new player rankings and came up with a pretty good draft. Traded down in each of the first three rounds and ended up with multiple picks in the second third and fourth rounds. Here's what I got. 16 ILB C.J. MOSLEY ALABAMA 41 S LAMARCUS JOYNER FLORIDA STATE 53 WR KELVIN BENJAMIN FLORIDA STATE 73 OT JOEL BITONIO NEVADA 87 G ANTHONY STEEN ALABAMA 105 DE DEMARCUS LAWRENCE BOISE STATE 117 CB BASHAUD BREELAND CLEMSON 120 WR BRANDON COLEMAN RUTGERS 137 DE ED STINSON ALABAMA 149 ILB MAX BULLOUGH MICHIGAN STATE 169 RB DEVONTA FREEMAN FLORIDA STATE 201 TE JOE DON DUNCAN DIXIE STATE
  11. It's a hockey thing. People in Toronto will never root for a Buffalo team, simply because they are from Buffalo. The hockey hatred carries over.
  12. I can't say I blame the FO on this one. They negotiated with his team on and off for two years and couldn't get it done. Time to move on. They made him a very fair offer and he refused it. He can be and will be replaced.
  13. Can't say I can complain about the Bills not doing enough to keep Byrd. Three years and $30 Mil for a FS is a fair offer. He obviously wants to leave, so there is not much the FO can do about that. Time to find a replacement and move on.
  14. Byrd is betting they will let him walk. Why would he not sign for $10M if he knows the tag is only $8.6? Tagging him makes sense rather than just letting him walk. Care to elaborate? What are the reasons?
  15. I absolutely love listening to Shannon Sharpe. His shows on Sirius with Bob Papa were classic. "Thath's what I'm talkin bout Papa. Now we're cookin' with Thturno!." Loved it. He was insightful and funny and the lisp made it that much better. Will be sorry to see him go.
  16. That doesn't look too bad. Most areas of need addressed and some good players in that draft. Good job Astro.
  17. Ummmm......NO!
  18. You're kidding right? Those two were the strengths of the offense last year. Fred was an absolute beast and C.J. had a solid season while playing hurt most of the season. Our running game is the least of our worries.
  19. I agree 100%. There is absolutely zero chance he gets fired this season. Just for the record, virtually all OC's have a QB coach, and a WR coach. And although Hostler's title is senior offensive assistant, he will also work with the WR corps.
  20. Just stop. The conspiracy theories are killing me.
  21. I like the Thursday night games, but I remember before they had them, there were late season games on Saturdays after college football regular season and before the bowls started. It kind of bridged the gap and added to the holiday season. I liked those late afternoon Saturday games in December.
  22. Agree with this. We need better Guards and they will be there later on. Get the best ILB or WR available in the first and second rounds, TE in the third G fourth, then BPA.
  23. Why is it that everyone keeps putting Marino in the top five and leaving out Kelly? I saw them head to head on many occasions and in each and every game Kelly outperformed Marino. He was clearly the better QB between the two. Marino has numbers because he played his entire career in the NFL where Kelly had that USFL stint. I think Marino was a great QB, but if you include him in the top 5, Kelly has at least got to be in the discussion.
  24. So the Beatles, Stones and Zeppelin didn't blatantly rip off American blues artists? C'mon man. Most music is influenced by some other music. I like Bruno Mars and thought he did an excellent job.
  25. I agree. Would love to have seen Kiko honored, but Richardson is also deserving. The good news is that hopefully we get to watch Kiko for many years to come. He was a great pick.
