K-9

OK, I’ll bite; what team(s) don’t like ball control?

Yes, if only we could use our QB to be the best at the lowest percentage play in football, perhaps in all of sports.

I think the larger point is who gets the better player with the exchanged draft picks; the pick we got from KC or the pick they got from us. But your mileage may vary and that’s perfectly ok.

And if DeWayne Carter, drafted with the 3rd round pick obtained from KC, turns out to be a better player than Jaden Hicks, will the media shut up then?

I don’t put any stock in that rumor. Jerry Jones loved Worthy from Texas so much, he passed on him at 24 and traded down to 29, where once again, he loved him so much he didn’t want to move up one lousy spot in the draft to get him. KC was getting Worthy at 32, regardless, and if the Bills had traded down with anyone else at 28 nobody would give a crap and this absurd narrative never would have taken hold.

Absofrickenoutely! There is the remotest possibility that the 49ers may have, but Worthy is NOT the type of receiver Shanahan likes. KC was getting him, regardless, and it was good to extract their 3rd rounder in the process.

It’s about building a rapport and and working on timing.

Drafted to line up against the skinny track star when we play KC. Looking forward to it.

We have four picks in this round and I’m looking forward to more heads exploding. I hope it two more safeties and two more RBs!

I’m surprised he’s still on the board.

If that is serviceable, especially with a QB like Mahomes, then I’d hate to see non- serviceable with a crappy QB.

Beane said he didn’t have 28 first round grades so I nave no problem with him sticking to his board and trading out of the 1st round. Yeah, it sucks that it was KC, but as others have said, they would have taken Worthy, anyway. If it were anyone BUT the Chiefs, I doubt too many would be upset today, except the children on WGR.

Who was the draft pundit who said we would trade back with Carolina and then take McConkey at 33? If Beane was speaking truth when he said he didn’t have first round grades on 28 players and all the players he did have first round grades on were gone, then he’s gonna find some value on days two and three. I have a hunch he’s gonna acquire a third pick in the 2nd round as well. While Worthy has boom or bust written all over him and I’m glad we didn’t take him, it just sucks to make that deal with KC.

Told ya.

Beane might trade back further still.

Latu is gonna be a great player in this league. Was hoping we’d get him if not one of the top receivers.

Predictable Harbaugh pick.

I no longer want Malik Nabers simply because of his taste in neckwear bling.

I agree that the demolition clause is absurd, but it’s in there none the less. Same with the clause pertaining to Erie county being the only venue allowed for adjudication. At the very least, it’s a speed bump that will cost potential litigants time and money to appeal if it ever comes to that. Like I said earlier, nothing is ever ironclad, but the roadblocks have to be navigated. My memory of past lawsuits regarding NFL team relocations may be a bit foggy, but if I recall, most of them reached settlement agreements before the courts decided one way or the other (Colts, Browns, Rams). Oakland is the only one I recall that was decided by the courts and, ironically, they weren’t seeking to prevent the move itself, they only wanted monetary compensation. Personally, I think their case was weak as they cited antitrust violations by the NFL and the Raiders. Imo, it had little chance given some of the antitrust exemptions the league enjoys.

Is Bradbury commenting only on the dollars involved and the fact that they start to decline after year 15? I ask because the cost of demolishing the stadium also needs to be factored and added to that dollar value. But yeah, there’s no such thing as ironclad; only varying degrees of difficulty.

There were two stipulations that I found interesting: 1.) Any lawsuit brought relating to relocation must be adjudicated in Erie County. I know I wouldn’t want to be the judge that found in favor of relocation. 2.) Any owner, the Pegulas or somebody else, must also pay for the cost of the demolition of the stadium. Not exactly a low cost exercise. But you’re right in that ultimately money talks.

Apparently, it’s not just a question of paying back the money as there are other stipulations. I’ll get around to reading the entire relocation clause eventually, but this article in the news a few weeks ago is a good outline. https://buffalonews.com/sports/bills/language-in-bills-stadium-deal-makes-relocation-unlikely-for-30-years-but-not-impossible/article_89ba2bec-ce4f-11ed-9c9b-976c2e6b1613.html

Well, the lease for the new stadium ties them here for 30 years. So there’s that. But I haven’t read the “out” clause if there is one, so perhaps they can break it earlier.

Awesome video, but I wish them luck convincing the taxpayers to foot half of the $4.6b cost. And we thought $850m was too much? Pocket change compared to $2.3b in public funding.
