This draft is depressing as even Shaq is on the bubble. I know Polian would commonly say if you're hitting on 60% or better you're in the ballpark of a very good GM. He said his lifetime as well as Ron Wolf, both in the HOF were at57-60%. Gil Brandt going in this year said the same thing. I have real hope though and confidence with this administration. I don't blame the Pegulas for making the mistake on Ryan and Whaley as they were new owners, but in my opinion, they did it right on the second round.

Love it Old Time

That made me laugh. What was he thinking with a record like his in pretty much every place has been. He and Wrex are buffoons.

The OP makes a good point and another example is emerging in Foster.

I believe Beane will eventually become the most significant GM since Butler. Butler’s only downfall is he didn’t manage the cap well. He did have a great eye for talent. That late 90’s defense was probably the best I can remember.

Agreed as so many of the people who actually play are alternates.

Agreed on Milano. At $710,000 he is a steal.

Exactly. It’s not that I don’t respect women who don’t like football, but it’s about as you said her trying to change you.

I was thinking the same after I did the math on offense vs. defense.

You guys are cold. Just kidding, but if she’s a good person, funny and interesting, I would overlook it, and make a joke of it. Better to fake being a real football fan than on date 1 say “I have no interest in sports”.

The Chargers have talent, but stupid for any player to make a SB prediction.

I understand the author, but it’s not exactly a new theme about how weak is the rest of the AFCE after the Pats.

I was thinking the same thing, but it’s the dead time for five weeks so it’s a struggle to have any unique topics. I do hope Williams can be a reclamation project, but for the purposes of the question, Brown and Beasley will excel. Beasley will get open underneath and with an improved line, Allen will take a step forward hitting him over the middle. He also has now two deep threats in Brown and Foster, but Brown has a lot more experience. Should be a fun season.

Inigo, I love the Princess Bride references so keep them coming, but regarding the question, I’m going with the over. Star will eat up the middle for the run and Oliver will penetrate with Hughes as you mentioned getting him to 10 is my guess.

GB, that’s a nice story and thank you for sharing, but sad for you regarding you’re grandfather. I pray every week at church it doesn’t happen to my Dad who turns 89 this August. He’s still as sharp as a tack and golfs three times a week. Happy Fathers Day bud!

At least they had the first three right, and am hoping we see in a couple of years JA keep climbing up the ranks.

Well said. Working in the medical field and at one time in Neurology, it is painful to see what happens to the family. Some really nice stories I heard before going to a meeting on NFLR, from former players.

I’m very happy with our organization. If someone gives more competition against the evil empire, great. How nice would it be watching the Patsies only go 3-3 in their division moving forward and have to fight for 10 wins.

This is a big so what. Nothing against the OP, just McD was I guess trying to be funny, and working on getting closer with his WR Corp. the posts were funny and I could care less about the 80’s Redskins. Lots of teams reinvent nicknames over the years. Anyway, OP, thanks for sharing as you were trying to help.

Guys, don’t forget every NFL team turns over 1/3 of their roster every year. That’s not me saying it, but experts on NFR and other sources. I agree there is a lot of change and the overhaul in the O Line May take the first three weeks into the regular season, but the obvious I have concerns are always injury. I believe in our coaches and the defense is somewhat stable. Also the offensive and defensive scheme is similar to last year which allows Allen to play faster and the game slow down for him. im in the glass half full camp.

I understand people have different opinions about these players. Personally, when playing Tasker was rude as hell to my sister who arranged a signing event at Wegmans and she is used to being around big names as she is high up at Wegmans, but my interactions with him were very cordial and friendly. As far as Andre, he held the door for me going into the Big Tree when I attempted to do the same for him when he and his wife were still dating and he had stopped and had a nice 5 minute conversation with me when he could have blown me off. That same night Thurmond who comes across like a nice guy was rude as hell. Maybe he was in a bad mood, or hurting from the previous game. Then in 2011 we had a National Sales Meeting in Beverly Hills (Medical Device Industry), and our team building exercise was a chili cook off from each of the Regions. It was fun, and he was the guest judge. He was with the VP’s and my Director brought me up to him and said “this is the biggest Bills fan in the Company”. We spoke for 10 minutes, and of course talked Bills. He was very down to earth, and then later he had to judge our chili (we lost -shocker with the knuckleheads I worked with at the time). Anyway, a friend said, why don’t you call you’re sons and see if Andre could chat with them. He. Thought was a great idea and b/c it was 9pm EST they were getting ready for bed. He spent 15 minutes talking football with Ian and Ryan (my sons and sent them an autographed pic of him). He made two little boys very happy that night. i realize everyone has a different reactions to the old players, but he went out of his way for my sons and people were pulling him to other places, but he told them to wait so in my eyes, he is a good person. I don’t doubt anyone else’s interactions, as I have the same feelings about a past Buc in Warren Sapp. He is by far the biggest jerk and ass I’ve ever met, and has treated so many people I am close to including my wife when his first baby was born so I understand. I know he’s not a Bill, but some players are pretentious with fans.

Guys- It’s a nice pic from an old team who brought a lot of joy to us back in the day. I’m happy for Bruce getting a football life episode. There is nothing around the neck of the new guys. They will build their own memories. lets get away from the negativity and attacks as a nice piece on Bruce’s career. I’m sure it will be done well. I wish Andre was there, but he does spend a lot of time in San Diego, so maybe just not in the cards. He always carried himself well to me even personally in the handful of times we spoke. Happy for Bruce and what happened years ago is just that, years ago.

That was Ralph mandating the switch. That came out years later.

Are you forgetting Tom Donohoe, Marv Levy as the GM, Ralph for his choices for hires ( yes I love Ll the good he did here, but he is culpable for this drought as well ), and Greg Williams? Then we could also add Chan as well, but he was given a severely limited roster.

James Hardy. Most receptions in Hoosier history ended up in stories as illiterate, and embarrassingly flopped with the Bills over 3 games and 7 more in Baltimore. Found dead in a river by his home, mostly speculated as a suicide, but nothing official. Bad pick, but sad story. Just b/c you don’t make it in the NFL doesn’t mean you end you’re life. The only loser here from a football stance is another bad decision in the draft without vetting the talent properly.
