McShay- Bills trying to move up above 23 for Etienne
Figster replied to Reed83HOF's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
For the catching and blocking ability of Najee Harris IMO. Process kind of guy. 3 down work horse. Brings a champion mentality that was very instrumental in Saban/ Alabama accomplishments. (Imediate impact on the pass and run game IMO) -
New helmets approved, 3 helmets banned after testing
Figster replied to UConn James's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My main issue with a harder shelled exterior of a helmet vs softer exterior is that it offers no give on impact forcing the interior design of the helmet to counter the whiplash that could be reduced in the 1st place IMO. It would be interesting to see how a thick leathered exterior ( polished to reduce cohesion) with the existing interior desgn would test out IMO. Have a thinner hard plastic shell between interior and exterior. -

Talk about Mr dedicated to the Bills. You are looking at him right here. -
Its an understandable position to take. So while I think power may help make up for the lack of barn burner speed. Without the strong emphasis on the run game and big bodied and talented oline bama/Saban implements your assesment is a reason for concern. Thanks, always much appreciated to hear your thoughts. Especially on what would be a 1st round draft selection Buffalo needs to have an imediate impact from on a team eyeing its 1st championship.

True that, funny how all this comes to the surface when Watson decides he wants to be traded.

Bad rep didn't stop A B from becoming a Pat or Buc

What should define a "rookie" or "veteran" on TBD?

Looking back I was my brothers guinea pig on many occasions. I've took a tumble in the dryer, slid down laundry shoot (lucky we had cloths at the bottom) floated in a little plastic boat and over a falls at a creek near our house. Pissed on the ground near an electric fence where electric current was going through it. Just to name a few. I must have been dedicated to staying alive through it all. Older brothers, geesh -

We have a Cowboy fan that frequents our forum that definitely deserves honorable mention for her dedication to the Buffalo Bills. She's been to many Bills games. Met and got pictures/autographs with many Bills players. Even offered to help my niece and her hubby anyway she could at the Houston playoff game the season before last. Her dedication to the Bills probably out does many of us. She's got me beat. You go girl! @CowgirlsFan -

Back in the late 60's living in upstate New York ( West Valley ) My older brother and I would have contest sometimes to see who gets to keep our tv antenna on the roof turned in the right direction to pick up Bills games. In stormy weather the wind would turn the antenna enough to lose reception. Our contests were always filled with dares for the loser to make it more interesting and or painful. Once when our parents weren't home one of the dares was going outside in a snow storm wearing just our underwear with one lap around the house after turning the antenna. My brother got mad and locked me outside because the game wasn't coming in good. He figured it was my fault and I wasn't getting back in until the picture cleared. I ended up going to our neighbors up the street in just my underwear. We both got into allot of trouble. -
Well Newton did threaten to burn the house down with mom and dad in it. I'm just saying... Big brains go a little crazy sometimes

I understand the skepticism on trading up for Najee Harris. My most respected poster on this board when it comes to football is against it.( @Rochesterfan ) The Buffalo Bills would have to make a big change in how they view the importance of having an above average run game IMO. Not much doubt in my mind had Buffalo committed themselves to running the football Singletary would have had a more productive season. If Buffalo drafts Harris running the football will have to be more then just an afterthought.
