He'll obviously get more than them...but $15M is too much.

To me, Babich has to be better at DC. Maybe he didn't have the players last year, so this year there can be no excuses.

I disagree . I don't think it was planned at all. Beane was really yanked at the WGR criticism and the accusation that he doesn't value WRs. He defended drafting defense because that is the side of the ball that has failed miserably in the playoffs. Plus the value in this draft was clearly on the defensive side of the ball. I think the reason they led with the media criticism in the Embedded piece was that the National media overwhelmingly agreed with Beane and felt the push back against WGR was justified. They showed the ESPN, NFL, et al takes. It was only members of the local media that were critical of Beane. Plus, since the piece dealt with the draft, it was the perfect lead in.

Totally agree. They got the players they wanted, and were in lock step, especially with the first 5 picks. Even when they pivoted to offense, they got good value.

Beane: "After taking so many defensive players, I was worried Joe Brady was going to put my car on blocks."

Loved his combine interview.

Very obvious, McD really wanted Hairston! "We gotta get this guy." And he pointed out teams that needed a corner picking before Buffalo.

Watching as we speak. I always love draft insights.

I remember the first time I saw Ruth Buzzi. She was in a "magic" act with comedian, Dom Deluise. He played the magician, Dominic the Great, and she was his assistant Shagugula. I keep remembering Dom saying "No applause please. Save until the end." And Ruth just smiled with this goofy grin. It was laugh out loud funny! Next time I saw her was on Laugh In, which we watched as a family every week.

It's not just you. Especially the Brown.

Beane said on OBL that he and Moore had conversations prior to the draft and decided to "stick a pin in it" until after the draft to garner interest depending on what the Bills did (sign a WR, what round, etc). Since Beane did not have an available WR that he valued where he was drafting, above other players, he waited until round 7. Based on that, the mutual interest was there post draft. That's why Moore was in the building right after the draft.

Thank you, Gonzo. To many dates are being thrown around. Didn't it used to be June 1 and not the day after the draft?

If Rasul Douglas or Cooper signs, they may get us back to zero.

Someone on X posted this. Not sure about his source.

"Crash Out" is mild compared to some takes I've seen posted. Buffalo Rumblings headline included "expletive-laden."
