  1. Not up on college like some of you guys are but after looking at their list of NFL QBs I give a solid NO. That is one bad list.
  2. Ouch. I forgot about that. Just looked it up and the Bears got a 2, 3, 5, 5, 6 in next years draft. Brutal if Fields ends up a bust.
  3. Hearing what some of the college football guys have said here there won't be enough QBs to go around and they are not that good. Trubisky could be a reasonable fallback to one of these needy teams. At least I hope so.
  4. How far can the Eagles fall? Remember when people were saying how can they sign all these great players. Well that didn't last long at all.
  5. It's a good thing the Raiders lost to the Bears a couple of weeks ago. They got a bye next week then a tune-up game against the Giants before playing the Chiefs in LV.
  6. Brady with his 600 TD pass. Bucs/Bears game is about over at the end of the 1st.
  7. When will fans and the "media" get this simple point. Last Sunday after the Chargers game Jackson was a god. 7 days later look at what happened. This is why every Bills game I say, "just win.". JUST WIN PERIOD
  8. Bengals embarrassing Ravens! This game is over!
  9. Mahomes bent like a pretzel.
  10. For the record. Just read the rules of the "exempt" list. A certain QB is not yet on the list but could be at any given time. Here’s the official definition via the NFL Player Personnel Policy Manual: The Exempt List is a special player status available to clubs only in unusual circumstances. The List includes those players who have been declared by the Commissioner to be temporarily exempt from counting within the Active List limit. Only the Commissioner has the authority to place a player on the Exempt List; clubs have no such authority, and no exemption, regardless of circumstances, is automatic. The Commissioner also has the authority to determine in advance whether a player’s time on the Exempt List will be finite or will continue until the Commissioner deems the exemption should be lifted and the player returned to the Active List. It seems to me that this is a NFL/NFLPA agreement. It's up to the commissioner to determine player status. It would have to go through the court system to determine whether a "commissioner" can put a player on the list. It seems to me no matter what fans/media say about all of this ultimately it comes down to Roger Goodell to decide Watson NFL fate.
  11. I don't think anyone does even the commissioner. It's not spelled out anywhere. Being the commissioner is the only person who can assign a player to the list I would imagine he is the only one who can rule on a trade.
  12. My friend John caught an extra point. That football was the pride of the neighborhood playing football at Dingens Park.
  13. I'm not chill yet but I'm getting there.
  14. Only if Henry starts selling Christmas trees in front of the stadium.
  15. LOL I know. That is why i said it's stupid. They are counting the other picks in the trade that got the 2nd rounder in the Sammy trade. It's stupid. While they are at it why not add the 2,3 or more (LOL) 1st rounders we used to draft Watkins!
  16. Yes. You got to scroll down to the 2nd we got for Sammy. Pick was in the 50s I think.
  17. https://www.prosportstransactions.com/football/DraftTrades/Years/2018.htm FWIW this is where I look for old trades. Traded • 2018 first round pick (#12-Vita Vea) • 2018 sixth round pick (#187-Ray-Ray McCloud) to Bills for • Cordy Glenn • 2018 first round pick (#21-Billy Price) • 2018 fifth round pick (#158-Andrew Brown) on 2018-03-14
  18. That is kind of what I'm saying. Bills used 2 more picks bundled with the Cordy Glenn trade and one other pick to get the Watkins pick. What isn't said is all the picks and E.J. Gaines in return. It seems a little skewed in the way they talk about it.
  19. It seems to me that is true for the Bills total cost to get Josh. But the 2 players have to Cordy Glenn and Sammy Watkins. If that is what they are doing then the return to Buffalo would be Josh Allen PLUS all the residuals in the Cordy, Watkins and the Tampa trades. Right?
  20. He is over 250 pounds so yes he is a bit of a tweener. He can be called up from the PS for 2 weeks. That could be enough to get Knox back after the bye. Warring could get a one week call up if necessary. I don't think another TE from outside will be coming if Knox's recovery is looking good before the Miami game.
  21. I hear you BUT I have to say that when Teller was drafted Juan Castillo was the OL coach. We don't know what he did with the rookie and it's hard to blame Bobby Johnson for missing his talent when he had a lot of work to do when he came to the Bills in 2019. I don't think that this one "miss" is endemic of a negative condition of the Bills OL evaluations. The OL needs work no doubt but it is way ahead of what is was in 2017-2018. I see more changes coming for the OL next year.
  22. It also seems to me that the stadium in the 1st ward could anchor the "playground" area of Buffalo and be an option to the true downtown area. Stadium, Auditorium, Casino, Riverworks, the Buffalo River and Canalside not too far away. The triangle area of South Park, Louisiana and Ohio St is just begging for a redevelopment centered on a "fun zone" for Buffalo. IMO. https://www.google.com/maps/@42.8718878,-78.8683064,16.25z
  23. Bronco's winning the first 3 games against bad teams was almost cruel to the fans out here in Colorado!
  24. It was a lengthwise crack in the 4th Metacarpal. We also made the K-wires in the Monument, CO plant I worked most of my life in. No pain in the hand but I broke a large number of ribs (car accident) that still gives me some pain 20+ years later.
