    Yeah he was real bad, for a guy who talked a lot he sucked at it, guess he was only a good con man.

     

     

     

     

    Agree but he still has another 2 years getting paid money from Pegs, approx $5Mil per year...

     

    He doesn’t deserve it..

  2. Whether he makes it or not, can we once and for all attribute this pick to Rex?

    Friday morning during his introductory press conference, Lawson was asked about what his first impressions of the Bills organization were. Excitedly, he described how much he wanted to join the squad because of Rex Ryan.

    “I knew Buffalo was sitting there at 19 and I was like, ‘Please come get me Rex,’” he said. “And when I got that call from New York, I knew I was coming to Buffalo and it’s just been a great city. I experienced a lot this morning. I’ve seen the city and places and things like that.”

    He also shared the story of when he first met Ryan while he was a freshman at Clemson. He and Ryan’s son were moving into their dorms, and shared a pre-destined moment with the head coach.

    “I first met Rex Ryan was my freshman year at Clemson. Me and Seth were both moving into the freshman dorms and he was just talking about how he had two first-round picks that attended Hargrave and he said maybe that can be you one day and that was the first thing that he said to me when I first met Rex

  3. Groy for mine....

     

    He is off contract end of this year and has the opportunity to make the position his own for the next few years and earn himself a lot more dollars in the process...

     

    Still thinking that they need to find another starting OL piece before the season starts... hope someone decent shakes out somewhere...

    I'm not explaining anything to you.

     

    Surf the threads. You'll see plenty.

     

    How did you vote? Oh, wait - What the hell are you still doing on this thread you hate so much? 

     

    Me?

     

    I'm on the JA train.

     

    80 percent in favour of JA...

     

    I’m not seeing the hate...

    ...so back to Neal....what do you think Augie?...potential for another 5th round find?.....

     

    I recall that after Beane got here he signed a lot of guys to the Scouting department that we were told were up and comers several  of whom were taking sideways moves to come to Buffalo ( no doubt though Pegula’s money was a factor  as well)..

     

    This is where those guys can earn their keep..finding quality players on Day 3 of the draft...

     

    Must admit that Neal wasn’t on my radar prior to the draft but have since become optimistic about him..

     

    Ditto Teller who was on my radar and I loved in the 5th..Probably asking a bit much to expect a lot from him this year though... maybe one to break through in 2019..

    ...perhaps Chapter 2 of his deal making IMO.....in the market to sign a vet QB....I believe the blown Cleveland deal had McCarron valued at a 2nd or 3rd.....so the FA feeding frenzy begins and ends yet McBeane doesn't make a move, calmly waiting for agents to come calling for their unemployed clients.....and he snags McCarron on HIS terms.....or even Chapter 3 to move up draft time to 12 and then again to 7 to select (hopefully) the franchise QB (Allen) without surrendering much draft capital......of course, the jury is out on BOTH, but I would say both deals were artful so far.......

     

    And trading Tyrod for Pick 65 before his bonus was due when a lot of experts here were adamant they should just cut him as no one would even offer a 7th..
