UPDATE: the autopsy for former Bills CB Vontae Davis was just released:

Bills' great Joe Ferguson was still playing at age 40. He had an 18-year career. And this back in the 70's and 80's, mind you, when a QB got beat up. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/F/FergJo00.htm

Had to look this up. For those like me who didn't know, "TBC" means "to be confirmed" or, in American English, we would say "TBD". Also, thanks to you and mannc for enlightening me.

Will Campbell, OT, is the fourth-highest rated player in the draft and a position of extreme need for New England: https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/prospect-rankings/offensive-tackles/

'Tis true. They said on their forum his trade value is now either a box of Little Debbie's or a box of used condoms [On a more serious note, they're also bemoaning the fact when they are forced to release him next year thru won't get a comp pick.]

Charles Romes or Mario Clark.

I never understood why assists in the NHL count as one point, but not in the NBA..

Agreed. He is such an icon in Japan, the character in the Street Fighter, Mike Bison, a vicious and menacing boxer who had killed a fighter in the ring, was named after him. He was called "Balrog" in subsequent editions to avoid liability concerns, and the name "M. Bison" was given to another character.

Nice...I see now. I like the Yankees too. Someone posted a poll here a few weeks ago where you couldn't reply giving three options: a. born in WNY and still live there b. grew up in WNY and moved out c. grew up elsewhere and moved to WNY You would be in a fourth option: neither grew up in nor moved to WNY.

Why not a Sabres fan?? It has to be the Sabres if you like the Bills, right? I never understood this. Someone else here said he was a fan of the Bruins, our most hated rival fan. What?

Or Cy Young's 749 complete games (the current active leader, Justin Verlander, has just 26)m https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/34872477/ranking-most-unbreakable-records-sports-nfl-nba-nhl-mlb .

And he was criticized for it by some because there were some games where he needed rest or was injured, but selfishly continued playing.

George Blanda's 26 seasons? Tom Brady's seven SB wins?

The title should be tweaked a little to include "hot take" or "draft day prediction" or the like so someone doesn't think the OP has inside information and this has really happened (will happen).

True. The trade occurred during the draft after the Giants picked Phillip Rivers fourth. In return for Manning, the Chargers got River, plus a third in that draft (2004) and a first and fifth in 2005. I believe that third-round pick was on the same day (Saturday) back then as the first since the draft was over the weekend on two days. The only difference between the above scenario and the one in the OP's post is that Rivers and Manning were both pre-vetted with physicals during the combine and maybe also at private workouts, whereas current NFL players traded on draft day wouldn't have had a physical with the new team before a trade for a current draft pick, unless the pick was for a later day in the draft possibly.

I remember that trade! It dramatically changed the trajectory of the Bills, for the better. But it was Halloween in 1987, not on draft day. We also traded away a second-round pick too: https://www.profootballhof.com/football-history/trick-or-trade/

The April Fool's Day pranks can happen all month, or even early. This is a hoax by The Athletic.

People: you do realize what day this is, right???

Good research! Those choices need to be added, but probably too late now.

You can't be suspended by the NFL for something that happened pre-NFL.

Thanks, and edited! HappyDay's can't do that!! 🤣

"17 - Bengals - HappyDays - Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona 18 - Seahawks - Logic - Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona" One of three things happened: 1. Logic drafted the same player by accident. 2. Virgil made a mistake 3. HappyDays took back his pick and drafted someone else and Virgil did not update. Too lazy to check back to find out. EDIT: Ok, it was HappyDay's fault, lol! 😀

How's this?

Rather have football on than NBA.
