Considering many handguns and rifles are also semi-automatics, I don’t think the specific action or type is the real problem. The problem is what is part of the background check. The ability to keep them away from the mentally unstable is the real issue.

I wasn’t surprised or hated any cuts… but if it was me making the fringe roster decisions I would have probably kept Gore Jr. over the dedicated full back. Would have also cut Codrigton in favor of keeping someone with more upside on their core position that could do maybe 85% of the job at returns (and I don’t know who that would be, maybe Shenault or Hamler)

I agree that we could use a dominant DT, but I don’t think GB was looking to part with Clark just to trade him. I think they knew the Cowboys would want a D line player back in addition to picks and he had value. Similar to if the Bills made a move to ship off Oliver with picks. Not looking to active ship off that player, just trying to put an attractive package together.

Longer term roster management is the reason I’m glad Bean wasn’t all in on this trade. Two 1st rounds and a pretty good defensive linemen would be completely reasonable to give up for Parsons. The problem is managing the rest of the roster against that cap hit along side our franchise QB and the core other players were committed to. It would be a very win it this year move (which might have worked out) but could be big a handcuff for the next 5-6 years of prime Josh Allen.

Really? I thought I was on a Buffalo Bills football board that has a separate section for political related topics that keeps the random crap off the main page.

How does pointing out the volume of John Deere’s layoffs in 2024 have anything to do with diving into political opinions?

John Deere has laid off thousands of workers over the past few years. The 1,600 in 2024 wasn’t because of Trump tariffs. It’s business. https://iowastartingline.com/2024/12/12/iowans-laid-off-john-deere-2024/#:~:text=This year alone—not counting,those being laid off Jan.

All I know is I was handed down a free 1987 Deere lawn tractor in 2018. It was almost as old as me and still ran great. It was definitely too small for my property and started giving me trouble a few years later, but the longevity caused some brand loyalty. It was time for something new in 2022. I cross shopped Kubota and a few others. With all the inventory shortages of that time, Deere was the only one with plenty of inventory on hand so I stuck with it.

It’s impossible for these people not to look at everything through a politically divisive lens. To them everything is about a pro or con Trump argument. Something as simple as a financial forward looking statement from a public corporation has to come back to a Trump cause or effect issue. By the way, Deere has ran into some fairly substantial trouble with recalls on their more residential focused products. A lot of zero turns and lawn tractors with Kawasaki engines were recalled for electrical issues causing spontaneous combustion. I have a lawn tractor with a Kawasaki that wasn’t on the recall list but I still worry. I heard of some reports on not recall models catching fire, and it’s a bit concerning.

Ah, yes. We’re never going to snag a top tier anything when we are always picking around 30.

To be fair, Bean does pretty good with the late round picks, finding quite a few diamonds in the rough. It’s the early round premium picks he normally wastes.

And that is how the Olympic flag football team is selected.

Snitches get stitches.

Next they’ll bring in Josh Norman. We do play Henry week 1. We need someone he can stiff arm 20 feet across the field.

C'mon it's 4:30 already. I thought Bean would have CC'd TSW the final roster as it went to the league office.

Yeah but Shaq Lawson was the only one in there.

Was this the guy that spotted him?

Can we trade them Bass and just roll with Ray Davis?

Sometimes, but by then it’s normally up to a civil court judge.

Snitches get stitches.

I agree with that, I just hope he learned how to run a championship defense come playoffs in year 9.

They should post a printed out list of the final 53 and hang it outside of Bean’s office like posting college exam results back in the day. Players have to come by in the morning to see if they made the cut.

Really wish the Bills would have taken a shot with Milton in last year’s draft. He’s been looking pretty good so far in this Cowboys game.

They’ll probably have John Brown and Beasley back by the end of the week too.
