dollars 2 donuts

Yes, he was a steal at 28. However, the thing you have to ask yourself, Joe, is would he have been a better QB in a Bills uniform? i honestly believe if it had been reversed Kelly would have put up similar numbers in Miami, and probably would have played in the NFL longer than his 11 years both at the beginning and at the end. Sure as hell would have been in Miami in 83, 84 and 85.

For five picks I think he should even start in OTAs.

7.5 million and at the time I believe the richest contract in NFL history. i think that they had made OJ the richest contract, as well, in the 70s. $837,000 per year is sticking in my head.

Look on the bright side, if they end up going to the Pats I think we get a third round comp pick...probably a cousin.

Might as well be annoyed with them for a good reason.

Guys, is Tasker being demoted at CBS? Is he going to the sideline, yet with a higher crew with Gannon? Was it his choice?

The Green Bay Packers going back to the Lynn Dickey-James Lofton Era, plus Vince Lombardi is an uncle of mine. all the above is true except the uncle part.

I wish you would have been a little bit more expansive with this post. and yes, the preamble should have been longer, but at least you nailed the ethnicity thing. that sarcastically said, I must say the overall point wasn’t that bad. the best point: there are about 16 guys that can do this well.

It’s pre-pre-pre-draft week! Ah it’s so close I can almost taste it! TSW should be wrapping up its QB chatter in the next couple of days.

They win win that cancelled game last year and pull out the OT win with their QB throwing for 700 yards and UB likely goes to a bowl at 7-5. that said, fully expecting a bowl this year.

One thing, though, kdiggz that I forgot: who looks Kyle Williams in the eye and tells him that we are gutting the team and/or telling him he was traded to the Browns as it was the best offer?

Boy Looper, I don't know. His passing was nice, but he does seem to lock on to receivers. On the TD inside the 10 it almost looked like he could have dropped the snap as he was staring at his target before the play even started.

Well said. I definitely think we are better than the Dolphins. However, I also definitely think it could have been 1-1 with them if they have a healthy Tannehill.

If we can convince him to hang on to the ball all the way to the endzone we might have something.

Yeah, I agree with this, No. However, with that caveat that I don't believe AJ dooms us, we just need a lot of help in other areas. Honestly, guys, even though we are traditionally good against Tannehill are we 9-7 if he is healthy last season?

I know it may be stupid as it is so obvious but I am a big fan of this. Hell, even go to the other thread, the one that dealt with Mills/Nate when he is inside the Bills own 10 early in the game. Yes, the pocket collapses very quickly, but man just two steps up buys him the time and the follow-through to hit the WR (which I honestly believe he would have as his throws are generally good when he follows through and has time). This isn't for the purposes of propping up Petterman. It is just frustrating when subtle, 2-5 foot shifts in the pocket would "save" a pass play. More often than not it seems like lately there are only two options if you are still going to throw: stay IN the pocket or completely abandon it for open water to see what might pop up. The great RBs, like Shady, are so very good at that spatial awareness. I just hope our QBs will gain that feel for what's around them.

IF they do that then I believe for sure they are going for a QB of the future at 2.

How many times can they do this to this man? Vicious, brutal disease.

I've said this for awhile...granted I could be wrong, but given the money that was put into the renovations for New Era and the general cost of a new stadium I just don't think this organization starts breaking ground on a new stadium (wherever it may be) any earlier than 2021-22, with the plan of opening it for the 2024 season.

He would definitely not be the same player. He would have a new contract negotiated at the time of the trade which would give him fat stacks of cash which is part of the point of playing football. Not just necessarily being in a great system with great coaches where you are the back up cheering somebody else on. I am not saying he's worth it and I am not saying anything bad about the guy. However, it is just the reality of it. I mean what if the guy blows out his knee in spot duty this coming year? Someone once told me it is better to have that happen at 3 years, 60 million with 25 million guaranteed than on a 7.5 million dollar deal. ...or I read it in a book.

BB, I swear i was going to write THIS before I came across you post. Tremendous!!

The only thing is I have this feeling the Bills don't feel the same way. Additionally, I have an even worse feeling that the Browns are just not going to let go of that #4. Allen (if that is their guy), Barkley, Landry...I just don't see them passing it up. The Broncos will take Rosen at 5.

Well...I guess we're drafting a safety then!

I wouldn't believe it if my own mother came to me with the Top 15 of an NFL team's draft board. Considering she has been dead for 15 years would make me even more suspicious.

I am annoyed and tired of being so torn between 5 picks and getting the second best QB in the draft at 2, assuming the Gmen give it up. If if the distance between 1 and 2 at QB is much less than the distance between 2 and possibly the 4 th QB at 12...and they love the guy, then go get him if you can.
