    Sadly BillsFanatics (or whatever their name was) is SUPER unreliable, IB level. They are known for making bold claims that don't actually happen. Fingers crossed though!

     

     

    BillsFanatics latches on to ANY Twitter Bills rumor and relays it as fact. When it falls through they blame whoever started the rumor.

     

    This Ogbah thing is a prime example. The rumor was posted on the Instagram page stories section of @thefbanalyst. Because they have 76,000 followers - that's good enough for BF to claim:

    And not that there's a rumor by a single account without a checkmark and less than 100k followers....

  2. I don't know if it's fair to say the guy was embarrassed. It sounds more to me like a guy who gets hammered by fans of other teams on a regular basis and is giving the ole' "yeah, yeah - I get it, whatever". 

     

    I understand that feeling completely. You're not embarrassed. You just know it's a losing battle trying to debate Bills with ignorant bandwagon fans of winning teams. So you just get programmed to cut them off before they start in because you just don't wanna listen to it from someone else.

    noted for draft day reflecting  : ) and badgering you perhaps ...

     

    I'm not opposed to Buffalo drafting him. I'm just opposed to it happening at 9.

     

    If they take him following a trade down to around the 20-30 range or if they traded up from the 2nd - okay.

  4. - He's not even close to one of the top 9 talents in this draft.

     

    - He might not even be the best TE.

     

    - He was pretty pedestrian at the Combine.

     

    - He's just as raw of a prospect as DK Metcalf without the impressive measurables (Redshirt Sophomore).

     

    - Tight End is like Running Back. A top 10 pick used there would have to be a freakish talent.

  5. If this were the case, you'd never see the Patriots trading down. Which we often do - even after they win a Super Bowl with the roster they have.

     

    The best teams often cut good players. Sometimes even draft picks or free agents from that very year. And it's a good thing. It means they had good competition/depth across the board and were able to weed out the very best fits for their team.

     

    This is a luxury we're not used to around here. As a matter of fact, we're generally one of the teams going after the good cut players. So the idea of having an abundance of players seems wasteful to some. But if we were to have too many free agents and Draft Picks - that's a very good thing come Training Camp.

     

    So, no, it's never off the table. Especially when you consider we may want to pick up picks in later years. Or may need to recoup a pick/picks that may be traded away for a player in the coming weeks.
