Riley Ferguson would never say these things...

Gotta love his pinned tweet... O RLY?

This sounds plausible but it'd have to be someone who resides in the Buffalo area year round, right? Who would that be? And who's going to hop on a flight at short notice to benefit the team that's trading him away?

I knew something was missing from TBD these days... the obligatory Pegula Jet thread goes well with all the rampant speculation!

Agree that bad news will be worse for server health. I think Allen is the worst case scenario. That's closely followed by not trading up and watching a team like Miami trade up with the Bucs or Colts to get the fourth quarterback, even if it is Allen, and having the Bills pick Jackson, Rudolph, or Mead's favorite QB Riley Ferguson.

On his 2017 list, Peterman was #4 and Chad Kelly was #5. Enough said.

If Whaley is the GM, there is no way we have both 12 and 22. So I highly doubt we'd have the third overall pick in this scenario.

Agree. I think if the Browns take Darnold, #2 becomes more of a possibility. If Cleveland takes Allen or Mayfield, then I think the Giants will take Darnold at #2, with the Jets taking whoever is left at #3. I think they need to either trade with Denver or New York. Selecting any later makes it very risky that the fourth quarterback will be off the board. Select pick #2/NYG if you think they will do a 3-way trade.

We're almost 72 hours away... seems like the right time to do this. I'll do an accounting come Friday morning - for now, give your best guess and your rationale behind it.

I'm with you. I don't want another mobile quarterback after TT. My order of preference on the top quarterbacks is Mayfield, Darnold, Allen, Rudolph, Rosen, and then Jackson. Rosen's talent is solid but he just screams bust to me due to his inability to work with teammates.

Wow, a frontloaded away slate. 5 road games vs 2 home games to start.

Drinking a Black Raven pale ale right now while on call... so in a way, we're already doing so.

I think it goes one of two ways, assuming NYG don't take a QB at 2: CLE: Allen NYG: Chubb NYJ: Darnold CLE: Barkley BUF: Mayfield OR CLE: Darnold NYG: Chubb NYJ: Mayfield CLE: Barkley BUF: Allen

Agree with this. He is not a process guy. I hope they end up with Mayfield but I have a feeling it's going to be Allen if they can get to 5.

I dealt with this for the Chargers game. Let me be the first one to tell you that it sucks, a lot. If you want to buy tickets off of stubhub, you have to sign up for an account with the team, sometimes Ticketmaster. The site then recognizes you as a season ticket account holder. You then have to accept the ticket from the seller and download a mobile app to access your ticket. This actually assumes that the seller follows these steps correctly; my first seller did not and I had to call Stubhub to get another set of tickets due to non-delivery. It makes resale 1000x more difficult with no real benefit to the customer - just the team. It is odd that the NFL, which is concerned with declining attendance, would make it more difficult to fill the stadiums with paying customers.

Pretty sure that Dean (Astrobot here on TSW) is the guy that handles the Bills over there. Haven't seen him around here in awhile.

Personally, I don't like the hat, either.

This guy approves of the new One Bills Drive flavor of Kool-Aid!

https://www.benrus.com/ They make watches... so they make a good sponsor company for a clock if they would just pay up.

This is fairly accurate. They bought out Elysian here, and all of the existing beers have remained the same. The problem is that nothing new has come out of there for years that's actually good. They lost their head brewer who quit after the AB/InBev acquisition. Any brands bought by InBev are essentially "frozen in time" from the date they bought the microbrewer.

King doesn't seem like a process guy...

I think you have to say it was Flutie, but he had a terrific defense on that 1999 team. Fitz is nothing more than a younger version of Vinny Testaverde - a journeyman quarterback who wears out his welcome after losing a few too many games due to stupid mistakes. Taylor looked good because of McCoy. I'm surprised Orton isn't on the list. He was a quitter without passion but he was easily better than both Fitz and Rob Johnson. I think he's pretty similar to Taylor in terms of raw talent, although their strengths and weaknesses aren't very similar.

No kidding, his son works in my building. Small world.

I guess bungling the trade deadline last year is being made up for...
