    I don't have a problem with Sullivan's article. I wouldn't cut Dareus, but don't mind a local sports-writer calling him out publicly.

    I was feeling pretty good about Bills staying in Buffalo until this absurdity. Thank god none of these rumored Toronto people have that type of crazy money to throw around. Hope Bills get sold soon. Only a matter of time before NFL is back in LA if the Clippers are worth $2B.

    Exciting time for Buffalo. I hope people appreciate this once-in-a-couple-generations opportunity, and that the decision-makers don't screw this up. Unless NFL promises a Super Bowl for a Niagara Falls stadium, can't see how downtown area isn't best location.

    Gotta be the Boss. Springsteen would be a perfect fit for the blue collar Bills.

    I think the boycott is great. It's blue collar, loyal Bills fans who've supported the team for 50+ years vs. a big hair pop-rock artist who sold out a long time ago and wants to take their team away from them. These people don't have the money that Bon Jovi has but the optics are horrible for him.

    Interesting that the dinner meeting happened right before the draft. Maybe it was Brandon running by the draft strategy with the new ownership group. All the tea leaves are pointing to Bills being sold very soon and that the new owner is probably already known.

    I was for a Niagara Falls stadium until I read this. Writer brings up a lot of good points. Region desperately needs a vibrant downtown area. Bringing 70k+ to the downtown area helps even if it's only 10 times a year.

    I'd hope the new ownership group has deep enough pockets to simply write a check instead of financing any of the purchase price. Millstein's bid for Redskins was supposedly shot down for financing the purchase price. And if the funding of the Ralph improvements is any hint NY State and the local governments will fund the lion's share of a new stadium.

    Can't see how Pears makes the team at his current salary.

    Peerless was a 2nd rounder and played well. Donahoe actually got a 1st rounder for Peerless from Atlanta where he was a disappointment.

    What is the point of writing this article after the draft? I can at least respect the si.com article raising questions before the draft. ESPN jumped the shark a long time ago. They are Disney's cash cow and 90% of what they spew is bottom-line driven and to get clicks.

    I think the Milstein news today makes Niagara Falls site more likely. Would look too shady if Milstein buys the Bills, then Cuomo and the local politicians hand over hundreds of millions in taxpayer money to build a stadium on his land. People would go more nuts than they already would have when new stadium is heavily taxpayer-subsidized

    NCAA is a farce so not worried about him running into problems with them. Not like he was arrested or anything like that in college. Seemed like he had some growing up to do but haven't read anything yet that suggests he's a bad guy. More worried about his fumbles.
  15. BuffaloRebound
    On buffalobills.com. Surprised how forthcoming article was.
  16. BuffaloRebound
    Interesting that Bills were furiously trying to trade back into the 2nd round for Carlos Hyde. This and what Bills gave up for Brown tell me they don't plan on him being a 3rd stringer.
  17. BuffaloRebound
    Kouandjio. If he's gone, trade down and re-coup some 2015 picks.

    Schefter is the only guy worth listening to on ESPN. McShay is horrible. ESPN jumped the shark a long time ago. NFL Network seems to have raised their game. I'll be watching NFL Network tonight.

    Beckham. Bigger version of Steve Smith. Think he ends up having better career than Watkins. If used properly, Spiller does a lot of what Watkins can do. Trade Stevie to Carolina for a 3rd rounder.
  20. BuffaloRebound
    Interesting study. Pre-salary cap data almost irrelevant though and rookie wage scale a game changer for top 10 picks. Still, hard to deny that cost to move up has historically been too expensive.

    I think the timing will piss Goodell off even more. Draft is by far the biggest NFL event between February and September, and this moron gets arrested 2 days before. In a way, I hope Goodell throws the full book at him and suspends him 4 games. Dareus needs a wake-up call.
  22. BuffaloRebound
    Don't remember Nigel Bradham missing any games.
  23. BuffaloRebound
    I like Watkins but his style translating to NFL is a concern. A guy his size who constantly looks for contact might not last that long. I think Evans' game translates better to NFL.
  24. BuffaloRebound
    Just watched his Rutgers/ND bowl game tape. Martin was impressive. Great run blocker. Consistently pushed his man 3-5 years down the field. Seems like a safe pick at #9. If he does struggle at Tackle, he'll be an All-Pro guard. We could do worse, but would prefer to trade down if he's our best option at #9.

    I'd assume NFL pays for all the players' and their families' travel expenses including some kind of clothing stipend. It's the least they can do when you consider how much money NFL makes off the draft.
