Bills players you disliked
Bill from NYC replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Another great thread! Here are a few (not necessarily in order): 1) Donte Whitner: The only thing he was good at was self promotion. He got jammed up in a domestic, tased at a club, held out before signing, and made 36 million real cap dollars. To this day I consider him the worst Bills draft pick ever, taking into account the players we passed on and the multiple trade offers Levy declined. When he got drafted I posted on TSW that he would set the franchise back 5 years. I underestimated the length of time. 2) Jerry Ostroski: Remember when he insisted on playing center? He was making 3 million per year when that was big money for an NFL guard. The problem was that he sucked. Defenders were sacking our QBs before he got out of his stance. 3) Not players but the combination of Levy/Jauron: Ivy League degrees and all, they were Rich Kotite level horrible, worse in terms of the draft. Looking back, we never had the slightest chance of winning with these 2 inadequate football men running the show. -

What habit have you ever broken?
Bill from NYC replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in Off the Wall
Cigarette smoking 5 years 5 months and 21 days ago. I was a degenerate smoker. My now fiancee is allergic to smoke and I had a terrace apartment. I kept a snow shovel inside and shoveled a spot on the terrace so I could stand there and smoke in a full blown blizzard. If I can quit, anyone on Earth can. I am not going to lecture anybody, now or ever. I do however urge anyone who would like to stop to make an attempt to do so before it kills you. GO BILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -

I'm not so sure how necessary the bolded comment was. -
Jets' draft ammo is crazy right now
Bill from NYC replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This concerns me to a degree. The Buffalo Bills proved to me that a team cannot stay lousy forever. The truth is that both the Jets and the Dolphins are in good positions for the future. I hope that we win multiple suoer bowls and do it soon. -
Good post! Just to pile on, there are no less than 5 highly rated quarterbacks in this draft which dramatically increases the value of picks. In another draft, Kellen Mond might be a first round pick. Here is the mere pittance that the Bills received for trading down from 8 to 16 in the 2013 draft. Of course we squandered the picks but that is another seperate issue. This year the price would at least double imo. In the deal, the Rams moved up to the No. 8 overall pick with Buffalo moving down to No. 16. The Bills received the Rams' second (No. 46 overall) and seventh-round (No. 222) choices in exchange, and the two sides swapped picks in the third round to get the deal done.

Agreed. If we gave them our entire draft they would want additional first round picks. Not only that, I sense that there is no possible way that they would trade that far down.

This is a slam dunk imo.

Darnold to the Panthers
Bill from NYC replied to 17islongenough's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree that they didn't get a huge return for Darnold. That said, why would they in a draft with just so many QBs and the #2 pick? Are the Panthers out of the QB race? I would say 99% chance yes, in terms of the apparent top 5. Would they take Mond from Texas A&M if he is there in the 2nd round? Maybe. I think that it would be a smart move (and btw an OK move by the Bills imho). I am probably going against the grain, but I think that the Panthers got the best of this deal by far. As always, jmo. -
Getting my 1st Covid vaccination Tuesday
Bill from NYC replied to Chandler#81's topic in Off the Wall
This was not my experience. I got both shots at Walgreens. They were given by a pharmacist, not an RN. The woman was 100% professional; the shots were painless and the side effects were nothing but limited arm pain which went away quickly. There was no wait at all. I was completely satisfied. -
Sitting in a transit all night long Playing clubs and rocking right on The road's much too long since I've been wasting my time Wish I was home again sipping my wine And I'm gone, gone, gone, I don't care Cause I'm gone, gone, gone, I don't care It's where I'm from, I'm on the road again

Bills pre-draft visit tracker
Bill from NYC replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
From my untrained eye he played like a safety against Alabama. He made some pretty nice tackles. -
You Can dress in pink and blue just like a child And in a yellow taxi turn to me and smile We'll be there in just a while If you follow me Me babe, steppin' out Into the night Into the light You babe, steppin' out Into the night Into the light

That is an excellent point. If any of the numerous allegations against Watson are true, maybe we will see who the NFL is more concerned about alienating: dog lovers or women. PS: For the record, I believe that it shouldn't come down to this. It would be pretty cool if right and wrong entered into the equation.

Love is so surprising Opened up my eyes and You reached out and took my hand Baby you touched a-my soul now Woman don't let go now Hold on baby just a little bit tighter

I fully agree, and as much as I like Najee, he is not my first choice when we select. That said, he IS a great athlete. As big as he is, he leaps over defenders. He has great moves, is an excellent blocker, and really can catch. The only thing that he lacks is that extra step in terms of top end speed. Your comment about the number of carries is however something to seriously consider. I won't be mad if we select him but once again, I would prefer a blocker. Jmo.

Dressed myself in green I went down to the sea Try to see what's going down Maybe read between the lines Had a feeling I was falling, falling, falling Turned around to see Heard a voice calling, calling, calling You was comin after me Back to me I had to move Really had to move That's why if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha don't you come around here anymore
