  1. Thanks so much for your great work GB!!! I see that you have come around big time on Kyle Pitts. He is a freak imo, and some team is about to get VERY lucky!
  2. Asante Samuel CB. If he is gone they will take the next corner up. Bank on it.
  3. All around the world statues crumble for me Who knows how long I've loved you Everywhere I go, people stop and they see Twenty-five years old, my mother God rest her soul I just wanna fly Put your arms around me, baby Put your arms around me, baby
  4. It's all cool. I too think that Tyrod was about average because of his mobility. The 87 threw me off. No harm intended. 👍
  5. Hold on.....you rate him at 87 and say at the same time that he will be comparabe to Tyrod Taylor. I don't know, do you want to re-think this? 😉
  6. Actually, the bribery is a very good arrest if you can prove the offer. You would need an independant witness or a recording. Her lawyer would say that she didn't know what she was saying and the bribery charge might get tossed but but who cares? Departments arrests like this and you can also grab some overtime.
  7. Actually, White was one of your best calls on this board when you said that he was the best corner in the draft, but I remember better ones LOL. I am not sure if you will ever be able to top the Robert Royal observation. We couldn't stop laughing at the game when we saw what was happening. Or, how about when you told me that Jairus Byrd wasn't that good and that most of his interceptions were flukes that he lucked into? I remember thinking, "how can this be possible?" Next thing I knew he sucked and was gone. 😄👍
  8. The Bills could have drafted multiple good players including a quarterback. Russell Wilson and Kirk Cousins were there to be had. Instead they opted yet again for a top 10 DB. Drafting Gilmore wasn't quite as stupid as the Whitner and McKelvin picks but again, how many games did Gilmore win for us? I am thinking not so many. Jmo.
  9. I know that he is a good player but I still contend that he was a dumb draft selection. 2012 was a pretty good draft. Looking back, the Bills could have traded down and picked up some really good players. Players who would have won us more games than Gilmore.
  10. This would be a GREAT move if BB could pull it off. Going into his last year before free agency, Gilmore will probably fake a few injuries and refuse to make too many tackles.
  11. Thanks so much for the work, and the great points of reference coming into the draft!!!👍👍🙂 I feel as if you underestimate Mac Jones because remember, so did I. GB, I did not expect him to start this season, and thought that if he did it would be due to the lack of practices because of covid. I expected Bryce Young (now a true soph, current starter) to beat him out as a freshman. I have seen him hit his third receiver numerous times. His reads are quicker (imo) than those ofTrevor but please don't take this the wrong way, Trevor is the better QB, the best prospect I have seen coming out of college since Elway. Did you see the show on ESPN (I believe it was called QB 21) on which Jones was featured with Kirk Herbstreit? Mac stood in front of a giant screen and described how he made reads. It seemed like a fraction of a second on some plays. I don't pretend to have watched as much QB play as you have, nor do I think that I have the ability to rate them as well as you. Maybe the reason I rate him so high (other than being a homer lol) is that I refuse to make the same mistake twice. I firmly believe in this kid after what I saw this season. As always, jmo.
  12. None?
  13. Agree 100% and on NE he seemed to always get away with it. Still, I readily admit that Gilmore was a good player for the Bills, especially when he felt like making a tackle.
  14. I am not an advocate of drafting a first round running back. In fact, doing so was part of what hurt this team for many years. That said, I would prefer Najee Harris to Josh Jacobs, and I have seen all of their games, and even all of their plays at Alabama. Josh is a step (maybe even just a half step) faster than Najee. That is his only edge. Najee is better runner with a head of steam because of his size and strength. He is a clearly superior blocker and an excellent receiver. This is not to say that I don't like Josh. He is a great kid. He was a 3 star recruit who Saban took only at the last minute. At one point in his life he was homeless and slept in a car with his father. I am literally thrilled by his success in the NFL, which btw was no great surprise to me. Najee works just as hard as Josh and is VERY smart. He will have a fine career in the NFL. Do I want the Bills to draft him in round 1? Not really but I do admit that it wouldn't break my heart. As always, JMO.
  15. Of course. They remembered how easy it was to take advantage of us like they did in 2014, when we had an inadequate, amateurish GM.
  16. And the Buffalo Bills would certainly not be one of them. I liken the NFL to other forms of entertainment. Both football players and actors have a union to represent them (even though many are multi-millionaires) and seem to do a reasonably good job at doing so. In football, serious rule changes have been implemented for player safety, NOT for the benefit of the owner's pockets. Many NFL fans resemble those watching gladiators go at it. The rule changes have eliminated some of the violence. The NFL players are obviously the best of the best and the league enables them to earn the huge dollars they make. The draft and the salary cap are two of the primary reasons that the NFL is profitable for players and owners and competitive. Not every franchise has fans like us who will spend the big bucks and freeze in order to watch a team with almost no chance to win for 20 or so years. How about NYC police officers? They can move you out of Queens and into the South Bronx (with huge daily tolls) and there is really not much the union can do. The badge says "NYC."
  17. Too many players from Alabama and other SEC Teams. 😁👍🏈
  18. I completely believe that story. 😉😄🤨
  19. 1) The Bills will draft a defensive back in round 1. 2) The Bills will draft a defensive back in round 2. 3) A large portion of posters will defend doing the above as a smart move. 4) Unlike the old days, I will not freak out.
  20. Which would be insane because Mac barely played in 2019.
  21. Once the world was new Our bodies felt the morning dew That greets the brand-new day We couldn't tear ourselves away I wonder if you care I wonder if you still remember Once upon a time In your wildest dreams
  22. Wow, Melvin Fowler!!! When he took the field he really looked like a talented pro who could play his position. That is why it took me 2 or 3 games to realize that he was a simply horrible center. I mean terrible at run and pass blocking. I am however happy to hear that he was a nice guy.
  23. You got a fast car I got a plan to get us out of here I been working at the convenience store Managed to save just a little bit of money Won't have to drive too far Just 'cross the border and into the city You and I can both get jobs And finally see what it means to be living
  24. Nor does he belong there.
  25. Only the old timers will remember this:
