Days when your meds are working and you are spewing less stupid and boring posts. -
I agree with your choices. It seems that we are talking about the first round, so I am going to toss in ANY defensive back or running back. Selecting one of these would be to repeat the stupidity that has haunted this organization for decades. Even if the defensive back is "good," the team will continue to lose. Admittedly, the rookie cap makes it just a bit less awful than before but dbs and rbs in round 1 would be a horrid waste of resources for this team.

Yeah lol....the screeners used to put me right through. I once expressed concern to the Coach about Jeff Wright at NT. To this day he is listed at 274 pounds. I think that he was lucky to weigh 260. He told me that my concerns were invalid but we did have many good conversations. He made some good points about Levy to be honest. I also called some other WGR guy from my hotel on the morning show before a Colts/Bills game which you attended, many years ago. The guy was telling me that the Bills would probably lose because of the Colts defense. I freaked out on the guy and he seemed all puzzled. The Colts were undefeated but we had Bruce and Bryce. It was the year Bryce wound up being Defensive MVP. As I know you recall, this was THE most violent football game I ever saw. Harbaugh was the QB and he took hits that would have brought down buildings. I always respected Harbaugh after that game. I think that he was sacked 6 times and each hit was more brutal than the last one. I have a picture somewhere with the Coach at the stadium. One of my crew told him that Bill from NYC was there and he came over to shake hands. My friend Jerry told people in Lot 1 that I was Bill from NYC and they actually knew who I was. Great days, and I am going to do all I can to make it to Buffalo AND Tuscaloosa next year. I went to the Ralph 15 or 16 times. I'm due to see the Tide.

Miami trading Robert Quinn to Dallas
Bill from NYC replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I couldn't agree more. -
Blocking. I know that I am a broken record but it is even more important now. We have a young, mega-talented quarterback. He needs protection and a better running game to properly develop and better blocking would provide both, along with increased time of possession.

Mcdermott's thoughts on Bills aging backfield.

2020 will be the year of the wide receiver. There are going to be great ones coming out. -
What do you think the Bills record will be this season?
Bill from NYC replied to BmarvB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Other Bills teams neglected the OL when we had a QB who could run his way out of trouble (Flutie and Tyrod come to mind). I hope that McBeane does not repeat these stupid mistakes that cost us to lose countless football games. Josh Allen is extremely talented and he needs to be given better blocking and better weapons in this draft. I want to see the Bills play with a lead and then punish their opponents. It sure is about time. -
Tackle at #9, Dawkins to LG
Bill from NYC replied to Estelle Getty's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agreed, and this is a very good thread. I think that Dawkins is a good LT. By no means dominant mind you but good. Do you think that the Bills will want to sign him when his contract expires and give him 15 or 20 million per season to play LT? I am thinking maybe not. If they can find a LT with a higher ceiling in the draft I want them to go for it. I always thought that Dawkins would make a top quality Guard. -
Happy Birthday to Buftex

Have a blessed day! -
I thought that the largest legal bookmaker was the state of California. After all, who books the numbers, etc.? What they do in Delaware sounds like a good idea but the State of New York screwing something up isn't something I cannot visualize. Are you familiar with NYC OTB? They lost money booking horses.

It depends. If the betting is controlled by the state, I think that the fraction of which you speak might add up, especially in certain other states (perhaps Wisconsin for example). I am not against it, but I wouldn't want to get ripped off on the point spread if I was making a wager. And if I was a bettor, I wouldn't bet against the Bills under any conditions.

Bill from NYC replied to BmarvB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Interesting post. Over the last 20 or so years, I usually expected the Bills to improve until I watched them bungle draft after draft. This year I have high hopes at quarterback. With a strong draft and of course no serious injuries to Allen, I think that they will go higher than 7. -

The draft could push us into the playoffs if done in a sane way imo. I think that we both can agree that 6-8 wins would be quite depressing.
