Bill from NYC

With the receivers coming out in 2020, I might cry tears if the Bills took a freaking safety at #7. To really put this in perspective, Whitner was a #8.

Rudolph because I don't want to give up a 2nd in 2020 under almost any conditions. The 2020 draft is going to make the 2019 draft look like garbage imo.

You have surpassed your goal bro. I remember when my daughter was going to law school in Philly. You told me that if she ever had any problems to contact you. I will never forget that offer. I don't know how many times in my life anyone was ever that generous and kind to me. Be well, and if I can ever be of help to you I am here. Like I said in an earlier post, close friendships were built on this board.

Do you think it is OK if they disagree with you?

I think that its a slippery slope. The day that we all have to agree on every issue will be the day that this great board will cease to be so great. And while you are probably correct about some of your hunches, my money says that he is often correct with his takes, and; I don't think that he is a troll at all. We all cope in different ways. Some try to not expect so much in order to avoid being crushed when things fall apart. I for one like the directions the Bills have taken wrt Allen, the offensive line, and some other moves. I hope it works but I too try to temper my expectations after all of the heartaches.

I do not but it is great to hear from you.

A few days ago the NY Post listed the Bills odds of winning a Super Bowl at 100 x 1. There were very few team with bigger odds. The ones I remember were the Bengals and Dolphins but there were a few more.

The best part of that chase was the unforgettable Howard Stern prank call.

I'm not sure how cool it is for posters to be taunting someone like that. This would especially apply (imo of course) to people who cry to the mods about other "meanies." I am NOT saying that you complain to mods e-man. That said, I have a hunch that a lot of posters are, but then feel free to insult Scott and others.

Richie is doing well. He goes up for games and will be at the opener.

It just sucks to lose one of the old crew. We were a much smaller group so things were more intimate. Posters really did share good times and bad together. The thing is, it is such a good site that it kept growing and growing. One lesson the years have taught me is that sometimes we don't realize what good times we are having. May God rest her soul and comfort her friends and loved ones during these times of sorrow.

Wonderful.

I agree with this post except the bolded. I would prefer a RT to be a bit more of a bruiser but that is jmo. What I will day is that if you are correct about Jonah playing at the level of a Matthews (or better), Oliver will have to be an excellent player (he very well might be) for this to have been a smart pick for the Bills. It will be interesting to watch this play out. How do you want him to feel?

It is very interesting. They must really like Jonah Williams.

This is another player who squandered his God given talent. Imo if this kid had his head on straight he would have been the absolute best ILB in the NFL.

Are you trying to deny that the coaches ruined poor EJ?

I remember hearing something about this.

That is almost how I feel. I think that he does (or did) have NFL talent but he may have already squandered it. In the thread about EJ, I made the point about how I still think that RJ was a mega talent who just could not produce at the NFL level and he really tried. With Kelly, my bet is that his opportunity came and went.

Agreed, and I am not saying this with malice. Some very good college QBs are just not good enough to make it in the NFL. Hey, Rob Johnson had a much better arm than Tom Brady and he could run but he was a horrible QB. I am the first to admit that for years, I thought that Johnson would figure things out and make use of all of his talent but it was never going to happen, and he was WAY more talented than EJ.

Do you think that one yolk would have less cholesterol than the other?

Indeed.

Oh it really is Doc. There will be wide receivers all over rounds 1 & 2.

I thought that Artie was 10x funnier than Jackie. Jmo. The best part of the show were people like Crazy Alice and Elegant Elliot Offen. The best interview I ever heard was the nut who kept saying, "Oprah Winfrey, ***** woman of the south." The show was the greatest show ever in those days. Now, the show consists of Robin whining about President Trump and mostly boring guests. That said, the phone calls are still great.
