  1. That ADP on Zeke is way off. He's still going in the first round.
  2. It wouldn't shock me to see this team better than last year. Tyrod is continuing to develop his game and the offensive line is another year together, which are two of the biggest keys for any offense. The defense was so completely lost last year that they can improve game day operations and be significantly better than they were last season, even with less star talent. Will they be dominant? Probably not, but if Tyrod progresses we won't need them to be. They have better depth this year too. Guys like Zach Brown, Alexander, Hawthorne, Blanton, veterans who can step in and know what they're supposed to do instead of looking lost when someone goes down in front of them. I would categorize myself as hopeful rather than optimistic about the teams chances this year. It's tough to be optimistic with everything that's gone on.
  3. You know it's bad when you're cut by the Ryan brothers for being too fat.
  4. Amazing how much better the defense seems to know what they're doing, even if it's just preseason.
  5. I don't believe this for a second, the timing makes zero sense. Why not do it on cutdown day? Either something else happened, or the Bills are such a mess they decided to make an example of someone, and Karlos was the easy choice.
  6. I love Austin, it's amazing here. San Antonio isn't bad, and the Dallas suburbs are nice. Houston blows. We don't have a state income tax and Texas is an amazing place to live.
  7. Got my Tyrod Jersey in the mail on Wednesday. Love the kid
  8. I'd put AJ Green and David Johnson above Gurley myself, especially in a ppr. Gurley doesn't catch passes and Cunningham will have a third down passing role. I also may consider Dez above Gurley. As long as Romo is healthy the guy is a monster.
  9. and it's live! http://deadspin.com/why-your-team-sucks-2016-buffalo-bills-1785446085
  10. Seems light to me too, must be something else in play here, otherwise it doesn't make sense.
  11. The NFL, acting as partner, should have oversight of the refunds. (Just kidding ) Good on the HOF for refunding hotel costs. They definitely didn't have to do it, that's a nice gesture.
  12. Probably saving the better name for the real "New Era" stadium!
  13. We're the last 8-8 team so we have to be tomorrow right?
  14. lol. How do you even approach this? Ask Rex: "Dear Rex, Would you please purposefully lose so we can fire you?" Ask Roman: "Hey Greg, wouldn't you want to be head coach of our team? Want to have your absolute worst season ever, on purpose, so we can fire Rex and you can take over next year? Don't worry, we'll all just ignore all the inevitable backlash for promoting an OC who was the worst in the league last year and completely screwed up the development of our newly-signed franchise QB. And you'll get to hand pick his successor from the myriad of terrible QB options available!".
  15. It'll be tested this year for sure. This is a skill that Steve Kiem used to great benefit for Arizona last year, hopefully it will help us a ton this year as well.
  16. Rumors I've seen is that DGB was so bad in camp he was in danger of not making the team. Feels to me like this is just a case of **** swapping.
  17. So they have an injury-prone starting QB, and a starting OT that is facing a 10-game suspension for substance abuse, and now traded their backup OT for a WR with a history of attitude problems?
  18. Don't overthink this, take Antonio and run
  19. I think the Bills are doing the best they can in this situation, bringing in veteran players who give the team a chance because they can pick up the scheme and get prepared to play. We've obviously lost a lot of athleticism which isn't great. Really need the CBs to be solid this year, a lot will be riding on them in the passing game.
  20. On the player getting cut thing, I'm starting to think this is common in NFL culture. If you watch All or Nothing, Bruce Arians cut a guy that was trying to make the team for parking in the wrong parking spot.
  21. Top 3 are the best three spots this year. #2 - I'd take OBJ (slightly higher upside than Julio Jones). I tend to go against the norm and am not all-in on Zero RB like I was last year, as WRs are flying off the board. For me, the tiers at the top of the draft look like: Top 3 Antonio Brown OBJ Julio Next 3 A.J. Green DeAndre Hopkins David Johnson #7 Todd Gurley 8-12 Big pileup here of players. Biggest thing: Always, always, always let the draft fall to you and take the best available player. I'm seeing a lot of good drafts from the top 3 and much prefer one of those picks (or top-6) over later in the draft this year. For reference, I'm in an MFL 10 draft right now with a bunch of fantasy pros. Matt Harmon (Fantasy Writer for Footballguys and NFL.com), and he got the #2 spot. His picks so far: 1.02 - Beckham 2.11 - Jamaal Charles 3.02 - Randall Cobb 4.11 - John Brown 5.02 - Tyler Lockett Pretty solid draft so far (this league is PPR 2 RB, 3 WR, and a flex). Dennis Esser has the #3 pick (from fantasypros.com), he took: 1.03 - Julio 2.10 - Amari Cooper 3.03 - Sammy 4.10 - Jordan Reed 5.03 - DeMarco Murray Pretty solid team as well. Compare this to Waz (@WazNFL) who is drafting from 12: 1.12 - Adrian Peterson 2.01 - Brandon Marshall 3.12 - Carlos Hyde 4.01 - Julian Edelman 5.12 - Delanie Walker 6.01 - Andrew Luck I much, much prefer the teams from #2 and #3 over this one. Finally, for reference, I'm drafting from #7 and like my team as well, but taking Gurley hurt my #1 receiver (even though I think T.Y. is probably around receiver #10). So far I've got: 1.07 - Todd Gurley 2.06 - T.Y. Hilton 3.07 - Demaryius Thomas 4.06 - C.J. Anderson 5.07 - DeVante Parker 6.06 - Jeremy Hill
  22. Yeah, but I haven't seen those guys criticizing the deal
  23. I think they can still have it picked up on local channels while blacked out on national in a market so the local guys get the commercials. They got rid of the complete blackouts where it's not shown at all.
