You have a nice day, Sunshine.

Interesting. I'm not a draft guy so I don't know much and don't pay close attention, just seemed like this might be a guy to anchor the middle and keep LBs clean. But I'll take the word of both of you guys...

Agree with you there, though obviously some of it depends on what happens in FA. I'm thinking CB in round 1, but what happens if Jordan Davis is there at 25? I can't imagine passing up on him.

Maybe, but when you need to keep developing as many players as possible on rookie salaries once your franchise QB's huge cap hit takes effect, you need those draft picks, especially rounds 1-5. I'd consider getting Barkley for one of ours 6ths plus a player—like maybe Moss. Yep, see above. Sorry if you don't like that, it's not absurd.

Nope. I’d take him for maybe a 5th or lower, but not a 4th. I’m not opposed to adding Barkley, but I think our higher draft picks are more valuable right now.

Barkley for a 4th? No thanks.

Ah, memories. Looks like that was the day after the schedule release, and everyone was circling the Bills-Chargers game for the big Flutie-Johnson rematch. I remember watching that game in a Bills bar in San Francisco. Great game, except for the final outcome. Kinda funny how some folks were thinking the Bills could go 3-1 out of the gate that year, or 4-4 at the halfway mark. They went 0-4 and 1-7. Some things never change!

I'd totally come to town for that celebration. My cousin lives in south Buffalo and told his wife if the Bills win the Super Bowl he's leaving the house for several days and to not bother looking for him.

So the play called down near the goal line at the end of regulation was for Mahomes to ignore the open receiver, run backwards 10 yards, and fumble it?

Yeah, well, just wait until the Pats*** figure out how to trade for Rodgers *and* acquire 3 compensatory draft picks at the same time.

We need Aaron Donald to host a DT Academy and have Ed Oliver attend.

Just seeing those names again like Marrone, Hackett, Mularkey, Orton...man, what dark times.

So glad to be able to rehash the final kickoff again.

Crazy game. Bills were 0-11 but the crowd was announced as 74,000. That was the first time the Bills had ever beaten the Cowboys, and the Cowboys first trip ever to Orchard Park.

I don't know what the hell that is but I'm not clicking on it!

C'mon, Yolo. Page 3. Keep up!

Nice tweet from a couple years ago...

So close, man. So close.

Interesting and relevant snippet from a Buff News article today reviewing the offense in 2021: As Daboll said, good all-around TEs are tough to find, and Knox developed into a good one pretty quickly. His star is still on the rise. He wasn't a top-5 TE in the league last year but some team will pay him with the expectation that he will continue to develop into one. He'll be tough to keep but man, I sure want him to stick around.

I don't know, according to a lot of posters here McBeane hasn't been very good at drafting the last few years.

As much as we were underwhelmed by Stevenson this past year, I have a feeling the coaches will look to develop him more and give him a shot at that role before drafting or using FA to find someone like that.

I mean, it's pretty ***** impressive to realize he led 12 touchdown drives in two playoff games. No field goals, all touchdowns.

He’s gonna want it, and he’ll likely get it. The cap is going up, contracts get bigger and bigger, good TEs are hard to find, and every year—every year—some teams overpay for players they really want. Knox could easily be one of those guys. The question is whether we can afford what he could probably get on the open market.
