Matthew Fairburn @MatthewFairburn LeSean McCoy said "don't be surprised" if Jeremy Maclin ends up with Buffalo Bills. McCoy's been recruiting him. Jay Skurski @JaySkurski LeSean McCoy says "don't be surprised" if Jeremy Maclin signs with the #Bills but that "a lot needs to happen." He's recruiting him hard. Matthew Fairburn @MatthewFairburn Tyrod Taylor said he's going to get Jeremy Maclin's phone number from LeSean McCoy and join the recruiting effort.

With our injury history at WR, I certainly wouldn't mind if he was a Bill. What would be interesting to me is to see what kind of deal the new front office would offer, to see if things have changed at OBD. I'd like to see a two-year deal that doesn't prevent us from re-signing Sammy.

Love this thread!

But that's not how it's done in the NFL these days. That's what I'm told, at least.

Sweet! I'll be cashing that one in soon enough. I have far too many opinions on this team.

Interesting to see who was dead last from 2014-16.

Thanks! I think Ralph sent us a signed certificate when we reached 35 years. Wonder if there will be anything for 40?

No kidding...I believe this is now our 40th year (1977).

I've always thought TT was at his best with play-action and misdirection plays. Sounds like this will play to that strength.

Well done, sir!

I'd like to see another TE brought in, but I'm not terribly worried about RB. I was a Gillislee fan and didn't want to see him leave, but I'll reserve judgment on the guys we have until I've seen them in training camp and a preseason game or two. Not too hard to bring a RB in late in TC.

Probably week to week given that they're only practicing at that rate.

Done! (sorry)

John Wawrow @john_wawrow #Bills rookie 2nd round pick, WR Zay Jones, not practicing after spraining knee in practice. Listed week to week. Let the medical staff criticisms begin!

Pretty sure that was sarcasm, big guy.

I'm sure there's a good reason Sully doesn't like this move.

You certainly have to feel pretty good about the vibe coming from the FO these days, unlike before. We'll see!

What horrible news. Hope he can somehow recover from it.

Many exciting finishes but the Kelly keeper is right up there at the top. Nate Odoms had to make a crazy interception off Dan Marino to give the Bills a chance. What was Marino/Shula thinking throwing it? There's also the crazy finish against the LA Rams on Monday Night Football around the same time. Frank Reich was filling in for Kelly and threw a TD pass in the final seconds to beat the previously undefeated Rams.

Thanks for the info and help, everyone.

Reading Carucci's column in the Snooze today made me wonder how much longer Shady might be with us, given his age, star status, and salary. I'm not as familiar with his contract and the impact on the cap, though. What would be the impact if he's let go after this season? Too much dead money? I don't necessarily want to see him go, but the new regime may not be as interested in a 29-year old RB with a high salary.

We've had seasons since, oh maybe 1977. I was able to get single game tix this morning. Got me some extras for the opener.

Don't forget about this thread from last year! The Ultimate Classic Buffalo Must-Eat Food Guide

Kevin Massare @KevinMassare 40m40m Crazy, P - Rehkow was also 92/95 on extra points, and 44/63 on FGs. Brings a BOOMING leg to do kickoffs too if ever needed. Super versatile.
