amacc Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 (edited) Adam Schefter twitter feed just mentioned that the Bills have 2 1st round picks in 2012. Is that correct? Figured someone here would know. AdamSchefter Also not to be overlooked: Chargers, Bills and Browns, who now have two first-round picks in 2012. #knowmoreintwoyears 12 minutes ago Edited May 1, 2011 by amacc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Adam Schefter twitter feed just mentioned that the Bills have 2 1st round picks in 2012. Is that correct? Figured someone here would know. Two options: One, he is projecting that Dareus won't play due to injury so it will SEEM like the Bills have two first rounders in 2012 when he actually makes it to the field. or He projects that the 33rd pick is kinda' like having a second first rounder.

The Rev.Mattb74 ESQ. Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I believe he was talking about the 2012 mayan prophecy which fortells a great shift in universal fortunes where things go right for Buffalo sports franchise which knocks balance from all living things thus starting an appocolypse.

UConn James Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I think he just made a grammar mistake with a misleading/unspecific subordinate clause. Would have been much clearer to write, "Also not to be overlooked: Chargers, Bills and Browns. The Browns now have two first-round picks in 2012." This would be like: "Waiting in the doctor's office were Tim, Bob, and Tina, who was suffering from a vaginal yeast infection." The clause does not apply to the first two subjects. It's complicated a bit by sports team names being a plural case in American English, so "have" is used, which in sentences like this, is ambiguous as to whether the verb is plural case b/c it's being applied to all three subjects, or b/c it's being applied to one of the subjects (Chargers, Bills and Browns) that happens to be a plural case.

Scrappy Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 that would likely happen if the Sabres and Bills both won championships. It'd be a good time to go if those events happen, it's all downhill from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Rob Johnson Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 It's poorly written on twitter: he's saying the Chargers, Bills and Browns drafts shouldn't be overlooked. And that the Browns now have two first-round picks in 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the potential to achieve that you know! maybe someone will give us a first for Donte I would take that without even thinking twice! Heck I would take a 2nd for him without thinking hard either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
