Bubba Gump Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Maybe the Bills need to stop drafting Bama players. Last few haven't worked out so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonCents Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Wasn't the 4th pick traded for Ragland? Cardale was the comp pick. Maybe I'm wrong who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Â This is funny, you lay out your response as if to come across as seeming intelligent, but your response above doesn't address a single point that I made. I didn't mention 3-4, but it's implicit, either way, DUH! Â My argument had nothing to do with that. It had to do with Ragland, about whom all the people have been insisting that it's a reset with skeptics having overreacted once again having proven a glaring lack of ability to consider factual info presented. Don't worry tho, I wouldn't have anticipated that you would have been among those weighing the facts more than completely unsubstantiated opinions, which was really the crux of my post that you replied to. So no worries for you there. The facts on Ragland have played out exactly as common sense suggested. Again, contrary to a wealth of nonsense otherwise here. I never ever attempt to come across as intelligent . not sure where your head is at. and i was not addressing any of your points. just making mine. why do feel you are being attacked?

3rdand12 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 So that's the first two draftees down and out. Can't wait to see how long our third pick lasts  What in God's name does Rex Ryan have his LB's doing during a practice? Running barefoot over spilled legos while linemen dive at their knees? That is exactly what our most horrible head coach is doing Wasn't the 4th pick traded for Ragland? Cardale was the comp pick. Maybe I'm wrong who knows. nope 3rd dont bother with this....its a waste of time I don't mind. silly me i like everyone  even when they try to bust my nuts. it is just a friendly chat, and i rarely take it personal.

4merper4mer Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Yeah, because you were right about one thing means you are a voice of truth. Should we make shrines to you and call you the oracle? Nope. Â I was wrong when I loved the Rex hire for example. I loved it. But every single thing we have seen since points to his system being outdated and any time he spends here as being a waste for the franchise. And I didn't let the people saying I was wrong about Greggo/Marrone bother me either. If Marrone proved me wrong then great. I hope Rex proves me wrong but He just looks more inept every week. Â The good new is that we have a new young owner and that bought us tons of time to win. Pegula will get it right in the long run and Rex will be a mere memory.

YoloinOhio Posted August 8, 2016 Author Share Posted August 8, 2016 All depends on whether he needs surgery @profootballdoc Key is ACL stable or not. Unstable = surgery, IR. Stable = chance to play most of season. Partial ACL uncommon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 So that's the first two draftees down and out. Can't wait to see how long our third pick lasts    Here is the reality........you don't COUNT on rookies to fill holes in the starting lineup the way the Bills did.  The rhetoric post draft was reminiscent of when Levy was GM and was extolling the virtues of drafting for need.  You go into the draft with holes filled via free agency and then draft the BPA's at high dollar value/impact positions and hope that some of the draftees surprise and develop and hopefully even beat out a veteran or two.  Drafting Shaq and Ragnuts and then assuming the positions were filled was a mistake......and that has nothing to do with the injuries.  The transition was going to be hard enough.  Hopefully Spikes picks up the slack........he isn't that far off from the skillset of Ragnuts......which unfortunately emphasizes the lack of value in run-stuffing LB's in the NFL nowadays.  Should have addressed the OLB/edge setter situation much earlier as well. Drafting Shaq and tabbing him the starter was weak. Competition is a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonCents Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 well i appreciate the clarity just the same. being accurate with the factual matters, when divining opinions cheers Common Cheers. Trying to think positive, in 14' when Kiko went down before the season the rest of the team remained healthy for the majority of the season. Hopefully Ragland was this years sacrifice if that makes any sense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
