They only have 4 starting positions that are in question right now 1

Turk71 Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 Not having many glaring holes means you have a few, remember Tolbert filled a glaring hole at backup rb last year. These are 'glaring' holes, not just weak spots on the roster. Bodine is a guy who plays center, he is not very good but he plays. That hole is filled. See, no holes. ? 1 1

I'd say it's ambiguous because based on what he said, no matter what they do at the draft he can say we took BPA based on our board LOL. I probably phrased it wrong. It may or may not be a lie, but whatever he is saying to to the media right now is purely calculated and being said for a reason, and he’s not sharing anything about their real plans.

BadLandsMeanie Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 Can anyone find the original article? It says it appeared on bills.com yesterday, but I don't see it there. 32 minutes ago, YoloinOhio said: I probably phrased it wrong. It may or may not be a lie, but whatever he is saying to to the media right now is purely calculated and being said for a reason, and he’s not sharing anything about their real plans. What he is saying here is about if they whiff on getting a qb. He can say, like I told you before, we won't reach.

Chuck Wagon Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 I'll just go ahead and read it as "we have to make sure we are able to get the best player on our board, QB Sam Darnold or Josh Rosen" 4

High level business meetings, and clandestine rendezvous' with nefarious underground sources in Dunkirk, or Derby perhaps. Connect the dots. 6 minutes ago, 26CornerBlitz said: No. Yes it is, but only if the player is a failure. Trading away valuable picks for a total failure means you reached. Doesn't mean it never works out, but you still reached if you gave up a ton for a failure.
