The fans made the right call in those cases over the Bills' Front Office. Pretty accurate impression. Are there many examples of the Bills picking against the fans and being right? Recently, it seemed like most fans hated the EJ pick and thought we gave up too much for Watkins.

IMO copy/pasting someone else's words allows others to think you understand football vs allowing folks to read YOUR meaningful contribution to the Bills football world.

Rosen was the safe play, Beane swung for the fences. Agree 100%. Ruined my day the we took the wrong Josh, however - Now he's our guy & I'm 100% behind him. Either candidate is a change from what we've done in recent past though. It could've been the safe play or the Home Run. I guess you can't hit a home run if your just trying to get on base tho.

In this situation we got the big solid player that can take the NFL pounding and not get man handled Meanwhile.....if someone gets a clean hit on Rosen......well......

Funny how perspectives change just because a player becomes a Bills' draft choice. The same player many here would be laughing at with ridicule of the team who selected him if it were the Browns or Jets. It's hilarious.

You know, we wouldn't be having this conversation if we hadn't let the Jets beat us out for the #3 pick. It really does all go back to that, and I think Beane got owned. If he had the stones to pull that trade off, we'd all be celebrating over Darnold becoming a Bill. Oh well. As I said above, I'm going to roll with it and hope for the best.

Threedollabills Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) Ok, folks. Josh Rosen said last night that 9 teams made a mistake. Is that what you all have wanted? You would've wanted him to say that 6 teams made a mistake? Homeboy Rosen is a little BEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Allen gets totally dummied by a saved screen shot from when he was 14 and he takes it on the chin. Rosen is not Buffalo, Allen is. Edited April 28, 2018 by Threedollabills 1
