No idea why realtor thought there would be viewers then.\ Surgeries were done at different times when I could not deal with the pain. Yep. Tore mine wrestling my son. Two state heavy weight championships under his belt yet the old man still thought he could take him. He went with me to the ortho surgeon and when he told the doctor he was pinning me I interrupted and said, "trying - to pin me". Plenty of rehab, and still hurts some days.. We both knew he schooled me - sucks getting older. Edited December 1, 2018 by WideNine

I would understand if you lived in Buffalo area like rest of us." Yes we had a snowstorm here worthy of Western New York that year with businesses closed legitimately for a week. 1

He plays so physical. We really missed him in the run game after he got hurt. That shoulder nagged him all year, it seemed. Hope it’s fixed up.

I'm surprised he wasn't drafted as a safety. If McBeane can keep finding those mid round draft gems, our future looks bright, sooner rather than later

Teller came in the 5th, and he was ALSO a pleasant surprise. The details don’t matter, I like what I’m seeing and hope we can draft like that again (and again and...).

Also got Siran Neal in the 5th... didn’t play much that i recall but I think he did sack Aaron Rodgers

I misspoke But regardless, I firmly believe that late round gems make or break your team. Imagine that Taron and Wyatt were better players than 1st and 2nd round guys prior to McD. Wow! What a difference in philosophy! I think we got ourselves an outstanding coaching staff, which in turn will lead to an outstanding team. I'm all in on this staff. They ain't just putting on a Clemson helmet and going media friendly. They do their homework, and draft well. I'm excited. Give it 2 years, and we may be where we all hope to be?

Hope that’s a position well filled, because that’s your lifeblood!

Teller was on my radar before the draft as I saw some mocks that had him as a possible third round pick and there was an obvious O line need with the Bills.. Johnson on the other hand was completely out of the blue... my first though was WTF.? . but he has turned out to be a nice find... hope he is fully healed up and comes back next season stronger and even better Edited February 9, 2019 by Aussie Joe
Augie Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 @plenzmd1 was a gracious host, so I shall not ridicule him.........at this particular moment. There’s a time and a place for everything. And appropriate attire for everyone and every climate, including our Eskimo friends. 1

I freely admit I don’t know who most of these guys are. This is my “learning season”. 1

Thats who I was thinking about. Thanks Yolo Marvin Allen was another loss Hopefully Dan Morgan can pull his weight as Director of Player Personel this year. I know he ain't a scout, but he'll have a say. C'mon Free Agency!
