When everybody is special, nobody is special. I agree, just think the perks shouldn’t be mission statements or the like, those should be privy to all fans.

No one hits on all of their picks, but these guys are developing a pretty good track record in the draft. But unless the qb works out it doesn't matter though.

I mean the letter is pretty pointless and nondescript but for a franchise as bad as the Bills you’d think they would reach out to their entire fan base. This had to be the dumbest thing I've read in a while. How on God's green earth are you going to find the addresses for every Bills fan? 1

LabattBlue Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 (edited) It means absolutely nothing, but it struck me as funny that he refers to the owners as the Pegula's...not Terry & Kim, not Mr & Mr's Pegula, not Terry & Kim Pegula. Then in the same sentence he refers to the HC as "Sean". Just seems poorly worded. I'll move on now. Edited February 5, 2019 by LabattBlue

PromoTheRobot Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 (edited) I don't understand what everyone's beef is. If the team sucks so much, then don't follow them. Who's got a gun to your head? Edited February 5, 2019 by PromoTheRobot
papazoid Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 he nailed it....outstanding directed to those (STH) who are looking for reasons to validate their continued financial support. he's paid to put a positive spin on it. everything he said is true and believable without sugar coating it. the naysayers can dismiss the letter as just words....that's fine too. hope springs eternal......this is the year that will define his tenure here.....won't have another $100 mil to spend in FA for quite awhile

ctk232 Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 We know better than to read too much into this - but I'm curious what may have been said and what the take aways were from those meetings with Josh, Edmunds, and Tre for their offseason plans/goals to meet. Anything from the typical offseason curriculum and workout plan to hopefully team leadership plans for the future in establishing that foundation he keeps talking about. Also curious if he invited any other guys into similar conversations to keep as pieces moving forward. Of course, we'll never know but it's the offseason so nothing else to think about until mid-march.

The 5th round where we got our best player for the last decade?
