YoloinOhio Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I know some people are heading to Nashville... I’m headed to a big draft party for Day 2 Friday night but Day 1 on Thursday is going to be at home, like a game day food-wise. And i need to watch round 1 without having to talk to people. 8
Boca BIlls Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I don't know honestly. I will find a way though.
Codyny13 Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Same, home, yelling at the TV, and possibly the wife. ? 1 4
BarleyNY Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I’m in Naples, FL seeing my dad. I’ll be watching it with him. Round one at his place and rounds 2 & 3 at a local bar. 2
Kirby Jackson Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I’m thinking that I am going to host for a bunch of the Bills Backers here. There may be 10 or so over, going to smoke some chicken wings. I have a good setup for that. 1 1
NewEra Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Going to my local bar. There’s a private room for the bar owner and his friends. They play poker and watch the LV knights games there. I know a bartender there and he reserved it for us. 3 TVs in there so we can watch multiple stations and the nba playoffs. i had open heart surgery 5 weeks ago and this is my first night out with the boys. Really been looking forward to it. 10 1 7 4
The Bills Blog Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Have tickets for Endgame at 10:20. Hoping the Bills are done with their possibly multiple picks by then.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Does anyone know any details on the draft coverage? I see ABC is broadcasting the draft along with ESPN. Will ABC be using the ESPN broadcast crew or having their own. Watching some of the NBA playoffs today, seen ads for the ABC coverage, and hearing them touting how Bobby Bones will be present among other non football folks. Nothing says NFL football like Bobby Bones!! For me it's much easier for me to watch ABC rather than ESPN as don't have cable /Dish. Have a TIVO hooked up to antenna for watching networks, plus Sling TV So easier for me to record via TIVO if it's going to be identical broadcast, but would prefer having actual football coverage as opposed to the latest updates on the county music scene in Nashville. Was also thinking a little about how the draft process works. Each team has their draft room back at the team headquarters, they have a phone connection to a table at the draft site with a couple of Bills staff members there, sometimes the trainer. He then fields the calls from headquarters, writes the name on a card and turns it into some runner who brings the card up to Roger to announce the selection. If there's a trade, the cards a different color. In today's electronic, wi-fi, data age, they're basically using the same process as was used the first time the draft was televised. Kind of wondering is this really the process or is there something going on behind the curtain that actually runs the draft and what I described above is just for show on TV. And will they actually paint a room green for the top picks to wait in??

Our beloved Bills. Edit: I’m confident that the only picks we could make that would put me back in the hospital is Rashan Gary and *gulp* Jonah Williams. Edited April 23, 2019 by NewEra 2 1
