I know. Then when everyone says Gore is "old" at 36! I was in the best shape of my life at 36. 5 hours ago, OldTimeAFLGuy said: ...sorry....Orton goes first........... Sorry...Billy Joe Hobert!

Check out the Maybin write-up on this site ... LMAO ... https://www.buffalorumblings.com/2009/4/26/854922/2009-nfl-draft-buffalo-bills-pick I remember Shawn Nelson, many including me thought that was a steal. During that MNF opener against New England(McKelvin fumble at the worst time part 1 of however many times it happened) he had a nice TD catch early in the gamr making it seem like maybe he was for real. Never really did much after that, but I remember that catch being on some Bills highlight reels for awhile after.
Freddie's Dead Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 Should have retired a Bill. We either drafted crappy players or didn't sign them after their rookie deals. I know a lot of folks here thought that Levitre wasn't worth the money, but look at the crap$hows the Bills tried to replace him with. 2013 - Legursky (gag) 2014 - Urbik (serviceable, sort of) 2015-2017 - Richie (not bad, then he went batcrap crazy) 2018 - Vlad (gaggag) When you look at the RG's we had, it gets even worse, since we could have used Richie and Levitre interchangeably for 3 years. 2014 - Erik Pears (yes, that guy) 2015-2016 - John Miller (OK for a rook, sophomore slump) 2017 - Vlad (gaggaggag) 2018 - Miller (see ya) So the Bills got three good man years from Richie, and 9 mediocre-poor years from everyone else. Paying Levitre $6-7M/yr would have been cheap. Could of, would of, should of [sic].
