Just remember, receivers nowadays are a dime a dozen. Grab one in the 2nd, but get the big guys early. (Opinion)
I assure you, the great ones are certainly not a dime a dozen. That said, a great QB can certainly turn average into good and good into really good.

Mr Allen tried to come to this Bills topic with info that he received and was told he was wrong and to stop getting all his info from the media.
The info I was trying to share was not speculation. It was well known knowledge inside the Buffalo Bills organization.
I understand I acted like a douche to those two posters. But go and look, ink came at me first. Acting if I was an idiot who gathers info from the media. It’s hard having patience with fans and posters like them. Just watch, they continue to flip flop but yet continue to act as if they are still always correct. Is fine. It’s cool. I just don’t need to listen to guys like them.Fair enough.

I use my non-dominant hand in a backhanded fashion. This way it feels like somebody else is doing it. 😂

People who won't own their opinions are also tools.
If the Sabres are ever good, should I deny ever saying anything bad about Terry?
It ain’t about owning/not owning one’s opinions, it’s about not being a douche in the process, which Mr. Allen was, but that’s just my opinion. 😂
Opinions can and should be flexible based on the information they are based on at the time they are formed. And there is nothing wrong with that.

I'd say it's ruined if you can't see the event. Imagine paying to see the Sabres play in the dark. Wait...
Meanwhile Buffalo weather nerds are really going out on a limb.
"Cloud forecast during the Monday afternoon eclipse remains uncertain at this junction and may not even be fully known until just a few hours before the event starts."
Nate Silver says hello.
Is the jig completely up on "experts" yet?
As the older folk say, Just look out the window.

Are you not entertained! I mean outside of October thru December this season these last 2 years have been an overall net positive as it looks to actually turn the corner.Watching this team keep spinning its wheels lost its entertainment value a while ago. The simple fact is we regressed from last season. Not saying the season hasn’t had its moments particularly where Oopie is concerned, and Benson has been a revelation. But all in all, just not much to write home about.

Power…..I’m seeing signs the breakout is coming. He looks more confident to me. Felt like literally everything he was doing throughout this season you could almost see him second guessing for that split second that split second makes a massive difference.
This is just his second season and he’s a plus 15 in that time logging the ice time - I know it’s no longer a preferred stat - it’s not the whole story but a good part of it.
No coincidence this team has been competent and good since he got here.If he begins to reach his potential this team is a perennial contender.
I’m all for giving Power the time he needs to grow and develop into the defenseman we all want to see and he has shown some glimpses in the midst of some gaffs, but what is this about this team being “competent and good” since he got here? We’ve been inconsistent at best. At best.

Making the playoffs or not this year, this stretch of essentially desperate playoff-type games, facing elimination if you lose, is good for this young team. Valuable experience for next year when we're actually in the playoffs.
Isn’t that what we said last year?

Buffalo certainly won’t be the only place marred by cloud cover for the eclipse, as most of the center of totality in the US has clouds in the forecast. While not optimal, it doesn’t have to run the event for people.

Collins is less than a year and a half away from his ACL/MCL tear and surgery when he was with the Bengals. Seems like his career has been stunted by one injury or incident after another. But he has started 86 games in this league despite that. If he can stay healthy (a big if, imo), his position flexibility can really help. We were interested in him before he signed with the Bengals, so Beane finally got his man.

The last wide receivers that signed a huge deal at 31 and 32 is only Julio Jones and jerry rice in history.
“Huge” is a relative term to begin with, but previous contracts in history really don’t have any bearing, anyway. As I said, if Diggs lights it up in Houston some team is gonna offer him big money, regardless because, again, they just can’t help themselves.

Diggs probably gathered as much money as possible because he knows he's declining
And no team is going to sign him to a mega contract when he's going to be 32
Some team will throw big money at him if he has a great year. They just can’t help themselves.

Just a great post -- this middle portion is especially incisive.
I'm quietly hoping for a boi-oi-oi-oing moment when Big Baller Beane goes all in, all in by moving this year's first, next year's first, a couple seconds (?!), and grabs one of the prized WRs in this year's draft.
Is the boi-oi-oi-oing moment the same as the schwing! moment?

Can Benson go to Roch after the season? I'm guessing he could only got back to his junior team because of his age.
Benson needed to be on the Amerks roster by 3pm on trade deadline day to be eligible for the playoffs. I believe he would be eligible to return to the CHL only after his NHL season ends, but junior teams would already be in the playoffs by then and I don’t know if they have similar playoff eligibility rules.

Speaking of D prospects, Ryan Johnson is looking good with the Amerks, too. Especially his skating, which is already elite, imo.

What I find it curious by their absence is any commentary from McDermott or Brady on this matter. I believe they were integral in this whole thing. Diggs wanted out and McD didn't want him on the team any longer IMPO). I can't shake the image from a couple seasons ago of Brady and Josh on the bench during a game looking at the pad together deciphering what the opponent's defense was doing. And Diggs is standing over them flapping his gums at them. Brady must have been thinking, or saying, 'Dude, STFU and go sit down. We're working here.' Brady was the QB coach then. He's the OC now.
The org made a value judgement. And as @That Aud Smell points out that's a hell of a wallop they just took. Hence we now know what the team's value, in totality, on Diggs was.
While McD certainly has influence on deals, player transactions are outside of his purview, so it’s really not surprising that he wouldn’t comment publicly, at this time anyway. I’m sure he, Brady, Josh and others will all make comments at some point in the future.
I think we will come to learn that there was a ton of internal friction buildup over the course of the last year and it simply reached a boiling point because that’s the only explanation I can think of for why they would do this a year before it made any sense to do it.
I think you’re absolutely correct about the value judgement they made, too. I heard some comments from a talking head about how this offseason saw a huge locker room leadership drain with exits of Morse, Tre, Hyde, Poyer, etc, and the Bills didn’t want that void being filled with a malcontent. Given the comment from Kromer’s daughter, I think there my be something to that.

Good Oopie means we have a chance. A slim chance, but a chance.
Bad Oopie means no chance at all. Needless to say, we got bad Oopie today.
