IMO its a mistake to make a play for any of the available big name vet QBs. I think there are too many other holes that need to be filled while to make a serious SB run now - so I would go for a caretaker who can run the show while Rudolph gets comfortable w the NFL and use the higher draft picks to fill the holes.

I also think we will need to replace Shady before we actually play in the SB again - only because our optimal window doesn’t open until he ages out.

Well I think we’d have beat Jacksonville with Cousins or Keenum at qb
So that puts us at least close to AFC championship level
Plus...
we can use all those picks to fill holes

Signing a QB like Bradford just gets us beat in the playoffs again right away (if he could even get us there)

Signing Cousins or Keenum,
and using all those picks to fill holes...
puts us on the level of every AFC team except Pitt & NE
And I’d say we’d at least have a decent shot to upset either of them

We are pretty good at finding running backs in the later rounds I think will be fine at running back to be honest .

you could just drafted in the fourth round this year and you’ll be fine

Really good RBs pop up all over the place. I’m not worried about it but I think the timing requires it.

But I have a feeling we’re going to get Kaiser’s guy

Mayfield just seems like that type that will love buffalo and his cocky attitude will be like the days of Jim Kelly ( words for my grandpa )

We have the draft capital, and teams know it. The Bills will have to overpay to move up that high. Unless they can unload Glenn/Tyrod to move up also, without losing picks, but I doubt it.

It's better to be in love with Rudolph, Jackson, or Allen than it is to be in love with Mayfield, Rosen, and Darnold at this point, because they are more likely candidates.

Gerbe has been calling Mayfield my guy for about a week now.

I still like him but I think Rudolph fits our situation better.

Even still...
whoever trades up is doing so for a QB
And if it’s us, it would have to be an insane amount to get that high

Indi might trade #4 to us,
but we’d again have to give up a lot

Rudolph is my 2nd fav QB in this draft
Since we aren’t getting Rosen,
I would wait for him at 21
(Unless we were to get Keenum or Cousins... then I probably don’t pick a QB)

Making James Bond anything other than a white british man would be (frank)ing stupid....

....but if the SJWs got their way, I guess it would be cool if Idris Elba played 007.

Good World Juniors, probably. He hasn't been overwhelming in the WHL by any stretch of the imagination.

I would imagine some of these european guys would have some ridiculous numbers playing in the WHL this year, comparatively.

I'm no SJW, i just think he's great. Plus i relish picturing people's faces melting off a la Raiders of the Lost Ark when they find out that Bond is black.

Some men just want to watch the world burn
