    EJ Manuel looks like shit. They need to draft someone this year in the 1st round. The guy cannot throw a pass, which should be a skill he already has. Its tough to learn arm strength and control.

    yeah, the Jim Kelly thing is just awful. He is now a great man and he does countless things for sick children and their families. The vague reports that have come out all seem to not sound very good.

    No he wasn't. How did you quit? I been chewing for 20 years and I want to quit but it's so damn hard.

    Tough week to be a Bills fan. I actually shed a tear of course I was doped up on Vicodin.

    Mayday I don't see the Bills moving anytime soon. With the new lease and financial penalties it would cost. Say the Bills were sold for 900 million (which is possible I think they are valued at 870m) then you throw in anther 400 million to move the team which brings the total to 1.3 Billion then you're going to have to pay for a new stadium and moving fees and other fees which could take the total well about 1.5 Billion. I don't see anyone and I mean anyone willing to shell out that much money.

    Like him or not and I don',t I don't think Goodell would favor the Bills moving. He knows how passionate we are as fans. This team has stunk this entire century. I mean it's pretty sad when the best season the Bills have had was when Mike Mularkey was the Head Coach. Yeah that's pretty sad in my book almost as bad as having the number 1 defense but gong 3-13 I think that season was far worse.

    If I could pick an owner it would Eddie DiBartilo *sp?* he's from the Youngstown area and he is committed to winning. Look at those 49er teams. He surrounded himself with smart football men and built a dynasty.

    Plus with all the upgrades to the stadium it's hard to see this team leaving. If it does happen screw the NFL I will just focus on NCAA football. Players leaving is one thing but no city should ever loose their team if they support the team. Bills fans support the team. Yeah a lot of games in November and December are not sold out but can you blame the fans for not wanting to sit in the cold and watch a crap team. But September and October that stadium is packed with BILLSNATION.
    My butt itches!

    What are the bills going to give up to get that #1 pick from Houston? I think they want clowney.

    I think they want Mack. Not sure what they will give up. Obviously they will swap number ones. Maybe a second or third and a pick for next season. Clowney or Mack would be a good choice either way.

    Great 1st round. I have wanted Watkins for awhile, and I think, even though they gave up next year's 1st and a 4th, it was a steal.

    yeah, very excited for Watkins.
    Hopefully Manuel will be up to the task with all those weapons.

    Initial bids were due yesterday.

    Reports say there were only 3 bids submitted. Trump who is a characture, Pegula at $1.3 Billion, and the Toronto group at $1.2 Billion

    Still a ways to go, but if true, best Bills news in a long, long time

    I would love to see Bon Jovi's management to fuck up and book a show in or near Buffalo. It would be a very ugly scene and I would be shocked if they made it through their set.

    Gotta feel real good about the Pegula bid. Only worry has to be the Rogers going insane

    Trump isnt a worry at all. He is all but out of it...


    Pegula seems like a heavy favorite... and I agree on the Rogers/insane worry... however, it has been reported he needed permission from other family members just to get in this far.

    I really do think we will see expansion for Toronto in 5 years
