Michael Pachla: Gamenight. Finally. Plus, Bogosian, Nelson and Lehner

Fisted

Silver medal for me.

Good write up Pach. Glad to see Bogo and Beaulieu not playing. Let's see what Nelson can do. Too bad Antipin is sick. That poor bugger hasn't been given a chance at all to show what he's capable of on a sustained basis.

Buffalo 2 - Rangers 1

Pouliot and Kane with the goals. Lehner saves 44.

Botterill trades them all tomorrow.

Gonna cost a lot to trade up to #4
I doubt we do it

Yeah, I don't want to do it. Maybe he'll fall a little farther like A-Rod did though. Would be willing to give up our 1st first and first 2nd for him. Does that get you to the lower teens? Maybe, but wouldn't want to give up both 1sts for him. I don't think he is sure fire can't miss.

People might not like the mock drafts, but I think they are exciting and i'll be scouring the web from now till draft day. I love the NFL draft. What the hell else do I have to look forward to?

punkt, punkt, punkt.

I still see the bills with a lot of holes and a golden opportunity to fill a number of them at the draft...

i'm not sure trading up to the top-five for the third-best qb is either a) possible or b) a good use of assets

Sabres vs Rangers tonight?
Hahaha

I’d be surprised if Darnold falls past 6
I just don’t see Denver and the Jets passing on him

Even if they don’t want him,
I’d guess someone (Washington maybe?) will trade up to get him

Even a team like Cinci, who has an “ok” QB, might want to trade up for Darnold

Mayfield might slip to the teens (or go 5/6), or even Allen if Cleve doesn’t take him

But I don’t see Darnold dropping that far

I tend to agree
BUT

if we end up finally getting our franchise guy, we won’t care what we gave up 2 years from now

Ask Philly or the Rams if they mind giving up all they did to get Wentz / Goff

their teams were much further along, imo...

the bills desperately need a d-tackle and an inside linebacker...they need a talented wide receiver and help on the offensive line...they need depth in the defensive backfield and a running back to succeed shady, plus, imo, they need a tight end...

many of those are down the list save for the first three or four...

then again, we'll see what they do during free agency

We certainly have holes...
But “Franchise QB” is by far the biggest

Once we fill that,
the other stuff will fall into place
U can find fills for those other spots in free agency & later in the draft

I’d prefer to use those picks as well,
and just sign someone like Keenum or Cousins

But even if we “sell the farm” to move up...
I’d be cool with it as long as we got the right guy
(I don’t think the Bills will do that though)

We actively trying to trade him or did they decide they like his play in this system?
