All you knuckleheads who disparage Craig Rivet on the instigators, IMO he is spot freakin’ on with his insights into the Sabres problems and where the fixes are required.

He just laid all the issues squarely on the shoulders of the players collectively, and pointed to lack of leadership and accountability on them as well. “Far too many young players who do what they want”.

The veterans who were brought in to provide leadership have failed miserably, apparently though, the younger guys aren’t listening too well.

Player with 18 years, 992 games played, Alternate Captain of the Canadians, Captain of the Sabres. Nothing was given to him as a 3rd round pick, he earned it all.

I’ll take his insights, even though I don’t always agree with all his takes, generally though, I like many of them.

He just annoys me when he purposely says a players name wrong

In your opinion or is it a true necessity to the Bills?

He is asking if you think it's time to change that or it is a fact that it is time to change it

Nobody is arguing that the Bills are one of 3 teams to not take a QB in the top 10 of the draft

I don't really like Rivet too much, but he's absolutely right.

This morning on the @dpshow, Dan Patrick cites a scouting source saying the Browns are using their "love" of Sam Darnold as bait, hoping the Giants trade up to No. 1... adding the Browns prefer Josh Allen.

Seeing how the draft is going now I think we're pretty much (frank)ed unless a miracle happens


We really got screwed by the Jets

That's sad. The refs never let us have any fun.

Agreed

Brian Gionta was a decent pickup but he is too soft spoken IMO

They need a guy a Michael Peca type guy, but it might be too late for that

I have seen from several people that the Browns love Allen

Allen
Chud
Rosen/Darnold/Mayfield
Barkley


That leaves 2 QBs not counting Jackson (no thank you) and Rudolph who some think is legit.

I understand why people want the Bills to move up. But man this draft seems like 83 all over again (minus the Elway going 1st factor, and the sure thing future hall of famers).

You don't have to trade up to get a guy that can be a stud.

If we stay where we are at, draft 6 starting players this year...is that really "(frank)ed"?

I know you want the QB, but is it really that bad?

The quarterback is the most important position on the field and we have none ..

This franchise is way too safe take a chance for once (QB)

You finally have the pics to get a franchise quarterback will never have this many picks ever

I think they just need to gut the team tbh.

It's not a good mix. I don't think any one guy in the locker room changes it.

There is 0 excuse for Reinhart to just flat out not play for the first 35-40 games.

There is 0 excuse for O'Reilly to be invisible half the time, and have a brutal start in terms of effort

There is 0 excuse for Kane to mail it in, in December, in a contract year.

There is 0 excuse for some of the lack of effort plays we've seen from Eichel.

The only guy I'd excuse is Okposo, because I never thought he was playing again

if the bills draft jackson and he ends up being good then one of it will matter, but it will be them backing into a quarterback instead of actually trying to get one.

i just want to see some conviction. a good qb is the safest way to be good in the league. if theres a guy they want they need to move up and get him no matter the cost.

if it doesnt work then tough poop try again next time. being scared to go get a guy is the last thing i want from the team i root for.

I think half the fanbase will go in the corner.

You go to the playoffs and you're okay with sucking again
