All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
I wouldn't have taken what they ended up giving Dallas for the # 12 pick, either. The Bills need to fill 4 positions of need on Day One of this draft to be able to hold their own and potentially improve (or at least credibly continue their rebuilding movement) this season and they would not have been able to do that by giving up their 1st Round pick in this draft without receiving something better than Cleveland's second rounder and a future pick (future picks are always rated as being one round lower than the round that they are in because the team receiving one has to wait a year to get a player with that pick). Dallas, with it's talent could afford to make that trade for their pick, IMHO the Bills could not afford to make that deal for their pick.
Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.
