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!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

With the luck the Bills have had in the past I would trade our first pick every year. It's such a crap shoot it's probably better to have more picks in middle rounds which gives you a higher probability of finding a genuine ball player

It's not a crap shoot if you actually have decent talent evaluation.
i think that's harsh. half the first round busts out each year.
are you saying that half the league can't evaluate talent?
Show me the successful teams over the last decade and post their 1st rd picks for that time period
now compare these successful teams 1st rd drafts to the teams who've sucked most of the decade.
I think it would be VERY obvious that successful teams with good evaluators sure show a much higher percentage of picking the right players over the failing teams.
Bottom line the 1st rd of the draft is not anywhere's near the crap shoot that you think it is. Another bottom line with the Bills drafting is clearly talent evaluation and has abslolulty nothing to do with crap shooting
The Bills have traded up (and given up needed picks) to draft Losman and McCargo. They've reached massively on McGahee and Whitner, and they have drafted the wrong player at key need positons with Eric Flowers, Mike Williams and Aaaron Maybin.
Our track record wiht bad drafts is purely 100% evaluation. Think of how different this decade could of been if we had drafted players that so many of the armchair draft experts here on this forum alone had chosen over the mess the Bills braintrust had chosen
