Re: So our win yesterday ended up costing us
Sort of. The biggest problem regardless, was that the Bills Strength of Schedule was already higher than just about any other team around us, and it was only getting worse by us playing the Colts. It was possible for us to stay at 8th, but the best we could have hoped for was 7th I think. If the Raiders had won, and we lost, we would have been guaranteed 8th, but lots - and I mean lots - of other results would have had to go our way, for our S.O.S. to change enough to get ahead of another team. -
Re: So our win yesterday ended up costing us
It cost them more in the later rounds, as teams with the same record rotate in successive rounds (i.e. in the above link, the Browns will pick 6th in the 2nd round while the Raiders will pick 7th and the Seahawks will pick 8th). But in the first round, it really didn't cost them because the Raiders always make some wild/stupid pick that shouldn't affect the Bills.Comment

Re: So our win yesterday ended up costing us
Never lose to move up in the draft, ever. The players deserved a win, the fans deserved a win. It looked like both players and fans were having a blast out there yesterday, and that was great to see. Made me go out of the season with a smile when we had nothing to smile about all season.True fans want wins, not draft picks.

Re: So our win yesterday ended up costing us
In the last several years, our first round picks have ranged from pedestrian to laughable.
I don't think 1 spot means anything. If we draft well under Nix, we'll get as good a player at 9 as we would have at 8. If we draft like we have over the past 3-4 years, we'll get Danteshawn McMaybin.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

- 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.
