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 posted before that I would not watch one minute of the draft this year.
But now profootballtalk.com has announced Jim Kelly will be announcing the Bills first pick in the draft, #50 in the 2nd rnd.
Now I have to watch to see Jim.
Why were you thinking of not watching any of the draft before?
I'll watch day two, and then either have day three on in the background or DVR it so I can start late and be able to fast forward. I'll probably DVR day one as well...so much BS, hype, and commercials that I need to cut through.
Re: Just when I think I'm out, they pull me back in
I honestly like watching the draft in any case, reading up on the prospects, lsitening to Mayock and crew, it's football ! It sounds stupid, but I still get a kick out of seeing athletes reaction when their name is called in their big moment.

ESPN or NFL Network? That's the question.
I am just mad about the 3 days they have dragged the draft into & starting on a Thursday night no less.
Today, with the apps on the phones, I will get an in depth report on the draft as it happens on my phone.
I used to DVR both the ESPN & NFL Network & watch every minute. I guess I will watch both on the 2nd rnd this year, at least up until after the Bills.

Re: Just when I think I'm out, they pull me back in
Well if you waited til our pick to watch than you would have missed Watkins last year. When we trade all our picks in 2016 to get Mariota you won't want to miss it!!
Re: Just when I think I'm out, they pull me back in
I won't watch Thursday at all but will have a nice meal with my fellow season ticket holder, prior to the Friday session. Then out to the stadium Saturday for the party.

True, but I will get a message on my phone the minute anything goes down.

Re: Just when I think I'm out, they pull me back in
The draft used to be one of the biggest days of the year for me, when it was on Saturday (and Sunday). Get together with friends, beer and wings. Good times. Now, it's on Thursday night. I have to get up at 4 am. It sucks. I'm boycotting the 1st round. The first one I've missed since the Shane Conlan draft. Screw the NFL.
