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

...and kvetch about Ragland being a two down player, and Washington not being a 350 lb. NT and no OT picks and a RB selection for whatever reason, how do you think their draft would have been had they NOT beat NYJ in the final week?
IIRC, when the dust settled, they lost something like 6 positions - they might have selected 13th throughout the rounds instead of 19th.
Re: From the Spilt Milk Dept: As we crab about Lawson,
More bitter because we lost another game and still took an injured guy.
Some people though would have loved losing an extra game for it I guess, because it's that much sweeter to poke yourself in one eye before you poke yourself in the other.
I wonder about if they could have nabbed Ragland at #13. Crystal ball stuff, but had they kept their 4th, Billings was in play for a long time...
Nobody knows if he will pan out, but there sure was a lot of fan talk about getting a "fatbody" for NT what with this or that 3 -4 DT set talk. Dunno.
so they would have gotten yet another defensive player for the Buffoon? Will it really matter?
Got news for you..its never enough for him, just ask the Jets.
Just wondering...since everyone is so keen on rebuilding that which didn't need rebuilding...
When you hire a contractor, and they come in and screw up something in the house that wasn't broken...
something you've just spent a bunch of money on....
something that had been working both efficiently and functionally...
and the contractor it because it wasn't what he normally installs...
Do you actually 1) keep this man around AND 2) pay him extra to fix what he himself broke?
You know, most states have consumer protection laws against these kind of fraudulent practices.
Re: From the Spilt Milk Dept: As we crab about Lawson,
So, let's assume we did lose and fell all the way to the bottom of the 7-9 teams, we'd have picked 14th I think
For comparison sake, Oakland picked in that spot this year. They took (http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/tracke...team-input:oak)
1.14 Karl Joseph, S
2.44 Jihad Ward, DE
3.12 Shalique Calhoun, DE
4.2 Connor Cook, QB
5.4 DeAndre Washington, RB
6.19 Cory James, OLB
7.13 Vidal Alexander, OG
Would you trade our draft for theirs? Who would you have taken in their place? Put some names down.
Re: From the Spilt Milk Dept: As we crab about Lawson,
I've got a ****-ton of scenarios in the draft simulator thread...that's who I would have taken, whether we stayed in the same spot or moved up to 13. Lawson and Ragland were both on my first round wish list so really I'm still good with those picks.

Bills haven't had 2 consecutive non-losing seasons since 1999-2000, so spill all over that positive nugget.
Twist that any way you want, but the fact remains that the Bills FIRED the only coach that gave them a winning season out of that stretch. And the new coach, as he did in NY, took the old coaches team and won some games, but less than the old coach in Buffalo.

That's not a positive thing.
? No they didn't. We had two coaches bring winning seasons and both quit. You can criticize them for having a situation where coaches would quit, but be accurate.
