The good players you refused to pay would have been cheaper to keep than the money you'll have thrown out there to get mediocre players to even consider the Bills. These atrocious personnel decisions leave doubt and eliminate front office trust. Money is all that will be heard. Your organization will muddle around with a free agency swinging door while trying to find a QB to mask the glaring issues. This will lag on for a while as you attempt to hit on draft picks. But you already know this because the Bills have been doing it since 2005.

You should go back and review our history the last five years before sticking with your argument and being quite hypocritical in YOUR condescending tone. The Jags did some things right, but ours certainly isn't the model to follow. In any case, I know it may seem foreign to you, but fans of other teams can be fans of the NFL in general and be knowledgeable of other players and operations. Demanding your opinion is the only one that matters without even considering our perspective, especially what personnel hell we've been through, is quite frankly you being a jerk!

Hypocritical, Armchair, all mighty, entitled, childish, holier than thou, jerk... And I wondered why folks were starting to ignore you! Hard to have a quality discussion as you say, when your posts are overflowing with such descriptives and you demand that your opinions are the only one that matters because we are 1,037.6 miles away. If all else fails, attempt to use post counts and rep points as a quality control indicator! LOL

Again, glad you arent in charge..... 
Lets be real, I'm PRETTY SURE - infact I'm positive!!! That I said if thats not how this occured, tell me! You'd know!!! Right after contributing my speculation, the next thing I wrote was my take based on the limited amount of Jags slanted articles Ive read maybe not be what actually happend. 
The fact you simply illustrated my point of the ignorance is simply maddening!!!
Heres the score- some folks here contribute an incorrect take that isnt opinion and non debatable while making fun of the Bills.
With no sarcasm and totally good heartedness, Set the record straight in a respectful manner offering an explanation and insight.
In turn, im told im crazy,wrong, and my franchise is pathetic.
I make essentially the exact same statement but reverse to prove my point - and you come along and correct me... Which I knew would happen.
I made a statement on how the Jags came to be and am immediately corrected lol. I'd hope someone would tell me how it was just as I'd hope you'd at least hear me out with a Bills take. Its asinine in a sense
So now, this select few are experts on both the Jags and the Bills? And I'm supposed to take this seriously? This is a complete crap show.

Like I've said before, some great dudes/women on here. But of the 20 or so boards I visit when my team plays them this is far and away the most unwelcoming. 
I have a feeling it would have been in years past - but a half season of success seems to have gone to a few of your heads. Thats cool, enjoy it. I wish my team looked like yours do... but act like you've been there before.


Do you think I just magically showed up and started trying to troll you folks?
If the answer is yes - well - this is why things have gotten the way they have bc thats certianly not the case.
Do you not see the goading thats taken place simply because I'm a fan of another team? If not, your a bigger homer than the rest of them!
Bottom line is, I'm not going to sit here and listen to Jags fans tell me whats right and wrong with my football team like they are in tune with the situation when really they are off base and just simply egging me on. 
Having conversations with opposing teams is such a great thing because it is a great educator to how people think and whats going on around the league. 
I think is crazy over on the skins board there are people that actually dont like cousins. The rest of the league seems to, but unless you REALLY like football you arent going to watch every skins game to understand and see what their issues are.  Thats when the hometeam insight is helpful. 

I've been humble, I've admitted when I've been incorrect, I've been insightful, and I've been informative. When poked, I've poked back. I cant help you take offense to me sticking up for myself to another poster. If you've got something that adds to conversation with out being insulting - i invite you to contribute.
But dont call me out and then be a hypocrite less than 2 sentences later.

PS, isnt the entire point of the reputation for essentially 'liking' when someone offers a quality take? I'd say thats not a half bad way to measure what someone has to offer. I've hit quite a few rep buttons for good posts i found interesting or informative. Seems like thats kinda the point....

I'm trying to understand through all your jabs. I'll admit, most of your stuff is just too long to read, and I'm sure you've made some good points along the way. It seems you type these novels just to say you are okay with the Bills starting from the bottom again and building through the draft. No? You like the direction of the front office because winning hurts draft position? If so, that's a lot of hope placed in drafting well, and that's been very sporadic for a while. Going to take a while to build a core, add from the draft and supplement from F.A. You don't find it maddening that this nonsense has been going on for a while and just when you start to get core guys, they are chased away? What about the necessity to groom young players? It feels like the front office is deciding like they're playing Madden. You're okay with possibly another five years or more of rebuilding while begging older, overpaid castoffs to field a team?

Anyways, I'm done posting in here. This thread topic appears to have run its course.

The Bills are genuinely "blowing it up" and rebuilding with no foundation. Going to be painful.
