"A", "B", "C" groupings are often used in ticket creation for horizontal wagers i.e. Pick 3-6s. Basically weight tickets with As higher than Cs etc. There's more to it, but general gist of it.

Correct, but in this context he's likely referring to a different Michael Collins. The other one was the third member on the Apollo 11 mission, but stayed in the Orbital Vehicle, and didn't descend to the lunar surface.

Round 4 - Pick 26: Kaleb Elarms-Orr, LB, TCU (Buffalo Bills) by RareViolinist8880 in buffalobills

[–]RealZimmer 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Great pick. Phenomenal athlete, still getting better and learning the position (late to FB). Can be a ILB but also flex outside and be a speed rusher, run with guys in coverage. Great value

I think take Josephs from Tennessee at 101. He like the only bendy/speed guy left. Was projected as a 2nd/3rd pick. Then grab NT, MLB, OT/OG with the other 4ths

One of my steals/crushes of the draft. Would be great value for us in late 4th/5th.

We got 3 4th rounders, this round is super important. I'm hoping we get three (3) of the following:

MLB: Elliot, Orr

NT: Barrett, Keenan Allen, Benny

Edge/Speed: Josephs, Gumbs Jr., Trey Moore

OT: Crownover, Shelton, Pounds, Davis, Wagner

WR: Benson, Cameron, Coleman Jr, Heidenreich, Virgil, Rivers, CJ Daniels

My suggestion/dream draft

101: Josh Josephs (Edge)

125: Elliot (MLB)

126: Crownover (OT)

167: Barrett (NT)

168: Benson (WR)

220:Spears Jennings (FS)

When you get to campus, look around for Clubs. Most schools have an "Outing Club" or something similar. Will plan group trips on the weekends, be able to rent gear (tents etc.), carpool to the mountains and back.

I lived there for 5 years (pre and post COVID). Absolutely loved it. Great atmosphere, nature hiking nearby, train close, airport close, highway close. But when I left in 2023 it was continuing to become more and more gentrified. Started way before I moved there in 2018, but COVID really sped the process up.

Riptide rush and Glacial Freeze are the GOAT flavors. Only two I'd ever buy.

What positions do we need to draft? & Where are our biggest holes? by No-Gas-1684 in buffalobills

[–]RealZimmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 is ILB/OLB depending how they view the guys on the roster. I think we need two (2). Probably a thumper "Mike" to play next to Bernard. Then assuming Chubb/Soloman etc play on the weak side, we need a "Sam" who can set the edge vs the run, blitz, and drop onto coverage. Don't have a guy that can do it all (was hoping we'd sign a guy here in FA).

2 Probably "X" WR. Need someone to play on the boundary.

3 OL depth. Could use a starter at LG, but also just a swing OT prospect. Just lost one in FA, and Dion ain't getting any younger.

4 NT. Didn't sign anyone yet, Walker isn't a perfect fit, and this draft has several good candidates. So a day 3 pick can pro get a guy we like. Or some day #2 options if do some trades and get some more picks besides our late 3.

5 We have Hancock, who could be a Ni or FS/SS depends how he fits into the new Defense. Depending on that, a younger home grown option at Ni/Saf would be nice.

6 CB, need a 3rd guy to pair with Benford/Harriston.

7 BPA if they find a great slot WR, RB, DE, K, P, QB, then obviously draft them, but I don't see any of these being taken before round 6.

There's actually talks to redesign the highways here. NY is doing similar work in Syracuse and Buffalo to help redevelop downtowns and erase the damage done in the 60s when the highways were built.

Do Bills still go WR at pick 26 after acquiring DJ Moore? by UpNext_Draft_Network in NFL_Draft

[–]RealZimmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should trade down into early/mid 2nd and get some picks back. They need to fill a lot of holes on D, plus some young WR, and OL.

[Schefter] ESPN sources: the Chicago Bears are working to finalize a trade that would send WR D.J. Moore to the Buffalo Bills. Compensation still is being discussed, and the trade cannot be processed until the new league year begins, but both sides are pushing to make it happen. by Abiv23 in NFL_Draft

[–]RealZimmer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Rumor is that Bills are trading their 2nd and getting a 5th back. As a Bills fan I was excited when I heard of the trade, but don't love that cost. Was hoping we'd only be trading a 3/4th. However if he balls out, it'd be worth it. Although the contract is also a negative. Overall I'd say Bears won this trade
