Josh Allen’s tweets ‘ignorant behavior,’ says Buffalo Bills Hall of Famer Bruce Smith

‘”If this young man apologized and he is sincere and there has been no evidence of this behavior moving forward, than this man deserves to have a second chance,” Smith told USA TODAY Sports during a phone interview. “He needs to be mindful of that in making sure that he treats everyone with respect, and he has to understand that you’re in this game and everyone is treated equally, no matter race, religion or whatever kind of background you have. …”‘

NFL Draft 2018: Bills will soon learn if they won long game with new QB Josh Allen

‘McDermott was painfully transparent in his rookie year as coach about how he wanted his own man at the position. The Tyrod Taylor midseason benching fiasco put the Bills in position to miss the playoffs, and he and the team finally cut ties in the offseason with the trade of Taylor to the Browns. The Bills didn’t bite during the free-agency frenzy over Kirk Cousins and Case Keenum, settling on AJ McCarron to “compete” for the job in camp.’

Bills trade up to take Allen

‘Allen was widely considered as the quarterback with the most physical tools in this class. However, he had his struggles with mechanics and accuracy during his time at Wyoming.’

Bills move up again, take linebacker Edmunds

‘During his three seasons with the Hokies, Edmunds registered 213 total tackles, 112 solo tackles, one interception, three forced fumbles and 10 sacks. In his junior season, Edmunds was a finalist for the Butkus Award after he recorded 108 tackles and 5.5 sacks in 13 games.’

Bills say Allen needs to earn trust of teammates and fans

‘Head coach Sean McDermott echoed Beane’s sentiments saying, “It was very serious when we got word of it last night, this morning. It’s something that we went back and drilled down further on, again, in terms of digging back into some of the same conversations we had as we went through the process up ’til today.’

Edmunds brothers make NFL Draft history

‘Furthermore, the father of this trio, Ferrell, had an admirable NFL career of his own. He was a Pro Bowler and a two-time all-pro selection to boot with the Miami Dolphins and Seattle Seahawks.’

Joe B: Now it begins… Allen must prove Buffalo Bills, GM Brandon Beane right

‘What they’re getting is a big ball of clay to mold as they see fit. He offers up two elite traits — his incredible arm strength, along with an incredible contact balance that you don’t see often — much in the way that Ben Roethlisberger can bounce off would-be tacklers to keep plays alive. To be clear, I am not comparing him to Roethlisberger, just that that part of their game is similar.’
