  1. LMAO! Most people were wrong about Mahomes, but you want to bring that up to counter a point about how silly it is to fixate on Worthy because Bill clearly had other plans? But ohhhh you got me good lmao...I was one of the many people who didn't know Mahomes was gonna be one of the GOATS. But hey, I guess I suffer with that rare pesky problem of not being able to accurately predict the future 100% of the time...shame on me.
  2. I’m just saying the Worthy thing is a total non-story given we weren’t taking him and KC likely still gets him if we don’t make the trade. Worthy to Chiefs makes sense, it never at any point made sense for the Bills. So unless people expect us take guys we don’t want that don’t fit just to block KC, then there is nothing to this story unless people want to force it. It’s all good, it’s just a silly premise IMHO to force the KC narrative about a player we didn’t want and that KC very likely still gets if we don’t make the trade.
  3. Literally none of this has anything to do with Worthy and the Bills. We clearly didn’t want Worthy…and if we don’t take him, Chiefs almost certainly still get him. You are just holding on to a non story because you have KC PTSD. In other words, in your mind the correct move was the Bills to take a player they didn’t want and wasn’t a good fit just so KC doesn’t get him basically. Because UNLESS we did that there was NOTHING else to insure the Chiefs didn’t draft Worthy. So again, who cares. Coleman has had one of the best camps of any rookie of any position in the league. But hey, keep fixating on a player we passed on who made no sense for the needs of our team that has already been hurt in camp and has already been utterly destroyed at the LOS by his own teammate rather than guy we took who has already put up one of the best camps in the league and scoring rave reviews from on lookers, staff, media, and players.
  4. Why though? It’s dumb, Worthy never at any point in any reality made any sense of any kind for the Buffalo Bills. There is no rational reason he should have been our pick. In KC, they had Hollywood Brown and Rice as well as Kelce. He gets to go there as a skinny twig who only needs to be a complimentary piece, not a WR1 where he faces a high chance to struggle as a WR1 as he is gonna get destroyed by press coverage. Bills needed both a WR1 and more size in our WR room. Only people who thought the Bills should take Worthy are the people who think the 40 times are the holy grail of WR evaluation…the same 40 time he manipulated to put up that time by cutting even more weight just to try and break a record at the underwear Olympics but is not the real speed he will play at in the NFL.
  5. LMAO…21 pages about a KC Chief rookie…isn’t this supposed to be a Bills board? In all seriousness, who cares at this point about Worthy? What is even sillier is Keon has had by far the more impressive camp this far and it’s not even close. This is like “Wrong Josh” all over again where people just can’t let go Bills drafted someone different than they wanted.
  6. Puts him starting early in real doubt, which is fine and expected anyway
  7. Ok but the analogy was the least important part of my comment… point was it’s early.
  8. Way too early…I mean Nathan Peterman was chosen to start over Allen in camp.
  9. You want to take our best CB, which is our thinnest position maybe on the roster, and move him to S? No disrespect, but that is a hard pass for me
  10. Top `10 is a lock to be all QB's Top 3 would for sure be: 1 - Mahomes 2 - Allen 3 - Stroud Then it gets more eye of the beholder after that but I think the next group of 4 would be a lock to be these guys 4 - Burrow 5 - Herbert 6 - Lamar 7 - Love Then the next 3 to round out the top 10 would likely be: 8 - Caleb 9 - Dak 10 - Goff/Tua/Trevor/Richardson
  11. Hill is not a good comp, Hill is a tank and very strong, he is just short. Worthy is a stick figure, they are not at all the same players or frames. The only similarity is they both run fast, but it stops there.
  12. I haven't heard any of that and in fact lots of references of him beating guys all camp. So not sure where you are hearing that because none of the people attending camp reporting on it have mentioned he is struggling with anything.
  13. LOL...Keon has been the star of camp with highlights coming out pretty much everyday. Yet we got some people who have been down on Keon not discussing any of those plays but instead wanting to argue about one maybe being out of bounds? Ok And who cares anyway? It was still an impressive clip showcasing his ability to go get the ball and control it through the ground, if he was out of bounds then its more on where Allen put the ball than Keon anyway. But hey...if nit picking this one play amongst a reel of highlights makes you feel better about pessimistic views, then do your thang
  14. I know die hard Lions fans here in LA who still call him "Goof" instead of Goff. Its crazy to me...and for them to list him as a "miss" is just as absurd as some random exec calling Allen "overrated".
  15. Bills have not lost by more than 6 points in their past 40 games, which is now an NFL record and counting. I just thought that was pretty impressive as I wouldn't have thought that. For as much flak as Allen and especially McD can get sometimes, they both win a lot of games and when they don't they are still right there in the game. But I didn't post this to debate the merits of Allen or McD (as I am sure this will trigger some McD people lol) or anything...when I saw it made me just appreciate more what a difference it is now compared to the dark years where games were often looking bleak or out of reach by halftime. And I think some of that just gets lost in all the bickering and arguing over trivial things around here sometimes. And it is yet another reason that despite a lot of changes on both sides of the ball, there is still reason for us to be the favorites in the East and room for optimism around here. #GOBILLS
  16. Anyone watch this past weeks episode? There is a scene where they are contemplating what to do in the draft...move up for a QB or not. And in this clip, they looked at all the first round QB's over the past 10 years drafted to determine how many were a "hit or miss". Couple interesting things came from that...they had Goff as a miss while they had Daniel Jones and Kyler Murray as "hits" LMAO. Goff has played in a SB and multiple Championship games and been a lot better QB than either of those 2 guys for one. Second interesting thing was after they looked at all the first round QB's that "hit or missed" the past 10 years, they said to that list "Not a lot hit". So then the GM asks Daboll "What do you take from that Dabs?" and Dabs seems to think he asked "Who" he would take from that list...and he says "Stroud". Then someone else in the room off camera (as camera was still on Daboll) says "or Josh". Daboll didn't react to it, but to be fair, they quickly cut to a new scene at that point too. Just found this clip interesting...how they can label Goff a "miss" just was stunning. I mean I am not saying Goff is top 5...but he is far from a "miss". Then Daboll throwing out Stroud over both Mahomes and Josh was another little surprise. This is the same team that gave Daniel Jones a bunch of money though lol, so guess I shouldn't be too surprised
  17. I remember when so many people kept arguing with me that both the Giants and Broncos were "going to take a QB" when it was clear as day leading up to the draft Giants were taking Saquan and Broncos were not taking a QB and were instead all in on Chubb trying to replicate what they had that last season they won a SB with Manning where Manning was the 31st ranked QB in the NFL that year but their D and Run game carried them to a SB. They had just signed Keenum to be that game manager stable guy while they tried to elevate their very good D to elite with Chubb. Now...that just goes to show you how STUPID both the Giants and Broncos were because despite it being fairly obvious neither were taking a QB ahead of the draft, people still thought there was no way they would not take a QB...because they SHOULD have been thinking QB in what was being seen as one of the best QB drafts in the past decade at that point. While I was supremely confident both were going Saquan and Chubb...it was still mind numbingly stupid to not go QB for both of those teams.
  18. I loved the pick as I had him as my 3rd best RB in the whole draft. Love his game...however, saying he is the most sure bet to be a meaningful contributor from this class completely overlooks how impressive Keon has been and considering Keon is on a clear path to starting and playing more snaps. Again, LOVE Davis, but Keon IMHO wil more likely be a bigger rookie contributor year 1 as Davis splits time with Cook.
  19. Actually...Beane, McD, Allen, and Brady have all talked up praise on him without being prompted. In fact, that is why a reporter probably asked Brady about Shavers because its been the team talking about him a lot that got the media interested enough to even ask questions.
  20. At least your acknowledging the extreme and inaccurate language you were using yesterday now, which is a start. But now we have this signing...which has literally zero to do with Bishop or how they feel Bishop is progressing. A safety got hurt at camp, so they signed one to have another camp body until Edwards gets back. This literally happens every single year...injury in camp, if they are short on bodies they bring someone in for the interim. He has a long road to make the roster over Rapp, Bishop, Edwards, and Hamlin unless one of them just bombs in camp or gets a more serious injury. To assume or pretend this signing has anything to do with Bishop, his development, or progress is just completely inaccurate and would be an example of confirmation bias. In fact, Bishop is getting snaps with the first unit because they like where he is at. Other rookies, guys like Sedrick who a lot of people felt could mix into battling to start week 1 at C is still running mostly with the 3rd group. They don't give rookies time with the 1's unless they feel they deserve and are ready for those reps because they are legitimately competing. So you gotta get off this narrative that Bishop is behind, a bust, or in danger of being one just because they have not decided the Safety battle a week into camp.
  21. I think saying they have concerns is reading too much into it...this feels more like a temporary replacement while Edwards is out to have another body for camp and likely won't make the active 53 as the 4 S they will go into the season with are Bishop, Rapp, Edwards, and Hamlin most likely.
  22. Me personally, I always felt Hollins was going to have a bigger role than people thought. I saw him play a lot when he was a Raider and he is a legit WR...but it is all the dirty work he is so good at and wants to do that made me feel he was going to play a bigger role than people think. The kind of role that doesn't always show up on the score board either. Ability to block as a WR is important on this team and it is the one void left by Davis that needed to be filled. And of course there is his ST abilities too. I personally thought MVS was a guy who would be fringe to make this team, his inconsistent hands was never something I saw sticking here. I just thought it would be Claypool that would make him expendable, didn't expect that to be Shavers...who is actually making both MVS and Claypools paths to the roster harder.
  23. This is also true...and always true TBH...however, the things that makes the buzz on Tyrell stand out as more interesting is 2 fold: It isn't so much camp reports, he is getting specifically mentioned and praised by Beane, the coaches, and Allen. And they are backing that up by giving him snaps with the first unit even though we have no injuries to open up those reps. He is getting them because they feel he has earned him. That is a big sign of his stock rising because while every camp someone makes some plays or gets some observer buzz, its not very often that person is going on to see first team reps, often not even 2nd team reps.
