  1. That's a reasonable take. Hodgins I was grading based on his time here and it took a bunch of injuries for Dabol to grab him up. It didn't happen early or anything and 31 other teams passed on Hodgins for the majority of the year, so I don't blame our talent evaluation that bad as many have. Didn't know fromm was still in the league but regardless it was a wasted pick.
  2. Knox came on late and was a TD machine late in the year. He's a legit TE , just needs more opportunity in the pass gm. Dawkins graded out as above average but nowhere near elite Saffold was awful and graded out as 1 of the worse OL in the game period. That's out of 200 ol. This is comical
  3. Ya I was thinking that this year. Only issue is you gotta pay them guys. A team isn't going to let a legit talent walk on a rookie deal
  4. Miller had a tremendous impact on the whole dl. Even the whole defense. Everyone looked much better on the line before his injury. The way he bends that corner is incredible and it takes pressure off everyone in the front 7 because how much attention he demands . If he gets back to form I think that solves the problem alone. Didn't Beane say he expects Von to be ready for week 1? That'd be a massive boost
  5. Yea it's wild how they picked up great talents at WR. I think Allen would be in the same position now with Jefferson, I don't know his personality off the field but I think Diggs bought a swagger to this whole offense off the field as well. Which has been important in what they built here as well as the relationship he has with Josh. I like that he gets in his face
  6. The 21 draft looks pretty bad. 3 out of 8 picks already off the team. Boogie and Doyle seem like busts. Hamlin was nice in the 6th. Hope Groot and Brown could take a step This last draft I'm just not sure. It could be a good - great one depending how Elam Cook Shakir and Benford pan out. Lot of potential
  7. Yup. Which makes it that much worse. That breakdown made me sick. Rushing 4 as well is just mind boggling as well. I'll just never understand how they came up with that strategy
  8. As of now Jefferson for exactly as you said but I think Diggs was crucial for Josh in 20 and 21 , just bringing that leadership and energy to the O was crucial in Allen becoming elite and we had legit chances at a SB every year he's been here
  9. In that situation, I hated the flag. I think intent is important and it wasn't malicious, he was just flying to Mahomes. Technically it was a penalty but I do find it absurd that a referee handed them 15 yards after 59+ min of play and a SB on the line. I'd be heated if that happened to us. Never seen this breakdown. Beyond infuriating and completely inexcusable. Unreal
  10. Watching Mahomes rarely throw more than 10 yards all year and watching our offensive philosophy is infuriating. It was the same with Dabol, I feel Dorsey just adopted that offensive philosophy and put his own stamp on it. We were still great in many categories because of 17 but man I'd love to see him with an elite play caller. I think he'd be MVP damn near every year. Mixing in dink n dunking in his gm and the os philosophy is a must. Frank Clark is also pretty elite. But I agree that their DL talent is fairly equal. They caused havoc and turnovers. It was sad to see really in comparison to our guys. Also watching them completely shut down Mixon who ran all over us was infuriating
  11. That was hard to watch. They bullied their ol on many drives, caused turnovers because of the pressure. It saddens me how much better they looked than our DL. On top of that KC had 3 or 4 rookies in the secondary. All about pressure. I just don't see how we fix our DL with all the investments. Von coming back to form would be massive , his twitchy bendable style was a pleasure to watch and certainly makes everyone around him better. He might be our only hope. Jones was also a nice addition and was missed. Still inexcusable how bad they were against 3 backups. If we can add a DE that has Jones impact for a reasonable contract that'd be huge. Good point. I'm not sold on Hodgins until he repeats it and it's not like Dabol picked him up immediately. It took injuries and a very thin wr corps to get him there but nonetheless I'd be excited for him. If I remember correctly he did have a good pre season and many including myself wanted him over Kumerow but 31 other teams decided not too pick him up so I'm still not convinced
  12. Lol. Ya you can certainly go lower. I mean he at least contributes somewhat and isn't inactive but very disappointing value pick.
  13. Ya I'm not a college guy at all. I watch cfb but I rely on you guys for prospects , as I'm nowhere near qualified to have an opinion. I don't even know who he is but if we can get quality on the ol or WR, like to see them be very aggressive It sucks because being idk cfb players like that ill rarely be posting until the draft
  14. Rd 1. Stefon Diggs - A+ no explanation needed. Elite #1 WR who now has 2 all pros as a Bill Rd 2. AJ Epenesa- C- . maybe less. For the 54th pick in the draft he has proven to be a JAG and has limited impact on a consistent basis RD 3. Zack Moss - F. not on the team anymore and was unimpressive since day 1 Rd 4. Gabe Davis - B- . For a day 3 pick he has contributed nicely. He def isn't the answer as an every down WR but is still a legit threat and nice piece to have. Good value Rd 5. Jake Fromm - F. Complete waste of a pick. Total bust Rd 6. Tyler Bass - A . One of the best kickers in the game. Great pick Rd 6. Isaiah Hodgins - D- . At least for us he was as he was never given the chance to touch the field. Kinda like the Wyatt Teller pick. Kid has been balling for another team. Rd 7. Dane Jackson- A . For a 7th rder he has been exceptional in the #2 CB role and even #1 role for part of this year. Great value. Great pick. Overall a solid draft. Probably a B overall , 6 of 8 picks were offensive in this draft counting Bass. We got 4 starters out of it, including Gabe, which likely changes. But nonetheless very solid. But the AJ and Moss picks were huge misses on day 2 and stick out the most. If we hit on 1 or both of them this would've been a great draft class How would yall rank this draft?
  15. Trade up if he is that coveted. The 1 OL we actually hit on was an all Pro. Wish we had Teller still.
  16. Same. I would be screaming feed 14 every game recently. There was a stat where Davis had a 50 something % catch rate between 1-9 yards. Diggs was high 80%, as was Jefferson. Shakir looks like he can be a problem in the slot going forward. He's a nice piece We need a reliable #2 and let Gabe go back to where he was. A role player. We're closer than that last performance but still need obvious help. I'd draft and sign a WR by rd 2 if there's 1 available
  17. I heard this live. The last stat about Buf not having a top 40 DL in pass rush win rate in the last 5 weeks is absurd . Groot he said was closest at 43. That's our biggest problem. Every team left has game wreckers on their DL. Which is mandatory for a SB run. We tried but failed epically in the draft. We tried on the ol too. 2 big contracts at LT C. 2 2nd day picks at T. Multiple vets. Just didn't work out. At the same time. We were 14-4 and first 3 losses were by 8 points. Could have went undefeated in the regular season but we all saw the issues down the stretch. We're a couple more impact players away from a SB. Have a generational talent at the most important position. Beane has to have an effective off season and sort this out.
  18. Yea they were effective all year just never consistent besides the Bears game. It was baffling at times
  19. Motor complements Cook way better than Hines. Ideally I'd like to keep both. I loved the idea of having a Hines/Cook package, which we saw for 1 game and never again . I believe we saw Cook/Hines for about 15 plays that day and for whatever reason Dorsey stopped that package. I always thought that was a package that could be deadly if used correct Hines had 4 offensive reps vs Cincy. Unacceptable. They were a very effective rushing team but failed to consistently establish a run gm. Dorsey just refused and alot of times was predictable. But Motor has proven to be a lifetime 4.6 ypc which is borderline elite and without looking I'm pretty sure Cook was 5.5 ypc in limited reps I believe this is a coaching issue way more than a talent/player issue
  20. I can see Big Ed going to another team and be a force but they obviously need other talent around him because he's usually invisible vs a double team. But he has pro bowl potential There was a drop off with no Von and even worse with no Jones. Shoot, consistency wise I'm kind of pulling more towards Jones than Oliver when you add in their cap hits and everything
  21. You're probably right as I'm sure I missed a few when they crowd the line on 3rd down typically. I still think he should be the 1st priority in terms of our own FAs. Beane loves to draft and develop and re sign. He and Milano were a great combo and looked alot better with the healthy DL. No Jones/Miller really showed our DL deficiencies
  22. Everytime he blitzes, which is rare, I feel Edmunds gets home or impacts the QB in a positive way for the D. Would love to see him be used in a more versatile role
  23. I fully agree with this. I'll say it again- develop our defense- we have multiple DL on a rookie deal. 2 DBs. I don't see a scenario where we become a truly elite defense but we're capable of being a good defense But make the offense as elite as possible. We have a generational talent at the most important position in the game and a top 3-5 WR in the gm. I say Beane needs to Flood this offense with all the top tier talent he can get. I never liked signing OBJ but I would gladly welcome him next year. Even Gronk for a year. Knox, Davis as a role player and Shakir as well give us some really good weapons and draft the nastiest OL you can get in the draft. Only good thing about this type of L is it'll lower expectations going forward. I hated the SB favorite hype since the off season With 17 and 14 in their primes, we're going to have a shot every year Go Bills 👍
  24. Cincy game was worse for me because I'm going to be pessimistic all offseason 13 seconds stung harder. For weeks. But I really believed the hype about this team especially after the Von signing. This L was worse because I bought into the hype and we got dominated. I had tons of hope and sadness after 13 seconds. Now I'm just hopeless about the future
  25. Great point. 1a on the offseason list is finding a legit 1b WR to take the double off Diggs Brown would have certainly had that impact Would have been the best 1-2 punch in the game With Davis and McKenzie being role players I do love Shakir as our future slot but we still need that true 2nd WR
