I really like Brandon Allen. QB from Arkansas. Every season he improved at Arkansas. His junior and senior years he beat ole miss and took Alabama to the very end. He threw 30 TDs and only 8 INTs his senior season. He reminds me of a Ryan Fitzpatrick with a stronger arm. He's not afraid to sling the ball down field and would be playing in a similar offense of Greg Romans that he ran at Arkansas. If we can grab him in the 5th round I'd be ecstatic.

Sirius Football Heads' Mock Draft Picks For Buffalo
VaMilBill replied to R. Rich's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I would say Donta Hightower is a solid player but wouldn't call him really good. In 4 years he has 0 INTs, 2 Forced fumbles, and only 10 passed defensed. Not good at all. Not an impact player. That's something along the lines I would expect from Ragland. For a first round pick, that is not very good. . Now if we got him in the second round id be ecstatic for that, but to me that's a waste of a first rounder with the talent available at that point -
Sirius Football Heads' Mock Draft Picks For Buffalo
VaMilBill replied to R. Rich's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Thing about Ragland is he is big, strong and a smart player. But he isn't highly athletic. I would think he will be a good linebacker but I feel we could grab a similar player in the 2nd round. To me, first rounders should be pro bowlers at least 3-5 times in their careers (ideally). I can't see Ragland being that. I see him comparable to Donta Hightower.....a good linebacker, but nothing remarkable. -
Should Bills look at Dak Prescott as QB pick?
VaMilBill replied to Saxum's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Dak improved throughout college but he is nowhere near as sophisticated mentally for the pro game. His accuracy is shoddy, he has a good arm not a great one. One interesting stat from las year which scares the hell out of me. Against Alabama and ole miss, Dak was sacked a total of 16 times. That's a lot. Now some blame can be placed on the o line and credit given to the bama defense. But the ole miss defense was not very good last year. I know they had a good d line. Regardless, taking that many sacks shows he either a) doesn't know where to go with the ball of his initial read is covered or b) has poor pocket awareness Dak will not be a good pro. I think he'll be over drafted because people want the next Cam -
NFL Execs say Bills should get moving on new stadium
VaMilBill replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This conversation scares me every year. I love the Ralph. It's character is amazing and the sight lines in the stadium have always been good(for me at least). If we were to build a new stadium I would hope it would be next to the Ralph, without a dome. I love that the bills play in bad conditions in winter. With a dome, it ruins the game day environment in late October and on. -
I don't know if it's worth keeping him at 20 mil a year. At least based on how he played last year. If we keep him, we lose other key players and have to make room for his cap space. Therefore we add more pressure on Tyrod. One thing Tyrod did not impress me with last year is I never really saw the ability to run a 4 or 2 minute drill. Also, besides the Tennessee game, I'm not sure he ever lead a comeback win all season. Bills are right in not extending him. This year he needs to make this team a playoff team to get paid. Otherwise, we shouldn't pay out the nose for him cause that could ultimately put this team in a bad spot long term

Doug Marrone sighting... On "Louie"??
VaMilBill replied to BuffalothruMyVeins's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Marrone has a more pointed nose. But it's close besides that -
Best player, biggest bust and sleeper in the draft
VaMilBill replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Best- Myles jack Bust- nkemdiche or Paxton lynch Sleeper- Brandon Allen (I think he is very similar to Fitzpatrick, except he wins, and will be good in a couple years with the right team)...I think we should draft him -
Chris Ivory to Jags for 6m/yr +
VaMilBill replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
overpriced. Way too much for him. But I do think he will be a great change of pace back for yeldon -
Pats win SB because Brady's feelings are hurt
VaMilBill replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree. I hate Brady so much but he is for sure the best of all time. Peyton blew that title by choking in two Super Bowls and the playoffs several times. -
I'm happy to hear this right now about the Ralph. We will see if management is singing the same tune in 2020. I love the Ralph because it is a simple stadium. There is a place for me to get food, take a piss and watch the game (I actually prefer sitting in the upper decks cause of the birds eye view). As a bills fan I take pride in the minimalist stadium we have. Buffalo is a blue-collared town that gets by with what it has and I think the Ralph really represents that. To get a domed stadium would just show the bills are just trying to make more money instead of caring about what most fans want...at least that's my view
-
I was just joking about his pro bowl performance. He played terribly. No question. But if he played really well I don't think it would affect contract negotiations at all.
-
Can we use Tyrod's performance in the pro bowl as leverage for a cheaper deal on his upcoming contract negotiations?

Megatron to retire? (Update- he is done)
VaMilBill replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You all think he's a hall of famer? I'd say no. Wondering what you guys think -
Whew! I'm glad to see the Seahawks lose!
VaMilBill replied to Tipster19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm glad too. Only thing Buffalo has going for it is the 4 straight Super Bowls. Wouldn't want Seattle to ruin it -
What will get you excited for next season?
VaMilBill replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
One thing I'm excited about is our offense getting more consistent and better. Remember last year our defense pretty much won us 5 games by themselves. This year our offense helped out a lot more. Hopefully our defense improves and plays at a higher, more consistent level and we improve our special teams. I think we are definitely on the upswing -
That's the part that scares me with retaining Rex. If we hold on to him, he is gonna want his own personnel to run his defense. We will spend 2-3 drafts focusing on defense and mostly neglecting the offense (notably the o line and WRs). Rex will continue to be mediocre and eventually get fired. At that point terry would probably clean house, we would have old aging players and need a new GM and HC. We would then have to spend another 3-4 years revamping a 4-3 defense cause Rex's personnel would probably not fit a 4-3. To me, settling to keep Rex really could set us back almost a decade which is scary and kinda pisses me off that we may have to deal with ineptitude for that long
-
Rarely would I root for the bills to lose. But today I was hoping we would get steamrolled. I'm afraid that winning today helped Rex retain his job and big personnel moves are going to happen now. I believe the fallout could be comparable to Philly. That system is only used by chip Kelly and this system is only used by Rex. So when Rex is eventually fired in a year or two, we will have a very particular roster of players who can't play a 4-3. Rex is gonna stay with the bills and ultimately we will feel the effects for the next 5 years at least

If we want Rex to be fired, we gotta hope the bills just get blown out these next three weeks. It's gotta be so bad they have no choice but to fire him -

Glad I didn't go to the game. Watching this garbage on tv is bad enough
