Why can't McKenzie handle both?

Given his value on STs, I think that he's the odds-on favorite as the 6th WR (McKenzie is the 5th). Hodgins would benefit from a year on the PS.

Nice piece in TheAthletic on Kumerow's journey: https://theathletic.com/2748457/2021/08/03/wr-jake-kumerows-journey-from-aaron-rodgers-secret-weapon-to-the-do-it-all-riser-of-bills-camp/ My favorite quote:

I think the early buzz was about Hodgins, so Kumerow was overlooked or forgotten to some extent, despite the fact that Hodgins hasn't played an NFL game. One of the two will make the 53, and Kumerow is the odds on favorite because of his experience and ST ability. I don't think it will be all that difficult to get Hodgins on the PS since he's a 7th round draft pick that hasn't played an NFL game, and he needs that experience. I think the WRs will be Diggs, Sanders, Beasley, Davis, McKenzie, and Kumerow, with Hodgins and Stevenson on the PS.

Don’t forget josh’s puppy...

That's why they will make the playoffs, he will get them there.

Yeah, I think they will easily win the NFC East.

Must have been due to the article on Whaley burning EJ into my mind...Hah!

Looking forward to seeing how the young guns pan out. While there isn’t a Garrett or Young, the whole will be better than the sum of its parts. A pass rush going forward of Groot, Ed, Boogie, and AJ will be tough to stop.

Yes, this is about making a move and adding someone this year.

I agree it makes no financial sense, but they have shown they will part ways with anyone who is not buying into the process. That's the point I was trying to make--if he is in the doghouse with McBeane, then I think they'd certainly part ways, and now it's no longer a negative cap hit.

I guess we'll find out how they feel about Star too? While releasing him doesn't save much money ($500K), it's no longer a negative value.

Don't know if this estimate is still relevant?

Sure enough, the Bills play the Bucs and Brady after a Monday night game.

Maybe it's all about Brady and not Bill?

Thanks for posting, especially since there was also a video analysis of Epenesa's development over the season in the video queue that I hadn't seen before. 👍

There is a 10-year window with Josh, no need gamble on next year.

I recall Bill Parcells saying he liked to run draws and screens early in a game to get the D-line thinking about them, and providing that little bit of hesitation. Same idea.

There were two fowls on the play, one on each side, so they re-played the down. On the next play, Hodges had a clear run to the goal line, but Wildgoose chased Duck down...

Charles Davis has great things to say about him too. He was on ONeBillsDrive today. Starts about 13 minutes in. Before Brown was drafted by the Bills, he predicted he would start at least 10 games this season. https://www.buffalobills.com/video/charles-davis-breaking-down-the-2021-bills-draft-class

I agree with you assessment, but would also second that the Colts are right there too. Reich will maximize Wentz's potential.

Basham seems like he can be what the Bills had in mind with Jefferson, someone they can plug in anywhere along the line in passing situations.

I'm looking forward to seeing how this draft plays out in the 2023 season. Can't give Beane an A, as it's a draft for the future; but I do like that strategy a lot. Josh Allen is going to keep this team at the top for the next 10 years, and Beane is building a team for the long term, not to simply go for it in 2021.

I can see Brown and Rousseau lineup over the center in FG blocking duty.

Yes, replace the Tongan with Tonga!
