What this kid does in college doesn’t necessarily mean it’ll translate to the pros. I’ll give him all the credit in the world for what he’s accomplished up to this point. But again, everyone thought Manziel was so great too. And like this kid, proclaiming how great he’s gonna be wasn’t any different than Manziel. On the the flip side, adding him to what we already have would make for one hell of a LB core for sure if he is what he says he is

Manziel did the same exact thing, kid needs to lose the diva attitude.

I can't set any kind of expectations such as playoffs, that's not to say I don't wanna be proven wrong. But I think it's a bit too much to ask of Allen to make that kind of jump in year 2. If he can show some kind of gradual improvement, I'll take that. But playoffs or bust? That to me is way premature

It's great to hear those kind of comments from Beane. As for AB, I do believe he did turn down the Bills for the reasons that are being tossed around from ignorance, But I also believe Brown is smart enough to keep his mouth shut about that too, and a lot of that is because of the signings the Bills made. Part of me wants to believe that maybe he thinks he was premature in his assessment of this organization. Personally I didn't want him here anyway, didn't want Allen's development in jeopardy.

Suh is not exactly what you would call a move for the future for pretty much any team, but especially this team. For a guy with the kind of talent he’s shown, it’s kinda sad he’s been reduced to jumping from team to team

My issue with Clowney and I realize this may rub some folks the wrong way is that to me, he hasn’t lived up to his overall draft status. This guy was a number 1 overall pick IIRC and quite honestly, I’m not so sure he’d be worth surrendering a high pick for

Another poster made a thread about feeling sorry for the Dolphins, I scoffed at that notion til I read this lol. Nothing smells worse than burnt phish

OMG wow, lmao dude nailed Matt Miller

Wasn’t Lawyer Milloy signed with that bunch as well?

That’s the last thing I would worry about since Rex Ryan is long gone. I would trust McDermott is more than capable of getting the best out of Clowney compared to Ryan

Jets got basically shunned by Paradis as well. If they flop on signing Bell, this off season will leave a sickening taste in Jet fans’ mouths

I find it funny that probably both the Jets and Dolphins were laughing at us believing AB didn't wanna go to Buffalo. Now as it stands, Barr wanted nothing to do with the Jets, Paradis signed with Carolina, Bridgewater turns down more money from Miami to stay in NO. LOL what a day

I think you may be right there, I can't really remember. Seems like it was so long ago

With all this being said, didn’t Dri Archer do the same thing to us?

Well let’s hope he still holds a grudge against Gase. More motivation to beat another division rival

Not a skeptic per se, keeping my optimism in check for now. I will admit he had a better season than I expected given that our O line wasn’t that great. That being said, you can’t help but wonder how he would have fared if he had the O line Taylor had.

I personally think if the Titans took Philly up on their offer, Mariota would have been in a much better place right now. Tennessee was the worst place for Mariota, and both him and the Titans would have benefitted more if the Titans pulled the trigger on that trade

Being from Tennessee myself, I look at it as if that’s how it is then the Titans also inherit the blown 32 point lead in 93 against the Bills. All of a sudden, their “miracle” doesn’t seem like much of a miracle any more

Ok maybe they’re better, but to deny they bent the rules a bit if not a lot is quite one sided, not to mention confusing. If they were that good, crossing the lines they crossed shouldn’t have been necessary. Deflategate was a joke? The joke was not even mentioning pulling of Brady’s texts from his service provider since there was an actual hearing involved. The NFL saved that franchise by doing as little as possible. They may be good, but there’s also arrogance the goes along with that, especially Bellichek. They got more than enough as it is now imo

Would liked to have had Cooper, but the key weakness in the passing game is the OL. Not sure giving up our first round pick for Cooper would have been wise. Cooper or no Cooper, Allen would still be running for his life

I do agree with you on the running hurting his development part, but a lot of this can be attributed to the lack of surrounding talent. I would much rather see him pass more, god knows we don’t need Tyrod 2.0, but until he gets a better OL, we’re gonna see a lot of running

I fall under realist. Passing judgement on either good or bad games he’s had is premature. Like everyone else, I praise the good and hope he can learn and adapt with the bad. Really wished he beat the Dolphins tho. Even tho he didn’t, I saw enough to know the phish are gonna be cellar dwellers for quite a long time. Right there with the Pats when they finally do their rebuild

That was probably advice from McDermott to not speak about that to reporters, which was good advice to give. If that was the case, props to McD for putting out a fire before one started

The thing I find ironic is that those saying Allen’s velocity doesn’t mean anything but Peterman’s lack of velocity basically defined how bad he was. I don’t get it

Ok here’s the problem I have, and it’s not Adrian Peterson I have the problem with. The problem I have is the people complaining about spanking a child. Ok, I got spanked with a belt, switch, toy race car track, just about whatever. Now the extent of what Peterson’s tactics were the first time was way too much. But as far as using a belt? I have zero issues with it. Because it seems to me that not using a belt today is part of the problem: Growing up, I never saw or even heard of kids killing other kids and teachers in school, how many times has that happened recently? There’s what’s called right to parent in the law itself. I don’t in any way advocate child abuse, using a belt is not the same. But back to Peterson, I don’t have any issues with him using a belt for corporal punishment, but the line is drawn there.
