RBs 2023 Cook, aging Murray, Ty Johnson picked up as season starts RBs 2024 Cook, Davis, Ty Johnson with a year in the system 2024>>>2023 OL 2023 Dion, McGovern, Morse, Cybo (rookie), Brown OL 2024 Dion, Edwards, McGovern, Cybo, Brown 2024<<<<2023 I'm putting this all on the question mark that McGovern is at Center and Edwards is at Guard. Cybo at RG should be pretty awesome this year. Dawkins should be his usual reliable self. Brown is playing for a contract. There's a pretty good chance this group this year is better, but it's just unknown right now. TEs 2023 Kincaid (rookie), Knox (injured), Morris TEs 2024 Kincaid (year 2 & a focal point), Knox (healthy... hopefully), Morris &/or Davidson 2024>>>>>2023 WRs 2023 Diggs, Davis, Shakir, Sherfield, Harty WRs 2024 Shakir, Samuel, Coleman, Holins, ????????? 2024=====2023 I would argue 2024 is better, but benefit of the doubt they're equal until we see it. I mean... I get that Diggs was Elite & Davis was productive, but Samuel has been a more productive player (when healthy) over the course of his career. And if Shakir was the #3 last year and it's Coleman/Hollins we're considering as replaced production... I don't know who really things the 2 of them can't outproduce what Shakir did together. Who knows about WR #5, but seems inconsequential. Diggs >> Shakir Davis <<< Samuel Shakir << Hollins/Coleman Far, far less talent? You're being hyperbolic.

Did I say that? I absolutely don't believe that and didn't say it.

Shakir can play on the outside, too.

You disagree that Ty Johnson in year 2 and Ray Davis are an upgrade over Ty Johnson we acquired as the season started and 33 year old Latavius Murray who fell apart throughout the season? I think I said Samuel who would be our #2 WR would be the upgrade over Gabe who was our #2. But as for Hollins, look who was throwing him the ball over the span of his career. He's also potentially our #4 WR. WRs 1-4 this year >>>> WRs 1-4 last year.

Shakir is a 4.4 WR. He has the speed and skill to play on the outside. He's not just a slot WR. Multiple scouts and film buffs have pointed this out.

Josh Allen needs to take a step forward from what has already been pretty much a HOF career? Really? I just don't care about MVS. I was actually a bit terrified of him being a relatively significant part of our offense. If Hamler makes the team he can accomplish the speed threat portion that MVS was brought in for along with being an actual Special Teams contributor Seriously? Are you just being difficult? It's implicit that when I say "in 2024" I mean "than 2023." Better in 2024 than it was in 2023.

Khalil Shakir & Dalton Kincaid I can't believe the attitude around here. This is unreal. OL is same minus Morse plus McGovern at Center and Edwards at Guard. Possibly a downgrade at Center but I actually think Edwards is a better Guard. RB upgrade by a lot. Ty Johnson for the full year at RB3. Ray Davis upgrade over Murray. Cook... let's just hope he fixed his hands. WRs... well... what do we say? Diggs was All Pro 1st half last season but Houdini in the 2nd half. Gabe was just not very good... in fact I think he was largely responsible for our passing woes and multiple turnovers. Sherfield & Harty... really??? It might not even be Coleman who upgrades over Davis. It might be Hollins. But then one of those 2 has to upgrade on Sherf... oh yeah... there's still Curtis Samuel. Turf toe sounds like it's just been there for him and he's already played with it. Sounds like Shakir is ready to explode. Anyone like me planning on grabbing him in fantasy? Last we have Kincaid. It's weirdly the most talked about yet most underrated aspect of the 2024 Bills. Everyone believes he's about to get 100+ targets at least, right? Well... if we think Chiefs formula, how do you prefer MVS, JuJu, Pacheco, CEH, & Kelce over Shakir, Samuel, Cook, Davis & Kincaid? That's without Coleman & Hollins, obviously. That was the crew Mahomes won league MVP with while putting up gaudy numbers after losing Tyreek Hill. I'm sorry. Lots of questions this year. But I'm more excited about this season with the "good vibes" than is apparently reasonable. Injuries suck, but they're happening early. And every team gets them

That's weird. This is the most interesting Bills team in years.

Just for reference, Milano ran a 4.67 to Andreeson's 4.65 40 yard dash. Milano had a 35 inch vertical to Andreeson's 38 inch vertical. Milano had a 10.6 inch broad jump to Andreeson's 10.2 inch jump. Milano benched 24 reps to Andreeson's 32. Milano weighed 223 lbs to Andreeson's 240 lbs.

Not reading all replies, but the concensus is that Andreeson is pretty darn impressive, right?

Is anyone else outside the WNY area tuned into NFL Network expecting the scheduled Bills game but seeing a Barry Sanders documentary?

-The Buffalo Bills have the #1 offense in the NFL -Von Miller gets double digit sacks -Khalil Shakir puts himself into "Elite WR" discussion -Josh Allen wins league & Super Bowl MVP

We have Josh Allen. The answer is yes

Shavers also dropped a pass on Saturday

Nope, but that means he's not taking steps back, unlike... Hamler dropped a pass and muffed a kickoff. The latter is his ticket on this team and you know how McDermott loves his Special Teams. MVS furthered his reputation as he dropped an absolute gimme of a pass yesterday (can we just call him Clifford Franklin???)... plus he doesn't play Special Teams, unlike Claypool.

Did anyone mention the 2 most obvious winners from yesterday? I'm guessing yes... but I don't want to look through 10 pages, so just in case: 1) McDermott hiring John Perry to take care of challenges. Won both and neither looked from the broadcast like they should have been challenged. 2) Chase Claypool. If he can get healthy is there a single fan who prefers MVS over him??? Plus Hamler and Shavers didn't do themselves any favors yesterday with drops. I hope he can get on the field this week. I'm starting to prefer Isabella over MVS and maybe Hamler if it came down to it.

Steveson looked like he belonged on an NFL field in his first EVER live football reps.

Hollins is a roster lock. Read/listen to any camp report summarizing TC so far. He's ahead of MVS.

Yes

We all love him. I don't think he was wrong in his recent interview with Kay Adams when she asked Tre how he'd think Bills fans would react if he intercepted JA17 this season. Regardless, Jordan Rodrigue (Beat reporter for the Rams) was on NFL daily (she's a consistent guest) this week and said Tre is doing "great" in camp. Just figured I'd post it for anyone else who might get a warming of the heart by this bit of info.

That's freaking AWESOME!!!! I hope he's doing well at his unbelievable age!

Soooo... all of the positive we're hearing about Elam in contrast to the last couple years is basically because we lost Diggs??? Was Elam strictly going against Diggs the last 2 years??? I ask because he's reportedly making plays against multiple WRs this TC.

Why would that be more possible? Elam was a 1st round CB. And it's not like he was overdrafted. We drafted him in the 1st round late and he was pretty universally considered a 1st/2nd rounder. I'm not even mentioning the fact that he's a man press corner transitioning to zone... oh wait I just did.

Elam playing lights out. Ingram having a great camp. Tons of reports this UDFA Lovely looks like he belongs. It looks like Hardy is making plays in the secondary and may be locking up the KR position. Douglas is a beast with natural instincts in the secondary. Seems he'd make a great FS. With safeties going down like flies and our depth CBs--particularly the former 1st rounded-- playing really well, why wouldn't we do this? ...unless Hyde has already agreed to rejoin the team when camp is over.
