THE ROCKPILE REVIEW - The Brandon Beane Era Begins
Billzgobowlin replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is a very good point and needs to be highlighted. We will not become a better team with tanking. The only way we get a franchise QB is if our scouting department finds one. You can draft Peyton Manning, Alex Smith or Jamarcus Russell 1st overall. The "best" qb in the class doesn't mean you have your qb. -
THE ROCKPILE REVIEW - The Brandon Beane Era Begins
Billzgobowlin replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Cleveland has stockpiled picks for the past three years. The important thing is what can we do with the assets. -
Eric Wood the logical next one to go?
Billzgobowlin replied to Mountain Man's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The only reason people are talking about a tank is because of Watkins. Watkins was in the last year of his contract and hasn't shown he can stay healthy, they just eliminated a tough decision and Sammy might not stay anyways. If all we got was a 2nd for that it would have been better than losing Sammy for nothing. Not sure much about Gaines but we will see what happens with him too. -
Josh Rosen's Comments on academics and football
Billzgobowlin replied to HumbleAndHungry's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Gee I hope we don't draft him. I get the feeling he won't even be first round material. He has a long delivery and doesn't look like he surveys the field too well. -
Bruce Smith now a Browns Fan :(
Billzgobowlin replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
There is a bit of symmetry for Bruce since he was a DE drafted first overall. I am pretty sure that is his connection. I have no problem with it. -
Sherman says players should strike!
Billzgobowlin replied to Ed_Formerly_of_Roch's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He might be right but I have lost any respect for him since he tried to take out a kicker's leg. It is obvious this is only for Richard Sherman since that is the only person he cares about -
Buffalo Bills: 2016 vs 2017
Billzgobowlin replied to ChanOverChin's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think offense is the same as far as talent, the defense is a slight downgrade because we are losing depth and replacing Gilmore with a rookie. I think we will perform better though with a better defensive scheme and organization. I hope we are solid on offense, not too confident. -
Watkins wants to get paid more
Billzgobowlin replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I understand your side but the owners do take all the risk especially in the NBA plus it's not like their only overhead is the players. They have promotions, ticket sellers, parking lot attendants, maintenance and upkeep, janitors, security, etc. Also this is not the only source of income as some get endorsement deals. I am not fully against the players getting paid more though. If they pay more though they need to figure out how to adjust the salary cap. The Warriors are going to be slammed in a year and you look at a player like Otto Porter that if the Wizards want to keep him they have to 25 million a year with what a $125 million cap? All that for a 12 point a game player. -
I will say this about Marrone he didn't have a lot of injuries when the conditioning was good. Jauron, Gailey and Rex had a ton of injuries and didn't have discipline. I think we will see injuries go down this year
-
I liked Mike as much as anyone but the overvaluing of what he meant to this team is silly (same with Hogan although we should have gotten something for Hogan). Mike is a backup RB which if Williams stays healthy probably Jonathan would have beat him out anyways. He joins how many RBs in New England? They have Ola too which has some starts on the right side. Glenn will be back and OT becomes an instant strength

Who is your surprise cut?
Billzgobowlin replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My potential surprise cuts would be Henderson because he doesn't stay healthy and has issues with the good stuff to where he keeps getting suspended and Charles Clay because he makes to much and shows lack of production. Clay could be a difference maker or just a bad mistake of last years coaching staff. I know we are upside down with his contract but it might just be best to move on. -
I am not saying we should bring Byrd in but the Saints were an awful defense and have been for years. I think Byrd might have been a casualty of poor scheme and relying on offense too much.

LeSean Mccoy number 27 on nfl top 100
Billzgobowlin replied to Gunsgoodtime's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This list is a joke. Kyle Williams is not as good a player as Tyrek Hill? That dude had about 10 plays all year. Cordy should be in there as well Also if JJ Watt and Jordan Reed are on there, there is no reason Watkins doesn't get a spot. Give me Watkins over Jordan Reed any day. -
So....Eric Decker? Signs w/ Titans
Billzgobowlin replied to K D's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
For a running team that has McCoy I would say yes. Missing Sammy takes a dynamic player out of our offense but adding Decker doesn't solve that if Sammy goes down, Maclin might have. I think we might stay away from Decker. -
Jeremy Maclin (Agrees to 2 year deal with Ravens)
Billzgobowlin replied to BillsDiehard's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
We have a number one and drafted a number two. Maclin signing at these two places makes sense based on being able to get on the field. Chances are he wasn't up to the task to beat out better receivers. -

Jeremy Maclin (Agrees to 2 year deal with Ravens)
Billzgobowlin replied to BillsDiehard's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You are right. No E10 gate at BWI and the E concourse is international flights -
Seems very similar to the Dareus piece about a culture change. I wonder if Gillislee will be alright with not playing a few weeks in a row and finally getting the call to carry the ball 30 times in a game, seems to me RBs would hate that.
-
Yes we did, it ended up in Cleveland along with the other pick that we used to draft Watkins. Literally two first rounders were traded for Watkins pick not sure how you can spin that. Even if you don't agree with that you can say a statement that Dareus cost us a first round pick and it would still be true. Watkins cost us two first rounders. Again Watkins did only cost an additional first round pick than we would have used to draft someone but he does have a value of two first rounders because that is what he cost and he was traded for to us for two first round picks. You can argue how that's not the case but you would be wrong
-
Let me see if this makes sense... we traded our pick in '14 and '15 for the right to the #4 pick in #14 which is what we used to select Sammy Watkins. As all of this is true we traded two first round picks and in return we only got Sammy Watkins. While we technically didn't have a net loss of two draft picks Sammy was worth two first round picks as opposed to one. Might be semantics but he did cost us two first round picks as opposed to staying put and picking our normal pick and that player costing only one pick. You are correct that the net loss is one first round pick but two things are true we traded two first round picks and that is what Sammy cost the Bills.

Mike Williams getting behind
Billzgobowlin replied to CircleTheWagons99's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Has there ever been a Mike Williams that has excelled in the NFL? Man that is a bad list right now. I hope for his sake he turns around the trend. We have: OT from Texas WR from USC WR from Syracuse and now WR from Clemson
