I wonder what he thinks looking at the roster in place right now. We are obviously tearing it down to build it back up. I don't see McCoy in the picture long term. He might have two good years left, as he is pretty old.

Well journalist see their jobs and the organizations they work for as an important function in providing information to society. So bad mouthing an employer is a little different in the circumstance where a journalist thinks the organization isn’t fulfilling its duty as well as it should and letting the public know is part of that function. But..let’s be real sports writing and reporting is stretching all of the above a bit much. We’re not talking about Watergate Journalism and it’s a lot closer to entertainment weekly.
I was going to say this is sports journalism not actual journalism. Sports don't matter in the large scheme of things, is just entertainment.

Whatever man. Just because you work for someone doesn’t mean You're not entitled to an opinion or have to work under those conditions.
He takes his work as a profession it appears and sees his responsibility in a lot bigger view than employee and employer. I don’t particularly like his columns because they are a tad thin in my opinion. But I respect his view on what he did and why. Don’t do things in life if you have options, even if it makes you uncomfortable - do what you believe in and want and you’ll be more satisfied in life, even if the money isn’t great.
I have no problem with him leaving a job, but to bad mouth your current employer is just bush league.

Haven't gone to a bar to watch a bills game in a while, but I always liked hooligans in Webster. Those giant screens are sweet

Not contributing clicks to anything Jerry Sullivan is connected to ever again. I don't care what he says. He was bitter when he worked for the BN, he's bitter now and lashing out at anyone and everyone other than himself and his hackery for losing his role at the paper. I'm shocked.
Lol at taking losing his column as a slap in the face. Bro, you work for someone. When you boss tells you to do something different, you do it. You don't whine like a little school girl, you just do it.
As a journalist at a very small newspaper in northeast Iowa, what I wouldn't give to be the Bills or Sabres beat writer. People just don't understand how good they have it.

Wasn't he on our team and we just released him?
He is the sixth-ranked guard by PFF.

Who has been a WR coach for the past 30 years. He did have a few small stints as QB coach in the 80's at Southwest Louisiana and Western Kentucky...
I know. We can debate whether or not we have a good QB coach. But putting down Peterman because he can't mentor Allen is stupid, IMO. That's not Peterman's job. It is no QB's job, really. Favre refused to mentor Aaron Rodgers. Sometimes teams get lucky, and the veteran will help the young guy. Most times, it doesn't happen.

So from everything I read, young players seem to love him and he is a great teacher. He is able develop linemen. But he wants things done in very specific ways. Therefore, veterans who work with him ussually dislike hime, because he forces them to do it his way. The best example I could find was Eugene Monroe. This is what he said about Castillo:
"Juan likes to develop young players, because that's what he did in Philly," McKinnie said. "He is a good coach and he does help you with your technique, but he wants it done a certain way. My thing is everybody doesn't have the exact same talent or learn things the same way. I don't feel like you can coach everybody exactly the same, not everyone is going to react the same.
"Five individuals can't do the same thing instead of trying to make everybody a robot. You need to learn about your players and know their strengths and weaknesses and coach them that way. Juan is highly rated, but it takes time to adjust to what he's looking for."
Sounds like McDermont should have Juan take a couple education classes in the offseason if he retains him after this year. Would do wonders for his ability to coach. Everyone is an individual, and everyone learns differently. If Juan can't figure out how to get the best out of each player and develop them the way they learn best, he needs to go.

Last time I checked, we paid a QB coach to mentor our young QB.

It might be time for the Pro Football HOF to farm out the sculpting duties to someone else.
Look at Ray Rice's real head and face. Then look at the bust.
The size, proportions, and key facial features are all wrong, which is why the bust looks nothing like him.
The nose alone is from a different person.
It's really quite poor sculpting.
Well, considering that is a picture of Ray Lewis, I think you are correct. They look nothing a like.

I believe this years Bills will be 7-9, slow start with so many tough road games, strong 2nd half
That's probably the worst thing that can happen to us. We either need to be atrocious or make the playoffs again.
If we are 7-9 we get some middle of the road draft pick.

Never mind, it is.
It would be really cool if the Bills could be on the Amazon series: All or Nothing

Well only one of the four QBs selected is starting and thats Darnold. So the fact that he isnt starting is no big deal. Shouldnt Mayfield your number one overall pick have been able to beat TT who throws for 100 yards a game.
Allen did some things very well this preseason. The third game was a joke due to our joke of an o line.
I think they are all just jealous cause hes so damn handsome! Or so they tell me.
7I think the plan in Cleveland was always to sit Mayfield. Mayfield would have had to complete blow TT out of the water to gain the starting job. Just simply being better wasn't going to be enough for Hue Jackson to turn to the rookie.

Standard fair when I lived in Rochester was always pizza and wings from Mark's Pizzeria. Now that I live in northeast Iowa, idk. maybe find something on reddit and then just make it.
Man, do I miss Sundays in western NY.

Ravens released Perriman, a former first-round WR. We could bring him in. Although, he would have to make it through waivers.

There are still 15-20 cuts left to be made. They won't keep two punters.
All the cuts have already been made, they just aren't releasing names quickly, is all. I'm sure the league office already has all the moves.

Would love to see the numbers on that. Long term you're probably correct but In would highly doubt "most" 7th round picks are cut in their first year.
I would bet a majority of them are and then signed to practice squads. You are a bubble player the minute you're drafted especially since undrafted rookies are brought in immediately. When you draft someone in the fifth to seventh round you are basically saying, we want to guarantee ourselves a chance to see this kid in practice rather than hoping he signs with you after the draft.

Wow I thought Reilly was released for Streater, but we are saying Robert Foster is better than Reilly?
Speed kills. Foster is a rookie, so obviously they think they can develop him into a better player.

6-year, $135 million deal with $87 million guaranteed to stay with the Rams. Will keep him in LA through 2024.

Punter Shane Lechler was cut by the Texans. He could be someone we bring in for Ryan and Schmidt.
Scooby Wright was let go. He could be a nice depth piece at Linebacker. Former late-round pick that a good career at Arizona.

What do we draft with
atop5the first overall pick next year?There, fixed.
If we have the first overall pick unless there is some sure-fire hall of fame type OL. I bet we trade out unless Allen is a complete disaster. Some QB needy team will be looking to trade up and get someone. So we could end up with two firsts in 2020, maybe an extra second in 2019.
