  1. Newhouse let 8 sacks last year Bodine let up 1 sack For the curious few!
  2. Well ESPN doesn't tell you how good he is/isn't, therefore he must suck. The reality is Mason Rudolph is a legit 1st round prospect.
  3. 2 firsts, 2 seconds, 2 thirds in next years draft. They don't need to tank to get #1 overall. Finish 8-8 and grab your QB.
  4. Hey gamers, here ishow our beloved Bills are broken down in terms of individual ratings. Ratings Before everyone freaks, EA as a whole lowered ratings across the board over the last few years. Where 95+ was elite and 85+ was pretty average, now low 80's are average and 90's are elite. They really dropped pass defense and OL rating across the board while boosting the athletic ratings for QB's and really dropped the ratings of K/Ps. Outside of Woods (73?!) and Cogs RBL rating, I'd say the roster is very fair. Anyone planning on getting Madden 18? I think I'm sticking with 17 for a long while... the franchise has just been in strong downward spiral that would make Blake Bortles blush. I've always been an offline guy, and unless you're willing to spend hours in the settings/sliders menu the days of fair AI and realistic gameplay is long over. On a side note, I've always found adjusting the ratings week in and week out to be rather fun, and I've always enjoyed creating the rookies. If anyone who is sticking with 17 is interested, I may start uploading my rosters. I'd say the Bills are EXTREMELY updated and fair, and many of the offseason roster moves from around the NFL are updated. Some teams even have other rookies (Mostly 8-10 top prospects).
  5. 4 days in to his second training camp after missing a year? Seems like a rational thought.
  6. Interesting quote from our DC in article by CB on who will be the starting LB's. Always figured whoever loses at MLB will split time with Alexander at SAM. I always felt Preston Brown was a decent LB, and seems like fans have written off how good Reggie Ragland can be in any scheme. With Hodges in the mix, this should be a fun summer.
  7. I don't want it to happen! Hopefully he picks the Defense up.
  8. When this season is all said and done, who will be the: Team MVP: Offensive breakout star: Defensive breakout star: Special teams breakout star: Most improved: Most declined: Rookie of the year: Best 2017 Free Agent: Worst 2017 Free Agent: Bounce Back Player: (Guy who had a bad 2016) "You still got it": Bonus: Who sets a single season Bills record OR what Bills Season record is broken as a team?
  9. Ready for this? Hodges Jr, he still hasn't beaten out Humber, haven't heard of him running with the first team at all. I can see one of the CB's like Wright or Charles or Corey Brown. Schmitty wouldn't be a huge shocker, we got the #1 punter in the draft.
  10. To be fair, McD has gotten into plenty of brawls https://youtu.be/_V-rCP-UeeY
  11. It truly cracks me up that Ragland is considered "overweight," "nonathletic," and "lazy" for zero reason at all. Last year a picture at some college game where he was at the coin flip made him look fat, and the whiners/bashers ran with it and he's been complained about ever since. At the combine, his "hand held" 40 time was 4.62, while the "electronic" 40 time was 4.72, Either is plenty fast for a MLB.
  12. That's an absolute load of crap. Fun fact, he never actually failed a drug test. Immature idiot, sure, but quitter? Absolutely not.
  13. Funny thing is he ran a 4.78, that's pretty slow for a WLB
  14. Shaq a great addition, hope the fans haven't written him off. I think 8 sacks and a handful of tackles for loss is fair. Dude was a dominant college DE who Rex put at OLB. His first sack was on Tom Brady. Healthy, scheme that fits him, position that he's dominate at, and real NFL coaches.
  15. I always laugh when fans think a player can't excell in multiple schemes. Goodness, how many has Dareus been a beast in? All of them? Shaq Lawson will be a great 43 LE, like how he was projected coming out of college. Ragland is athletic and will be fine as a MIKE or, if need be, a SAM. Hell, he can probably play WILL in a pintch. These are professional athletes on our Defense who now have decent coaches. Brandon Spikes could probably find a small role to be successful in (34 OLB wasn't one, how crazy...)
  16. Thing about Byrd is he was never considered overly athetic in terms of speed and agility, and today's NFL is built around speed. If he has lost a step, he may go unsigned into the season.
  17. Kid had 2 picks, 2 sacks, 3 stuffs, and 7 pass breakups this past season. No doubts he wins the #1 FS gig. Makes me think of Da'Norris Searcy. Ok when it comes to pass coverage, just don't let him go 1-on-1 with a WR. Will be a benefit in the run game. Boston has superior athleticism than Searcy, giving him more potential and a higher ceiling.
  18. He's 205 pounds, known as more of a physical guy. You wonder if he can gain 10-15 pounds and be that hybrid SS/WLB.
  19. #3/#4 guy on the depth chart, nice post draft signing
  20. It'll probably be Humber vs a 5th round pick vs a June 1st cut. We still got time, we've filled 3 monster holes thus far and still have 3 more draft picks (5th, 5th, 6th) No question, I thought for sure he'd start at SAM. He shows monster flashes of being an instinctual player who's great vs the run. He understand pass coverage and positioning, just lacks the athleticism. We've got top notch LB coaches now, if they can't get more out of PB then we've probably seen his best play. Interesting, Rags is also MUCH better vs the run than Kiko.
  21. Thomas, Lattimore, and Howard will likely be top-10 and off the board when we pick. If this is true, Corey Davis at 10 is very, very likely.
  22. I'd be fine with a 6'3'' 210 pound WR with 4.48 speed.
  23. Preston Brown will probably replace Zo at SAM eventually, I think PB would make a real good SLB in this system
