Patrick Duffy

Yeah, usually is more than one thing to place blame upon. As for Tre, I don't know if he will be ready for 1st game or not, but I do think he comes back earlier than some may predict.

Well regardless of how that plays out in resigning or not, I'm just saying if he ends up having a "break out" type season.

Probably, but I assumed OP was meaning like if after his time with Bills eventually landing with a different team and not drafted by a different team? Idk, either way if it had played out differently and he was drafted by Pats etc, I feel he wouldn't be hated like Brady lol.

While I do agree with you regarding the DL in general, I would also add Edmunds. If Edmunds can get that break out season that would also be a big factor

Probably, but no way to know with the Jets. They may have had Darnold a little higher than Baker.... But anyway, he was asking in a scenario in which Baker ended up still on the board at 7 would Beane have picked him.

I guess. I always thought that was his real name but lol,anyway..... Still when you hear Boomer a Bills fan thinks Berman.

I don't know but I bet not as big as Bills over paid him.

It's like some seem to believe he will never be able to grasp such a thing. Like it's some type of brain ***** that's nearly impossible to do. It's something fairly easy to get good at doing in a short period of time. Not sure why some are making it more than it is

No way man...can't do that. That's trademarked and belongs to Chris Berman

I sometimes wonder that too. I didn't believe it was close as the media kinda made it out to be. I think Browns knew all along with no doubt they were taking Baker.

As expected....difficult to find evidence when the team mostly having only 3-5 or so wins year after year for so long. Hard to know if they were tanking or not because they sucked hardcore (throat goat type extreme sucking) all that time. Lol

Yeah I wouldn't say "feared" either, but I guarantee they will be respected more this season. While they were respected for most part last season, teams knew and felt confident they could run on Bills D.

Of course he would have. Along with any other team in need of a QB. If Baker was still on the board at 7th pick any team would have picked him. Remember he was ranked the best QB that year by a lot of ppl. So no question any team picking at #7 or 8 or whatever needing a QB would have been tripping over everyone to send the pick in if Baker was still available in that scenario

Well as for the part about if Beane moves up in draft it's because he really loves that player. Something about Elam made Beane feel some kind of way

I think it's a good chance they will be better in 2 stats, pressuring the QB/more sacks. 2nd is run defense and hopefully won't give up as many big time runs. Agree, me either. I had my mind on better pass rush and run defense. Not so much rankings in general

I feel ya...and I'm not wanting to get all up into this and all that.... but this math that you talk about that clearly you're going to live and die by doesn't mean much to me. Reason being is that there can be flaws, like there could be a mistake or maybe with these new discoveries that will continue to be found, someday one of them could turn out to be a kind that could change some things or everything they thought was known. Something that could change or make adjustments to a lot of "math".

What made you feel that way? I thought he had a decent rookie year. He had times he could have been better, but that's expected from rookies much of the time. He made some plays and batted couple passes along with showing he could stay disciplined against the run. I mean clearly he has work to do as expected, but I didn't see anything that would "lessen my enthusiasm" or anything. I came away feeling he showed some upside and believe to have some promise. Nothing that makes me believe he won't get better and better....Idk, that's just me

It's just another one of those great, newly discoveries they continue to make. What makes it even more interesting is they continue to discover more and more new things and getting answers that was/is unknown. New discoveries will continue as we go on and one can only wonder what interesting evidence will be discovered in the future. Makes it pretty clear to me that nobody has the slightest clue what's is or isn't out there when there is new discoveries still being made and so much unknown that's waiting to be discovered. Anyway, my 2 cents

No intentions to knock anyone that does this, but I don't get why anyone does a mock that far ahead? I mean there's a few players here and there that some have high expectations and all. But with all of the unknown between now and then I don't get it.

With addition of Miller alone, one would have to say better...also I feel like we will see better play from the DTs. Hard for me to see why anyone would think the D will be worse

It was said while back when that was discussed that the QB2 takes more time/reps with 2nd team or whatnot. Something along those lines.... but anyway

Yeah, not sure what happens with Jerry, but my heart wants him to possibly win a SB here. However, they might be ready to let the younger guys take over.

Yeah without question he's an upgrade over Kumerow. I have a hard time seeing it happening though.

Not necessarily, depends on the situation and if there's better personnel than it was previous season surrounding can play a factor. Anyway, I do think he's going to take a jump, but no idea how big though

Between those 2 names I'm not sure which one to feel good about, maybe neither..... Julio hardly ever plays and you know how OBJ is, also OBJ coming off that injury would be a concern.
