  1. I really hope they give him a ton of reps & that he gets a chance to become more than just another rotational player. Not sure adding another Epenesa will move the needle much, but he's certainly got potential.
  2. And this is why I say I don't like the Bills investing more early picks in D. I don't think a trade was necessary, but they honed in on the guy they wanted & paid extra to get him. Hope it pans out.
  3. Browns - Jags trade for me. At first I was surprised the Browns wouldn't jump at the chance to take a talent like Travis Hunter, but given that they only moved back a few spaces & snagged an extra 1st round pick next year (along with other picks), I feel like that was a smart move & could finally shows them being forward-thinking. The Jags also got a player that should definitely help Trevor Lawrence, while also bolstering their CB group... crazy to think they basically got 2 picks in 1. I'm still VERY doubtful that a 2-way player like that can work in the modern NFL, but I'm really hoping he's successful, if only for the sheer insanity of it all. And if Lawrence can't succeed now, the Jags will know they need to start looking at other options. Too bad they already signed him to a huge contract, but the Browns, Giants & Falcons all have shown that teams will move on even if their QBs are owed a lot of money.
  4. Please no... I ask all of you to think "what would an upgrade at safety really accomplish in McDermott's D?" Wouldn't we all say prime Micah Hyde & Jordan Poyer were a big upgrade over what we have now? And what did that look like come playoff time? Just remember, it's still McDermott's D. The point is that we could get 2 x studs back there, and the end result doesn't change the way he calls a game. I'm not saying it's ENTIRELY pointless, it's just the move least likely to help this team take a big step forward. I don't think having 2 great safeties back there will turn the tides against the Chiefs. I'd rather double down on our biggest strength - Josh Allen. The side of the ball most likely to see changes year-to-year is offense, so give Joe Brady more tools to help Josh succeed. McDermott & Beane are good at finding defensive talent in the later rounds anyway.
  5. Well you got the first one, so here's hoping the rest pan out.
  6. Knowing how underwhelming nearly every early round defensive pick ends up in McDermott's defense, I'm not super confident this will be any different. But I'm not mad at either. He's gotta be better than Elam, right? And either way, excited that he seems like a good dude & happy to be on the team. However, if we draft another CB in rounds 5 - 7, I fully expect he'll end up being the standout player. That's just how it works on this team 😁
  7. Wait, I don't get it... You want to come to the boards to see & discuss reactions to picks, but also don't want to know what those picks are? So you just want general "oh neat!" and "that's bad!' reactions, without telling you who they're talking about?
  8. I have paid zero attention to the draft this year & am just waiting to be surprised. I'm already prepping myself for disappointment when we invest more 1st & 2nd round picks into D, which I doubt will amount to anything since it's still McDermott's unit, but I'd love to be wrong & see us grab another WR.
  9. Dyngus Day sounds like my kinda holiday, only it should be spelled "Dingus" instead.
  10. And his current one cakes on a mountain of makeup & looks even more fake.
  11. I HATE the standing bison logo & the throwback helmets to boot. In fact, I dislike white helmets altogether. Love the current unis & colors, love the charging bison logo, but that standing bison just reminds me of helpless sitting target plains bison that got mass slaughtered by the millions, going from 60 million+ down to a few hundred. Yeah, yeah, it's nostalgic & old school, but damn if I don't hate it. Edit: And while I'm digging my own grave, Hailee Steinfeld isn't that good looking. Josh's old gf was hotter 😂
  12. Whoa, I was just at the Frisco police station today! Should've stopped by & given him the Bills sales pitch, though he'd probably fit in better with the Dolphins.
  13. Stephon Gilmore Nate Clements Antoine Winfield Tre White Terrence McGee Butch Byrd Taron Johnson Nate Odomes All good names, but I'm going with Clements, if only for this -
  14. Patriots for sure. Maye is a good player & should actually get better in year 2. In recent years, it seems a lot of QBs that had great rookie seasons took a step back their sophomore year, but Maye didn't have a "great" season. I think he'll have more of a Josh trajectory, not in terms of ceiling or anything, but more so in terms of steady progress year over year. That aside, I think Vrabel is just a good coach in general. He got to the AFCCG with Tannehill & riding Derek Henry. Compare that to John Harbaugh who has a 2 x MVP QB, 8 other Pro Bowlers AND riding Derek Henry. With a good D & good run game, I could easily see the Pats going 9-8 or 10-7 if key players stay healthy.
