Too bad they’re not both named Josh. That was fun for a bit!

Lindy Ruff?

Yikes that’s a ton of words! As I’ve said repeatedly, the Bills swung for the fences following 13 seconds, believing they were right on the proverbial doorstep…and they missed. Now, they have to reload. Will they be better? Does it matter? They didn’t have a choice but to turnover the roster. Not sure what all the rest of the analogies and yapping is about.

Reading through most of this I think we can all agree that we want to see the Bills up by three scores late in the 4th quarter so that we take the in-game strategy away from our crack coaching staff! Whichever offensive “philosophy” gets us up by at least 21 points I’m all for it. 👍

I’ve lost the point of this conversation now. It started with people saying we need a really fast guy because Josh can throw the ball really far. To which I pointed out, like you, that throwing the ball really far is NOT what Josh is asked to do very often l.

That’s true. He’s clearly improved. But…that still doesn’t make the deep ball his greatest strength.

We’re splitting hairs here. Of the two, his bigger strength is throwing the ball hard, not pinpointing his spot. That would be true if he was a baseball pitcher…and everyone in the league would know it.

I’ve never understood this take on Josh Allen. His strength is NOT the deep ball. In fact the deep ball just exposes his well documented weakness…which is accuracy. His strength is throwing the ball hard! To play to his strength he needs receivers who can hang on to his fast ball.

We’re all just going to have to wait and see, and you’re not gonna have to wait very long. The season starts in just a few months and we’ll all know what we got in Coleman. He won’t be riding the bench. (If he is, the pitchforks are coming out.) As for me, I’m going to trust that the Front Office did their homework.

I realize but nothing is forever in the NFL. We used to have six preseason games and only fourteen regular season games. My point is that Round 7 becomes a total grab bag of guys nobody’s ever heard of. We have a family friend who went undrafted last year but because he did he was able to walk on to the team of HIS choice that he knew needed help at his position. He made the 53 man roster. I’m not sure that would have happened if he’d been trapped on the team that might have picked him in Round 7 only to be cut a week before the season in the NFL’s latest final roster cut down blizzard.

I'm old enough to have experienced it, and a decade before that as well. My comment still stands. These 7th Round guys have little chance of making a roster. It'd be better for them to not be handcuffed to a specific team.

Josh must be working with his receivers because Ms Steinfeld was sitting at the table right next to us at breakfast this morning and Josh wasn’t with her. (She appeared to be with her Dad.)

Relax people! Gabe Davis was close to worthless when it mattered, so Samuel replaces his production easily! Diggs disappeared for the entire second half of the season, so they started down the road of dumping his high cost and poor attitude and drafted a WR with their Top Pick. I have NO IDEA what people are thinking we could’ve done.

Watched him play in college and immediately knew he’d be a Buffalo Bill…..he HAD TO be! 😁

I have no idea why people don’t understand where the Bills are right now. They swung for the fences a few years ago thinking that 13 seconds had them on the doorstep. The swing and missed and now have to pay for it by rebuilding with a much younger, cheaper roster. But somehow through that, and including this draft, have now replaced the starting WR, TE, RB on offense and the MLB, S on defense. And with all of that they’re still expected to compete for a championship. It’s going to take another year. 2024 will NOT be the year. It was NEVER going to be.

This is the time of the draft when I think they need to eliminate the last two rounds and let these players walk on wherever they believe they have the best shot.

Kid led the FBS in sacks last season!

What a bunch of whiners! This draft is ticking all the boxes. Offense and defense. And we’re not picking two DEs in a row for a change.

Wouldn’t it be more accurate to say ANOTHER late pick?

Why not just move the Super Bowl kick off time to earlier in the day? Would that really be so difficult?

You don’t want your franchise Quarterback having a significant say in who he’s going to throw the ball to? Really?

We’re going to see. But I’m thinking that (a) Beane isn’t picking a WR so why not get an extra draft pick for free or (b) Beane had a good hunch who Carolina and KC wanted so why not get multiple extra draft picks and then still get the WR he wanted all along at 33.

As I’ve often said, people get WAY too hung up on which Round a player is taken in.

So you’re saying that we’re “aggressively “ looking to move back! Quick…..somebody start that thread. 😉

Why would they have done so already? He’s still there now. The goal of the draft isn’t to take your guy as early as possible. The goal is to take him as LATE as possible.
