LeSean McCoy hamstring injury - OUT vs Lions
ghostwriter replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I hope we move away from having a feature back and simply go RB by committee. I'd rather have the 55th and 56th rated RB signed to 4.5m each than to have a top 10 RB for 10m. Cost less money, more production and if one of your backs go down you just increase the work load on the other one. More carries to play with too. As much as I like LeVeon Bell I'd rather pair TJ Yeldon up with Tevin Coleman for way more production and less money. Grab two #2RBs and just rotate them. -
Big Picture: I am optimistic
ghostwriter replied to TC in St. Louis's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If the Bills play their cards right we could easily lead the league in rushing and I think Allen can be a 4,000yd passer on top of it. 2019 should look a lot different than this year. There's a million different ways to spend that 90 million and 10 draft picks but we can be a playoff team if the right moves are made. -
Target the Offensive line in 2019
ghostwriter replied to Tatonka68's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'd love it if we signed TJ Yeldon and or Tevin Coleman to come in and run behind these lines. -
EJ Manuel is the opposite player of Josh Allen. EJM checked down over and over and never made big plays. Josh Allen makes tons of plays but struggles to check it down. They're completely opposite. The difference is that for EJM to develop he must make more big plays than he is capable of. For Allen to develop he must learn the mundane and tedious side of QBing, the boring B word work that any 7th round QB can learn.
-
It is true and Allen is a smart QB so there should be no red flags going into this. Absolutely no proof that Allen will not develop, there is more evidence to support Allen being a good QB than a bad one. I think you've just been crushed over and over from previous QBs that you're a bit hesitant to be supportive of new ones.
-
Once again, the good news for Allen is that the areas he's weak in areas that typically NFL veterans become proficient in over time. Allen can throw a 75yd strike to Robert Foster but he can't hit a 1yd RB screen? It'll come. As far as deep plays I think he's done more than you give him credit for. Foster has almost 400yds at 24yac. Zay Jones almost had a 3 TD 120yd game. He's making plays. Allen will become a manager in 2019 or will at least show development in that area next year. Every NFL QB should should should show growth here year after year. What you can't teach is the 45yd runs or TD passes thrown on a dime.
-
He does indeed project as a G or RT, but I think he could help us at LT if we put him there. Certainly better than Dawkins. Will he be a 10x Pro Bowl player? No. LT. Jonah Williams LG. Dion Dawkins C. FA/Paradis/Morse RG. Teller/rookie RT. Rookie/rookie id at least expect a unit that can get stuff done.
-
Bring Mills back on a 1yr deal. Draft a RT RDS 2-3.
-
If he goes to G I think it would help us more. If we draft a LT and RT we upgrade 3 OL positions with 2 picks. Dawkins would be an All Pro LG. Sign a center in free agency and we're doing ok.
-
I'm open to moving Dawkins to G and drafting a few Ts at this point. We're in a good position for Jonah Williams with that #1 pick, plug him in at LT.
-
Historically speaking most veteran QBs have mastered the game in the areas Allen needs help at. I think Allen's issues as a game manager will correct itself over time. It will all even out. The big playmaking mentality that Allen brings though is elite, you have it or you don't. Once again, Allen will grow as a manager, guaranteed. We just got to let Allen grow, he will continue to improve until he's 34 or 35.

Give Barkley the start next week?
ghostwriter replied to RosenNOTchosen1's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
People from space, they do not come from here. They are space people. -
I'm still here. Allen makes plays few QBs can make, it's just the routine check down passes he's struggled with. Allen needs to put on some tape of Chad Pennington and just observe him. Get more comfortable on them 5yd throws, play the chess game underneath. Most QBs do OK in this area over time, Allen just needs to put the brunt of his effort here this offseason. A pass catching TE and RB will get his completion % up quite a bit. Some of it is personnel and Allen has done well given the circumstances.

[Please Change Title] This is a loss I can deal with
ghostwriter replied to WMDman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
We can get his completion percentage up, he needs a couple pass catching RBs and an OL. Then he'll be 63-65% guaranteed. He makes enough big plays a game, it's just the chess match in the red zone and 10yds underneath the D that he could use to work at in the offseason. -
Should the Bills Trade Down in 2019?
ghostwriter replied to Phil The Thrill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Trade down twice if you can. There's talent in every round. -
Pregame thread: Wk 14 Jets at Bills
ghostwriter replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Need to see a big game out of Zay and hopefully our other WRs can make up the difference so we look like an NFL offense. Hopefully McKenzie plays and Foster gets some action. -
TJ Yeldon was a 2nd round pick a few years ago, career 4ypc guy and is an excellent receiver too. He was behind Fournette on the depth chart, bring him here to be our #1 RB. Shouldn't cost much. Could potentially be a 1,000yd rusher and putting up numbers as a receiver. Perfect guy for our offense.
-
Brady threw for 5,200 with Gronk and Hernandez. Fant can be our Gronk. Caleb Wilson could easily play the Hernandez role on the field. Tyrell Williams would go up against Zay for that #1 spot. Just another quality NFL target.
