  1. If that draft happened, we'd be in the playoffs 2 years in a row. Good job.
  2. Allen and Jackson are above him because of their ceiling IMO. Rudolph has a lower floor. But Allen and Jackson were both completing less than 60% (56% and 59%), Rudolph completed 63% and every year at Oklahoma St. his accuracy improved.
  3. I understand that, but he is malleable, he can throw the ball. Allen and Jackson both have accuracy issues, but they get a free pass. Rudolph is one of the most accurate throwers in the draft and he is smart, he knows where to go with the ball. Allen and Jackson have big arms, but they don't know where to go with the ball. Rudolph is very accurate and smart, while he won't wow you away with arm talent, he can get it there.
  4. Same could be said about Allen and (Mayfield?). I'm not a pro scout, I am not a college guru and I am far from an expert, but Rudolph comes from an offense where the ball was constantly in his hands, he is also very accurate. I've liked Rudolph for a long time, it wouldn't upset me if he was the guy, let me put it that way.
  5. I like him. I'd go as far to say that under the right scenario I'd take him at 21. I understand he is slotted as a RD2 guy, but I think he can be a good pro.
  6. Josh Allen falls to 10, Buffalo gives Oakland #21 and #22, Buffalo receives #10 and a 6th round pick. Bills select Josh Allen.
  7. I hope we go the 'slightly above average QB prospect that really fits our scheme' route. Same goes for a free agent QB, if you have somebody like Case Keenum and you think he fits your scheme' like a glove, I'd much rather prefer we go that way. Expecting a 20-something-year-old to save a franchise is foolish. Too much pressure and I think that's why QBs have a high bust rate and is such a crap shoot, I don't care who we draft, we need a bridge and we need to bring the rookie along slowly, take all the pressure off him. If you have to even question whether or not he's ready, that means he is not ready. Sit him on the bench until the game is so slow to him that he's aggravated that he's not out there.
  8. I think the big thing is scheme, injuries, supporting cast and coaching, those are variables experts can't see. You may have a slightly above average prospect go to a team with a great coach with a scheme that fits him perfectly. On the other side of the coin, you may have an elite player like Darnold or Rosen go to a team like the Cleveland Browns where no amount of skill can elevate that franchise which is why Rosen doesn't want to go there, he knows they'll ruin him, same goes for Eli and the Chargers.
  9. 1.) Sam Darnold 2.) Josh Rosen 3.) Baker Mayfield 4.) Josh Allen 5.) Mason Rudolph I'm hoping Allen is there at 21, huge red flags but he has so much arm potential and talent. High risk, high reward. He could end up being the best QB in the class or he could be out of the NFL in 5 years. With the flick of a wrist he moves the ball 70 yards into small windows. If he fell to 10, I'd try to package up 21 and 22 to get Allen. We would still have all our other picks.
  10. Nelson is the best OL prospect I've seen since Joe Thomas. Unfortunately, we have way too many holes and you don't move up for a OG. He is likely going to go to multiple Pro Bowls though, wouldn't surprise me if he ended up in the HOF. Rosen or Darnold I'd trade up for, I'm not educated enough to determine if Baker Mayfield would be worth moving up for, I have faith in Beane and coach McD, but QB is the only position worth giving up multiple 1sts for.
  11. Yes, yes, yes. Great player. Bennett, Kyle, rookie and Hughes. That would be a nice balance of youth and wisdom.
  12. I wouldn't take on that contract and I would be surprised if any team would, but if he was cut, absolutely we should be interested, he can play in the slot, he can take snaps at RB. Benjamin, Zay and Austin would be solid.
  13. 1 year 5 million. He can still play, he is a middle of the road DT at this point. If we draft Vita Vea or Taven Bryan that will free up Kyle and he won't get the brunt of attention. Poor #1, very good #2.
  14. I really admire the faith Jim has in the Lord, when I feel like I'm alone and I have no one, I remember that I can lean on the Lord.
  15. Crawl before you walk, walk before you run. Playoffs are just a stepping stone, but necessary to winning a Super Bowl. I want consistent playoff appearances, eventually we'll get in. Got to establish a winning culture and a winning environment at One Bills Drive.
  16. I'm ok with Rosen. I think it can pay off, we got the ammo to do it. Plug as many holes as we can in free agency and go all in.
  17. I'm not a fan of trading Glenn, if he can come back even to 80-85%, I think he is too valuable to move, maybe eventually but I think we're a few years too early with this talk.
  18. I'd rather stay put and take Taven Bryan, he would be ideal to pencil down next to Kyle. If Vita Vea fell to 21 though, he obviously should be taken over Bryan, they're both going to be very good. Bryan is more of a penetrator like KW, Vea is more like Marcell Dareus in his prime.
  19. I want Kyle Williams back and draft a star DT with 21 or 22. I like Vita Vea (he'll be gone), but I think Taven Bryan will be there. Kyle Williams is still a very decent starter and I'd like to see us make the playoffs for him one last time before he retires. He just needs somebody next to him, he is not the same, but he can still play.
  20. I liked him too. Reminded me of Favre and if Andy Reid likes him, chances are he will not be a bust.
  21. We had a lame duck GM, he wanted his guy 'Beane' to pick who he wanted, he didn't trust Whaley's thought process on QBs.
  22. As tempting as it is to say 'bring him in', he is older and costs more. I think it would be better value to draft a stud DT like Vita Vea or Taven Bryan. Bring back Kyle Williams for another year, problem solved.
  23. Reuben Brown, gave me his autograph and got Kelly and Fina to sign too. I was just a 7 year old white kid and he took care of me, will always be grateful for that. Travis Henry, remember hearing his helmet crack into defenders all the way through the TV screen, he's my favorite RB in Bills history, I understand he wasn't the greatest but I just felt he had an admirable style. Schobel was a guy that would have been a HOFer anywhere else, he had a non stop motor and could really bend and get low off that edge.
  24. EDIT: Misread title. Thought it meant to pick who you think will be least likely to bust. Quenton Nelson: Best player in the draft at his position and best OL prospect since Joe Thomas, better than Zach Martin. Pros: - Ideal size - Insane Mauler - Scheme friendly - Brutal - Mean streak - Mobile, great on pulls and as a lead blocker. Cons: - Is a guard and not a left tackle. I'd be shocked if Nelson does not make 7-8 Pro Bowls and dominates for a decade. He would be perfect for the Indianapolis Colts, this is the guy you want protecting Andrew Luck.
