I know it's probably a little generous, but they need not rebuild. They can turn it around quick. Their problem was OBJ was hurt and their line was terrible. Plus McAdoo was a problem. If they shore up that o line they can make a run. That defense is going to be really good with the hire of James Bettcher. Their three win season was an anomaly in my opinion.

It's so early but it makes so much sense for this to be a part of a trade up. Say the Giants make that trade Cordy, grab some linemen at 21, 22, they could be back in the Super Bowl next year. I know you have to grab the franchise guy when you can, but if Eli is going to play 3-4 more years then there is no need.

Mayfield may not play in Senior Bowl

Great news. Looking forward to it. -
I think this is the winner

Damn that Brian St. Pierre

Gotta admit that Mayfield is starting to grow on me a bit. I was pondering a lot of great points people have made on here and watching practices and going back and watching some more of his games and I'm starting to come around a bit. I'm getting to the point that I'd be okay with any of the top 4. I really want Rosen or Darnold, but I'm coming around a bit.

Probably this. I'm struggling between Takeo and London Fletcher

Potential replacements for Eric Wood
MrEpsYtown replied to The Now Moment's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Fun fact, Groy spent about a month on the Patriots roster in 2015 while Daboll was there, so there is some crossover. It's not a big connection, but they are familiar with each other and one would assume he is the type of lineman who fit the scheme. Also, I know we all hate Juan Castillo, but if he is back Ryan Jensen would be a nice get in free agency. Jensen developed under Castillo and had a really nice year in his first year as a starter. He's 26 years old. He can also play guard. Honestly I'd sign Jensen and have Groy. One plays center, one plays RG. -
I lean this way as well. It makes sense to draft the best position player, then take whichever QB is left at 4. They are probably going to pick the wrong guy anyway, so maybe they should let fate choose?

Eric Wood has career-ending neck injury; will retire
MrEpsYtown replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Thoughts and prayer to him and his family. He was a true warrior for us. He has a really awesome personality, so I hope we get to see him on TV doing some announcing and such. -

Probably going to be an extension for Mike Tolbert -
Are you the guy hugging him, or the guy staring at his firm buttocks?

Mayfield may not play in Senior Bowl
MrEpsYtown replied to MrEpsYtown's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Pretty much completely agree. Good stuff. I know its boring to be the guy who ignores criticism like Eli Manning, but that what I want my quarterback to be. Boring and efficient. -
Mayfield may not play in Senior Bowl
MrEpsYtown replied to MrEpsYtown's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That is a pretty interesting concept. Kind of taking one for the team. It sounds like sugar coating, but I do buy it to a certain extent. If he's willing to take on the criticism to protect his teammates that is pretty cool. I don't love how he responds to the criticism and it seems like it has the potential to be Ryan Leaf-like. -
The end result is the following list of players for Buffalo, in order of the positions listed in the guide: RB Damien Williams FB Derrick Coleman WR John Brown WR Andre Roberts TE Jeff Cumberland OT Austin Pasztor DT Daequan Jones DT Kyle Williams DE Ezekiel Ansah DE Arthur Moats LB Bruce Carter CB EJ Gaines Very strange list and besides Ansah, Kyle and Gaines, a lot of it doesn't make sense. Look like it was put together but someone that knows nothing about our team. Damien Williams is just a generic backup running back. he's nothing special. You could probably get someone like him late in the draft. Williams also has red flags and was dismissed from Oklahoma when he was there. Derrick Coleman is a fullback who is not better than Patrick DiMarco, and has been suspended for off the field stuff. John Brown makes some sense as a deep threat, but probably not much better than Deonte Thompson. He's also had a ton of injury issues. He did have a huge year in 2015. Andre Roberts visited here a couple of years ago and chose to sign somewhere else. He's an okay punt returner. Slight upgrade from Tate. Jeff Cumberland is a blocking tight end who is an okay player. Guys like him can always be found in the draft for cheaper like East_West Shrine interview Ethan Wolf as an UDFA. Austin Pasztor is a Canadian backup right tackle who was available for league minimum last summer. Daquan Jones would be an interesting add as a depth player on the defensive line. A PSU alum who was a fourth round pick. Coming off a torn biceps. Arthur Moats is a severely undersized defensive end who has been valuable as a rotational piece as a linebacker for Pittsburgh. He would be an awful fit in our defensive scheme at end or linebacker. Bruce Carter was a big time free agent signing of the Bucs a few years ago. They expected him to come in and be their MIKE and be awesome. He played like crap and got benched and then cut. His defensive coordinator at the time? Leslie Frazier. So yeah, I'm not a fan of this list. It seems like a lazy plugging of positional needs.

If Trent Edwards signs and has "Captain Checkdown" on his jersey it would all be worth it.

I had the opportunity to work for this guy a few years ago. He's a jerk but he knows what he is doing. My concern is that he is too much of a control freak so I'm not sure a true competitive sport is really in his wheelhouse. Maybe he will hire Al Riveron? Anyway, if he could get a hold of guys like Tebow, Kaepernick, Manziel, Greg Hardy, Mario Williams, maybe he could make something happen? I think the difference between now and before is that there is actual talent at home sitting on the streets. People blackballed or getting into trouble or just left behind. The XFL failed because the football was bad, but there is a good amount of football talent out there who have no jobs. Now is the time to strike.

I like Ansah and even DeMarcus Lawrence, but there will be a lot of competition for their services. I want Robert Quinn. Perfect fit for our defense. He's got a big contract, but no bigger than you would have t give Ansah. Plus he only has two more years and very little guaranteed money. He's only 27. The Rams could cut him for cap reasons, which is crazy. I'd offer them a pick just to guarantee I get him.

I like Milano. He is good in space and I thought he was excellent shooting gaps and blitzing. He was really good at this at BC. I think he needs to improve in coverage a bit. He was really close to a bunch of interceptions and just kind of got moved at the last second by teh quarterback. As his awareness of the game increases, his coverage will be better. I think he was pretty poor taking on blockers and sometimes took some really bad angles. I think he has potential though and has a nose for the ball. Now is he LaVonte David or Telvin Smith? No, but he can be an average starter at the Will and he will make plays. Taking on blocks and working on angles can be improved, as can his awareness in coverage. He can also stand to get stronger. He is much better than I thought he would be after watching him in the preseason.
