  1. Buffalo almost certainly has enough cap space to sign him considering how late in the free agency process it is. I highly doubt he chooses Buffalo though.
  2. I think Bob has more sources honestly. He’s a wayyy more annoying personality though.
  3. We’ve come a long way from everyone freaking out when mock draft guys started pegging Rosen outside the top 10
  4. Sure but you could argue that’s just the Bills trying to trick teams into thinking that it’s a smokescreen. Isn’t the fact that the Bills have basically admitted that Allen is a smokescreen a bit suspicious? do you think word accidentally got out about their interest in every other QB?
  5. It’s literally leaked out that Buffalo’s favorite QB in the class is every single QB at this point.
  6. In person, probably 3 times if you include the Senior Bowl. They’ve seen the others probably like 5 or 6 times. I’m sure they’ve poured over the film of all of them. If they never saw him at all, I’d say you can cross him off the list, but they could easily have seen enough in a couple games to think he is or isn’t the guy they want. You also have to consider that in the case of many of these other QBs, Buffalo isn’t only scouting the QB. For example, USC has Ronald Jones and Burnett, UCLA has Lasley, Oklahoma has a good OLine and pass rusher, OK State has the WRs.
  7. On the contrary, it sounds to me like Buffalo can trade up at a relatively cheap cost and still have their choice of 3 worthy choices.
  8. Luke doesn't appear to agree with the idea that this is a weak draft for WRs lol.
  9. The prior year they were one of the highest scoring teams in the country while having a defense that couldn't stop anyone. It flip-flopped this season.
  10. This is the part I don't get in this particular scenario. With the info this guy gave out, if this were actually true, there's no way Brandon isn't easily able to put the puzzle pieces together. Again, if we're assuming this is true (which I highly, highly doubt), Brandon probably told what, maybe 5 people at the most about it? How many of those 5 do you think works as a District Manager and also as a referee? I'm guessing the answer is 1.
  11. I think Beane wants Josh Allen but I think ultimately ends up with Rosen instead.
  12. I'm sure there's plenty of examples of each of this year's QBs lacking eye discipline; this example isn't really very good though. The whole point of the play was to look at the TE and pump fake as he makes his cut out; the QB is trying to sell the defense on the idea that he's making the first throw to the TE and it works. Allen just put too much air under this pass and allowed the safety to get over and make a play on it.
  13. Theoretically the teams answering might not have interest in drafting a QB this year anyways so they don’t have a reason to lie either.
  14. Just my opinion, but I preferred Mahomes over all of the QBs in this year's draft. I think that's definitely a minority opinion though.
  15. There's plays where some of his O-Linemen literally don't block anybody; they just get out of their stance and look around while guys run right by them completely untouched. 41% of Allen's passes came while facing pressure. The potential 1st rounders: Allen: 41% Lamar: 36% Rosen: 29% Darnold: 31% Mayfield: 27% Rudolph: 23%
  16. As in CJ2K? He was among the best RBs in the country by the time he left ECU. I'm pretty sure he had like 25 TDs as a senior. He was a one-hit wonder in college though. I think Ballage tested out faster than DJ. I just don't think he's nearly as talented personally. Ballage is an interesting guy to take a flier on but he doesn't look to have much wiggle to his game at all and one of the main knocks on him is that he just doesn't see holes. Seems like a straight-line speed guy that can hit a home run if you open up a big hole for him but that's basically it. The receiving skills is definitely where most of my interest lays. He's a Day 3 guy IMO though.
  17. Either way he'll be a late 1st or early 2nd in all likelihood. I think it was Jeremiah, but someone the other day was saying they expect Saquon, Guice, and Sony Michel all to go in the first round.
  18. There were a couple years where a relative of mine worked very closely with the Bills front office (not directly in the front office though) so he had given me a few tidbits along the way, with the main one being that EJ Manuel was the QB that Buffalo was targeting leading up to the 2013 draft.
  19. You'd like to think Buffalo will at least show interest considering the massive need involved, but we'll see. Certainly a questionable fit for "the process".
  20. What I want: Roquan Smith at 12 and a trade up from 22 for Lamar What I expect: A trade up to the 7-10 range to take the 4th QB in the draft (my guess being Rosen)
  21. While I understand the need to get a QB, my god whoever the QB is would be beyond screwed with the O-Line Buffalo has in place and a WR corps of Zay Jones, Andre Holmes, and Rod Streater to throw to lol.
  22. The QBs drafted by those three teams aren't even expected to play their rookie season besides MAYBE the Jets. I don't think the QBs they target have anything to do with coaches being on hot seats. Theoretically they could be trying to drive up interest in the #4 pick by making it seem like Allen is a can't-miss prospect. I ultimately think they'll keep both of their picks though.
  23. My two favorite memories: 1. This past season's playoff game in Jacksonville. My mom is the biggest Bills fan in the family. One of her biggest dreams was to take her boys to a playoff game before we all moved away. I moved to DC almost 2 years ago. The Jaguars game was literally on her birthday, so we all surprised her and got tickets to fly down and go to the game and I met them all down in Jacksonville. Obviously it sucked that they lost, but it was such a great experience and I know it meant the world to her to be there. 2. I don't even really remember the game, but one year for my birthday, we had a group of like 15 friends get tickets to drive from Rochester and there happened to be a blizzard that day. The drive probably took about 5 hours due to the weather and you could barely see anything on the field but just getting there was one of those things I'll never forget.
