    Did you stop watching football years ago also? Age is just a number. They aren't giving him 5 years. Alexander just ran a 4.6. These guys are in tremendous shape for their age. 

    OK bud, Love the comment. But if age is just a number, then tell me why there are not more 36 year old linebackers in the league?

    Especially playing for defenses that emphasize speed.

    I look forward to your list, after  all age is just a number...

    I would stress that you make an exception for Bob McGinn.

    He recently retired from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, but as easily been one of the most skilled and respected newspaper writers of this past generation.

    I always look forward to reading McGinn's draft material, as no one, yes no one, is better connected around the league.

    He is a must read this time of year and in upcoming columns will post about each position group.

  3. Thank you for the posts Norwood For Wall of Fame and 1billsfan.

    The  "We are doomed" had their day, glad to see reasoned posters are prevailing.

     

    The beauty of drafting is that it is an inexact science. No one knows which one of Rosen, Darnold, Allen and Mayfield will

    be busts, but history has shown that at least 2 will, and they probably aren't the ones you are thinking of now.

    I’m usually not the “watch him go crazy on the Patriots” guy but Hill scares me there. He has a lot of ability. He’s an idiot (google the sucker punch in college) but he has a lot more ability than most of the guys that they have had. It reminds me a little of Corey Dillon there. I wouldn’t be surprised if Hill was a 1k back with 10 TDs. I hate that.

    I wouldn't lose sleep over Jeremy Hill. The Bengals thought so much of him that they drafted Joe Mixon in the second round to replace him.

    Have you watched him run the last two years? 3 speeds- Slow, slower, slowest. 

     

    As far as a Corey Dillon comp? I don't see it. Dillon was a beast!!  Incredible production, a work horse back for many seasons,. Hill had a phenomenal half season as a rookie and has not been any more than average since.

    Not to mention that New England's offense has evolved quite a bit since then 2006.

    And honestly, that's it.  That's all I have to say and it had to be said and I don't really care if there is another thread on this subject.

     

    Truthfully, I feel like crawling out of my bedroom window and screaming it from my F'ing roof at the top of my lungs like Peter Finch in the movie Network, but my wife and daughter are trying to sleep.

     

    Jeepers how good is this guy as a GM.  (Not a question)

     

    Mods lock if you must, but I had to get it out.

     

    Go Bills.

    I am incredibly pleased with Beane. A witch?   I might have used a different word, but I feel you.

    Just don't call him the dreaded "Master Poker Player" that so many on here called Tom Donahoe during his reign with the Bills.

    Can the owners meeting get here really fast so the next trade up can happen already???

     

    Maybe maybe not. Tape means more than Combine

    Well he is phenomenal on tape and at the combine.

    Anyone wanting more information on Vander Esch might enoy reading this. Urlacher isn't a bad comp.

  7. Thank God!

    All these silly posts about trading for this guy or that guy can end.

    The Bills were patient, all good things come to those who wait!

     

    Having a QB roster of:

    Rosen, McCarron and Peterman next year is pretty good in my book.

     

    Need I add..."Trust The Process..."

    Teddy Bridgewater had an inexplicably horrible pro day. Just awful. 

    Good point, but I guess I was being rhetorical.

    These pro days are orchestated to such a great degree, it is RARE that a players strengths aren't highlighted and weaknesses are minimized.

    Teddy really must have **** the bed, because at the time no one could even sugar coat it.

    It's a good 9 minute watch...Enjoy

     

     

    My greatest source of joy with Rosen is his intermediate and vertical accuracy. It’s a beautiful and consistent process.

     

    To add some perspective to Rosen’s prowess, there are a lot of NFL quarterbacks who lack Rosen’s consistent range and accuracy in the vertical game. When you hear about quarterbacks who can throw the ball 60-70 yards, it’s best to consider the range of distance they can consistently deliver pinpoint throws.

     

    The most common range for NFL quarterbacks is 40-50 yards.

     

    Rosen’s is a tier above.

    I have watched this, Waldman is always worth listening too.

    Thee are so many talking heads spinning nonsense about the draft and particularly the QB's.

    I find it worthwhile to cut through the nonsense  and seek out the opinions of those who are actually experienced at doing  film study of QB's.

    It seems like those that actually study film- prefer Josh Rosen overwhelmingly.

    This includes Waldman, Josh Norris and the God father of film study himself Greg Cosell.
