I think Beane has been on the whiskey again

Bill Belichick Interview CBS Sunday Morning
RobbRiddick replied to WotAGuy's topic in The Stadium Wall
- Bill, how did you meet your gf? - Well, funniest thing, my friend introduced me to her as "the multi millionaire former NFL coach" and she instantly seemed really into me. -
I have to say that had crossed my mind. I was wondering why they wouldn't go after a legit speedster and was thinking "Allen surely must have asked for one? And since he is the Bills franchise why wouldn't they do it?" All I could conclude was that Josh has said he prefers the gameplan the way it was this season (it got him an MVP so you can see why that would be the case). Maybe he doesn't even want the temptation of getting reckless and chucking deep instead of checking down. It's like how I prefer not to have candy in the house because I lack the discipline of not eating it all in one evening. It's all or nothing. I am the Josh Allen of calorie intake (although my wife is more Halley's Comet than Hailee Steinfeld)

Bills 6th Round Pick (#1) : Dorian Strong - CB - VA Tech
RobbRiddick replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
The perception around the league and media is that Beane is a very good GM. The Jets fans were lamenting the fact that he leapfrogged them a couple of times and took DTs because that was a big area of need for them. We as fans of the Bills look at everything in more detail and make a lot more of his failures which Im sure is the same for other fans around the league, even fans of teams we consider really well run. Apparently even the chiefs fans were unhappy with their draft. You'd think they'd know to trust their regime by now considering they make the Super Bowl every year. I think Beane is great in general but I would like him to hit more home runs with his first rounders. that's been a real weakness of his which has been redeemed in large part by Josh Allen who is arguably the best pick in Bills history. His mid to late round picks have had a bunch of diamonds though -
I'm not as smart as Beane but I also don't see the point of not having a speedster on the roster who you can use, at the least, as a gadget guy and to help keep the defense honest. I like the idea of having a guy you can use on jet sweeps like KC, and who you can just tell to tear down the field a few times a game and let Josh unleash one deep.

With the draft over it is time for the udfa thread
RobbRiddick replied to scuba guy's topic in The Stadium Wall
Damn, wish Brady was still playing, would love to see this guy fall stomach-first onto Tommy during practice and turn him into a diamond -
We're almost at my favorite time of draft weekend, when we bring in the undrafted FAs and anoint one of them the ultimate diamond in the rough! I'm guessing this year it will be a WR with speed to burn but who only caught 2 passes in college

Or they're worried about Benford getting another concussion and want to make sure they have plenty of depth -
Bills 5th Round Pick (#2) : Jackson Hawes - TE - Georgia Tech

I've loved Hawes most of my adult life. Wasted a lot of money on them though -

Guessing he's a blocking TE -
Bills 5th Round Pick (#1) : Jordan Hancock - CB - The Ohio State
RobbRiddick replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
Wonder who the next pick will be? Offense? WR? RB? Maybe a safety? No idea what's left -
Bills 5th Round Pick (#1) : Jordan Hancock - CB - The Ohio State
RobbRiddick replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
And there's the yearly late round CB who will go on to become a solid player (possibly better than their first round CB). That's one thing I love about Beane and these scouts. Getting a LB or defensive back in the 5th, 6th or 7th round and you have a real belief they could end up being a solid contributor, or even a great player -
Shedur Sanders Make To Round 5? (Poll) - UPDATED x 3
RobbRiddick replied to boyst's topic in The Stadium Wall
yeah, they're acting like he was imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit. It's funny because one of the criticisms has been that he has an entitled attitude, and they're all acting entitled on his behalf. They're desperately trying to turn it into some sort of racial hate crime, like George Floyd. Stephen A Smith has been comparing it to Kapernick. I guess it will give them something to talk about during the dry months of the offseason -

I've just been reading the social media site formally known as Prince and I'm (maybe naively) shocked by the amount of people saying Sanders' slide is blatant racism. -
Bills First Rnd pick in 2025 draft: Maxwell Hairston - CB - Kentucky
RobbRiddick replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
I like the speed. I have a feeling they will grab another CB with one of the 2nd round picks, maybe the 4th since they draft so well with the mid to late picks. -
Just think, a few young men in GB right now will one day be labelled as busts on this very site (possibly before the end of training camp). Amazing when you think they have it all ahead of them
