I think Diggs being a no show against KC in the playoffs really ruined Beane's vision on what we need for the position. Playoff football is a more physical brand. Which often times really effected Diggs, as Diggs is more finesse and a technician. It's great to want someone that is more physically imposing, but they forgot about the getting open part. It does not matter if you can't separate.

Would you like to come home and be our passing game coordinator? Pretty please...even though you hate McDermots guts.

We better run lots of counters and outside runs. Vita Vea is a monster in the middle, and I watched him single handedly stop Phillys tush push. I would be a huge mistake if even try and run at him.

I think it's definitely more Brady. For comparison, the Patriots only have Diggs. Still good but no longer elite. I believe Boutee didn't play today, and they have a below average line and running game. Yet, every week you see them throwing bombs to open receivers. Today in Boutee's place it was Mack Hollins. We absolutely struggle in the passing game.

I wonder if this team has regular season fatigue, and is just going throw the motion sometimes. This is the most Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde team that we've had under McDermott.

I agree, feels like he should've been a 4th rounder. Shakir was a better prospect and went in the 5th.

I also voted for the one seed for several reasons. 1. One less playoff game. In recent years, injuries have killed us in the game leading up to the Chiefs game. It would be nice for once, to be healthy and rested. 2. I don't want to live in continued fear of the Chiefs. Slaying the dragon would feel almost as sweet as winning it all. Certainly would be a big step. Sick of hearing that we can't beat them in the playoffs. 3. In the scenario laid out, Chiefs would likely end up as the 3, and the Ravens as the 4. Which would mean that the Chiefs would play the Colts. Also I could see someone like the Broncos as the 5 spot, knock out the Ravens for us.

When trading for a proven commodity, you are removing the biggest variable, and that's whether or not a guy can excel at the next level. In reading what Kirby posted in the trade thread, and Beane's presser from yesterday. It almost all but confirms that they were really going after BTJ. The million-dollar question of course, that we likely will never know, is how close they got to a deal. Was our max maybe a 2nd and player, say Keone or Samuel? Was Jax wanting a 1st+ ? Did Jax jack up the price at the last minute? I still say that he was worth, about the price we paid for Diggs, and I'm willing to bet that Beane was probably willing to at least come close. I'm wondering if the Sauce trade happened, and Jax thought, wait......maybe we should also push for a 2 1's, and at that point, Beane hung up on them.

Hold them out against Miami.

Isn't this guy just another fan with a podcast? Not trying to bash him or anything, just don't see him as a legit source. Unless you know more.

Now this I would love, but it would be very pricey. I'm not a fan of Ridley, but if he was part of a Simmons deal, it changes things.

Rams were paying for Stafford when they traded for Vonn and ODB. They wouldn't of won without those guys. They proved that if it's the right guys, at a position of need, it can help put you over the top. Right now, we struggle in obvious passing situations, due to our lack of outside threat.

Not sure I agree there. Wilson has arguably done better in a far worst situation. Most non Bills fans I talk to consider Wilson elite. Not sure Diggs was considered or seen as elite before coming to Buffalo. Diggs had a competent top 10-15 QB in Cousins throwing to him. I don't think we need to list any of the Jets QBs.

Quickly losing hope.

When you consider the Pre-Buffalo Diggs vs. The Wilson now, I would give Wilson a slight edge.
