Ethan in Cleveland

Agree with everything you stated. I would only add just as Allen didn't have great talent around him, he wasn't competing against great talent either. Richardson was my top QB choice coming out of college. Can't teach size and arm strength. But I reiterate none of these guys know. None of them. Everyone of them passed on Brady multiple times including Belichick five times. Bill Walsh thought Trent Edwards was the next Montana.They don't know. 83 draft had three HOF players, two below average but not entirely busts, and one absolute bust. Perhaps the best one of the six was taken last.

Lol. Is that Richardson or Allen's pre-draft assessment??? None of these guys including Beane have a clue which QBs will be stars and which will be busts. Sure most people would say intelligence is a must but Kelly, Favre, and Marino are some of the dumbest guys to star at the position. Some moron drafted Manziel in the first round and half this board thought he was going to be a star. Should be fun to see it play out.

It was over when we saw Bernard play last year and Beane drafted another smurf in the third round this year. I've never been high on Dodson but at least he has size. So disappointed we couldn't land Wagner for a SB run. Oh well hope Dodson can hold his own. Could he really make any less plays than Edmunds did last year?

Basham or Epenesa. One of them should go. Might fetch a 5th. Then maybe Boettger for a 7th

I'm a Davis fan but you can't pay everyone. He's nowhere close to a top 15 WR but some team will pay him that. His agent would be foolish to take a lesser deal. Win a SuperBowl, let him walk, get a comp pick. Draft OT, safety, WR next year.

How do you know Starbucks doesn’t have more? Last I read the arrest rate for 20 year old men was less in the NFL than the general population.

I don’t think any game is rigged but Steelers’ SuperBowl win over Seahawks was one of the worst officiated games I’ve ever seen. Three penalties against Seahawks including OPI in end zone and a phantom holding call wiped our 14 points. Just awful.

The defense gets to choose who they line up against him

He is correct about defensive minded head coaches. He is wrong about almost everything else.

Fields had as bad an offensive team around him as Allen did his rookie year. I think both have a chance to be good.

Patriots didn't need it during their dynasty. Give me an easy path to the playoffs and a healthy team in January

Don't need Knox? You have no understanding of this offense or how they will use Kincaid.

Excellent post

You can't exclude trading a #1 pick for a WR and say the Bills are opposite the rest of the league. Its the exact opposite of the point you are trying to make. They invested a #1 pick on a WR. Makes no difference if it is a veteran or a rookie.

And Diggs is the first guy to congratulate him. I read somewhere on here he was a problem diva WR???

If used correctly he is a 70 catch 800 yard guy as a rookie. Remember he is not a TE, he is a slot receiver. That is still 20 or so less receptions than Beasley had in this offense in one less game. If he only has 40 catches for 500 yards then they have a problem. Diggs should be around 105 receptions. Then I think Davis goes for 65 receptions and at 16 YPC that puts him just over 1000 yards. That's 240 receptions of the 350-380 completions Josh will throw. The remaining 120ish receptions will be spread around to the other guys. Knox probably makes 40 or 50 of those.

And STs being a 3rd part of the team is coach speak. Football has evolved. The game changes. But you are correct this regime values ST only players.

He played in 323 ST snaps last year and 3 defensive snaps. He had 6 tackles all year. 6 tackles in 16+ games. The prior year 340 ST snaps in 17 games and 19 total tackles but 7 pf which were assists. I'm sorry any street FA on a minimum contract can do what he does. For that matter Dorian Williams should take all his ST snaps. Williams is likely to never see the field as Milano's backup. At least he could see real action for a year playing STs.

Sadly you will probably be correct He actually made three decent blocks last year which is a 200% improvement over the prior year.

New owner. I'm assuming everyone is fired at the end of the year or even sooner barring a miraculous playoff run.

Hardly. Dak is a top 10 QB

He's 6th all time in passing yards and 6th in passing TDs. He's a lock for the HOF. Depending who else is eligible he will be a first or second ballot HOF inductee.

49ers have one of the worst QB situations in the NFL. Bills Dallas version 3.0 is my prediction

Superbowl wins matter. But so does consistent long term success. People will remember Phillip Rivers and Eli Manning. Rivers was the better QB. Eli had more special moments and obviously two Lombardis. Eli will probably be a first ballot HOF inductee. Rivers probably takes a few years. Mahommes is a first ballot HOF guy too. Allen will be as well when he wins our hometown a couple Lombardis.

Actually he didn't. When Miller went down they gave Epenesa the chance to start. I dont think it lasted for more than a game or two. Then Lawson was elevated to starter. McDermott didn't play Lawson as a starter when he was on the team before. The fact he started over Epenesa shows how bad Epenesa is. I'm guessing he gets the Cody Ford treatment after the first preseason game. He gets shipped out for a day 3 pick.
