  1. Hmmm...I don't get that perception reading this thread
  2. Jones at one point was far better than Spector ever will be. That may not be the case now but I don't see how Spector is a lock for the 53. I doubt Smoot makes the 53. Camp body so Miller can rest.
  3. I like it! Low risk. Has more talent than most of the WRs on the team now. Maybe McD's process and team culture here will work.
  4. Wish him nothing but the worst. Amazing that a guy who cheated on his sport is now caught cheating in life. Shocking! Fyi...as he is not a Bills, this does not count as a negative post in my new found era of Bills positivity...
  5. They will be able to afford it. Torrence will still be on his rookie deal. If the Georgia kid is playing center he will be cheap. And Dawkins replacement will probably be on a rookie deal for several years. Then you pay Brown for a few years then as Torrence and the new LT need to get paid you move on from Brown. Easier said than done but they can pay Brown if he earns an extension.
  6. Unless Rousseau puts up double digit sacks I let him go. He has not been a difference maker at all. He's better than Epenesa but that's a low bar. If Brown has another good year I pay him. It took several years and several tries to find a competent RT to protect Allen. It is antiquated thinking that RT is less important than LT. They will need to move on from Dawkins in a year or two and that will require a high draft pick to replace. They can't afford to use two high draft picks on OT in the next few years.
  7. If by a couple years you mean 2026 LT - TBD - it will be a second year player drafted in first or second round of 2025 LG - McGovern or TBD C - kid from Georgia. I will learn his name when he makes the 53 RG - two time ProBowl Torrence RT - Brown If Brown stays healthy, Bills will have top 3 RG/RT combo in the league
  8. I put the over/under at 50 for the number of times during the season we hear McDermott say we have a young team while playing week 17 in the hope they make the WC. If Rodgers stays healthy the Jets are winning the division. They will have a favorable schedule and added OL pieces to help protect Rodgers. Their defense is formidable. Patriots suck and Dolphins will unravel this year.
  9. Bad players get traded all the time Beane traded for Benjamin Kelvin Sheppard was traded for Hughes
  10. He was taken at 23. Jumping six spots would not have been insurmountable. Time to move on but BTJ, Worthy, and Coleman are all linked now as they were all in play for Beane. I would not have taken Worthy, but many on here wanted a trade up for BTJ. Hope Coleman is a solid WR. Allen if he truly is a HOF QB should be able to produce with this group.
  11. I warn you not to watch the video on ESPN. It's a highlight reel of Brian Thomas Jr doing amazing things
  12. Oh God, watching the Zay Jones release article on ESPN makes me sick to my stomach. It's just one long highlight reel for Brian Thomas Jr doing things I never saw once in all the Coleman highlights.
  13. I'd trust Bills fans over Shannon Sharpe and Chad Johnson. Also when have you ever heard former players say rookies aren't going to do well. They almost all say they will do well, but yet we know the bust rate is far greater than the success rate. So no I don't really care what these guys say. We will judge with our own eyes and see how he plays. Right now the general consensus on this board is he a more consistent version of Gabe Davis. If that is true then for a second round pick I can live with that. That means he is somewhere around 40-50 catches, 600-800 yards, and 4-8 TDs. Gabe's rookie year he had 35 catches, 7 TD and 599 yards.
  14. I keep reading on here that Allen has not restrucuted but there are multiple reports he restructured his contract back in March opening up $16.7M in cap. For those that follow cap numbers closely, has his restructure already been done and applied to the cap? I know White's saving will be coming in a few weeks.
  15. No thanks. The O-line is set. The kid from Georgia was the last missing piece. They have depth across the line. They are a bit less multidimensional as compared to what they have been in the past. They don't have a Swiss army knife guy like Bates that can play anywhere in a pinch. They seem to have solid back-ups across the line and a nice mix of a developmental guys and break the glass incase of emergency vets.
  16. Michael Thomas is the guy I would take a chance on. If he could ever stay healthy he was a threat. Probably would get for vet minimum. Little risk, possible reward.
  17. Lol...I don't feel like arguing as I'm trying to be positive. Just will list dispassionate stats. Andre never had back to back 1000 yard seasons. He was a great great player. Tough and excellent run after catch. But what Diggs did in his four years here was better than any WR in Bills history. His reception totals per season are the four highest. He had the top two yards in a seson and 4 of the top 12. Andre's top yards in a season were 5th and 6th and those are the only two in the top 12. Of course Andre did it longer. Different era. Rice Brown Irvin and several others of his contemporaries were as good or better. Yada yada yada They are both great and I'm still sad Diggs is gone I'm moving on though Go Bills
  18. I know but it's disingenuous to say they added a 3rd without saying they gave up a fourth. All they really did was move up from spot 133 to spot 95.
  19. On paper they added a few nice pieces. The WR, DT, S, RB, and C probably all make the roster. Two out of 10 picks that will probably start seems a bit underwhelming but there really are only a few starter spots up for grabs. Again this is why so many of usxwanted two WRs. Not sure Coleman is worthy of starting but they literally have no one else to play his role. Will be interesting to see if McD plays the rookie safety or plays it safe with the vets on the team. Would be a real shame if he is the 3rd safety all year battling with Cam Lewis for snaps. Now if the DT and RB get sig reps it will be better. Maybe the late day CB makes it if he proves he can return kicks. I don't understand why they took two more OL. There is no roster spot for either. And who can't win a SuperBowl without an undersized STs linebacker??? I kid I kid.... To be fair they didn't pick up a 3rd moving back 3 spots. They just moved up 40 spots or so. They didn't get an extra pick.
  20. Terry is there solely for comic relief. Jimmy is just collecting a paycheck so he can keep fishing. Howie and Stahan do all the commentary work.
