Bills sign Chase Claypool, Smoot, Jones
Generic_Bills_Fan replied to Dablitzkrieg's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yea but he joined Miami midseason…that offense is not an easy transition where you can just step in cold and go off. He undoubtedly would’ve been better with a full offseason there but how much better is the interesting question -

I think you do short term when there’s a ton of money at stake. I could see him workin hard to hit one last pretty big contract then he can phone it in Heck that’s probably what he was disgruntled about in the first place. If your teams passing game is garbage that’s costing you money in the future. I’m sure a bunch of teams were interested in him on a deal like this but he’s got a legitimate path to wr2 in Buffalo and josh Allen and chose us -

His last two seasons were uprooted by midseason trades where he was dumped into a new offensive system and the years before that he went for 800+ yards back to back. Don’t think he’s really old enough to just call it quits and likely has to prove he can still play. idk if he’ll return to form but seeing as there’s essentially zero risk this is a great signing. I think he kind of has to have a lot to prove…he’s gotta have a big year to get a modest payday from someone then he can coast if he wants to lol hes not like OBJ who has been rakin in pretty big contracts for years -

I mean he played for pit and Chicago back to back which is pretty much wr hell lol then got traded to Miami midseason. Not sure how high the expectations for him should’ve been in a partial season under a new offensive system. if he gets his head out of his a** and has a full offseason with a team that can actually throw the ball he could be dangerous. If not, cut him. Great signing imo -
It’s all a scheduling mirage with Miami…they always have like a 6 week run in the middle of a season that’s an absolute joke I just don’t understand it. They build an artificial lead then come crashing down when they hit a tough part of the schedule. feels like they should be better because they lost a bunch of games to close out the season but I think 10-11 wins for them was exactly right
-
It wasn’t really an ‘epic collapse’ imo. They just had a prolonged layup game period on the schedule then a tough stretch and fell on their face in the tough stretch same as the year before. Won one game they could’ve lost against Dallas and blew one game against a bad team against tennessee. If you reshuffled their schedule you’d probably get the same exact result with them never looking like they’re running away with it im on the other side of the defense thing but im sure im in the minority haha. I think if we had one of Bernard/milano in place of aj klein that chiefs game is a comfortable win I do think investing in a bunch of pretty good dlinemen is stupid though with the way they have been officiating the playoffs. The amount of uncalled OL holding is out of control so unless you have a beast that’s fighting through that it just isn’t worth it. Seems like we’re adding bigger body receivers to fight through that grabby chiefs secondary/add more run blocking support this year

For those that don’t like the Coleman pick
Generic_Bills_Fan replied to whorlnut's topic in The Stadium Wall
Idk that I agree with the first point lol. Seems like josh tries to laser throws into super tight coverage pretty often if he expects his guy to come down with it. A physical receiver that can come down with jump balls would be a huge asset for him to me it feels like when josh loses faith in a receiver’s ability to catch the ball he starts maybe looking elsewhere even if they have a step -
Coleman = Benjamin, Davis = Moss - Beane players

Oh yea I agree that was just more a joke about how most think tua is not much better than average and he’s about to get a big payday anyway -

Stefon Diggs wasn’t even a replacement for Stefon Diggs down the stretch last year lol. Dude was providing the effort and play making ability of a pretty good wr2 and we were likely a lb injury clusterf**** away from going to the afc championship despite that A guy about to earn a big extension lol -
I mean the infamous 13 seconds game we had Dane Jackson-Levi Wallace starting at corner and they lost mathieu and we absolutely pantsed Sorensen hence all the points in both directions lol nobody was getting a stop down the stretch in that one. If anything that’s proof of how much damage a defensive injury can do and how important defensive depth is The playoff meeting before that yea I guess that’s a fair criticism…we actually had tre white for that one lol
-
If we didn’t fill some of these defensive holes you could give Josh any wr in the league to replace Diggs and he wouldn’t beat an Andy Reid offense in a shootout. That playoff game was a good barometer for what things would’ve been like as we got forced into having some big holes due to multiple injuries in the same position group and man did the chiefs take advantage.

I can see the people saying they know more than our one GM, but when people start to claim to be smarter than all 32 gms that passed on Franklin then I start to go hmmmmm haha
-
Man if gms are getting fired for not drafting Troy Franklin who is left?
-
Admittedly we’re getting into I don’t know much about these guys range haha but I’m seeing him rated around pick 90-100 a lot of places
