I'd rather have Penny. Penny was outstanding the latter half of the year. The kid is young, hungry, and a dynamic runner. Only real concern is he seems injury prone.

Great breakdown and post! I agree 100%.

Agree and that's why many think the "bust" label is accurate. The term is relative and ambiguous in how it's interpreted. Kind of like the legal term " probable cause." What makes you think he is good? What does he do well? Anyone? Shed blocks? Coverage tight ends? Rush the passer? Tackle running backs? Contain gap control? Rush the passer? Get ints and fumbles? Make big plays? This year I watched every game and 75% of the games I'm not sure I heard his name called. Forget he was on the field. You think you would see and hear from your LB often. Maybe I'm missing something...

I happen to enjoy his website. I don't always agree with his takes and opinions. Generally speaking, I find him knowledgeable and credible. I appreciate his bluntness and how he's not afraid to to take a stance. This is exactly what he did with regards to the Edmunds comment. I really don't see it as "click bait." I completely understand that others disagree with his analogy. However, it does have merit and validity. Just my two cents.

Good at letting running backs block him and missing interceptions. That's a start.

This post is anything but "Lost." It's spot on and I agree 100%. My only concern is the Bill's do have some more pressing holes to fill. I see Edmunds as a "stop gap" LB.

Agree 100%. At this point, Edmunds is not even close to the player Flecther was.

Well said!

Nothing about him screams elite, game changer, or frankly dependable. His play is inconsistent. Imho, he's more a liability than a asset. Many games you never even hear his name called. He gets blocked by running backs and lineman which he cannot shed to make a tackle. Routinely gets burned in pass coverage. Look at how many sacks and ints he has. He doesn't make big play with the exception of missing his gap where an opposing RB runs for 40 yards. I think I've been impressed with two or three games he's played as a Bill. Additionally, he doesn't seem to be a leader. The guy has pretty much under preformed in every area. Sure he's young and can improve. I just don't see it. He isn't the type of LB that leads defenses to championships. I think he's a stop gap kind of player. Hope that helps.

I'd do cartwheels and backflios if the Bill's get him at 25. Instant upgrade from Edmunds.

I agree. Edmunds is a sub par to at best average LB. Over the years, I can remember only a handful of games where he's actually impacted the defense in a positive way. After a Bills game, how many times have you said wow Edmunds had a really good game? Not many for me. Mostly, he's non existent, misses his gap, never pressures the QB, and cannot shed a blocker to save his life. Perhaps, this is being a little too harsh. The term " bust" is relative and subject to interpretation. What's clear in my eyes is that Edmunds has under preformed, not even remotely close to being a game changer, is more of a liability than an assest, and definitely not worth the money he's getting. Frankly, I wouldn't mind seeing Edmunds go.

I prefer Lloyd.

Why kick it in the end zone when you have Siran Neal?

Not sure why people are clamoring for a first round WR? If last year proved anything it was the Bills defense wasn't up to the task. They have holes at CB, LB, interior dline, and lack of a consistent pass rush. I think some younger guys will step it up. However, my pick is a CB if his the BPA. Allen and all his heroics couldn't get the win with 13 seconds left.

I'll take him over McCaffrey. He knows how to get into the end zone too. He isn't worth that. He is overrated imho.

Neither will be there at 25.

Exactly! A voice of reason is refreshing. MC Craffrey is too much of a risk. I'd rather have C. Patterson who would be great in the Bills offense and special teams.

Every time I saw Kirk play he underpreformed. I remember a couple of big games a couple of years ago. I think he might be a good compliment to our receiving core. However, I'm a bit tepid on him. He seems very inconsistent for that amout of money.

Big "if" I must say. His track record clearly indicates he cannot stay healthy. I don't buy you argument on how he would stay healthy on the Bills team. Conversely, I don't buy that he got hurt in Carolina because he was over used. Are you suggesting he gets like 10 touches a game? The guy is like peanut brittle. Hard pass for me.

Because he has a proven track record of being injured. They guy can't stay healthy. What makes you think he will with the Bills? If you want a quality guy for mayne a half season then I get it. He should be nicknamed McGlass...

At some point we will probably watch it with disdain. That game was one of the best games the NFL has seen. It will be replayed often for years to come. For me, a super bowl win will ease the pain.

Sadly, I agree. The opening game vs Pitt really told me a lot about the Bills coaching staff. The players were flat, not ready to play, man handled, and unprepared. Coming out the second half of was more of the same. Little halftime adjustments. Same goes for the Jags and the Colts. Finally, I saw halftime adjustments in the Tampa game. The coaches were not good in the first game vs NE. I'd say the coaches lost more games than they won last year.

That would be a dream come true.

Let's not get carried away with the Belicheat comparasion. I do think McD is a very good coach, has the players respect, and they play hard for him. At times, last year he looked less then very good. A few games the team was flat out not ready to play. For example, Pitt, Jags, and the Colts. Additionally, I felt several times he lacked halftime adjustments and got out coached. Previous years, I felt like the Bills halftime adjustments were very very good. Currently, I believe Coach McD gives the Bills the best chance to hoist the Lombardi Trophy. With that said, I have lost a little confidence in him.

I know it was just a hypothetical. All things even I'd fire Coach McD and hire Payton. I think Payton would bring the fans a super bowl. I'm beginning to question whether McD can close the deal. As someone mentioned, he might be the next Marty S. He certainly choked away the win in KC. He shouldn't get a free pass for that. Next year will tell us more.
