I would totally take Burden or another WR in round 2. Sal capaccio has been banging the drum all week that the Bills won’t draft a WR high because he doesn’t think they’ll get on the field. His argument is that they aren’t going to get snaps from Shakir, Palmer, Coleman, maybe not Samuel. So he can’t seem them spending a “premium” asset on a player that will be 4th or 5th on the roster. This only works IF you think Palmer, Coleman and Samuel (maybe Palmer too) can take a step forward. I have my doubts on both - including Coleman who largely has been the same the type of WR in the NFL that he was in college. I don’t think it’s inconceivable that a rookie WR drafted in R1 or R2 could give you more than Coleman or Samuel. I’m sure they draft a WR but my money says it happens in the 4th or 5th round

I saw the Starks pick yesterday. I can actually see this, especially if they think there’s a lot of depth at DL in rounds 2-4. The only way I’m good with this pick is to see him start beside Bishop. If Bishop can’t start in year 2, that is giant miss by Beane and crew. You don’t spend a “premium” pick for a play who can’t step in and start.

RIP Flaz

I think Maye is already the second best QB in his class. Everyone talks about Williams bad OL in Chicago. Maye’s wasn’t that much better and his receivers were worse and yet, he made more with less. Nix was good in spots but I feel he showed his limitations at points last season.

I don’t see that happen because it would kill off the incentive for a bye week for the #1 team. This has always been a part of the league. Only way I’d see an 8th playoff team might be if they gave the bye to the #1 and #2 seed again

Agreed - but the whole Elam pick is such a mystery. He wasn’t the type of CB that fit the system and it never seemed like his position coach (John Butler) ever wanted him. McDermott and Beane always seemed to challenge him to step up publicly for 2 seasons. Finally when the Bills had to go to Elam in the post season be KC and played more man defense (his speciality), he absolutely sucked. I don’t buy the “panic” narrative as it doesn’t fit Beane’s MO. But the Elam pick continues to be a head scratcher

It all depends how the board falls but they are in a pretty good position from a roster standpoint. The one glaring hole IMO is going to be CB2. They need to come away with a player that is good enough to start as a rookie. I feel this can be addressed in rounds 1 or 2 but where is anyone’s guess. 1TDT and WR are also positions the Bills need to add. Safety and Edge could also be in play for 2025 and definitely 2026. IMO Beane is going to use some of the picks in R4 and R5 to move up in mid rounds. I can definitely see him “re-cooping” a 3rd round selection lost to Amari Cooper. We’ve seen them lose decent talent like Alex Austin and Nick Broeker as late picks because there wasn’t space on the roster. I think it’s going to challenging for a 5th or 6th round pick to crack the roster at some of the deeper positions so I can see a quality over quantity approach

Keon Coleman and Dawson Kincaid will prove to be bad draft picks. DeWayne Carter isn’t the good

Agreed… Omar had no sources that were saying this and was just speculating based on the Hill/Ramsey situations. There’s probably good reason - you don’t get rid of your best player on offense and defense in one season. I’ll say this - Omar has some very good connections with Dolphins players and their agents. So I wouldn’t be shocked if there was some truth in his premise. The extent though we don’t know

The AI Bot would call stupid ***** like Andy Reid’s “ring around the rosie” debacle

Add him to the list of college prospects accused of a heinous crime/act before the NFL Draft.

His career is going to be somewhat telling as to how honest the draft analysts are. It seems like most in the media are high on Sanders and predict big things. If he tanks in the NFL well know it’s a lot of media hype

What exactly did she say. It might be nice to summarize in a few sentences. There should be a rule against posting a video w/o any preview

That’s the idea IMO. Draft a rookie CB in R1/R2 and let them start. Solid depth and ST ability w/ Douglas and Jackson

Right… for that reason the buyout makes logical sense for management. I can’t figure out what the Jets are doing

If the company is just going to decide who gets let go and who gets bought out, why not just fire the people they don’t think are very good or overpaid?

I don’t understand the point of offering buyouts when they can just fire people. I know the Buffalo News offered buyouts to their longest tenured who were highly paid. But I believe they were members of a union so they had some protections. It seems that a transition to a new coach/GM would welcome an opportunity to review the organization and assess who they feel are not competent

gotta be the worst signing ever. Cleveland thought they found their franchise QB

The problem is Buffalo could come away with 2 CB’s or 2 WR’s in the draft. If that’s the case, you don’t really have a spot for either Douglas or Cooper. We know Buffalo will come away with 1 CB, and that Dane Jackson is the veteran backup. I definitely wouldn’t mind Jackson or Douglas as the CB3 and CB4. It could just come down to money - how much do you want to pay a CB4?

I’d be shocked if it’s on prime time… unless it’s one of those double-header Monday nights.

It not the same injury so Rodgers is not a very good comparison at all. But if you want to compare… the start of the season was some of Rodgers worst football and many attributed it to his torn ACL…I mean Achilles. Third, post injury Rodgers never returned to the level he was at during 2022 - which was a diminished version of the QB he had been a few seasons before. This is why many of us didn’t see the signing move the needle much for New England, unlike some who want to pretend Diggs is the player he was. I look forward to your response which will surely include “….but I said he might not work out!”

He don’t get a lot of things right

Palmer is a much different type of receiver than Hollins. He’s faster and is much better with separation. When Hollins was on the outside, defenses had little problem covering him one-on-one (Same for Coleman). Palmer can actually get opened. Also I don’t think Palmer is replacing Hollins in the locker room as “the glue guy” or as the blocker Mack was. He’s a good blocker but not in the same league as Hollins. So I don’t think he’s filling the same role. He’s going to get a lot of snaps on the outside like Hollins but pretty sure he’ll be used differently
