    They play different positions.  Gilliam is a fullback who also plays tight end.  Moss is a running back.  Gilliam is 3 inches taller and 40 pounds heavier than Moss.

    So?....Moss can be  FB and is good in pass pro. How many plays will Reggie see? Waste of a roster spot IMO...unless he's great on ST, IDK about that.

    Right, he's not those guys that's why we would only get 1 first round pick rather than 2.  He's an ALL-PRO and he wants a big money deal.  You can't afford to pay everyone and we have great depth at safety.  It would be a shocker but if they know they can't sign him after this year then it's worth it to get something

    There's no way in Hell they get a decent pick for him. Teams will wait for him to walk.

    Crowder.  Shakir is too good to keep off the field.  Crowder is 5th WR at best.  Crowder would probably start on a lot of teams.  

    Washington or Carolina for a 4th....conditional 3rd. Either could use him especially Baker.

    Was just going to say this.  Shaq is the 5th DE in my reckoning and if they think that there isn't much between him and Mike Love (Beach Boy),

    then it's not a bad move.  Shaq (after the trade) is dirt cheap at $900k.  If there are needed DE teams, I think it could happen.

    I agree, Love is a penetrator.  Shaq is not. I had high hopes thinking he would play like his hair's on fire, but the end results just don't seem to be there.....plus how many DL can we roll with?

    I'll throw out Howard.

     

    As was mentioned in an article, he didn't start, it was Sweeney, Morris, and Gilliam to start the game on the 1st and believe into the 2nd drive.  Then Howard came in and played late into the game so wasn't like Von Miller deal in that we don't need to see what he can do.  His contract is such that not worth cutting him.

     

    Suppose Epinesa, Lewis or McCloud wouldn't be bad names either, but would want at least a 4th for Epinesa

    They did say Morris was faster than most of the receivers. I'm not that impressed with Howard, and I've held out hope for Sweeney. I think it's too soon to pull the trigger on O.J. but I'd like to keep Morris. He'll get poached from the P.S.

    Poyer if they could get a 1st. Seattle gave the Jets 2x 1sts for Jamal Adams!!

    Adams was a no.5 pick and lived up to the billing. We should pay Poyer....with nothing more than a big signing bonus. A 2 yr. deal would be ok, but he ain't Derwin James.

    If that is the case, I am happy they moved on from him, even if he was improving as a player.  It sends a message that if you negatively impact team chemistry, you will be gone.  

    Did anyone see the hands to the face penalty? Didn't that take us out of FG range? If you look at that close up, you can see that here was no need for it because the pressure wasn't that threatening and it looked like he just went straight for that move instead of any traditional blocking technique. I personally thought that should have been the last straw.

     

    They played the replay and you could just see it in his face, he just doesn't seem to be mentally invested in his game....or just not mentally capable.

     

    Now go look at the play where Edmunds got juked and ending up plastering Milano. I rest my case.

    But, but, but… I was told that Aaron Kromer had reformed him into a serviceable player…

    Not going any farther than this. This should have been done on draft night....just like 49, but that will come.

    Sometimes you just miss on those 2nd round Oline picks.  It happens. Signed...Kujo

    Tremaine Edmunds...

     

    I'll see my way out now

    Now that they traded Ford...see the 3rd down hands to the face penalty on Saturday, my guess is Edmunds by the trade deadline. He almost killed Milano by looking like a lost redshirt freshman. That was a major bad move....in pre season no less.

     

    13 Mil. for that kind of play? I'm thinking get a pick now because there's no way in hell he deserves a 2nd contract.

    You mean like Dope and the LapDog?

    Now they're not as bad as when they defended the previous regimes and belittled post game callers.....especially during the Whaley /Brandon era. I think they've matured as well as Chris Brown who used to polish his shoes before toeing the company line. They've come a long way over the last few years.

    Visit the Chiefs board when you have a chance. That place is like the wild west.

     

     

    Wyo started on Buffalo Range for like a decade, then moved on to BBMB during the big purge of 2010. He may have been on the Zone for a little while, but I haven’t seen him since BBMB closed. 

     

    .

    IIRC I am pretty sure WYO  was a woman who...IIRC may have been in the medical field, possibly retired and I believe went to Buffalo Rumblings after the fall of BBMB. Was kinda like a YOLO. Please bear in mind I can't generally remember my last meal so...

    My guess would be Cam Lewis as he can play both safety and cb.

    I'm hoping Spector and when Smith comes off his suspension, hopefully Spector can take Matekevich's place.

    I think he's probably the better choice to backup a LB spot providing more value.

    Hopefully they can end up protecting Lewis and McCloud on the P.S.

    The Bills got him for a 7th - no team was willing to part with a 4th at that time.  What has changed?

    Yesterday's performance aside, a number of teams have no quality backup. Seattle? Denver? Whose gonna backup Tre Lance? Danny Dimes? Also there's bound to be an injury or 2.

     

    Wentz will probably go down, what if Mills or Geoff get hurt?...also see above.  Stafford's tennis elbow may not fully go away...at least I hope it don't for another month.

    I'm just saying that at some point, some team may have a major need.

  12. While I've never been a fan of Ford, WGR certainly praised him after the game yesterday. I admit I didn't zero in on him but one play did stand out...the totally needless hands to the face penalty which I believe was on 3rd down when we were in FG range. Still not a fan.

    Yeah I do get that.  The thing that bothers me the most is watching this guy play.  He IS NOT a impact linebacker at all.  He very seldom makes 1 on 1 plays for a loss or contains a RB out of the backfield with out help.  He just can't a stuff another player one on one.  The problem is both our linebackers are a problem. Milano does not get a free pass either.  Go back to Indy game last year.  Our Linebackers were completely MIA, they did absolutely nothing in that game.  We have had suspect Linebackers for years.  And yes it has cost us wins,  in the win loss column.  

     

    I am hoping that we get better LB play this year.  Because it will be needed to make it to the SB this year.

      That goes on  McFrazier . Playing the nickel religiously cost us those wins. They didn't stop those runs until they let Milano loose. Taron Johnson cannot handle those bigger backs and the Hoodie saw that. If they had went 4-3 with Klein after say...20 straight runs, maybe it's a different story. IMO Frazier is old school and unwilling/capable of game planning on a weekly basis against different teams.

     

     Maybe this year will be different, IDK, but there will be teams that will try that M.O. this year and the only way to counter that is a 4-3....and LB blitzes...ie. Milano near the end of those 2 games. Every team will be looking to keep josh off the field and control T.O.P.  I'm betting next year it's Milano, Bernard and Spector, not counting a free agent or draft pick. Edmunds should be turned into picks before Halloween.

    We are at the point rosters are more or less set outside of some camp battles and you have a general idea of who most teams are. Given the moves this offseason across the conference and league I can't see much happening in preseason that will change peoples opinions. I did this last year ranking each conference with a little blurb for each team. Today is the AFC and later the NFC this week. Agree, disagree, tell me I am idiot and the reason for all of the worlds issue, whatever lay out your thoughts lol:

     

    The Class of the AFC:

    Baltimore- Fun fact they were 8-3 and the 1 seed before the plague destroyed their team in 2021. Whether you love and don't love Lamar (count me as love) they have a strong defense and will impose their will. I believe they are due for a breakthrough postseason wise sooner then later

    Buffalo- Super Bowl or bust no way around it between the addition of Von Miller and overall depth that has been added

    Cincinnati- I think this Cincy team is better then last years but the record may only move up to 11-6 because of the division and conference. Regardless they are an explosive group

    Kansas City- Tyreek takes a scary factor away on offense, but Mahomes is still there and until they are out they are always what feels like the team to beat after 4 straight AFC titles.

    Los Angeles Chargers- Talent wise they can match anyone and they missed the playoffs off of playoff tiebreakers in 2021. I always question what they can do as ownership has forever been cheap and they have no homefield advantage in LA which feels like it will catch them. Either way if you said they are in the SB come February I wouldn't be the least bit shocked.

     

    Playoff Contenders

    Denver- Could Russ and crew take the crown year 1? Absolutely, but I think their best football will be in a year or two as a new coach and system is established. Regardless with Russ they are a playoff team.

    Las Vegas- If you think they should be up higher I wouldn't disagree. But I would like to see the Raiders do more then just a wildcard appearance as that has been it with Carr.

    Miami- Regardless of your belief in Tua (I think he's average with flashes) he just has a stacked lineup around him that he just needs to do enough to make the Phins a playoff team. Biggest issue is their schedule is a buzz saw up and down.

     

    Cleveland*- They are their own category as no one for sure knows how long Watson plays. On paper, strictly paper they are incredibly solid at every spot and Watson pushes them up. But football is loaded with teams who on paper look great and flame out because of pressure and noise. I think they lose Watson for 12 games and limp to a 7-10 season as the pressure and noise mixed with no Watson beats them down. Could they do better? 100% but I honestly think no one has a solid read here.

     

    Could be a playoff team, Could be 6-11 

    Indianapolis Colts- If you buy Matt Ryan then they are a playoff contender, if you think he is past his prime they need the collective whole to carry this team. I am not a fan of their WR corp and I don't know how much more Taylor can do to carry the load.

    Jacksonville Jaguars- Doug Pederson has take a young QB and went places before and now has one who pure talent wise is better then Wentz. I can easily see the Jags offense becoming good pretty quick if they can help build Lawrence confidence and decision making up. Urban wrecked things so bad people forget the hype and talent T Law has. The major question is if the defense can go from being an EZ-Pass to something that can hang around in games. For the record they are my dark horse pick this year and I have them winning the South.

    New England Patriots- I actually think Mac Jones is pretty decent and could have a better year. I also look at what NE surrounded him with and outside of a Marino type heroic performance they have a tall task to compete to the playoffs. BB can only do so much to cover their holes against an AFC loaded with fast aggressive offenses and defenses not based in 1990 conservative football.

    Pittsburgh Steelers- Their skill position group on offense can make noise, can Mitch or Kenny drive the car fast enough to stay up with the rest of their division? The defense will do enough to keep them in games, it is on the offense being potent enough.

    Tennessee Titans- There is data that Derrick Henry already has started to decline going back to last year. They look weaker across the board and while I love Bobby Woods he is not AJ Brown. Their playoff hopes hinge on the Colts staying neutral and winning the division. 

     

    On To The Draft

    Houston- A successful season could be 3-14 as Mills shows he can be the guy and the rookies develop OR Mills isn't the guy and the rest of the young roster improves while getting a top 3 pick for QB

    NY Jets- They already had a daunting task before the Wilson injury with the way the AFC is. Now you hope Wilson shows tangible improvement in less games then desired played, the offense has some pep while the defense becomes a formidable unit, and they finish 5-11 while getting wins over MIA and NE at home.

    Wow, very well done. I would like to stay away from SB or bust if I may. I also haven't heard the latest on Wilson. If he were healthy going in, I would be looking to the 3 teams cannibalizing this season giving the division to us. Can't expect us to go 6-0.

    They did this with someone else not that long ago. I can't remember who though. Cut them early, then signed them to PS later.

    Maybe he was too far down the pecking order to get a lot of looks thru camp. I just don't see O.J. either staying healthy or making an impact, I hope I'm wrong. I also had hopes for Sweeney, I guess we'll see for sure this year which way his trajectory will go. I believe he will have a chance at some point. I hope he gets the bulk of TE duty during one of these pre season games.
