Palmer is going to surprise people this year. He's not a star but I bet he becomes a reliable target who separates and catches the ball.

1. Shakir 2. Palmer (drop-off after this) 3. Moore 4. Kincaid 5. Knox 6. Coleman 7. Samuel I'd like to see Coleman take a step or two up this season and be a reliable WR #3. Same for Kincaid: be a consistent target. Love Knox as a teammate and he makes some acrobatic catches but I don't think he's a consistent threat. Samuel has a lot to prove later in his career. Moore I think can get use 600 yards of so because he's done around there many times before. I think we have two good and reliable options right now; would like to see four.

When something makes @BADOLBILZhappy, you know it's special!

This started because some dude was telling "Joe" how much he liked his show. I pulled back the veil. So most of us figured it out but not everyone.

Hey man, if you're good with sharing it, it's all good! Kinda feels a bit like an Office episode but rock it!

I am and here's a screen shot as proof. The user formerly called HerdMentality changed his name to "Joe Marino" as retaliation for Joe "stealing" his username without compensation to use as the name for the real Joe's SubStack community. This is NOT the podcaster Joe Marino. It's some angry regular dude.

I'm pretty sure he's not the podcast Joe Marino (or any other). I believe this was a dude called "Herdmentality" in the past and he wanted compensation from Joe Marino as JM's substack is called that. The poster considered that intellectual theft or something. So he changed his user name in retaliation. Naturally, of course. Moderator's can correct me if I'm wrong but I think that's the case.

Is that 10 million under the current cap number or the projected 2026 cap? If the former, we're in really good shape. At least relative to the past few years.

Watch this starting 12:30. Around 16:30 Marino cites these stats: Out of 141 qualifying WRs, Palmer ranked #5 in route win-rate against man coverage and 10th against zone coverage. And the Bills faced more man coverage than any other team last year because teams did not respect the Bills WR against man.

I'm pretty sure his separation numbers were top-5 in the league. If you're gonna reference stats that's a good one to point out.

Not gonna read through almost 30 pages on this but funny to see it blow up in sports media everywhere. I know it's not popular but like @Coach Tuesday I would not be surprised to see Beane apologize shortly. Even if he doesn't mean it, just for optics. I don't think the Bills organization likes the attention this has gotten.

Good to know about his build. I personally would never want a 154 lb player unless he was the fastest and most elusive guy in the world. And even then...

Moore is under 5'10" and weighed 178 at the combine. He may have put on a few pounds of muscle since but I doubt he has the size to block at the level the team expects. Very curious.

I guess it depends on your assessment of certain players. I'm no draft expert but guys I trust liked Royals and Horton who went much lower in the 4th and 5th and we're there for the Bills.

He used the word "B word" four times in a couple minutes. I know it's not 1950 and that word is semi-acceptable now but that shows at the very least he's quite annoyed. Not unhinged but upset. I think the fact that Beane and McD in the recent past (was this a talking point last off-season?) said we had to add more explosiveness to this offense and yet we never addressed that is the big point. Palmer has some verticality to his game and he separates but he's not explosive. Very, very few people were asking for a WR in the first three picks but there were guys that ticked that box and had good consensus grades there to be had in the fourth or even fifth rounds. It's not binary: you can go D heavy throughout most of the draft and still take a WR in the 4th or 5th. That's not unreasonable. That's what most critical fans are talking about.
