The highlights were some dump-offs and one nice heave to a blown coverage and a run. Watching the 1st quarter in entirety it wasn’t nearly as impressive as you didn’t catch the misfires between the connections. He has a long way to go, with even more mechanical deficiencies than Allen came in with. But hey, there’s a narrative, he’s the next Allen. Just as with Allen there was a narrative that he was the next Locker.

Yes, he was one of the parting gifts Daboll helped himself to. But the NFL should grant a special 3-man Williams Squad protection for the Bills to make sure there’s always some in the system.

Antonio Williams who should be a Bill by surname alone, rips off a nice 20 yard run.

Tyquan Thornton looked pretty decent earlier but man, he’s built like a q-tip.

Un oh, Bill Murray was dressing up like a zombie again. He’s down.

Eddie, are you kidding? Anyway I was hoping he’d look lousy so his nickname could be “Rhymes With”

That was Mos Eisley Spaceport scary. I killed the power mains to prevent any of that face burning into the screen pixels.

Makes sense. Those who cannot do, teach. Webb looks like Jamarcus Russell after Slimfast. It takes some kind of skill to hit that many DB’s right in the hands and not get picked.

It’s good that Daniel Jones is picking up the offense this year for his role backing up Josh next year.

Malik Willis looks like McNair in that uniform, except maybe for that underhand toss to Wycheck #89

Did Irvin really talk about “how much better Tyrod is than Daniel Jones”? How many years in Federal Prison would I get for taking the amount of mind-altering substances it takes to arrive at that conclusion? I was just coming here to remark about what a trash can the Bills would likely be if they still had that level QB play.

I always quote the Al with his thoughts on the trade: ”We don’t throw long because we got Lamonica, we got Lamonica because we throw long.”

The very first throw that gave me a “sit up and notice” on what was to come was a deep over to McCloud that Allen stepped into, and put right past a LB’s ear hole before he could react and absolutely pasted itself into Ray-Ray’s center mass. Just ridiculous.

i got a full five one-thousand on that one.

As with every Bills loss in 2021 save the Colts game, the Bills did only what they needed to do to lose the game, no more and no less. We used to call this being Billsy, and it surprised me as usually that reflects most on coaching and McD was the antithesis of Billsy in his first-year run to the playoffs with Tie Rod.

Who was in that GDT?

It’s not just the Bills, many teams fans have the Final Countdown stuck in their heads. For example, here is what Jets fans are hearing: Edit: @Draconator beats me to it.

Is there a place for him? Is he enough better than Kumerow at receiver than Kumerow is better at special teams, to justify that? He doesn’t beat out: Diggs, Davis, McKenzie, Shakir, probably Crowder. Can he make it as 7 now that Stevenson is down?

He’d be the most apply named UFA, where Reggie Corner would be the most aptly named draft pick.

Oh THAT friggin' guy. Was it Chris Villarial? There was another retread from Chicago that was even less capable of blocking anyone that came later, that became a measuring stick for incapable guard play: the infamous Vlad Ducasse. At least he was FA and they didn't spend a high pick on him, like they did on Kouandjio. Speaking of other flameouts at guard... Derrick Dockery. Ugh.

He was one of those "measurables" types like Trey Junkin, who was a LB with great speed and no instincts who had a friggin' 20!!! year career somehow after hooking on elsewhere and getting a position change to TE. You gotta wonder how the current regime is (mostly) succeeding with those types of players where they previously failed. Were the coaches bad? Were the players not committed, or just dummies? Anyway, a couple more of those types: "Jumping" John Wendling, a DB whose gimmick was leaping over the OL to block kicks. (Same guy? this is a slightly bigger leap) "Planet Theory" (i.e. only a few guys on the planet can do stuff like this) Mike Jasper who never even had a year to make us wonder about anything except why isn't he in the WWF. Perry Tuttle, great speed, great routes, waffle irons for hands. First rounder who flamed out once teams figured that it didn't matter if you threw it to him, he wasn't catching it. Real-life Featherstone, ever more so than Bucky Brooks.

The original Miller #40, Terry, had > 1000 scrimmage yards as a rookie and never got close to that again. The best example I can think of is Brandon Spoon, made a bunch of impact plays as a rookie LB. Then started tearing muscles and washed out of the league.

Yeah the magic of Kay Stephenson to lose pretty much everything from this point forward. There was fun stuff this game tho: The original FWB Mike Moseley Steve Freeman with the Hyde Joe Cribbs making Bob Crable look like a traffic cone Eugene Marve filling holes Ferguson did throw a pretty ball The guy picked two spots ahead of Jim Kelly (Tony Hunter)

Trading up or back to align your draft value chart to the position you are looking to draft is a much more viable strategy than selecting the next guy on your position list when the guy you really wanted gets snagged before your pick. See: Travaris Tillman after Carolina nabbed Deon Grant. I think Belichick also did it once to the prior FO but I forget the player.
