Coach Tuesday

I gotta give Beane credit for being in the conversation here, regardless of what happens. Major credit.

DeCosta.

Is this English?

Maybe the best pass pro guard in football. Would be a great get.

Vontae Davis was a corpse in the preseason last year. So was Clay. Maybe it was too late to address at that point - but frankly those issues showed up on tape at the end of 2017.

He hasn't exactly been a bust - his talent has flashed, he's been hurt a lot. The concussions scare me, and the Bills don't exactly have a great track record when it comes to medical evaluations. But the talent is definitely there and at the right price, it's definitely a risk worth taking. The problem for Beane historically has been his tendency to poorly evaluate the medicals and then fail to have a Plan B.

Not far enough.

Isabella is now a second - at least.

Been a long time since the Bills made a bold move. Just not Botterill's - er, Beane's - style. Which is a shame.

See now that’s creative

I saw that too - it makes sense - and part of it, also, is the CBA and the lack of practice time you get with young QBs and all of your offensive linemen. Pass pro is just not what it used to be, and inexperienced immobile pocket passers (like Rosen, actually) are just not worth what they once were.

What's a VCR?

Dude thinks he’s Napoleon.

One year deal def keeps DT on the table for the first round.

I agree. He IS soft. That's why Zimmer doesn't like him, I suspect. And it wouldn't exactly be "creative" to go sign an expensive pass rusher in free agency.

He certainly knows Phillips - wonder if he helped recruit Phillips.

I could see this. The Taylor comp is about right, he is kind of built like a defensive back like Taylor. He seems to have a good first step, no?

Good thoughts - what do you think Thomas would cost? Former top five pick, no? And still young and on his rookie deal.

Steve Smith once beat up a teammate with a folding chair during film study. True story.

Would be amazing if the Dolphins trade for Rosen and he, Allen and Darnold are all in the AFC East.

It's not the limited resume it's the obvious red flags. Change of direction issues are a huge red flag for any receiver, as are injuries. The way Metcalf is built, he is unlikely to overcome either of those things. Metcalf is the kind of pick that gets GMs fired.

God forbid you leverage the talent on hand...

I know we're arguing about a hypothetical scenario (will never go to trial) but I highly doubt evidence of the other 19 comes in.

He's just a slightly younger version of Ivory. He's a plodder, you can find UDFAs who do what Howard can do.
