Coach Tuesday

Yes.

Dude - knock it off - I'm reporting the next one.

THIS IS NOT A TYROD THREAD

Hey Ryan? This is not a Tyrod thread, please go somewhere else if you're going to troll another thread with that stuff. Gunner, to me, the question is whether Shannahan Jr. views Trubinsky as a Matt Ryan-type player he can mold his offense around. If so, that will cause a run on QBs moving everyone up. If not, it's very possible there are QBs to be had in the middle to end of the round.

Make the Ryans Great Again

Agreed. Dare I say, Trumpian?

Nice work.

Some of us called this in November...

Ehr mah gerd

Franchise QB, patient owner, bad division = great opportunity.

Howard will land with a patient team like the Giants or Ravens and play at a high level for a decade.

I think you're underrating Gilleslee a bit Badol - his running style looks just like Fred Jax - great balance and vision. He will be successful in other systems if they leave (and his Instagram post last week suggested that he thinks he's leaving).

I am with you on all of the above. I am still not sold that they gave Tyrod the right contract at the right time.

Do you have an opinion about Tyrod, Ryan?

I mean, I guess - but he had put some bad tape out there by mid-season and it wasn't all because of the scrub WRs he was playing with - he was missing open reads all over the field. I agree he improved by the end of the year but still, seems to me the better approach would've been to wait. I suppose it's possible that his agent effectively told the Bills "it's now or never" in August and if so, Ty has bigger balls than I thought...

Not sure I follow - what if they had waited until mid-season? Couldn't they have dropped the price for 2017 by about $10M?

Will someone explain to me why the Bills had to give Tyrod that contract at that time? They did this to themselves. Whaley continues to amaze me.

I wish they charted slip-and-falls, both on and off the field. The Bills would be a mile ahead of the next closest team. In all seriousness, perhaps this at least will force them to fix the RT position.

I know that's a popular viewpoint here - KTD says the same about Sammy - but I disagree with it as a team-building approach. Yes, you need to collect star players. But no, you can't do so without considering the limited draft and cap resources you have, and the overall context of your roster. You also have to consider the value of the player in the context of the talent pool available at the time; BB wrongly believed there were other comparable options at WR in that draft (he was wrong); some of us rightly believed that the talent that Sammy possessed wasn't sufficiently unique considering the depth of receiver talent in that draft (OBJ, Evans, etc.) - we may have been right. Scouting is about acquiring talent. Team-building is about collecting the right talent at the right time, using the right amount of resources. Doug Whaley is a good scout. He is a horrible team-builder. If the Falcons made that trade without already having Matt Ryan on their roster, it would've gone from incredibly expensive to downright idiotic. See: Sammy Watkins.

Chris Wesseling had better hurry and return that book to the library. LOL Jonathan Baldwin. BB has never been great at evaluating college WRs. That said, I didn't think Julio would be this good - he struck me as more of an athlete than a player in college.

All of the guys they targeted for OC run a more sophisticated passing attack than anything we've seen here in quite awhile. Perhaps they're finally understanding that points are generated by the passing game; wins are preserved by the running game. You need both.

You want wins? I have lots of wins. I have the best wins!

He is going to focus on translating for the QB how Dennison wants his offense run. As for the KC wide receivers, I really don't hold that against this guy - Alex Smith HATES throwing more than 4 yards past the LOS.

He deserves it - it's very courageous to tackle shoulder-first.
