  1. I 100 percent think they did it on purpose and it was a very smart move on their part. Conceded the 1st down, but on 2nd and 1 that's the correct play to save a possible 40 seconds from burning off the clock . The correct move in that situation would've been for the Bills to decline the penalty on that situation. At that point in the game the ability to burn and additional 45 seconds on 2nd and 1 is more valuable than 1st and 10. Perhaps something for McDermott and staff to learn from.......perhaps they can relook the analytics on kicking the fg of death to go up 6 too, while theyre at it
  2. That's where I stand. Listening to Joe Marino, it seems that the stable of you g tackles we have in the pipeline is somewhat promising. I thought maybe from a financial strategic the smart play would be to let another team pay Brown $16-18M per year on the open market, bag the 3rd round comp. pick and have a young guy ready to go
  3. Rule #1 - Never draft a RB in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd round. Rule #2 - Never resign a RB to a 2nd contract, unless it's entirely team friendly Rule #3 - Never hesitate to trade a productive RB on your roster if another team is dumb enough to offer a top 100 pick Rule #4 - Never make an exception for Rules 1-3 So my answer is a firm yes. Cook has enough holes in his game.
  4. Im curious what the price is going to be for the corner sections in the middle tier of the stadium, just outside of the club sections. I had my meeting, virtually, yesterday & unfortunately they're only offering the expensive seats. Cheapest seats I was offered were 10k PSLs and 4k per season. Way out of my price range. I'm not sure I'll renew, but if I can find a good spot in the corners for a 2k PSL and 2k per season I'd consider.......seems it's going to be a month or 2 before cheaper seats are being offered though
  5. We can also compare keon coleman vs any of the wrs that went after pick 46 plus a 2nd rounder next year. One of the biggest fleeces of the draft was the trade up the rams made. Went up about 11 spots in the 2nd round and gave up a 5th rounder and next year's 2nd. I was jealous of that trade down by the Panthers. Would've loved if Beane pulled the trigger on that one.
  6. I've got to put it down on record so I'm going to post here. Despite trying to get optimistic about the Keon Coleman pick, I've gotta go with my gut and how I felt about him prior to the Bills selecting him. I don't think he'll end up being a good WR in the NFL. I hope I'm wrong, and maybe I will be. Maybe his opportunity in Buffalo coupled with getting to play with a great QB will help him tip the scales and he'll become a productive WR for the Bills.........but I'm just not optimistic at all. Listen to any of the smarter guys who breakdown these prospects, whether its Greg Cosell, Matt Harmon of reception perception, or most of the guys over at PFF and they don't like the prospect. Now does that Mena they'll be right? No it doesnt, but there is a lot of evidence that guys like Keon Coleman don't pan out in the NFL. After watching everyone of his targets this past season I cam away very underwhelmed. I didn't see a guy worth of the #33 pick. I don't think he catches the ball particularly well in traffic and for a guy that's not fast and will be covered a lot that's concerning. I also saw blvery little burst. On a lot of his receptions near the line fo scrimmage he was easily tackled by the defense and showed very little wiggle or ability to hit it north/south quickly. I'm very curious what thr plan will be for Coleman because guys like Matt Harmon thought any chance he'd have at success would be with a move to the slot. Similar to how Marques Colston played for the Saints.. But it seems the Bils think hes an X receiver. Time shall tell, hope I'm wrong
  7. I predict Franklin is on the board at #60. I don't think he's going as high as a lot of people think.
  8. Sportsbooks more than agree. Over under on wrs picked is 5.5 Over under on OL is 9.5
  9. I agree. If there was an over/under posted on Troy Franklin I would bet the over if his draft position was set at 59.5. I think he may be available into the 3rd round. His lack of any physicality seems to be a problem for evaluators
  10. Thanks for posting the clip, I was just about to do so myself
  11. Jalen McMillan, WR, Washington. Greg Cosell mentioned a couple weeks back on "the Intel" podcast with Geoff Mosher and Adam Caplan that he heard from some people that's there's some really bad off the field stuff with McMillan. Repeated a second time "and I mean some really bad stuff".
  12. 100% agree its totally OK to be wrong. The part about no one expecting Diggs to be moved is wrong though. There was plenty of smoke. Enough for me to make a post on March 16th that Michael Lombardi was hinting the Bills would love to trade Diggs, and predicting he wouldnt be a Bill this coming season.
  13. That coupled with cover 1s take all off season that there was no way the Bills could afford to trade or cut Diggs. Sal Cappaccio was very much in the same boat this offseason. Dismissed any mention of the murmurs that the Bills might be open to moving off Diggs. Then post trade, he's kind of acted like he was surprised but did leave the door open to it being possible, which isn't true at all. I have no issue with people having a take that turns out to be completely wrong, but just own up to it, and say you got it wrong. Don't try to bend what you've been saying all offseason to minimize how wrong you were
  14. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/lael-collins-17403/#:~:text=La'el Collins signed a 2 year%2C %2415%2C400%2C000 contract with,carrying a cap hit of . 1 year - $1.75M contract fir Collins, according to spotrac. Much more in line with expectations, rather than the "up to" $6.5M that was reported after his signing
  15. This bet would show up in my app in NJ. It's no where to be found. Pretty sure it doesn't exist.
  16. It's a cool article, but the bet doesn't exist. I've scoured the draftkings odds for anything Diggs related. They don't exist.
  17. What they should do is trade down out of the 1st and pick up a 2nd and 3rd for moving down 12 or so spots. Then use those multiple 4ths and 5th to moves around in rounds 2 and 3 and come away with 5 picks between selection 40-120.
  18. That's an insane deal for Tre White. I didn't even think a team would be interested in signing him until about July/August when his injury recovery was a little further along. I thought a 1 year$4-5M would be his market and I was waayyy off. I'm curious to see the guarantees because an Achilles for a CB at his age is a big deal
  19. Perfect buy low by yhe Eagles. Move down 20 spots in the 3rd.....which is about yhe equivalent of a 5th round pick. If he shows anything at all over yhe next 2 years he'll be signed as a FA and the Eagles will recoup a comp. Pick. Good business all around, especially considering hus low salary as other posters have pointed out
  20. Also note that Michael Lombardi on his latest GM shuffle episode said the Bills "wouldn't admit it, bit they'd be interested in moving Diggs". It's his most recent episode and he makes reference to it at the very beginning of the pod. Sometimes Lombardi can be a little bit of a blowhard, but he definitely gets info from sources still. I'm still pretty convinced Diggs will not be on this roster come September. How he's removed is uncertain, but I happen to think his time in Buffalo is over
  21. Javon Kinlaw, DT, 49ers A highly touted draft prospect out of the University of South Carolina, that I'm sure our Carolina connected decision makers know well. He also plays DT a position we need and if he was a stock you'd certainly be buying him on the dip. I believe he's been hurt a lot, but he's got the good. 3 year deal worth "up to" $24M, that's likely more like a 2 year - $15M deal with $12M guaranteed.
  22. I'm mostly with you.....I probably do have him a little too high here. Overall I'm not the biggest fan, and as I stated, his slight frame coupled with not great hands and I don't think he'll be a Bills target
  23. My take changed a little post combine and after listening to some of the film guys I respect most (Greg Cosell). There's a well defined top 3 l, that we all know: 1. Marvin Harrison Jr. 2. Malik Nabers 3. Rome Odunze After that to me there's the next tier, which includes 2 WRs, and I've flipped where I think they'll go: 4. Adonai Mitchell 5. Brian Thomas Jr And I happen to think both will very likely be off the board before #28. I was hopeful Mitchell would eb an option, but after listening to Cosell sing his praises, coupled with his combine performance, I think hes gone. Brian Thomas, I would give a slight chance of being there, but he'll likely be gone too. That brings us to my next tier, and I happen to think theres a bit of a drop-off to this group compared to the 2 WRs listed above: 6. Troy Franklin 7. Ladd Mcconkey 8. Xavier Worthy Everyone knew Worthy was a speed demon and he proved it in the combine. I thought he was a 2nd round type WR due to his slight frame. Maybe he's a laye 1st because the speed is so freaky, but I think he'll be around at #28. He's just a small (super skinny) guy and I'm not sure the Bills will be the team to fall in love with him. The same can be said for Franklin. Super slight build and a higher drop rate percentage is a bit of a concern. I actually think Ladd might be the guy the Bills would like best out of this group, but at #28 it might be a bit rich. One last WR to mention: Jermaine Burton. I know nothing about his off field, obviously, and I've heard some negative rumblings, but as a player.......this guy's got the goods and in the 2nd round I've got that sneaky feeling he might be a Bills target. Will he be there @ 50? Who the hell knows, but I think hes a WR worth getting to know
  24. Legette is not a 1st round prospect. Some smart people who follow these prospects for a living have said as much. He's not a route runner, separator. The Bills need a guy with juice, oily hips and the ability to separate. Legette is not that prospect, IMO
