Bill from NYC

Would you mind translating that into English?

Do you think that your post consists of a defamation of sorts against southern Americans? I am wondering why you think that this is OK? Is Notre Dame your team? https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2019/04/22/ex-notre-dame-rb-cierre-wood-charged-murder-5-year-olds-death/3537699002/

Fair question but Mills was also not helping whoever was at RG all that much either.

They truly must be tanking for Tua.

Good point. It just seems a bit odd to me but I suppose it isn't a big deal.

Yes, the most of all time. How many does the coach of your favorite college team have?

Process all the way. It is embarrassing how he plagiarized that from Nick Saban, who has the championships to back up his call for a "process."

http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4241478/devonta-smith Devonta Smith is best known for his clutch overtime catch in the title game against Georgia. He was only a freshman, but trust me.....he is now a state hero at Alabama. When you look at his stats, remember that Jeudy, Ruggs, Irv Smith, Jaylen Waddle (a name you will keep on hearing), Damien Harris, Josh Jacobs, and Najee Harris also had to see the ball. He also nursed a hamstring problem for a few games and Saban held him out. Devonta isn't as fast as Ruggs and Waddle (they run sub 4.25 40s), nor is he as fast as Jeudy, but he is very quick, has excellent hands, gets open with ease, and is perfectly coordinated. He makes fully extended catches on a regular basis, and I am talking about his entire body being horizontal. He is a quiet kid, one likely to stay out of trouble. Other players on the team talk about how good and unheralded he is. BB, I can't tell you how much I would want this kid on the Bills if he stays healthy.

Thanks for this. I have been posting this for weeks. This list was correct to include Devonta Smith as a top 10 receiver. His hands might even be as good as those of Jerry Jeudy. I already consider at least 5 wide receivers to be first round worthy and there are still approx. 116 days until the opener (but who's counting?)

ABSOLUTE MISTAKE that Devonta Smith isn't on this list. Imo he is a first round pick if he comes out. I also think that Ruggs was under valued, but I do appreciate the effort put into this!

Quinnen is a very good player. Make no mistake, he was the best Alabama defensive lineman last year. The thing is, he only started for 1 season. He needs more work but he will do it because he, from all accounts, is a great kid. Unlike most, I didn't think that he would go in the top 5. I thought that he would be there at 9 for us. There are different ways of looking at the DT situation.....We could say that Quinnen benefitted greatly from playing at Alabama. We could also allege that Oliver benefitted from playing against weak sisters compared to Alabama's opponents. Probably some of both is true. I hope that Williams has a great career and wins games against the Pats, and that our draftees (especially Cody Ford) are pro bowlers.

I think that as time passes, we will see that the 2019 draft class was not a good one. 2020 is going to make this draft look piss poor. Jmo.

Play the WIN 4.

The Panthers got OLB Christian Miller with the 13th pick in round 4. I have a hunch that they will be very happy when they see him pressure and sack quarterbacks. How rich is the Cardinal owner? Does he need the several million dollars he will make on Murray before the season even starts?

Very hard to evaluate this kid. He played behind 4 actually great wide receivers and a very good tight end. He looks good but I am guessing that he was hardly covered. Nothing to lose by bringing him in. If Daboll likes him lets do it!!!

But not re-signed to a contract, correct?

I could very well be wrong but I do not think we re-signed Clements. Wasn't he franchised for 1 year?

I saw a very recent video in which Ruggs and Waddle raced a 40 yard dash. Ruggs won by less than a foot.

Bandit, there are 3 that can come out.....Jeudy (perhaps a top 5 pick), Ruggs (4.25 40 dash time, and actually blocks) and Devonta Smith (a can't miss prospect with great moves, acrobatic, and glue hands). These kids are all sensational. Btw, they also have a great soph playing next year - Jaylen Waddle.

The above is SO accurate!!! I am going to go out on a limb and predict that the 2019 draft actually sucks compared to the one we will see in 2020. I know this is may sound a bit over the top but I am serious. And I do agree that this is certainly a pivotal year for Josh. That said, if these kids stay healthy the 2020 draft will be one of the best drafts EVER at the WR position.

As you well recall, I know the feeling. When the Bills didn't seek to re-sign Levitre, he was a top LG, well suited for the new NFL passing league. To be honest, he wasn't the same after he left; I always suspected injuries to be the reason. The thing I like about Ford is the power, determination, and stamina that he displayed against the Crimson Tide. I was keying on him the entire game, complete with rewinds and the kid only had 1 play which in which I considered him to be getting beat. This play happened towards the end of then game. For decades, I have wanted the Bills to be a tough team. I want other teams to come up to Orchard Park and get beat physically. I was right there with you at Ralph Wilson Stadium watching weaklings like Terrance Pennington and Demetrus Bell play for the Bills. It was not only a disgrace, it was torture imo lol. These were weak players by NFL, or even SEC standards. If we miss on Ford, at least we will be missing with a big badass who held up well against the Crimson Tide and not a Leotis McKelvin or Donte Whitner. For the record: the few times I have disagreed with you about the Bills over 20 or so years, I have been wrong every time I can remember. I hope this time breaks the trend.

Based only on this 1 game, Ford appeared to be more powerful than Dawkins, and less agile. I didn't understand the bench numbers at the combine. Mike Williams more than doubled his reps as I recall but this kid looked unusually strong on the field.

Do you think it is possible that guards will become more important as more pass rush comes from DTs up the middle?

Yeah, that was Raekwon Davis and it was late in the game. It was debatable whether or not Murray's knee hit but Ford did get fooled and beat on the play. On the sack by Jennings he didn't get beat, He broke away from the blocked and took down Murray with one hand. It wasn't Ford's fault.

He looked so good against the Tide that I almost don't care if they put him at guard. If that is where he will be at his best I'm all for it. This kid really seems like a very tough guy and he didn't seem to get tired. He even pulled on a couple of plays.
