OL Jonah Williams takes it to another level.
Bill from NYC replied to Tipster19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This doesn't surprise me one bit. Anyone who listens to this kid in an interview will hear that he is a very smart kid. Absolutely! His coach invented this term when our coach was in college, or perhaps high school. Seriously. I hope so BB but the strength program he comes from might be second to none. I still think that the possibility of him playing guard, at least initially, is real. -
Exactly and btw, I remember TJ as a capable blocker.
-
I hear ya bro and I don't want to appear harsh with you. If Whaley produced wins, I would soften my tone wrt his ability as a GM. That said, I doubt that he will ever again work in that capacity. Jmo.
-
I am pretty sure he had some injuries. TJ is strong and always had reasonable speed, as well as good hands and moves. Imo there is little to no risk in signing him and I can picture him down the road winning a game for us.
-
I'm pretty sure that I heard something like that as well.
-
Smart move!!! He is a very versatile player and will be an asset to this team if he stays healthy.
-
This imo is not true. It is about the team winning, not about having a "good" corner for a few years. The Bills did not have a good quarterback. They walked away from an already great one as well as another very promising qb (Watson) and drafted a cornerback. There can be no justification in this. Stupidity like this is reminiscent of the Levy/Jauron years.....an almost unmatched era of idiocy.
-
The Bills were minus not just the quarterback. They were also minus precious cap space and draft picks. Whaley had the discipline of a 7 year old alone in a candy store.
-
You make good points, but Whaley's mistakes were huge. Before this article, I assigned all of the blame to McDermott for botching things up wrt Mahomes. Now it seems as if Whaley had a large part in this, and it doesn't surprise me.
-
Whaley was just awful. He had zero discipline in the draft and overpaid mediocre players. He mortgaged the future to draft a wide receiver, this with no quarterback. The day Whaley walked out the door was a great day for this franchise. We can pretend all day that he didn't suck but he did, big time. Oh, and if he was any good, he would have a job right now as an NFL GM. I doubt if any team will ever be stupid enough to make that mistake ever again.

SNY Jets determined to trade down
Bill from NYC replied to Reed83HOF's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The group of WRs coming out next year will be much better in 2020. I would hate to miss out on one to move up for a better DT. Jmo. -
When, If Ever, Does it Stop?

That is awful no doubt. I do however wonder exactly when the Yankees learned of this. -
10 draft picks - Gotta trade up
Bill from NYC replied to OldTimer1960's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I would love a trade down which could get them an extra #1 next season. The receivers coming out will be sensational. -

Then she adopted a dialect that she thought made her sound African-American, complete with comments about hot sauce. Now, AOC is almost as vile. I say "almost" because she looks better. We have O' Dork writing poetry about killing kids and his genitals. The dem party is off the cliff insane. I am not a fan of many repubs mind you but the dems are getting sicker each day, and I thank them immensely. -

Nasty ethnic/regional slur notwithstanding, Hillary Clinton is from Illinois. -

Maybe the Clinton Foundation can step in with a few million. Chelsea's wedding is over so why not? Oh wait.....the foreign division of the foundation closed down immediately after she was unsuccessful at stealing the election!!! Never mind. -
This is 100% true. Back then many posters thought that Big Sam Adams could play nose because of his size but he absolutely could not (nor did he want to). Otoh Ted Washington was like running into a brick wall, and if he wasn't doubled (or even tripled at times) he would even get the occasional sack. And as far as LBs go, I heard Nick Saban say that some Bama linebackers that were stars years ago would not even be starters today. The difference is probably even wider in the NFL.

Tell me, how does something like this fit into the BPA theory? In other words, would it be wise of the Bills to draft a less talented OLB than Miller in order to get a scheme player? This has often confused me. Btw I have always preferred the Wade Phillips 3/4, but a team Really needs the right Nose in that formation. Does the "passing league" situation work against the 3/4 or does it not matter?

Jags RB TJ Yeldon visits Bills
Bill from NYC replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeldon has always been a versatile, strong, talented back. His career didn't take off in the way I expected it to and I think that this was at least partially due to injuries. I don't know what he has left but imo he is worth a look for the right price. -
I know what you mean wrt Newsome. It would be crazy if he went to the Skins!!! I have seen every game Miller has played and really did notice steady improvement. He never played on a bad defense, the talent around him was consistent but did not improve from season to season as Miller did. Would a kid like this be an asset in Nickel Packages? I am thinking that he wouldn't have many coverage responsibilities in a nickel and could just go after quarterbacks.

TSW Mock Draft 2.0 - Completed!!
Bill from NYC replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Check out my PM. -
Christian Miller - OLB - Alabama Miller is an unusual player in that he has a low floor and a very high ceiling. He is more of a pass rusher than anything else and he truly does get off the LOS in a heartbeat. The kid is 6'4;" I have seen him listed at 247 but he appears to be lighter to me. If he puts on some weight and muscle he could develop (imo of course) into a great pass rusher. If not, the possibility of him getting shoved around by strong OTs does exist. Miller is a very smart kid, and there is video on you tube of him running around an OT, grabbing Kyler Murray, and tossing him like a frisbee in the playoffs. He is a gamble, but easily worth a 3rd imo.

I see and understand your point. The fact however is that the Bills passed up on superior players to draft Whitner. Not only that, I heard Levy say on an interview on Sirius that he turned down numerous trade offers for that #8 pick. He even said that some offers involved more than a trade down in round 1 and an additional 2nd round pick. The day that pick was made, I predicted that it would set the Bills back 5 years. Was I wrong? Whitner collect approx. 36 million CAP dollars. There was no rookie cap in those days. You are correct in that anything can happen. Maybe Ngata would have got hurt, I don't know. What I do know is that he was a far superior player to Whitner, and that the Bills needed Ngata more than they did an undersized safety.
