Antonio Brown: Apology Tour - Preparing for return?
Lurker replied to BringBackFergy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
And when the money's gone, this is what he'll have in his videos...(hey Mods, don't delete this one) -
+1 It's the biggest off-season for the Bills in 20 years and so many people want to live in the past and whine (Hey, that's what should be written on Sully's tombstone some day). The happiest and most successful people in any walk of life are those who can turn the page and not dwell on past 'what ifs.' The opposite is true for those who can't or won't...

That's was a 30-second Google search. I'm sure a little more digging would come up with a longer list. LBs and defensive players also seem more successful as coaches than offensive guys, based on that quick scan of the Interwebs. BTW, are you dyspeptic by nature or did you perfect it over time? Asking for a friend...

Tell me who this reminds you of: WEAKNESSES Can be inconsistent in his approach. Needs to play inside the offense and show more discipline. Too eager to go big game hunting. Ravenous appetite for the explosive play can also bring unwanted trouble. Willingness to default to playground style appears to limit his ability to get into a consistent rhythm. Needs to improve anticipatory reads and learn to take what the defense gives him. Decision making can go from good to bad in a moment's notice. Operates from a narrow base and allows his upper body and arm to race ahead of his feet. Has a dip and wind-up in his standard release. Explosive delivery and follow-through causes some throws to sail. Needs better touch on intermediate and deep balls. Carries ball a little low in the pocket. Impatient. Will leave pocket prematurely rather than standing in and winning in rhythm. Better as a scrambler than pure runner. Looked a little less mobile in the open field this season. DRAFT PROJECTION Round 1-2 SOURCES TELL US "He's got a great arm, big balls and he's mobile. He is going to drive his head coach crazy for the first couple of years and there is no getting around that. If it clicks for him and he's coachable, I think he could become a special quarterback." - NFC executive http://www.nfl.com/draft/2017/profiles/patrick-mahomes?id=2558125

Lots of interesting players to watch in practice this week. Per Peter King's column ?: “Best wide receiver class in my 22 years of scouting,” Senior Bowl executive director Jim Nagy told me Sunday Guys to keep an eye on: https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/senior-bowl-2020-comprehensive-scouting-primer-about-this-years-pre-draft-event-in-mobile/ https://www.cover1.net/c1-draft-podcast-senior-bowl-preview-and-national-championship-fallout/

After they retire, most players don't want to put in the hours it takes to move into coaching. Kuechly seems like the kind of guy who would, just like these guys... https://bleacherreport.com/articles/869309-top-26-former-nfl-players-turned-coaches#slide24

Agreed. Breaking away from his legacy in Charlotte would give him more freedom to just focus on coaching and personal growth. Buffalo would be ideal. We have a great medical system here, so his wife would have many options. He and his wife are devout Catholics, so we check the box on that aspect of their life. And finally, what better place for a young family (2-year old twin boys) to grow up...

From today's Peter King piece. It immediately made me think of Edmunds and what a great coach Kuechly would be for a young LB corps here in Buffalo: https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/01/20/patrick-mahomes-chiefs-49ers-super-bowl-liv-fmia-peter-king/ King: Three years ago, I went to Charlotte to record a podcast conversation with Kuechly. My favorite part of the pod was when I asked: What advice would you have for young linebackers who want to play like Luke Kuechly? Kuechly: “I think the biggest thing is being able to get off blocks and shed (Edmunds biggest weakness). That’s engaging and disengaging, so use of hands and understanding where to strike offensive lineman. You get ‘em in the chest and you get their hands off you. Because if you’re blocked, you can’t make plays. So that’s the biggest thing. You gotta just separate for just a second. You don’t have to throw him, you just gotta get off him. Use of hands is the biggest thing. “The second thing is effort. Just play hard (which is Edmunds greatest strength). As a linebacker, if you’re running, if you’re playing hard, you’re gonna be in the right spot more times than not. You’re gonna make a lot of plays. That’s one of the biggest things that I’ve learned: Playing hard and effort beats everything else."
