Saint Doug

This guy doesn’t play the Giants anymore?

Kind of reminds of how deep WR was last year. But, he we are.

This is fine. Our offense didn’t have any glaring issues last year. OTOH, our defense was sieve.

So, Garrett chooses money over winning. I guess it’s fine not getting him.

We should just promise not to Franchise him if he shows up to camp on time. Franchise tag would be $13.6M. It would then be up to him to have a record contract year. He’ll actually hurt his own cause if he holds out on a contract year.

Still older than Edmunds.

Proves he was the right pick for them.

We do get something from keeping him though. We get a year of his service in his prime for a relatively small salary.

A 4th and 15 from the 30 is an almost guaranteed throw up for a defense PI call. I don’t think officials would be able to help themselves. Edit: on 2nd thought, I think I would prefer a Hail Mary situation. Of course, this would mean the Bills lose another game a season. But these are more exciting than on-side kicks which usually don’t convert.

I’m Not so sure this was luck. They could’ve traded up more and o pick another QB. I don’t think it was just reaching for what’s left, although they have done this with other 1st round picks. I’m going to give credit where it’s due, however I still agree with Monos; other than Josh, their 1st and 2nd round picks have been abysmal. What ifs are fun, but I wonder if we have a Super Bowl already if we didn’t trade with KC in 2017. I’m not even saying we should’ve taken Mahomes there, but if we didn’t trade with KC, another team very well have taken Mahomes instead of KC. Maybe an NFC team. Or one not coached by Reid.

The only impact player on this list is Benford. I get that these other players are decent, but if you play them all $10-15M, we’ll have no room for true game breakers. I’d rather pay for elite and non-elite than a bunch of average players.

Jim Monos can be coach GMs like the best of us, but there’s a reason he is now an “analyst”. That said, he said many things everyone has already been saying out loud. Their selections in the 1st and 2nd, where you have a better chance of landing an elite player, are lacking. Most are reaches based on need (“the last player we had a 1st round grade on”). They need to do better. And McD is who McD is. We need to accept this. I wouldn’t pay a RB $15M who can barely get over 1,000 yards either.

This is fine. We get another year of cheap production. He can then make his $15M elsewhere and we can take the 3rd/4th comp pick. 1,009 yards in 17 games is not worth $15M. Davis will probably be ready to go by then, but we can spend a 3rd or 4th on another RB.

Wish him the best of luck.

Because he’s a dick. That’s why.

Question for those who know more than me. Is the Philly D playing mostly man coverage?

Love it.

This is kind of bittersweet. No one deserved it more than Josh, but I know he would trade it in a second to be playing this weekend.

The most important question hasn’t been asked yet: how did this guy’s defenses do against the Chiefs?

Unfortunately voting occurred after the game, but the KC game just highlighted what Josh means to this team. Outside of Josh, we have few, if any, high impact players. Maybe Cook, but beyond him…nothing.

As soon as I read undersized, it was an immediate no. This may not have been a problem in college, but will be a problem in the a NFL. Plus, DB is a bigger need.

Probably was a much different era. Back then, draft picks really were supposed to develop on the bench, some for as long as over 3-4 years. In the salary cap era, many draft picks are expected to start on day 1. Draft picks are viewed with much more value now than then.

I would love for people to run the numbers for postseason only. With Josh as QB, what players and coaches do in the regular season doesn’t really matter. How do they respond in the game of their lives?

Defensive is a much larger need. We only have 1 CB, we have a handful of backup safeties, linebacker is not a need, our defensive line is either too old, not skilled enough, or too small. In fact, our defense needs a complete overhaul.

Not sure if this has been posted, but just another piece of evidence McD is way over his head compared to Reid: https://www.si.com/nfl/chiefs-brilliantly-copied-play-afc-rival-burn-bills-for-two-huge-touchdowns#:~:text=The play is a simple,on the Chiefs' opening drive.
