They have to work together. It would make no sense for the GM to draft guys the coach doesn’t like and/or that don’t the system well. Otherwise you have a Marronne /Whaley situation with the coach yelling out in front of everyone “Get me a freakin’ Quarterback!”

That’s great that Bills has the number of the year the Bills started in the AFL.

Ask Keegan Michael Key

Yeah, while the Rooney Rule is a sham, giving a 3rd round pick to a team for hiring a minority goes too far the other way.

Buddy Nix is holding on Line 1.

Is that league still playing?

But didn’t his wife post a ‘goodbye Buffalo’ tweet after the season?

Maybe they needed more size for their off-season basketball rec league team.

No need to repeat yourself.

He did have 39 receptions for 611 yards last season.

Maybe he rises again.

Jerry Steinfeld?

Boyd was a starting outside receiver before they drafted Higgins. As we get closer to July, only 2months away, the better chance that some of these guys will be willing to accept a 1 year deal for less.

Yes, consider that Kincaid had 73 receptions in his rookie season. The “experts” claimed that tight ends usually take a couple years to be a factor. I believe we can expect more from him this season and he likely will be the leading receiver. Hopefully Brady will run plays for him over the middle and down the seam, as opposed to our previous OC having him run short outs and expecting him to get first downs with YAC.

The more I read about Worthy, the more I liked him. He is said to be a better route runner than he was being credit for. He was more than just a fast deep threat like John Ross. However, with his small size, making it tough for him vs press coverage, he may be best suited for the slot. Unfortunately this team already had Shakir, C. Samuel as slot guys so they needed someone as an outside receiver. Adonai Mitchell seemed to be that guy with speed, but he dropped in the draft, apparently due to personality and attitude presented in interviews. I don’t know if Beane tried to move up for Brian Thomas, but with him being picked only a few picks before 28, it seems it might not have taken much to move up to say 22. So, they traded down twice to get a 3rd after giving there’s up in the Rasual Douglas deal. Now, is Beane telling us that, with the 28th pick, he felt there were enough WRs they liked that they felt they could move down and still get one? Worthy, Pearsall and Leggette were then taken before they picked Coleman. Did they have them all rated fairly even? I would’ve actually expected McConkey to be taken before Pearsall and Leggette so they valued Coleman over McConkey then. As many have said, I still don’t understand why they didn’t throw a dart at another WR over developmental O-Linemen. Then they only signed 2 as UFAs, neither of which is speedy. I just can’t believe that they’re happy with Coleman, Shakir, Samuel, Isabella, Hamler, Shorter and Shavers. I guess some of these guys may be better than having drafted one with a 5th round pick as most were with the team last year. I hope they know what they’re doing because right now I have my doubts.

I’ve noticed that many pre-draft mocks and evaluations quickly disappear after the draft. They are not left for people to criticize. Unfortunately for GMs, their draft history is available for everyone to evaluate and criticize. Even though those jobs may sound fun, they have to have some thick skin. Look what Beane had to go thru after drafting only one WR.

The first word is the key word

Samuel ran 4.31 at his combine but deep passes don’t seem to be a major part of his game.

Beane actually had to mention that they were signing someone and this is the guy?

Yeah, he’d get standing ovations at the first open practice, preseason game, etc.

Yes, Boyd would make the receiver room look a lot better. He was a starting outside WR before they drafted Higgins.

Was he talking vet WR or UFA?

Yeah, thought he was from a few years back. He’s 31 and the head coach at Williamsville South.

That’s got to be just a local school sentimental addition. He was terrible.

Wait , so he’s a gunner named Britton?
