Agree it is too way early to say. I would have preferred they hired a football czar and stayed out the way regarding anything football related from hiring coaches to GMs. The mistakes they have made up to this point has set the franchise back a few years. However, we have to see how things play out and I will always be hopeful things turn around. I think the way they are doing it is risky but nothing else has worked so willing to see how things go.

Agreed that Whaley needed to be fired. He had been neutered to the point where he had little to no say in anything going on. However, he was not to blame for the coaches hired. That is on the Pegulas and Brandon. From Marrone down to McDermott none where Whaley's choices and these arranged marriages were doomed to fail. Since the Pegulas have granted so much power and faith to a first time HC. They should give final say to McDermott on who the next GM is. The HC needs to have someone tied to him who he is comfortable with. Pegulas should avoid the mixed message mess they were responsible for.

Whaley was dead man walking for a long time anyway this had to happen. Rex had a lot of input in the draft last year and this year McDermott ran the show. The whole empowering Whaley to make a coaching hire was a farce and I don't believe he had a say in any of the last 3 coaching hires. Relationship was doomed from the beginning. McDemott is now the Defacto GM/HC and whoever he brings aboard will probably answer to him. As long as there is clear hierarchy we have to see how it plays out.

At least everyone knows where the fault lies if things blow up where with the previous setup the lines were blurred and there was no clear hierarchy. It is definitely a risk to trust a rookie HC with this much power but nothing else has seemed to work so people need to have open mind regarding McDermott turning things around. However, the bullseye will be squarely on his back going forward.

Interesting didn't realize compensatory picks could be traded.

CB in a zone scheme is less of priority plus this draft had 50-60 Cbs with draftable grades. At this point so I would attempt to trade back to the top of the 2nd round and get additional picks. Otherwise offensive lineman makes sense and value would meet need.

They just traded up for a major project who isn't even going to play this year. They wanted to jump Arizona for sure and grab their QB of choice.

KC was desperate for a QB and the Bills should have squeezed them for another pick. If we also received another 2nd or 3rd in 2018 I wouldn't have minded dropping so far.

Only the Bills could screw up trading back. KC got off easy.

Better be big haul to drop to bottom of the first.

Drop down a few spots and still get top defensive player

A good defensive player is going to be available. Now the question is do the Bills trade back or stay put.

Come on Jets take Watson

Wouldn't mind either OJ howard or Hassan Reddick and both might be available when we draft. I think Howard will open things both in the running and passing game. If we are going offense I think OJ Howard would be better option than either Mike Williams/Corey Davis. Now if we trade back Reddick or one of the 2 WRs would be my choice then with some consideration to O-line. I am still hoping one of the safeties drop which is a long shot. Safeties are more important in a zone scheme vs corners. Adams or Hooker would be a perfect fit but no way they are dropping to us unless we trade up.

I think he is a dark horse candidate for the Bills at #10. It would be unexpected as most people are projecting him as a late 1st/early 2nd rd draft pick.

Biggest thing going for Hauschka is that we no longer need to carry 2 kickers. It annoyed me to no end that we had to waste an extra spot on another K.

The more I read about Watson the more scared I am of him. Arm strength will be an issue in Buffalo and that alone would be enough to dissuade me from picking him in the 1st. In addition to accuracy and footwork issues watching him on Gruden's QB camp let me feeling unimpressed when it came to his personality. He seems like a mild mannered soft spoken guy who doesn't scream leader to me. If I was going to flame out and pick a QB I would rather risk it with Mahomes if we could trade back and accumulate more picks. He has his flaws for sure but he has some things you just can't teach.

Signing Chad makes sense but only as an UDFA. Kid has probably been entitled his entire life getting his way and being spoiled. He would have to come in and prove himself both on and off the field. It also would not prevent us from drafting another QB in 2018 if things fall apart. I would bring him in say he has 1 shot and if he screws up he is gone. Kid is talented but also appears to be immature and a problem child so clear boundaries would need to be set.

Haha come playoffs with the Bills out of it. My 2nd fav team is whoever the Pats are facing.

These guys do mocks like every day so they have to keep things interesting and switch things up to keep people interested.

Rex brought all of this on himself and deserved to get fired. It was mentioned that this was a 9-5 job for Rex. Rex was on the hot seat last year and put all his faith in his brother to turn things around. Instead of grinding it out and trying to save his job he left it to others to do it for him. It blew up in his face and that is on him. Rookie mistake by the new owners which sucks but hopefully they learned from it and McDermott can turn team around.

We haven't had much success in drafting QBs as it is. Unless one of these guys is a sure fire starter I wouldn't draft them on the hope they develop into something. Plus if other teams are passing it will say all we need to know about this QB class. Teams don't pass up on Franchise QBs. I don't want to go through another EJ situation where we feel forced to take one. At pick #10 if QB is the highest rated player on the draft board go ahead and draft him otherwise you have to stick to picking the best player available.

These sessions are voluntary. Players are going to miss sessions it happens every year. As long as McCoy shows up in shape and ready to go opening day that is all that matters. Over his career that hasn't been an issue with him so while it would have been nice for him to be here it is not a big deal.

Terry Pegula would be the most hated man in Buffalo just don't see it happening. The guy has more money than he knows what to do with. He would be going against everything he said when he bought the team and I don't think he is that kind of person.
