Lol the comments on Twitter about not going after WR - in a draft everyone acknowledges is weak at WR. Kyle Williams? Don’t care Noel? Don’t care Luther Burton? Don’t care The league is usually right - if those guys are legit they don’t drop out of the top - 60 No Nate They are bigger reaches then TJ Sanders

Bills First Rnd pick in 2025 draft: Maxwell Hairston - CB - Kentucky
Mango replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'm not the draft guru that others are on this board. But going through YouTube, these comments, and a bunch of prospect profiles and I the only one who thinks he reminds me of.... Leodis McKelvin Tremendous athleticism. Can run with anybody and everybody. On the small-ish side. Needs to get stronger. Sometimes trouble tracking the ball. I was a McKelvin fan btw. He played 9 years. Good cover corner who struggled to track the ball at times but almost never got beat. Not a world beater but a decent starter in the NFL. With the 11th pick everybody wanted a Nate Clements replacement. We got a solid starting outside corner. If McKelvin were picked 30th people would have viewed him differently. (Aside from that kickoff he fumbled) -

Nate Clemens was also a guy like that early in his career before he lost that edge. One of the few guys that can directly affect a scoreboard if you're not careful with the ball near him. -
Well, I too use PFF, and often, but only because It seems to be the only rate every NFL player site there is, though that may be because I am being lazy. But James Cook sure seems to be one of the best backs in the NFL, has elite speed, vision, ability to use his blocks, made a surprising turn to successful power running each of the last two years, as he transformed himself physically to become that, and is one of the best pass catching backs in the league (though not used nearly enough in that respect). I think one of the missing elements in all of these Cook debates is the stance of the posters on the importance of the running game. On a scale of 1-10, for example, how important do we believe it to be in the Bills' success, in them taking the next, championship step? I believe that may be a tell tale sign of why there is such dichotomy in the views on Cook. For example, I believe the importance of a high quality running game is close to a 10 for the Bills right now. Over the last four years each time they have started to commit to the run they have become almost unbeatable on offense. This has been true, such as last year, from beginning to end (and it may not have ended if they remembered this...) and mid season, such as post Dorsey and under Daboll, when McD seemed to force Daboll's hand, and they did not lose again. On the other hand, some think the running game is not very important at all with a guy like Josh, and others are somewhere in the middle. I think people's views on this are likely playing a very important role in their views on Cook, as it greatly influences my own. For me, the Bills' elite running game, added to a team led by one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game, seem to make the Bills almost unstoppable. The combo of those two elements, this aspect of complimentary football, is the thing, if fostered, developed, that will give the Bills its first NFL championship. And with James Cook we finally have the kind of elite--and very rare, despite the nonsense from so many that he is not--running back capable of taking the Bills to that next level. And, if the Bills know what they are doing, keeping us there for years. The Bills do not use the franchise tag, have not since 2006 with Nate Clements. I think the current leadership also finds it distasteful, almost a violation of the culture and trust they have established. They almost always treat their players like men, who have free will, and have never used that tag. I cannot imagine them using it on Cook if he does not want them to next year. When you say that you would welcome a 3rd or 4th round comp pick next year for Cook, you completely lose me. It is the same type of compensation the Bills got for their last great running back, Marshawn Lynch, the best player on the Bills at the time and one of the best running backs in the game, a true beast. Teams that give up their best players for peanuts are bad teams, ones not likely to contend for championships. You cannot give up elite players, they are so rare, and somehow hope to replace them with mid round draft picks. The Bills would just be spinning their wheels, year after year if they engage in such nonsense.

I was waiting for this... LOL... didnt feel like it was an all in take my response would be those superbowl teams may have been THE most talented teams we have ever seen.... So McD gets Kelly, Reed, Lofton and Thomas... in that group I only put JA as better then our current team... Oline comparable... Defense he gets HOF Bruce Smith, All pro Bennett, Conlan, Talley, L. Smith and excellent Nate Odomes and Kazoo at safety... I think he finds a way to get one done with those guys... jmo

Which is factored in to Nate Silver’s mean.

What positions teams invest the most in (in the draft)
SoTier replied to Mikie2times's topic in The Stadium Wall
The Bills "over investing" at RB wasn't about "losing a valuable pick at a position losing value". In the early 2000s, RBs were still valued. It was about the team philosophy that emphasized maximizing profits over winning. Consequently, the Bills rarely re-signed the best players they drafted and used high draft picks to fill the holes created by losing those players. They did similar things with DBs as they did with RBs, letting first rounders Antoine Winfield, Sr, Nate Clements, and Donte Whitner along with 2nd round DB Jairus Byrd, all excellent DBs with multiple Pro Bowl and/or All Pro awards, leave while keeping first rounder Leodis McKelvin who was not nearly as good as the DBs they allowed to leave. The Bills weren't missing on high draft picks at RB and DB and needed to try again and again. They spent a lot of draft capital replacing good players that they didn't want to spend the money to keep. -

BearNorth replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall
So I took Pro football Reference, Approximate Value for a career, - I only picked players with 5 or more Buffalo seasons, and the top three CB's using that rubric are Butch Byrd [Career AV 11}, Robert James [Career AV 9], and Tre White [Career AV 8.9]. After that long drop off to the next 3, Nate Odomes, Mario Clark & Nate Clements. FWIW. - Deion is the highest graded NFL CB of all time, Career AV of 15. -

Victory Formation replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think that Nate Clements was the best CB in Bills history but Jabari Greer was the most underrated. Terrance McGee was exceptional as well and although Leodis McKelvin never lived up to his draft hype, he was still very good. -

NoName replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall
I can only go back as far as the super bowl era: 1) Antoine Winfield 2) Tre White 3 or 4) Nate Clements 3 or 4) Gilmore 5) Thomas Smith I cant rate Nate Odomes. I don't recall his game enough. -
Who is the best Corner in Bills history?
Logic replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall
It's kind of weird that the Bills have had multiple very good corners where the best parts of those corners' careers came when they weren't Buffalo Bills. Stephon Gilmore Nate Clements Antoine Winfield All very good. All had their best years after leaving the Bills. We used to be the NFL's farm team. Letting rookies get their NFL seasoning for four or five years before watching them move on to relevant teams. Thank God those days are over. -

Who is the best Corner in Bills history?
Allen2Moulds replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall
I have to respectfully disagree. Nate Clements was clearly the number 1 corner, and would draw the WR1 assignments and routinely shut them down or hold them in check. Winfield on the other hand was the biggest pound for pound hitter. Still to this day, there's no undersize player that could hit/tackle like that guy. His son in TB is equally a fan favorite of mine. Another honorable mention, that no one is talking about was Thomas Smith. I always remember the broadcasters saying, no one knows who this guy is, because of the lack interception. Announcers would always say, because QBs never throw his way. -

mushypeaches replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall
It’s tough to judge between the eras because QB play has improved so much that there aren’t the big play INT totals to measure. So it’s more of a case of locking guys down and not giving up catches in man coverage Anyhow, I’m 50 and Nate Odomes was the first great one that I saw play for the Bills. I think he was a solid combination of shutdown and big plays
