YoloinOhio Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Brian Dawkins? How could they get that wrong .. Edited January 15, 2016 by YoloinOhio
K-9 Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Had no idea Brian Dawkins joined our staff. As for what it's worth, not much. It isn't like he's gonna get a bonus for being named PFF's DROY. We all know how well Darby played, but I'd be surprised if he is named by the those who vote for DROY. Peters is the shiny new toy on a playoff team and I think he'll get the most noise because of it. Even though he didn't play as well as Darby. GO BILLS!!!
atlbillsfan1975 Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 He deserves it. Rex threw him to the wolves and he learned quickly. Whaley and Rex made the right call here. I wonder though if this means the Bills will let Gilmore walk?
stony Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 He deserves it. Rex threw him to the wolves and he learned quickly. Whaley and Rex made the right call here. I wonder though if this means the Bills will let Gilmore walk? Not likely. Rex's whole defense is predicated on having two outstanding CBs. Not to mention, Gilmore is the better CB.
boyst Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 peters will get it because the hype and the chiefs. he's not been subjected to the treatment of darby. darby is a different type of cb but they're both very good
Augie Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Not likely. Rex's whole defense is predicated on having two outstanding CBs. Not to mention, Gilmore is the better CB. ....and it seems one or two are always hurt, so you need three or four.... Hard to do. Expensive chess pieces, but hoping for the best.
Doc Posted January 15, 2016 Author Posted January 15, 2016 Taking politics out of it, which PFF did, Darby was the winner. True Peters had more INT's and PBu's, but he allowed 939 yards (the 3rd most) and 8 TD's (2nd most). He also had a far better front-7.

judman Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Apparently pff loves buffalo this year This is true
stony Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 ....and it seems one or two are always hurt, so you need three or four.... Hard to do. Expensive chess pieces, but hoping for the best. No doubt. It's why holding on to the good ones is imperative. I generally have no problem drafting a CB every draft.
Doc Posted January 15, 2016 Author Posted January 15, 2016 and had better safety play And Darby's play slipped right after he took that nasty hit ine the Chefs game. I think he may have played concussed for that game and the next.
Augie Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 No doubt. It's why holding on to the good ones is imperative. I generally have no problem drafting a CB every draft. If we can pluck a Darby in every second round, we can all smile!
Johnny Hammersticks Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Totally deserves DROY. He is only a rookie, and he is already on the verge of being considered elite. Air Beckham knows it. Brandon Marshall knows it. Home run of a second round pick.
metzelaars_lives Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Ehh they were still 8-8. What did he do to get us to the playoffs? Wow he was so amazing! Wake me up when he wins us a championship. Why don't we just annoint him the next Richard Sherman already. You guys are all just Darby fanboys. See how stupid it sounds when you say it about someone else? Edited January 15, 2016 by metzelaars_lives

Are you trying to make this a QB thread?
Uffalo Ills Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 I kinda have developed a hatred towards Chiefs fans. They seem so oblivious to how bad Peters was in coverage this year. He was a liability in quite a few games. Also, there is this persistent argument that Darby only covers #2 receivers. That one makes me laugh. It's almost like they don't know how NFL defenses work, smh.
Dorkington Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Darby was awesome. Hopefully he continues on this path instead of flaming out like a couple of our other young rookie defensive studs have over the last couple of years (Kiko, Preston, looking at you)
K D Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Darby was on a hot streak at the beginning of the year (mostly out of fear of getting torched like he did all preseason) but his play quickly cooled off. I think he played really well for a rookie but he is highly overrated. He's no Gilmore, and Gilmore is not elite no matter what he thinks. Both are very solid corners but they are not in the elite all pro category
