Well they did take a 4th round safety with their 1st round pick.... so........

As good as they are at drafting WRs, they  suck at drafting DBs

One of my other VT buddies speculated that they saw T. Edmunds available and mistakenly thought it was Tremaine :lol:

I'm not sure there's anyone who has been more consistently wrong through this whole thing than Allbright.  Seems pretty clear he's just a shill who'll say anything teams want to try to climb the ladder.  If this was Schefter or Rapaport, I'd actually believe it.  I think Darnold was our #1.

I thought the exact same thing when I saw the pick.

It appears that most paid nfl evaluators had Allen over Rosen and the sports tv ex football players favored Rosen.

 

 

Nah.  Sims loves Allen too.  Aikman loves Rosen because he's a UCLA guy.  Guys who've actually played or scouted love Allen, the thought being even at his floor he's a passable NFL QB but at his ceiling he's one of the best in the league.  As Kevin Durant would say, it's the "Blog Boys" who love Rosen.

Not sure what to make of that when Beane said there were "other guys" they would have been happy to take.  If you got your #1 guy then why would you say that?  Why not say, this was the guy we were taking all along regardless of how the other QBs fell into place?

Yep.  The ol' Buddy Nix TJ vs TY dilemma.

This gives me all the more reason to like the Allen pick now. Was not interested in Rudolph especially at 22. Would have preferred Mike White or Lauletta over him.

Not surprised given how much due diligence they did on him 

 

 

That article makes it sound like Rosen wasn't even on the Bills draft board, or if he was they had him below Rudolph.

Landry Jones says hello!

Landry Jones in the opportunities given probably played better than our starting QB!!

I'm just glad it never came to that.   I'm also very glad Denver didn't move back.  To get both Edmunds and Allen in this draft was a huge homerun and not giving any picks up in 2019 is icing on that cake.

I think you're reading too much into his comments.  I believe he was simply saying that the Bills were ready for however the board fell.  If Allen had gone #1 or #2, then "there were other guys" they would have taken.

 

Personally, I get sick of all of the "we never thought he'd be available" and "he was our guy all along" post-draft nonsense.

Interesting take from Big Ben. 

 

I always find it so comical when the media talks about guys learning from vets and getting taken under a guy's wing and all that crap. It is such BS. Why would Big Ben go out of his way to help his eventual replacement? It just doesn't make any sense. It is so overused and overstated. 

 

Contrary to popular belief, Mason Rudolph is in a terrible spot. He's Todd Collins. He is going to be expected to replace a legend, won't be able to do it, the fans will hate him, and he will never live up to the unfair expectations because he simply does not have the talent to do so. I think he can be a serviceable player, but he will never be good enough. 

 

Mayfield is in a good spot. Even if he is just ok, Cleveland will love him. Sam Darnold and Josh Allen are in good spots for the same reasons. Rosen is in a great spot because he'd essentially replace Sam Bradford, whom Cardinals fans have no connection to. Jackson is in a great spot, because, despite the fact that he won a Super Bowl, most Ravens fans think Flacco sucks.

Just glad we don’t have to worry about watching him in a Bills uniform.  Thank you Brandon Beane.  

 

If Ben plays another 3-4 years, getting drafted by the Steelers May have extended Rudolph’s career, just like it extended Landry Jones’.  He won’t have to play much so the league won’t get to see how bad he is

Yowza.  A guy other teams passed over until the third round?

Not feeling all warm and cosy about this idea.

To be fair for QB's you just gotta get your guy. As long as you were right, no one will care or judge when you drafted them.
