One of those guys are going to get a LB mismatch.Thats where the Yeldon pick up makes sense. He had 487 yds and 4 tds receiving last year. Hmmm ??? but we could have went WR instead of QB ... Butler is a good mismatch & he's still sitting out there

Received practically zero interest in free agency and saw his offensive importance shrink and shrink in Jacksonville. Which begs the question, why did the Bills sign him then?

Kind of ridiculous we are paying McCoy $6m this season. Beane must be worried about the locker room impact of letting McCoy go.
Aussie Joe Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Look.. this 2019 draft is certainly not special like the 2016 Doug Whaley /Rex draft with 3 starters off the bus in Lawson, Rags and Washington, but if Beane can do a deep day 3 dive and come up with another Kolby Listenbee then we might be able to salvage something.. 4 1

You are saying that if I paid somebody twenty dollars and got ten dollars back from somebody else, I am out twenty dollars. That's not spin. It's elementary math. What a fool. I hate Doug Whaley for bringing this crap discussion to the fanbase. After the Watkins trade, Whaley's ***** lice took to the internet to Clintonize the definition of "give up," in an effort to defend the deity that was Doug by minimizing the price of moving up. I doubt this conversation takes place elsewhere, and it's embarrassing.

Yet the posters here think their "work" with YouTube videos have them in better position to evaluate talent. And if it was reverse, people would be trashing the national media. 2
lightning21 Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Head scratcher drafting singletary in th 3rd with te jace sternberger still there. I hope they had dawson knox ahead of him on there board.

Cincy had 11 last year, Denver had 10, Green Bay had 11, and I'm only up to the Gs, in one draft. That wasn't "what those 4th rounders were there for." They were there to be maximized. Could've been used, or traded for more picks, or whatever. You don't have to get all that lucky to do well with a later pick. Milano was a 5th. Taron Johnson too. Fourths especially have a pretty reasonable record of producing contributors. The more picks the better, but if you have a better use for them, that's OK too. So far, this regime has been excellent at the draft, so I'm willing to believe them that this stands a decent chance of being a very good use of the picks. I can get behind this too... but I get the guy's argument of the 4th rd picks... I'd rather them use those lower picks to get better picks rather then drafting Ray Ray McCould & Austin Proehl who's not even on the team anymore. If they can take those 2 7th's along with their 5th... to move back into the 4th...& draft Hakeem Butler... then awesome! I'll take that all day

Dawson creek Knox landing was too expensive. Considering the Pats*** were going to take him until we snuck ahead of them to grab Knox instead, I’d say two 4ths to move up 16 spots while at the same time screwing our most despised division rival is a small price to pay. And when Knox develops and pans out as a good TE, nobody will give a crap about those two fourth round picks, anyway. 3 1

They do some good work like NDT.com Calm down skip, that’s why I was asking - I know BR has some legit trustworthy content creators now - I just wanted more info on this particular guy because I wasn’t familiar with him. BR was founded in ‘07, and has been a cesspool for most of its existence, so not sure where you’re getting your “15 years” from by the way chief. ?

Beane must be worried about the locker room impact of letting McCoy go. He's not your average 30 year old RB, great RB's don't slow down when they hit 30. Shady still has a good 2-3 seasons in him to hit 1200 yards rushing & catch 50 passes. Plus his $6M isn't hurting our cap.

They traded up to get a guy they wanted instead of staying put and taking JuJu or Kupp. I’d not that mad about the trade up (not a huge fan of the guy that got) but it happens all the time. You trade up for a guy and there are better option that are available. They have a lot of picks but I look at each one as a potential lottery ticket.

Yeah, I’m sure it was just a coincidence that right after we jumped ahead of them and selected Knox at 96, the Pats***, with the whole world knowing they were looking to add a good TE prospect, immediately traded out of the 97th pick. Are going to insist on playing the “link” game every time a logical argument is presented?

Don’t be salty.
