4_kidd_4 Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 So every offseason leading up to the draft, my crew’s Bills group message starts a pretty good back and forth of beat to death football phrases/clichés. Here’s what we have so far, please feel free to add any we may have missed. Sorry for some of the all caps, I’m copying from the group text... OVERDRAFTED PROJECT PICK CATCH RADIUS SCAT BACK PRO SET DAY ONE STARTER SECOND DAY PICK Franchise qb Big hands Process guy STRONG INTERVIEW VERTICAL LEAP INTANGIBLES HIGH MOTOR PLAYS TO THE WHISTLE ROAD GRATER Quick not fast No wasted steps Physical at the line End to end speed Football intelligence SIDELINE TO SIDELINE FIELD GENERAL Break away speed YAC Lateral movement Football fundamentals Edge guy Cover corner DEEP THREAT BIG BODY NORTH SOUTH RUNNER

I always thought that was misunderstood by most people - and that’s why it’s so cliche. You can’t show up one day and just try harder. The only way you can give 110% is if you work your butt off to be 10% better than you are now. In the gym, on the practice field and in the film room. It’s about making improvements and getting better. No one explains that. Edited March 6, 2020 by BarleyNY
