Deuce Vaughn lol. Another bust. Your hypocrisy is off the charts. You just argued all that and then say he doesn't fit. Sorry I gotta block your dumb ass

Please do. You've already made yourself look foolish.  Not having your drivel clogging up my screen would make my day.

You should do Fansville commercials 🤣. You agreed with "foolish" after 2 hrs of arguments.

The position requires zero seasoning. They reached. They made a mistake

 That's a bust.

 

I absolutely agree the Bills reached on James Cook, but that doesn't necessarily make him a bust. He can still be a weapon but he's a committee back, they need a bigger hard nosed RB to pair with him.

Cook has the frame to carry an extra 10 pounds easily. I don’t remember anybody saying that he needed to gain 20 pounds.

Alright John. So then it wasn't a bust? Team was built. There wasn't a "bigger hard nosed rb" to pair with him as Cape suggests and you still defend drafting a project.  Sacrifice a super bowl season for a project.  Good idea. We can win after he puts on enough to still not fit the need.

Once again, making the incorrect assumption that Cook was drafted with the expectations he would immediately be this elite back who should take over the league on Day 1.

 

Cook was drafted because the McKissic deal fell through.  Unless you're going to try to make the claim McKissic was being brought in to be our every down feature back, you're obviously way off base.

I thought the McKissic fiasco made it obvious what type of back Beane wanted.  Apparently, it wasn't quite so obvious to some. 

 

Then, there's zero attempt to add that piece to the offense.  Even after the addition of Hines, it never happened.

 

I think it's safe to say Beane had more in-mind for Hines than just returning kicks.

 

Most of Allen's runs are scrambles out of the pocket after protection breaks down or he can't find a receiver, so please stop trying to make it sound like Allen's yardage all from designed QB runs.

Agreed.  
 

he had some success catching the ball 5 catches 50+ yards and a TD. Running the ball, he resembled the great Reggie Bush.  6 rushes -3 yards.  
 

he had no chance when he took a handoff.  I would bet that some of the blame would fall on the play calling.  Not just poor OL.  Every game is a chess match between OCs and DCs.  It’s not just players making plays.
 

The SB window is open and we’re rolling the dice with a guy that “might” be a good OC/ play caller.  No one knows if he’s good. He wasn’t last year Imo.  Not saying he’s bad either.  Just the jury is still out on a coaching position that is vital to teams succeeding.  Especially with a defensive HC.

If Beane and Dorsey don't get on the same page, this draft could turn out to be a real s*** show.

No one is good enough at OC if the qb is the run game.

Name me all the teams with a great run game that have an O-line ranked in the bottom quarter of the league.

So that's your excuse to carry 3 undersized backs? Trade one for another? Lmao they're obsessed.  Name me another team that had 3 losses in the super bowl era with an OL ranked in the bottom quarter of the leauge.

So you can't.  Gotcha.  No O-Line, no effective running game.  This isn't rocket science.

James cook averaged 5.7 ypc…… he’s not the reason Josh Allen was the run game.  
 

oh wait…. 81 year old Bill Parcells

Beane knows what style he wants to run and that's why he acquired Cook & Hines. The problem 100% lies in Josh and Ken.  Over Josh's first 3-4 seasons he was devastating, running both designed plays and pocket breakdowns.  I think in Josh's mind he feels he still has to be the guy running for 80-90 yards. It's in his blood and ego. Dorsey to some degree has fed this narrative and has added the freedom for Josh to go nuts with deep routes.  Short safe and productive checkdowns kind of ended week 3.  When opponents saw this they implemented a spy with cover shell.  And it worked. Unfortunately both Josh and Ken never returned to using dumpoffs and checkdowns like they did against the Rams & Titans.  This will be McB's biggest challenge convincing Josh & Ken why the short passes are so instrumental in running a complete offense.

Completely agree. The problem this April won't be selecting offensive players. It will be making sure Beane & Dorsey are 100% committed to getting "the right offensive players".  If they're not in agreement it will be a disaster.

Are you willing to reach for another Basham/Epenesa for a need or would you want to have the best player in college football @ 31? 

Who the hell said I wanted a DE. Read my short post very carefully.  It says WR/ OL.
