The reasoning for this will be revealed, I think, over the course of this thread. Edmunds is probably the only other one… the next closest might be Gabe Davis honestly. Its a huge problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 19 hours ago, Pine Barrens Mafia said: Kind of the point of the thread. Beane is radically overrated by many, and used to be by me. Allen was a great pick by him. But he's pretty much the only one. His other greatest move is trading for Diggs. Beane sort of started the trend of teams trading high assets for proven WR's. And it's really been a home run for all the teams that have done it recently, Miami with Hill and Philly with AJ Brown. So, for Beane one draft pick, one trade and still pending the results on Free Agents I think? Although I would maybe lump Beasley in as success, but short lived. He desperately needs the Von Miller signing to hit. If we look at the total of a GM's responsibilities, draft, trades and free agents he has say 2.5 hits (Beasley being the half).

Generic_Bills_Fan Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) Rousseau was great this season but he had 0 help after von went down. Cook averaged 5+ ypc which makes singletary expendable. Knox would be good if he didn’t have to block so much to account for a horrible offensive line. Elam had some great games down the stretch. I think the bitter end is clouding people’s judgement…not that I blame anyone 😂 I think people are still not really accounting for us being good and our first pick being in the late first every year rather than early/mid first Edited January 30, 2023 by Generic_Bills_Fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did say "who do you believe the Bills have drafted"? 2017 Milano Tre White 2018 Josh Allen Tremaine Edmunds - if he repeats this year and improves a bit, like Milano, people will start to notice Wyatt Teller 😈 2019 Dawson Knox - I think on a team that used him properly, he will get there 2020 and on - May be too soon to tell, but I'm leaning towards "no one" Question: What is the answer if you ask this question of the Eagles, 49ers, Chiefs, and Bengals? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watkins90 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 If Nickelback was an actual position on the all-pro team I would say Taron Johnson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Frankish Reich Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I would say Rodger Saffold. But he wasn’t drafted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-9 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 By my count, the Bills have had 38 players voted 1st Team All Pro 68 times. Pardon me for not listing them all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Sean McDermott didn't have a team of scouts analyzing players for the Buffalo Bills while he was the defensive coordinator of the Bills. he was hired 3 months before the draft. The board was probably 95% done by then. Also, the draft had Whaley's DNA all over it. Edited January 30, 2023 by BullBuchanan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDermott has always liked NFL family stuff (i.e., Edmunds), and Zay Jones has an NFL dad and played in the Panthers' backyard in college. Word at the time was that the Panthers liked him. And we moved just ahead of the Panthers to draft Dion Dawkins, and word was that the Panthers were enthusiastic about him. Beane knew he was leaving for Buffalo, and I've always wondered if he fed McDermott info. Obviously they used Bills scouting info - they had no other choice - but I have always thought that draft was McDermott's. Recall that interview with Whaley about Mahomes and Terry P's enthusiasm. Trading back for a good zone CB instead of grabbing Mahomes strongly suggests McDermott influence to me.
