Anytime the Bills draft the grandchild of a USA Olympian, they'll get no grief from me! 🇺🇸

 

Are you sure his grandfather was Frank and not Wayne? He could be involved in playing the National Anthem.

Don't love the pick. Don't hate it.

 

Would have preferred Xavier Hutchinson, AT Perry, Isovias or Trey Palmer. 

Agree, I can’t dislike a fifth round pick, but I’m not in love with a guy who drops a ton of passes in college. You can have all the attributes, but how often do guys suddenly learn how to catch?

He does remind me of Duke

My ex wife and you have the same definition of "a ton".

I always thought Wayne was Frank's uncle...🤔

I assume he will be a ST guy but he is raw and might not see field till later in year and hopefully can grow

Since when did Josh Allen suddenly learn how to throw on target?

 Thought the same thing… Even the WVU kid Wheaton was still available. 🤷‍♂️

it’s an outdoor cold weather team, with wind, sleet,rain & snow! 

It’s taken almost a generation for OBD to finally catch up to me- get big men that provide jump ball huge targets for your huge QB!

 

No brainer.

 

 

Jalen Hurts just whips his deep ball to a general vicinity and his WRs come down with it every single time. We need some of that. Josh needs help.

dropped a-lot of balls 

 

Why I loved our Kincaid pick - the dude is a ball magnet if you just get it near him.

Good point, but I think QB accuracy is more complex than catching a football. People assume low completion percentage means the QB is inaccurate. A QB’s supporting cast can make him appear to be more inaccurate than he is. I guarantee Josh would have been considered an accurate passer had he played with SEC level talent.

Sorry, people who committed suicide should be off limits for jokes.

Beane is a man after my heart these past two years. Elam, Torrence and now Shorter?

That’s fair, I didn’t have the stats, I’m just reading everywhere saying he had a problem with drops.
