Meh, Josh Allen vs CJ Stroud is still the big story here

 

Right, and look at what Stroud has to work with now contrasted with what Allen has to work with.  

 

There's zero comparison.

Going to struggle this year. Rookie WRs take time and Samuel isn’t a #1

I am not predicting shakir will become a number 1 but once Brady took over he had more production than diggs on less targets. Both are 5th round picks with very similair combine numbers. I could very easily see shakir getting 70-80 catches for 1000-1100 yards with more targets.

 

Samuel will see a fair share of targets and I expect he will be more productive than Davis was

 

Kincaid will also see more targets and I think Knox will be utilized more this year now that he is healthy. 
 

The bills offense struggled when we tried to force the ball to diggs. I think they will be much more productive spreading it around and having 4-5 wr in the 50-70 catch range for 700-1000 than 1 guy getting the bill of the targets

Stef's playoff performance in the last 3 years is terrible. 0 tds and catch% of 58%. If we can somehow come away with 2 quality wrs in this draft we'll be just fine. I was personally tired of the diva drama and constant inuendos. Time to get young "wr wise" while JA17 is still young.  Thanks for trying Diggsy.

I think a much more balanced passing offense would be a great thing.

What did Beane say?

This certainly makes the Texans visit to Orchard Park a lot more interesting next season.  

That would be very interesting indeed since the game is scheduled to be in Houston.  Did Diggs run the logistics team out of town?

I think the combination of Samuel and Shakir and Kincaid can handle that spot.  That’s what happened during the Bills winning streak to finish the year.  The need remains size and speed on the other side.  

I suppose the obvious move then is to find a way to get Thomas Jr. Or stay put and take Franklin, Leggette or Coleman. Mitchell has some size as well but not like those other guys.

Peace out dude.

What's more wild is look at how potent the offenses were in those games against the Chiefs without Diggs doing anything.  The Bengals game not withstanding because the whole team was a mess that day. 

 

It sucks that it didn't work out more cleanly, Diggs is a phenomenal talent, and the Bills will be fine without him. All of these things can be true.

What if....what if CJ Stroud takes a step back??

That would be a shame.

Wait just 1 in the draft...come on Beane you're better than that lol

[CircleTheWagons99]

Kind of funny how he went to the Texans just two days after the April fools joke about him getting traded to Cowboys, so close.

so you'd turn down this year's and next year's 2nd round picks for DK Metcalf so you can double dip this season?

Well depends who they are

 

28, 2025 1st, 2nd  for Bears #9, select Odunze

Then trade 60 and 2025 Vikings 2nd (via Diggs)  for Tee Higgins or Aiyuk

I would go crazy if we got DK Metcalf.....but what reason would Seattle have to trade him.  I think they eat way more $ than we did for Diggs and he's still 26 

[Dr.Mantis_Toboggan]

Glad he’s gone, he was a ghost while the team went on a winning streak and won the division.  He’s not a dynamic take over the game wide receiver. He’s a nice player, crisp route runner, but he’s not the difference maker he thinks he is.

 

My only question is, does this extra pick give this team enough capital to move up and grab Odunze, especially with the onslaught of QBs expected to go at the top of the draft?

[appoo]

This is driving me insane. This is not how to portray Dead cap. It's THREE MILLION

They're not anywhere close to contending and DK is their best way to get picks
