Maybe he had several guys ranked similarly and was happy to get one of those guys in order to get a 3rd round pick. It's not all black and white. The bottom line is that saying he was somehow incompetent because he "allowed" KC to draft Worthy is just foolish. 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not Brandon Beane's job to prevent other teams from selecting players they want; it's to put himself in the best position to acquire the talent he wants.. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of those people out there. I agree with @Einstein, it will be nauseating hearing about not drafting that guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's any way they could have known...which is to say that the idea that Coleman was their guy all along isn't the case. Yes the idea that he's incompetent because the Chiefs took worthy is silly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe at least wait for the regular season. Not sure how you can form an opinion based on how little teams use their starters in the preseason.

Logic Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 49 minutes ago, eball said: Sounds like a you problem. Given that the Chiefs added three trophies to their case over the past six years and the Bills added none, it's also sort of a Bills problem.

Doc Brown Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 1 hour ago, Einstein said: You’re right - and that sucks. We are going to constantly hear about how we traded the Worthy pick to KC. That burst speed he had on the TD was just nauseating. Doesn't matter if Coleman produces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how you can form an opinion based on how little teams use their starters in the preseason. By reading reports from camp. The biggest difference between Franklin and other WRs like Coleman and Worthy is that he's not making plays in camp. I realize that a lot of guys make plays in camp and then don't perform in actual games, but not making plays in camp is a red flag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't put much stock in any of it Jamarr chase couldn't catch the ball his first preseason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 3 hours ago, Ethan in Cleveland said: For those of us including myself that were wanting Beane to draft this kid on day two, he is not doing much in camp for the Broncos. https://www.oregonlive.com/nfl/2024/08/troy-franklin-could-be-facing-a-redshirt-year-with-the-denver-broncos-in-2024.html Maybe these GMs do know more than me....lol!!! I wanted him too. But as of 2024's season, MVS is probably a better pro. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low Positive Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 29 minutes ago, GoBills808 said: I wouldn't put much stock in any of it Jamarr chase couldn't catch the ball his first preseason But he looked good in camp practices. It was pretty much like it is this year with the Bills. Joe Burrow threw one pass in the 2021 preseason, and it was an incomplete to Chase. Other than that, it was Kyle Shrumer throwing the ball. But you saw the electric plays in practice. It was the main topic of conversation on Moe eggar's show that year. Franklin cannot get promoted to even the second string in camp. Not a good sign, but he may just take a bit more time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how you can form an opinion based on how little teams use their starters in the preseason. I acknowledged that it was only preseason. Its also not an opinion that none of them have done anything its a fact that none of them have done anything through week 3 of the preseason. Could I wait sure but the topic was brought up about Franklin and I added to the topic that its not just Franklin its pretty much all of them. No where did I say any of them are busts or one is better than the other already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
