The takeaway from Joe Marino was that the Bills simply dont ask their RB's do pass pro much period, not because they can't but because Josh Allen can work around rushers really well and the back's are receivers.

Last year most of us are expecting a down year, based on what happened in the off-season. I did expect the Bills to still win the division but not getting to the AFC championship game. Looking back, I can say for myself that I didn't expect 1) a step forward from Allen. I suspect when we look back years later in Allen's career, it might be a very important year. His 3rd season proved he's elite. But last year (year 6) in my opinion, he became a more rounded, complete QB, especially in decision making. 2) a step forward from Cook. In my book, he became THE offensive weapon and too bad Brady didn't use him enough in the most important game last year. 3) a step backward from Kincaid. Many, including me, expected Kincaid to be THE offensive weapon but he didn't. 4) not a single defensive player stepping up to have a career year. Benford, Rousseau improved, but not a dominant force. Von and Milano didn't have resurgence. This year. I don't think Allen is going to improve significantly again. Neither would I expect from Cook. I expect Kincaid to do better but not sure I would expect a breakout performance. a) Hairston. Widely reported as a McDermott pick (unlike the Elam pick), he may have a chance to have a Tre White like rookie campaign. If that happens, it is a huge boost to the D. b) Bishop. Little evidence to suggest that he's in line for a Bernard kind of 2nd year but no one saw that in Bernard either. Just my hope. we can dream that both a) and b) happen this year so McDermott has his best secondary as a HC of the Bills. c) Coleman. He played enough last year that he got a taste how people defended him effectively later in the season. Does he develop enough to counter, or do Brady and the staff find something to use him more effectively? d) Bosa. He's still young enough to do what he can do. Can he provide the Bills what Von provided when he came to the Bills before his knee injury? I know the Bills spent a lot on the D-Line but I'm not going to bet on the rookies and suspended players. Chances are one of the rookie D-Line will flash, but I just don't see consistently D-Line plays from rookies picked in the low 1st round onwards.

I can only imagine your reaction if Biden had deployed the National Guard without a request. But Trump 1.0 actually knew the law. What happened to Trump 2.0?

Is OK to fly the flags while burning things? You get dumber by the minute.

Wait- the kids mother threw a challenge flag. Play is overturned, kid rejoices

And yet they were crying for the NG on J6...

They're still crying about flags. I wonder if they had coordinated t-shirts as well I wonder if the folks in LA had matching t-shirts?

The real question is would you rather have this guy or a better starting safety? IMO, our safeties are in greater need of an upgrade.

I disagree. Chaos in the streets is always good for party out of power, it allows for the opportunity to position itself as the problem solver it given the chance. To borrow from a well-known political saying, “Never let a good crisis go to waste.”. As to who might be organizing, I’d think there are any number of groups that might be in play: -Open Border groups; -Foreign govts/individuals looking to sow seeds of discontent in our country; -Left wing anarchists -Right wing anarchists; -Cartels; -Business groups that favor open borders and cheap labor; -Any group/social club Roundy belongs to;

I never changed the variable, I said “starting lineup” in my first post. My point is if the NFL drafted 14 Ohio State players, I think Ohio State might be able to beat a UFL team. That was the original topic. Some of those guys will be NFL starters, and the rest will be UFL level guys. The UFL doesn’t have any NFL starting caliber players, so why couldn’t OSU beat a UFL team? How is 82% of OSU’s starting lineup future salesmen if 14 guys got drafted this year? I don’t get your math, but I appreciate your take, I just disagree. This is a statistical extreme, that’s a good point, but I think it’s going to be common in the NIL world of college football. I’ve noticed the NFL draft increasingly dominated by several college teams.

Nope he was perfect, but I wouldnt want him doing handoffs cause one kid did drop the shoe when he handed it back... LOL... We really need OTAs to start... LOL

Hmm. How do I count a PASS behind the line of scrimmage? Tough question. Run? Or pass? Hmm. Remind me. Did you say they have dink and dunk elements? Or did you say they were a run first team, and is that what I responded to? I believe it was the latter. Again, they were not a run first team. They were also 9th in the league in YPA. Allen threw downfield a lot. Had a bad year, his worst since he broke through at percentage of catchable balls that were in the air for 20 yards or more. That's not all on him, but some of it is. They were a very successful passing offense, in any case. 8th in TDs and 14th in yards. Not run-first, though. If anything, fairly balanced, which is probably what they want to look like to - among other things - make it easier on Josh. C.Biscuit, I'm totally with you in terms of not being the least bit angry at Cook. He's got to try to maximize his earnings. The question is whether these tactics do maximize his earnings. And what the Bills should do in response. IMO, the Bills response should be hoping he comes down eventually and not re-signing him unless he does.

Facts don't care about your emotions.

Is something significant happening? Looks like it, according to Family Research Council (FRC) Senior Fellow Joseph Backholm, who writing in World Magazine further suggests the reason why: “We were told redefining marriage was a matter of fairness and decency, and a lot of people fell for it. People with moral objections to same-sex marriage supported it because they thought it was the kind and fair thing to do. “But the sexual revolutionaries did not offer the tolerance they demanded. The moment they felt a sense of cultural dominance, they responded with speech codes, lawsuits against churches, and attempts to ruin the lives and businesses of anyone who expressed a contrary view.” https://instapundit.com/724855/

It may be a fair assessment here, but bad blanket statement. You don't not make moves based on a 5th rd, 1 year player. Dude would've got the same treatment if he was a 5-7sack guy. Can't count on him enough to pass up his players at his position, but doesn't mean the staff thinks he won't take a step either. Hes a mini project, low cost, high upside. Love these kinds of picks. Hopefully he makes us look genius Who was the dude that did this for us maybe 7 years ago? Was really fast DE, but ppl b-worded he took a looping route on his pass rush. Pretty sure he came from NE and or maybe Miami. I really liked him at the time but we cut him. Mark something maybe???

Los Angeles riots are 'safe and effective.' They will stop if everyone gets mRNA vaccinated. Liberals be like:

kick ass song and kick ass album! Any album that begins with a fog horn(or air raid sirens or shark sound alarm) is awesome. Steve made 8 albums before finally making it with - He put out a couple decent albums after Fly Like An Eagle, then his music went to crap IMO. He went from Psychedelic Blues Man to Abracadabra. Interesting early output

this is a trait of any team on the cusp of a championship. they're always linked to players like this. especially in the interest of the player and agent - they want teams to think the best teams want to sign someone this good

TRUTH.

I was just listening to the Check the Mic podcast last week and they were listing Solomon as the breakout player for the Bills this year. His pressure numbers were good when he played though it is a small sample size. Fully expect Solomon to get a good look early in the year to see if he can get a 3rd down pash rush specialist role this year and replace AJ next year. If he doesn't flash early then he'll be cut like a lot of 5th rounders. They discuss Solomon at the 4:40 mark for anyone bored.

Yeh he showed too much not to make the team. Might not be active on game day barring injuries but he showed he belongs

The LA Chaos Is an Illusion and Trump Will Not Fall for It Kurt Schlichter Let’s understand what’s going on in Los Angeles because most people don’t. This is not a battle of cops versus rioters; it is a battle between narratives. Most people see regime media video of Third World savages waving the tacky banners of their garbage homelands, lighting fires, hassling cops, and doing other things consistent with being barbarians, and think that Los Angeles is in chaos and therefore get scared. The idea behind this color revolution – it is organized and planned, not spontaneous or genuine – is to intimidate normal people into submitting and embracing the politicians associated with its goals in the hopes that it will stop. This is the work of the Democrat Party; the rioters are its useful idiots, acting to support the party’s goals while its maintaining deniability. But this scheme only succeeds if the target is feckless and weak, which such targets usually are. Trump isn’t. He’s going to win this because he understands this fight better than his enemies. The chaos is an illusion; his strength is reality. Remember, this is not a kinetic operation. A kinetic operation achieves its goal by the violence itself. Kinetic operations destroy enemy personnel, reduce enemy combat power, or conquer territory through physical destruction. But this is an information operation. It accomplishes its mission by influencing the population. The violence itself is not an end, but a means; the goal is to compel people to submit by convincing them to accept the narrative. And the narrative here is that Los Angeles is in complete chaos as a result of Donald Trump attempting to enforce federal law, so to stop the violence, Donald Trump must be compelled to cease enforcing federal law. This, of course, would be a devastating neutering of Trump while strengthening the Democrats. They want to make Trump look weak and convince America to submit to their intimidation. But this plot only works if we accept the illusion they are presenting. Remember, it’s an information operation. None of what you see on the regime media is real. Oh, they are burning a few cars and screaming and yelling and running around waving flags of garbage countries, but what does any of that actually do? Nothing. They can’t make anyone do anything. They are not eliminating any federal law-enforcement capabilities. They are not significantly hindering federal law enforcement operations. They are not holding significant territory over time. They’re simply acting out in front of the cameras to try to convince you that Trump is powerless. The impact on the daily life of 99% of people in Los Angeles is exactly zero. There are approximately 20 million people here. Maybe 5,000 have anything to do with this nonsense. Again, it’s all an illusion designed to frighten and confuse you. That’s what an information operation does. It creates a narrative in people’s brains to achieve an effect it can’t achieve by force. These mobs don’t have the capacity to do much of anything except block some freeways and set a few cars on fire. If the cops and the Guard decided to get kinetic, they’d be wiped out faster than they could chant, “No justice, no arrrggggghhhh.” They aren’t a revolutionary army. They are a bunch of jerks pretending to be a threat. And Trump has called their bluff. They were counting on what usually happens when the professional agitators in blue cities start getting frisky – they get catered to by the Democrats who run these urban areas. The Democrats react like a mommy while Trump reacts like a daddy. He’s not taking any of their guff, but what is important is that he understands that this is an information operation. He escalated by activating the California Army National Guard – I was a deputy commander of the brigade Trump called out and on the streets with the Army during the Los Angeles riots – but not so he could go kinetic. He’s not calling in the Guard or the Marines to bust heads or quell disorder, like we did in 1992. The guardsmen are basically providing point security around federal facilities to free up federal cops to go out and do cop things like arrest scumbags. What Trump is doing is messaging to the country that he’s not taking their crap. He’s not going to be intimidated. He’s not going to let this get out of control. The ones who are letting it get out of control are the Democrats who run California, like slack-jawed moron Mayor Karen Bass and Governor Gavin Hairstyle https://townhall.com/columnists/kurtschlichter/2025/06/09/the-la-chaos-is-an-illusion-and-trump-will-not-fall-for-it-n2658455 .

Should we give them a first round pick for him?
