Plausible X/#1 receiver trade candidates — are there any?
dave mcbride replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
Shaheed has had 215 touches in his career (receptions, rushes, kick returns) and has had 4 fumbles. Seems normal, more or less. Maybe slightly on the high end in terms of percentage, but it's in the range of normal. -

Maye will be a Trevor Lawrence type QB in the future. Jmo. Not top ten. Top fifteen maybe. Will need alot of support to win a SB. -
The buzz I heard on Brian Thomas (don't know if it's true?)....is that he's pretty lazy in practice, or has poor practice habits. Again, don't know if that's true or not? But if a guy is balling out in games, that practice stuff is just noise. If he's not performing in games the practice stuff matters more and irks the coaches and GM.

Trade them the 1st and Curtis Samuel. If they want something else, maybe an 5th rounder and if not the extra pick then either Milano or Taron. I’d honestly like to hold on to Shakir, Coleman and Palmer.

Allen could claim the all-time QB rushing TD mark (including postseason) with a rushing TD against the Chiefs. He is currently tied with Cam Newton with 77.

Yeah, I'm definitely in the "just do SOMETHING" camp at WR at the moment. I really don't care about the cost. Just somebody or a couple some bodies that can create separation. Doesn't even have to be a big name...raid practice squads, look at the FA market, overpay for somebody. -
I'd offer the Jags Coleman and a 1st for Brian Thomas Jr

HappyDays replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
I guess. I've criticized this regime plenty for neutering what makes Allen special but I don't know that even I want Allen to make that throw in that moment. Moore has a poor catch radius and his CB has good leverage to break on the catch. Allen would have to tag that directly to his chest 30 yards downfield with pressure in his face, and even then I think it gets broken up. If that's AJ Brown sure I want him making that throw. Check down is the right option here, he just misses the throw. -
The Patriots glazing on this forum is just insane. People act like the Bills got slaughtered. Forget about the questionable flags, I won’t even go there. Is this like some minor form of Stockholm Syndrome? I just have a lot more belief in Josh Allen than others. He’s been doubted his entire life and it continues in the NFL.

This is what they have to say once word is leaked. At least until he's on a new team. I would trade them a 1st, anyone of pur Wrs, except Shakir and a day 3 pick. -

Tom Brady always said when you're the best you have to take control He said he was consistently in every single meeting room with the coaches putting together game plans even helping the defense Josh can take control of the entire team if he's doing that.. how do we know he's already not He should be -

No jones or Oliver on the D alone makes things difficult on the bills against the Chiefs and now with the passing game sputtering its a bad recipe. Spags will not allow cook to do what he did to the panthers. I would imagine the chiefs will sell out on stopping the run and challenge the recievers to win 1 on 1. Unfortunately the identity the bills currently have favors the chiefs. If the chiefs can slow down cook early and score quickly on the slower and depleted secondary of the bills it could get out of hand. Unless the offense finds a rhythm between now and then I think things will fall heavily on the bills edge rush getting to mahomes and hairston being able to play the entire game. With white just not having the physical abilities he used too and giving wrs massive cushion against andy Reid and mahomes doesn't seem like its even an option at this point. -
I did some digging and could find nothing to link Thomas with diabetes. You are right about Mitchell.

Sojourner replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
Shaheed and Rattler had the only fumbles from what I saw. After checking the box score, yes. It was just the 2. That team reminds me of Houston in some ways. Not as great a defense but solid nonetheless. 3 turnovers, one returned for 6 and the Bucs were only up 7-3 @ the half. Offense needs to figure it out in the QB department and get them a new RT. Center is an issue but that McCoy guy returns from injury. They have plenty pieces to be successful, hence why I think they’ll be reluctant to trade Olave. Shaheed is probably the guy they move. Wild be if I was running the GM role. -

BillsVet replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
He shoulders the blame to surface-analysis types who don't try to understand cause. I've never said he's without fault, because he is. Yet, I see an offense which schematically works only when specific conditions are met, namely that the opponent is bad to average, their run defense is poor, and downfield throws aren't as necessary. I see a GM who thinks you can throw a hodgepodge of WRs out there. A HC who is a neanderthal on offense and thinks all of this should work every week. Coleman offers almost nothing to this offense and, despite the off-season narratives, is not producing. Or, he always needed more time to acclimate to the pro game and they couldn't provide that because Beane has never prioritized developing the WR position. Bottom line is before you get to the QB's play, start with a comprehensive analysis about roster strategy, the HC's input to that, Beane's acquisitionss, and Brady's game-planning. When those are good, I suspect Josh will be a lot better. -

Allen2Moulds replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
I watched that play live and I think he would've been short anyhow. This is how I truly felt before all of this. He knew he had to turn up super quickly to have a chance, and did the classic turn up field before securing the catch. -

Shaw66 replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
I don't agree. Allen didn't even stop to consider the throw to Moore. He moved his feet to be in position to throw to him and immediately moved his feet in order to make an off-balance throw to Davis. If the Bills don't want him making that throw, then I'll say more emphatically, the Bills need a new offensive coordinator. As I said earlier, Mahomes makes that throw to JuJu, and Andy Reid wants it all day. -

I’m one of those ppl that needs to see multiple years of great production before I’m sold. The Patriots schedule is a joke. The only remaining elite team they face is Tampa. -

Worth noting, it's not like Brady and Dorsey were bargain bin OCs. Their resumes were legitimate. Not sure what the answer is, and I can't help but find myself being critical of Beane when I think about it. -

Well, yes. But in fairness to her, she has to come up with a reason plausible enough that people like him will say "yes, that makes sense" when she tries to explain how her claims that her figurehead of a boss (let's face it, Autopen was 46, not the, the, the other guy, the BIG guy) was not just capable but very good at being President and should've stepped aside to let her be unburdened both by what had been and alas what would never be. That's darn near about as close to plausible as anyone is going to get without flat out saying that they were lying when they said the guy who's name Autopen kept signing was doing the job and doing it superbly.

Maye is playing good. Not elite or flashy but good. Vrabel is a very good coach. Has the team believing and playing hard. They also have and will experience positive game script. Once the game script changes I'm not sure they have enough to sustain. Mac Jones beat the Bills multiple times too. I expect the next meeting to look like the other times Allen played them in a got to have it spot.
