He is better than Cousins and better than Purdy. -

If you count all 4 branches there may be close to 200 (Army has 88). And that's just for the "official" bands. That does include things like the US Army Soldier Show, which is official, but a little less organized (they are compromised of regular, non-music MOS soldiers and are generally organized at the installation level). Still serves part of the same mission though, so I'd say the "hundreds" remark isn't entirely inaccurate. -

I don't have Cook yet in the near elite. I have him, as I said above, two steps away from that status rather than Brown and Benford who are one. And while I dobn't know exactly what numbers.... yea I broadly think Beane has been good at getting guys in your 2nd and 3rd category. Again I might quibble a bit about a player or two (Bernard isn't in that territory for me). As for other Chiefs and Eagles I'd throw into the conversation.. it probably is just Creed and Rashee for the Chiefs. The next 4 would be Sneed, Trey Smith, Nick Bolton and Karlaftis but think they are all in the very good rather than near elite bucket. Howie has more. He still has Lane Johnson from his first spell (before the Chip Kelly having GM control disaster) who I don't think is quite elite anymore but is still near elite. Then Landon Dickerson who is near elite too. Smith I'd put in the very good category personally but can take an argument either way. And then the two DBs last year who were near elite as rooks. If they both back it up in 2025 they could both well be in elite territory. He has been the best left tackle in football over the last four years. He is elite. End of discussion for me.

I don't think this takes away from my point that he's in the same camp as a guy like Cousins or Purdy that are ultimately the weak link on their team. Comparing their stats during the regular season is great as long as anybody cares about that. The playoffs is a different animal entirely and each of these guys seems to struggle under the added pressure. As for what I do if I have a player like this, I guess it depends on what your goals are. Are you really trying to win a Super Bowl at all costs, or are you more interested in having a team that people believe is capable of winning a Super Bowl? As an owner, the latter might be better than the former. If that's the case, you keep Goff and you tow the company line about "getting better"/"finishing the job", etc and you rake in the profits from stacking up division championships (something the Bills are currently doing). If you care about winning the Super Bowl, you do what the Rams did when they traded for Stafford. At worst, you should be trying to find a guy behind him that can push for the job. Do the Lions believe a 27 year old Hendon Hooker is that, or is he just a cheap backup? For sure, but 3 picks doesn't help. Even going back the previous year against SF, Goff lead the offense to a 24-7 start, but then he was only able to generate 7 more points (in garbage time) across the second half of the game in an loss. He had two drives of 4th and 3 and 4th and 2 where he threw incomplete passes. You just can't do that. -
Standing on the sideline as much? He led our WRs in snaps

100 more snaps and the same age as a rookie as Rousseau is in his 4th season. Rousseau generated pressure on 8.6% of his snaps (63/735) and Verse generated pressure on 9.2% of his snaps (77/834. Rousseau had never even crossed the 600 snap plateau prior to this season, it's a volume thing in the way we rotate our defensive lineman, and he still put up similar or better volume stats in his age 21, 22 and 23 seasons. Rousseau showed exactly why the Bills should cut him a check, after earning his third-straight season surpassing an 80.0-plus overall grade. During the regular season, the 24-year-old pass-rusher generated 63 total pressures — tied for the 10th most among edge defenders. What's more impressive, Greg Rousseau who’s been playing at this level for three years (age 22-24), or Jared Verse (age 24) who has done it once. I’ll take the proven track record every time. You’re overhyping their guy and underselling your own.

BillsFan130 replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
if you don't think goff is good, that's fair and I respect your opinion even though I respecfully disagree with it. I just don't understand why you are trying to prove that Goff gets carried by his team because of one game detroit won in which he was horrible. (That is cherry picking to try to prove something, as there are far more examples in which Goff has had to play great for Detroit to win) Every single good to great QB has had awful games where their team has still won. (Yes even Josh Allen as I showed) -
Well, I guess it depends on how you define elite. Is it top 25? Top 50? Top 100? Or some completely different metric. For what it’s worth, ESPN and NFL each put out a top 100 list. Base on a panel of experts or NFL players. Mailata wasn’t on either list.

Bleeding Bills Blue replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
Goff, Darnold, Herbert all played pretty lousy in the playoffs last year. Pretty sure all seem to struggle on the road and outdoors. The lions just played... terrible. I know Goffs largely to blame but that defense was terrible (albeit banged up). -
I think Steve Smith gave the best analysis of Keon Coleman's rookie year. To sum it up...Keon has work to do. It isn't just his lack of downfield speed, it is his footwork. Well, it is a number of things. I hope he is going the Shakir route and reaching out to Moulds in the offseason, or Andre Reed. Never a fan of the pick. When BTJ started to fall, I was hoping they would trade up for him. He was the consensus 4th WR in a stacked WR draft. He had at least Coleman's contested catch ability, his size, but he also had sub 4.4 speed, ability to get open deep, and being far better in most routes. In short, BTJ was a far better prospect I think Beane said he tried to trade up for BTJ, but teams wanted his 2nd rounder, which he didn't want to give up. But what he didn't say whether he offered anyone one of his 2 2025 2nd round picks. A team like Pittsburgh at 20 or Philly at 22 might have taken one of those to move down. Instead, he kept his 2nd in 2024 and drafted Cole Bishop, a guy that really didn't do much to impress in his first year. We traded down with the Chiefs, and swapped a 4th to move up into the 3rd and picked a 3 tech in Dewayne Carter. Just a year later he used both of those 2025 2nd round picks to move up and take...another 3 tech. Keep in mind that Carter and Sanders are playing behind/spelling Ed Oliver. IDK, between 2024 and in 2025, I see a great deal of maneuvering, Im not seeing a great deal of benefit. Sanders better be the true stud they hope he is. We got a pretty meh WR and with a little work, we could have gotten a bona fide stud.
