Joe B article speculates John Brown will be cut
atlbillsfan1975 replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I like Joe Marino, he does a good job of taking the emotions out of things and also reading different indicators. I know during the season Marino was adamant that Brown needed to stay. I do believe another wide receiver is needed to fill Browns role. Beasley is the slot and possession receiver Davis is more of a down the field threat, he needs to work on his coming back to the ball and contested catches. Davis has good hands and great foot work. Diggs is the number one who can do it all. This is where we need someone else like Brown. Brown is good and flashes great at times. This offense needs 4 receivers for it to really work to it’s full potential. -
Bills TE Lee Smith is contemplating retirement
atlbillsfan1975 replied to HOUSE's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Thank you for your time, the young guys have matured and can lead this team. Just bring in another olineman and have him report as eligible for the plays Smith was in. The only passes Smith caught were ones a olineman could catch as well. -
"First Round Picks are Over-rated": Discuss
atlbillsfan1975 replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Rams are trying to have a few high paid superstars on each side of the ball and then fill in with average, at best, talent everywhere else. The problem occurs when one of those superstars gets injured, like Danold did in the playoffs. I am not against doing what Beane did last year for Diggs. I wouldn’t be opposed to doing it this year. If you find a player of need, position needs and upgrade, on a contract that makes sense financially, then do it. Deion Jones is a good example for the Bills to use their first on. -
[Vague Title] deion jones falcons

Jones is exactly the type of player that can neutralize Kelce. And he has a manageable contract. -
Ok. Let’s look at that statement. First, I don’t think any of the LB’ers played exceptional this year. Edmunds maybe played as well as he did last year, we can debate why that happened, but better to stay on Milano’s play. Matt didn’t play great the first half of the year, then he got so hurt he couldn’t play. Klein stepped in and eventually had a good couple game stretch. This actually gave me more optimism at the time incase Matt wouldn’t be back. Secondly, Matt might be the best LB on the Bills, for me that doesn’t mean we pay him like he is one of the best LB’ers in the league. Availability is the most important ability.

I think you are mixing two separate issues. Everyone thinks Milano is a good LB, some will say great, others won’t. The area most fans, and it appears Beane, have an issue with is compensation. Paying a LB that has health issues top dollar doesn’t seem a wise way to spend your allocated amount of money. I think if Matt had played the entire year injury free and at a high level, Beane would of made a FMV offer. Neither of those things happened and thus Matt wants and gets to test FA.

Kroft is a FA. Norman won’t be back either, he is a FA. Same with Murphy. Jefferson, Butler, and Addison are goners. None of those players lived up to what they got paid. If Brown goes, I hope we have someone to replace him. I like Gabe but he has a lot of work to do before he is a number 2. Milano is going someplace else that will way overpay for him.
-
I am with you. Head into camp with Levi, Dane, and a Vet like EJ. I wish Beane could talk McD into bring some speed in for that defensive backfield.
-
Cost impacts my list to some degree, but for me it is D. Williams Feliciano Wallace(backup) Milano- but he has to be at a rate Beane thinks is right.

Diggs after game watching KC ceremony....
atlbillsfan1975 replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The McD hugging Diggs picture felt good to see. McD really does care about these players. What McD may lack on game day, he makes up for as being a leader of men. You can’t fake empathy. You can learn situational awareness football strategies. Look no further than Reid. Reid has always been loved by his players. -
Good point on the Oline. The first meetings saw Winters at RG, not good, and Boettger’s first start at LG. Feliciano is a huge upgrade over Winters and Boettger has showed progress. I like Andy Reid so it’s tough to dislike the Chief’s, but their cocky fans are making it easier and easier. When we win our SB and go on our run, let’s stay humble and classy. Honestly, Chief fans should just look at how their HC models behavior.
