Here you go @Alphadawg7. Today's Locked on Bills episode was entirely about Shakir.
He notes that out of every WR who ever measured 29" or shorter arms, the only ones to have meaningful careers were Hunter Renfrow, Isaiah McKenzie, and Braxton Berrios. Shakir would be the first to ever make it as even a 50% outside WR with that arm length.
The short arms are concerning, but his 'catch radius' is 48th percentile amongst WRs who tested (versus Hunter Renfrow's 25th percentile, for example).
I'm not saying this is the be all, end all but I thought it worth mentioning. He maybe an outlier due to his athleticism:
Catch Radius – first discussed by Scott Smith in a piece titled “The Catch Radius Project: In Search of Better TD Production”, the metric incorporates a player’s ability to cover ground as well as his ability to get vertical in order to score a player’s capacity to reaching the football in a 3-dimensional space. Catch Radius affects a player’s ability to succeed in the red zone, particularly on fade routes and 50-50 balls. The equation squares a player’s 40-time, 20-yard shuttle, and 3-cone and multiplies it by the square of a player’s height, arm length, and vertical jump. The values of all six data inputs are normalized to have equal weight.

This doesn't mean there weren't issues between them but I scrolled through Josh Allen's likes on Twitter and saw this from the Week 18 win in Miami. Whatever happened in the lockerroom after Week 1 probably wasn't notable to reporters at the time because by many accounts, they still seemed to be on the same page. Blowup happen even amongst friends and family.
Obviously, each individual moment doesn't tell the whole story, but I thought it was interesting to reflect on it nevertheless:

I had the numbers for the Ravens-49ers Super Bowl final score until Baltimore's punter ran through his own end zone for an intentional safety.

Spags brings pressure on every big 3rd down whenever anyone plays the Chiefs, and every single time, the offense looks totally unprepared.

If Allen learns to do the “little things” maybe one day he can score 1 TD and 1 INT in regulation of a Super Bowl too. Inspiring stuff.
As it stands, Allen is tied for the fewest interceptions in Super Bowl history.

Only Patrick Mahomes could drop that snap and then foolishly almost throw an INT late over the middle.

Niners can win this, and I'm rooting hard for it. But this has that feeling of inevitability that so many Chiefs games have where they look like ***** and pull it out by the skin of their teeth.

He doesn’t have the weapons this year.
You're right, they'll be lucky to make the playoffs.
Meanwhile, back in reality, it's 10-6 in the 3rd Quarter of the godamned Super Bowl.

Not saying I’m going to run a victory lap after this win, but there are a few of you that I’m calling out for saying I was dumb for picking the Niners to win it all along lol
It's true, it's already over. Mahomes famously never overcomes defecits.

Am I the only one that doesn’t see anything wrong with his answers today? It’s meaningless offseason chatter.
No, if anything he sounds like he's tired of answering the same questions but he doesn't even sound angry when he voices it--- more resigned that the chatter is there and can't be suppressed.

Not sure why you are responding instead of skipping over it then?
What are you the message board police?There are some real obnoxious people on this board.
I'm responding because you posted something I find ridiculous, the same reason for your original post. Other than thin skin, what are you made out of, teflon?

Conspiracy theories aside
That phrase is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. Not sure what the point of this thread is, "conspiracy theories aside."

Earlier today, the following thought flashed through my mind: "We have Josh Allen." I didn't forget per se, but it was like realizing I had won the lottery.
I'm incredibly optimistic about the Buffalo Bills, even if Allen "only has 5 more years". Go Bills.

i don't need anyone to look at me. i don't need any attention. if i wanted attention i'd do some classic trolling and do what made me famous by run over anyone and everyone.
"I know something everyone would be interested to hear, but I can't say" is the definition of a classic troll. If you're acknowledging you're famous for trolling, then I won't dispute it.

it's not messed up. it's to let people know the media in Buffalo are sitting on stories that they do not release.
No one needed you to tell us that, most fans should surmise as much. As it is, this is a big LAMP.

Correct no FG’s which is why the ball was thrown to a wide open receiver in the end zone.No one's arguing Allen should've thrown it to Diggs in order to setup a FG, get over yourself. Everyone making that case wanted to leave no time on the clock after a TD.

Play conservative and then go all out for a TD?not likely.
It's what they tried all game. No one wants a FG there.

Going up 4 vs. 3 is an entirely different scenario. If
I have no problem with taking a shot to a WIDE OPEN receiver in the end zone in this situation. Especially on 2nd down.
people arguing the check down to Diggs are really arguing they want to milk the clock and settle for overtime. That’s the mentality. Milk the clock, play conservative and kick a 28 yard Fg after going ultra conservative in the red zone after picking up the first down to Diggs.
so play for overtime. A loser mentality.
Milk the clock and score a TD is the only way I'm interpreting those that wanted the throw to Diggs.

Beane on WR "We worked out a guy today we are going to end up signing"
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
The draft was still live when Beane made that comment so he's referring to a veteran WR.
