Thats not what he was saying though. Go listen to the interview. He said what I’ve been saying for months, the team is being built tougher with more edge so we stop playing so soft in the playoffs and get out bullied. He’s looking for edge on these guys and leadership. This quote was taken out of context and he wasn’t saying we are rebuilding.

Can we just make him the best FB in the NFL please. This big man can move.

4.51 isn’t slow. Thats what he ran on his pro day.

Sorry, I thought you were comparing them, misunderstood. I do think Coleman will be our WR1. They aren’t trying to rebuild the same style offense and I think want more toughness and physical players.

Sorry…but…You don’t know what you are talking about if you think there is any similarity between Coleman and Gave Davis. And I’m gonna guess you only made that lazy inaccurate comparison over a combine 40 time that was improved upon at his Pro day too. They are not at all the same player.

Shame on Allen for wanting a big target who makes big catches when he needs someone like that in the big moments that Diggs never did.

Way too much is made of this though. Very vast majority the greatest WRs in the NFL now and in history did not run sub 4.3 or less forty’s. It’s not the prerequisite to be great many in this board think it is.

Im absolving GM's from criticism at all, and that criticism is what comes later when you know what players are or aren't after stepping on the NFL field and showing who they are. I am saying on draft night, these people who have done NONE of the research, no less than 1% what the GM's know and have on these players right now that run around literally coming unhinged on draft night because a guy they "know" wasn't drafted over a guy the "didn't know" is absurd. And citing the one time out of a hundred they guessed right on a past decision using hindsight is 20/20 is even dumber. Its fine to have favorites, its fine to not know who guys are. But instead of melting down because it wasn't who they expected, maybe go look into that player and see why he was the pick and the kind of player he is instead of starting threads to fire Beane or melting down and whining in every thread because the Bills didn't take a guy a WR at 33 who is actually still on the board in the 4th. Coleman will be a WR1 for us. What people are not realizing is we are not trying to "replace" Diggs and Gabe, we are building a different style offense all together for what Joe Brady wants to do. We are in now way are trying to get Davis 2.0 and Diggs 2.0 and their focus now is clear about that and Beane has said as much.

You also loved Rosen when I told you he was gonna bust hard. Hahaha 😂 sorry couldn’t resist bud But yes, GMs aren’t going to be right every time either, and it cracks me up when people (not at all talking about you, talking about the melt down people) bring like one time where they were “I told you take DK over Ford” as proof they know more about drafting players while conveniently not remembering the 1000 other players they wanted that busted over guys who didn’t. Or all the guys they laughed at because they never heard of who go on to be great players.

Where was your genius when we drafted Bernard? How about Milano? Were you on here challenging those picks too? The narcissistic point of view that you think you know more and have even 1% the info and knowledge on these players as Beane and his staff do is hilarious.

Yes another great example. I wouldn’t say we are desperate though, Coleman is 100% a boundary WR. I’m not 100% even sure we do take another WR, but I think we probably will. I think Tez Walker is a guy to watch as we met with him a lot. I can see us moving up to get him potentially as a deep ball guy. Or who knows, maybe the Franklin meltdown crowd will get their guy.

Wait you’re saying higher drafted players have higher success rates? Lol, you really needed to type 3 paragraphs to break that news? Maybe you didn’t read the post I was responding to who was distraught at WR he didn’t even want to try and address anymore with these next picks because what’s the point in these rounds. It’s so ridiculously absurd of a statement he should delete it so it doesn’t haunt his posting history for all of time.

Are you serious? What round was Diggs drafted in? How about Antonio Brown? How about Milano? Shakir? Taron? What about Brady? How about Pacheco? I will never understand this notion so many fans have that you can only find great players in round 1 or maybe round 2. The draft proves that wrong every single year. Starting QB in the Super Bowl was the last pick in the 7th round. The NFL leader in catch rate, efficiency, and yards per target was Shakir, a 5th round pick. And replaced Davis and Diggs with nothing? Are you serious? Davis has never reached 50 catches pllaying on a pass happy, cant run the ball, offense with one of the best QB's in the league. Meanwhile, playing with scrub QB's Samuel has 4 seasons wtih over 50 to almost 80 catches. And we just drafted a rookie (always the plan) to replace Diggs role. The same Diggs role that saw him average like 3 to 4 catches the final stretch of the season and playoffs where he no showed again and dropped a key bomb that I promise you Coleman catches. No disrespect, but I could not disagree with a post more than I do this one. GMs value these picks for a reason. And we enter the season with Shakir and Kincaid ready to take next steps, Cook ready to as well with a proven vet finally playing with a good QB with Samuel, and a rookie who is open when not open that can go up and get the balls Diggs and Davis were dropping. For all you whining about speed too...Shakir is a 4.41 guy, Samuel is fast, and Coleman ran a much faster 40 at his pro day and also had the fastest Gauntlet time (a MUCH more important indicator of game speed) of anyone. This could be Allens best year not having the waste of space Davis and having to force feed Diggs where Allen had doube the INT rate throwing to those 2 than anyone else the last 2 years.

You mean Fraziers defense since McD's first year running the defense didn't do that last year.

So why are you upset we just drafted one of the best red zone targets in the draft? No disrespect, but I don't get what you are unhappy with then.

No, that alone says he is a dual threat weapon that has always been part of his game. Whats the glaring need for a starter that we passed up? Franklin? He wasn't starting lmao.

Shhhhhh...there is no room for making sense in the world of tantrums

While I think more of our existing weapons plus Coleman than you do and don't agree on your more negative view of it, this is a good post, fair take, and honest opinion that is well written. So much better than whiney tantrums around here flooding the board. So respect to your post sir

You do realize that we are the 2nd highest scoring team in the NFL over the past 4 seasons, our QB is a perennial MVP candidate and averages 5100 yards and 44 TD's over that span right? People act like Allen has had no help at all. Beane traded up for Kincaid last year, we have a young WR in Shakir who just led the NFL in efficiency, catch rate, and yards per target who plays like a mini Deebo, we have a duel threat RB, and signed a quality veteran in Samuel. Now we just added top prospect in the draft at WR too. Plus we still have Knox and him combined with Kincaid gives us one of the best TE rooms in the NFL. This notion Allen has no weapons is just a gross exaggeration. Im telling you now...Allen very well could have his best season of his career this season. Shakir and Coleman bring some much needed toughness to the offense. Where was Diggs when the season got late and games got more physical? Allens INT rate was double throwing to Diggs and Davis than it was throwing to everyone else. Allen is going to spread the ball around and now has a guy who can go up and get balls too, which we sorely needed. We went from drop city to a team made up of guys with great hands and intelligence.

Tocuhe...but AZ and Was passed on him 4 to 5 times each, so it balances lol

Let me guess "I dont know his name, he sucks just like Bernard, Taron, Shakir, Milano, and all suck and were the wrong picks of people I didn't know" Everyone throwing a tantrum over the guy every team in the NFL has passed on 3 times now in Franklin. And its only the Bills though making the mistake of not taking future HOF WR Troy Franklin lol

Not on passing downs when you are bringing pressure up the gut, the area we struggle with the most.

Gotta love the "havent heard of him" crowd who assume everyone they don't know of must be a bust in the making. Meanwhile the guy they think the Bills should have taken at pick 33 (Troy Franklin) has now been passed on by every team in the NFL twice and 3 times by the Bills. But the board...the board...I know who Franklin is, how dare they not take the name I know. You would think everyone would have learned their lesson after the meltdowns of Josh Allen, Milano, Berard, Taron, etc. Careers are not made on draft night by the names you know. Let these kids get on the field at least before you map out their careers.

Man, you guys know draft picks are here more than one year right? Yes he will play behind DQ, but he gets to learn behind a great pro and eventually take over for him. Not every pick is going to be ROY

And yet I will make a friendly wager with you that Allen has the best statistical season of his career this year.
