    I like the Fromm pick simply because QB is so hard to project. He could be Peterman or he could be Cousins. I like taking fliers on guys even if you have one already as long as it’s not too high of a pick. 
     

    the only pick I didn’t like too much was Davis

    Also, just a reminder that Fromm beat out Fields and Eason as a rookie 

     

    not exactly. Eason started the season, got hurt, then got Wally Pipped by Fromm who never relinquished the starter's job. That's why Eason transferred to UW.

    I think Beane lost most of his latitude in this draft when he traded for Diggs.  We couldn't move around in the 2nd unless we would give up our 3rd or 4th round pick... which we don't want.  Now in Round 4, Beane might move around 1 time.

     

    I assume by "latitude" you mean leverage ?

    The Bills have just gave up a boatload of draft picks for a WR.  I admit he is an upgrade for what we currently have, however when a GM named Doug Whaley traded picks for Sammy Watkins, he never lived down that decision. Do you remember why Whaley made the trade? it was to bolster and support a young QB named EJ Manual.  This trade was done for the current young QB Josh Allen.   I hope this works out,  if not, it will be a disaster.  If it doesn't work,  will the fans criticize Beane like they did Whaley?

     

    EJ Manual.....?

    I can certainly understand the buzz about Higgins. He might be the best in the class at catching area code balls which Allen usually throws. Especially down the field. Wouldn’t be shocked one bit if he is their target. The only thing that concerns me is his mysterious absence at the on field workouts at the combine...

     

    there was no mystery - he said he wasn't physically prepared. It would have been a mystery had he not explained his absence

    Not trolling and thanks but I'll choose to continue to give my opinion despite the embarrassment.  He could be in better shape and it is obvious.  You might think it doesn't matter but I doubt there is an athlete that will tell their performance isn't at least a bit better when they are in peak physical condition.  I love Josh Allen and think he is going to be very good if not great, but I feel like he has a step to take in his conditioning.  

     

    are you his personal trainer? You have such amazing insight .......

    I wish Josh would put down the beer and the chicken wings for a few years.  He could definitely tone up a bit and it would make him stronger and faster.  Could make a big difference on some plays.

     

    like that 4th and 1 play at Dallas where he jumped over and bulled the entire DL backwards? Yeah, he wasn't strong enough there......?

    Guy makes plays down the field though.  He just doesn't bring actual 4.4 separation to the tape.  He makes a lot of plays, great at high pointing - great at contested catches down field and over the middle.  I also feel like he's that guy thats just... open when you scramble.  Finds the open grass or something.  Shades of doug baldwin.  

     

    great cliche !!.....?

    Hmm, I don't mind any of these (except the 110% one. That's just impossible.) They all convey a meaning that is easily understood and describes players adequately. Are we just supposed to say "he plays football well"?

     

    I don't think you understand the intent of the OP - just try to listen to Mel Kiper the entire draft and count all the cliches he uses ..... maddening
