Oh, thank goodness. Our long national nightmare is finally over.

"Which NFL has had the best offseason so far? Which has had the worst?" I think the National Football League (USA) had the best offseason so far and National Football League (South Africa) had the worst.

That's not how this works. We wait until we see some WR who was drafted in the 4th or 5th has a good season then we come back and say "We told you so!". You can't honestly expect us to tell who before because then we will be wrong and look like idiots.

It's not a real post. You got baited.

Insane of them to approach it logically and not emotionally! I'm an emotional fan and they should have been focused solely on assuaging my emotions!

My hunch is when the details are released it will be a "2 year deal".

We've also forgotten that WR is one of the slower developing positions in the sport with some stellar rookies having a big impact. Guys like Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr having success has a trickle down effect that raises expectation for all WRs when for guys outside the first couple rounds.. you still probably have year 3 as the make or break year for them.

I think people overlook that this WR room has been under attack for 2 years now being told they suck. The GM coming out with this sort of defense of them likely goes a long way with those guys in the locker room. I personally think there is little chance this wasn't a planned and calculated thing from Beane.

Allen is also prone to trying to throw that route. It's why I was so apprehensive about Dorsey because it felt like he'd feed into Allen's competitiveness to make those big plays when it hasn't been his most effective route. Perhaps they are attempting to 'save him from himself', but I also suspect it's just part of the organizational philosophy that they want to control the ball and often trying these routes leads to short drives and giving the ball back to the other team.

Yes, which directly goes against you disagreeing that.. "They will try some corners at safety". You might want to try some of that comprehension for yourself.

So your take that they weren't going to try any of these corners at safety aged like milk left in the hot sun then.. huh

Give them six 1st rounds picks and I'm sure they'll let him go and throw in Diggs too!

I suspect they try some corners at safety. Tre seems a likely candidate.

You know NFL defenses do exactly that.. right? It will be something like the field-side corner (covering the lone receiver) to play man coverage on the #1 receiver (the outermost receiver on the weak side) while the boundary-side corner and nickel back to play zone on the three-receiver side, splitting the field into quarters. The strong safety plays a deep half zone on the three-receiver side and the free safety to play a deep quarter zone on the field side, providing help over the top of the man coverage.

I have a feeling based on no evidence other than feeling that one of them works at safety.

I think they will play more man, but I think they want the flexibility to play both more than one or the other. Also, there's a lot more mixed coverage getting used these days where the defense is playing zone in one place and man in another.

I agree. You'd prefer a guy that could potentially catch a pass over a guy that has zero chance to do so. Also, having a guy in case you need Anderson to play because of an injury is helpful.

Have you? It's is extremely unlikely that 5th round rookie unseats any of the top 4. This is your emotions running amuck because you want a WR so you want them to select one regardless of the likelihood of success.

Some of ya'll need to contract a therapist to sit through the dra.. 24 hours a day with you.

Also, so their agents will then tell other teams.

My source said the Bills wanted Abdul Carter if he fell to them even more than Grant

That's the point. You're still here watching. All that dead time to squeeze in sponsors.

You needed that to confirm it? Ok then..

..and if he does get that amount then we'll be celebrating because he had an amazing season.
