  1. Yep, he 100% tapped out on the 2024 season when he decided the toe sprain was going to be too much for him to play with in 2024 and possibly all the way until recently. I didn't say he "quit". That's where you've lied again. Just like you probably lied about knowing he was a standout in camp last year. Saying he just quit implies that no compelling reason was given as to why he couldn't continue. He offered a compelling reason. But he still tapped out. The question is if anyone in the NFL believes anything he says and if any of it is even worth answering his phone call after what he's BEEN. A non-factor for the last 3 years. You think teams should believe in him and give him a 4th chance or whatever he's on. You also believed him when he said he had a good camp......which wasn't true. I guess we could debate the definition of gullible next.
  2. Josh Allen is the most O-Line friendly QB in the league. Even Mahomes and Lamar leave their O-lines more exposed to negative statistical outcomes. The Bills have very good tackles.......average-ish guards.......and a solid center. No elite performers. Allen, a commitment to the run game and the frequent use of a 6th OL make them perform at an elite level though.
  3. Show me where I said Claypool quit on the Bills? He missed the entire season with an injury they called day-to-day until they abruptly IR'd him. You've misremembered something again and this time you could have just referenced it directly from this thread. He quit on the Bears. https://www.sportsmockery.com/chicago-bears/chase-claypool-reveals-the-stupid-reason-he-basically-quit-in-chicago/ He was a malcontent "at best" in Pittsburgh. It got much worse in Chicago. And he then ended the Dolphins season with what sure looked like a no-f#cks given effort as @GunnerBill mentioned. This dude's career went south in the aftermath of that Steelers loss in Minnesota on November 27, 2021. That was a LONG time ago.
  4. Oh so you are going to avoid your false claim that he was having an "outstanding camp"? 😂 OTA's. 😂
  5. A lot of people have responded to this thread not reading the part where Barnwell explained that he adds more weight to the WR position than others. Which is how it should be. Of these 3 skill positions WR's are more able to impact the game individually. That's why they are the only one's who get paid premium level pay. And even then it's really just the boundary receivers who get that money.
  6. As with MOST player criticism, the criticism is ultimately directed at the people who selected or paid or kept playing that player when they failed etc.. He was a reach for need. Day 3 talent but they needed a body at NT so Nix very carelessly used a borderline premium pick on him. Even though the pick of an under-sized NT was likely to look incredibly stupid regardless in an NFL landscape where good NT's were signing 1 year $4M type FA deals. Unburdened by the need to be proven right, the Bills then spoke in hushed tones about how good he would have been. He became a mythical beast. Hence, the nickname associated with the draft pick.
  7. What reality is that? He was literally injured early in the first morning practice of camp. He missed the rest of the day. The toe injury "reportedly" happened just a few practices later, though it likely is what happened in that first practice. He didn't have an outstanding camp. He was on the sideline nursing an injury the team listed as "day to day" for 3 weeks then he got IR'd on August 16.
  8. Injuries most definitely aren't why he went from being dealt for a high second round pick in 2022 to being a street free agent reaching for a life-line in the span of about 15 months. Very little injury in his NFL history really. He was a head-case in 2022 but should have lost any benefit of the doubt when he ghosted the Bears in-season in 2023. That was crazy. Typically only see something like that when a player is about to appear in a string of arrest/lawsuit stories. The Dolphins gave him another shot and he just went thru the motions. Only months later the Bills pick him up and fans expect him to be someone entirely different.
  9. Yeah there is reason to question Ed Oliver's preparation and ability to perform at his best early in seasons. There always was, IMO, but then when he had the strong season from beginning to end in 2023 after spending that offseason thinking it was his walk year that pretty much spelled it out. When the carrot was there he was in midseason form from the start. By the time he signed that deal the hay was in the barn and he was in top shape. Contract chases tend to motivate. I was actually hoping the Rousseau extension would come in the summer like it did with Oliver. I think Rousseau is probably more of the personality type where he stays ready but still would have liked to see what a contract chase would have done for him.
  10. Again, the big issue with Dalton Kincaid was just that he was HORRENDOUS in the playoffs. Yeah he hasn't played up to expectations but his regular season play was pretty innocuous. They barely needed him in the regular season. I keep hearing the sob stories about his knee injuries.......well he must have been playing with two sprained hands in the playoffs because the issue wasn't his running it was that he couldn't catch the damn ball.
  11. Yeah Hailee already had a better place. I guess Josh is an Encino man now. They will probably upgrade on that too.
  12. There is always a risk when you put someone who isn't all-about-it in a locker room of a team whose goal is to be the best. He has shown he doesn't love football. He basically refused to play in Chicago. And has shown he didn't stand on business either. The way he let his career go when he was on the precipice of getting paid tens of millions of dollars by simply producing something resembling what he was in his first couple seasons to do it......is crazy. Players kinda' HAVE to be one or both of those things to endure in the NFL. IMO this is just a guy who is facing an identity crisis. He doesn't love the game but doesn't know what else to do. I think when ***** starts getting difficult he will tap-out again just like he did last year.
  13. Glover was pretty awesome for a long time. At one time he was the best pass rushing DT in the NFL. 2000 NFC defensive player of the year. Member of the 2000's NFL all decade team. Teller had a very nice couple years but has been in decline. I don't think that one is particularly close but Teller was definitely one of Beane's day 3 HR's.
  14. Yeah if Paup hadn't suffered that severe groin injury he would probably have put up several more seasons like his first in Buffalo. That takes me back to Butler passing on Jason Taylor in 1997. That would have been a great transition from Paup because after the injury Bryce was never the same.
  15. Eh.....maybe but he ate up massive amounts of credibility by being a massive head case in the prior 2 NFL seasons. It was surprising the Bills gave him a shot. I don't think people like McBeane understand self-defeating personality disorders like Claypool clearly has because you rarely see people with issues like that reach the NFL. Being extraordinarily big and fast got him a long way but once he started getting criticized for his behavior on the field he decided he was going to withhold commitment to the game and that f#cked his career but good.
