  1. Sorry Bill, but I Just slid all my chips to Tyree Jackson... Been headed that way for a while... I think he has the tools to accomplish the most of any QB in this draft. Put him with the right team (Tampa) with the right HC (Arians), and you can ****ing forget about it... There's just too much evidence that he's the real deal... N.O. would also be a nice spot for him to groom behind Brees, but truth be told, the kid needs minimal grooming... This is a touchdown machine waiting for a team with vision to see the possibilities.
  2. Pffft. -After about twelve years of marriage, they all look like that.
  3. I heard she looked like Pam Anderson but with forearms like Popeye... -Or was it the other way around?
  4. Edmunds is more like warden of the north by decree... If he screws up the job, or runs afoul politically with the Lannasters, I expect they''ll find someone else.
  5. When she's wearing the necklace, Melisandre has everyone beat... When she takes it off... Would you tap that to save the world?
  6. Felt bad for Sam when Dani told him about the Tarley-que... Nice of her to spare him the details.
  7. Judge said I'm not allowed within 500 feet of Karlos, anymore.... That's how fanhood gets repaid sometimes.
  8. Because he's only 26... McBeane won't sign RB's under 32....
  9. He's a big, burly back... Ya gotta feed the beast.... I jus hope he doesn't show up with the munchies.
  10. Admittedly, Special K slipped up with the weight thing... But the I truly believe the Bills management (at the time) handled it the wrong way... Karlos was coming off a phenomenal year, and he may have begun resting on his Laurels prematurely. IMO, that kind of production earned him the benefit of the doubt... Rex, Rob, and Whaley got a whole bunch wrong that season, and casting out Karlos was one more thing to add to that pile. -Come on, Is he worse than Randy Gregory? If he can stay clean, and return to fighting form, a team would be dumb not to give him a shot.... -He'd be a star in KC's passing attack, perhaps even a 1,000 yard rusher.
  11. He's got a buttload of kids to take care of... I hope he can get on a team and stay clean.
  12. I can't remember a more exciting rookie running back in a long time... Sure it's been four years, but if he's anything like the old Karlos he'd be a great fit with Mahommes and that passing attack. 11 games, 3 starts, 7 rushing TD's, 2 passing TD's, 5.6YPC!... Might be an excellent replacement for Kareem Hunt! https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/2019/02/22/kansas-city-chiefs-second-chance-rb-karlos-williams-reinstatement/
  13. I ike Fant, but he's been known to drop 'em from time to time.... Can't have that in the first... 2nd... Maybe even 3rd round. TJ Hockenson: - 2 drops on 75 catchable passes. - 7 contested catches. - 8 broken tackles. Noah Fant: - 13 drops on 91 catchable passes. - 4 contested catches. - 3 broken tackles.
  14. Great facilities, but the wall graphic should say CHAMPIONSHIP CALIBER... McBeane setting the bar too low, IMO.
  15. One of my all-time fave entertainers!... Staple in 70' and 80's game shows... -Million dollar smile. -Enjoy! https://www.biography.com/people/nipsey-russell-20632459
  16. Tyree is better than a lot of people think... I wouldn't mind seeing him in the 5th-6th... He's not a TE... Not built like one at all... He can make tough throws, and get himself out of Trouble... A shaky starter like Jameis Winston for example could lose his job to a kid like Tyree.
  17. Fun fact: -In 2018 Zay Jones was the first Bill receiver to see over 100 targets, (102) since the 2014 season Back in '14 Sammy and Bob Woods teamed up for 128 and 104 targets respectively. That year we went 9-7 with Kyle Orton at the helm (and EJ on the bench). Kyle freaking Orton! -Not a guy known for his passing prowess... Sammy would reel in a hair over 50% of the ducks thrown at him, and Bob Woods, about 62% Averaging 15.1 and 10.8 ypr, respectively. What's really interesting is that Fred Jackson had 90 passing targets that season, and would haul in 73.3% of the balls thrown his way for 7.6 ypr…. That is some solid help in the passing game at a time when we really needed it... I can't argue with us lacking elite playmakers currently. My issue is that once we get those playmakers, McDaboll must make sure they're getting chances to make plays. -A.K.A targets in the passing game... You can't play cards you're not dealt... Your #1 WR should be seeing 8-10 balls per game headed his way... Your starting RB shouldn't be too far behind. That's the kind of production divisional winners are cranking out... If the Bills were smart, they'd be following suit.
  18. Drunk in public, and putting his hands on a strange woman?
  19. Yes he does... His martian metabolism just converts it to lean muscle.
  20. You'll be pleased to know that I'm yielding from my previous stance... After some research, and deep personal reflection, Mcbeane's designs do appear less clouded than before... Admittedly, when broken down and put into context, the off-season moves seem more transparent, and methodical than previously thought... As much as it pains me to admit this, I am starting to see 'a plan'. A plan to get this entire regime fired by January. Why the hell else would you overpay for an ex-arena-league tackle who's never started more than 5 games in any of his 5 NFL seasons?( Nsekhe) Or, sign a guard from an o-line that allowed more sacks on the QB than any team in their division? (Spain) Or, sign a center/guard best known for his snaps over the QB's head? (Long) I won't even mention the RB old enough to have fathered the starting MLB! -Oops, I kinda mentioned that, sorry! Look, Cole Beasley is solid. Full stop. However, It's difficult to take on blind faith that Daboll can fashion an offense where specialty players like Beasley and Brown can thrive. The simple fact is that he hasn't been able to succeed in any of his previous stints as OC, and has yet to prove himself capable of making our own offense consistent. To your point about finding "impact players", I feel like the early picks should be made with a range of production in mind... For example, I would target a WR/TE I thought could handle 120-150 targets per season, catching at least 70% of those balls at 12-15ypr... That's the minimum standard for a #1 WR/TE in this league. That's what most of divisional champs are working with at the moment. I'd also target a RB that could bear a minimum of 80 targets in the passing game per season, -catching 75% of those balls for 8-10ypr, and still giving me 70-75 ypg on the ground. To me, that's the gold standard.. Think of what pieces like that could open up for a guy like Beasley who seems to excel in a system where the feature back is an established passing threat, and he's overlooked as a legit #2 WR because of his size.
  21. I think Allen to Beasley can be a good thing... However, I can't dismiss Allen's 52.8% completion percentage VS. Dak Prescott's 67.7% completion perentage... While I don't believe it represents horrible inaccuracy issues on Josh's part, I do think it represents a QB that needs solid help... I look at WR's in systems where RB's get a lot of passing targets, and they often feast... Zeke was a mainstay in that DAL passing offense with 95 targets/77catches (81.1%rec) to Beasley's 87 targets/65 catches (74.7% rec.)... Bob Woods and Gurley were beasts for Jared Goff (64.9 completion%) with 130 targets/86 catches (66.2% rec.) and 81 targets/59 catches (72.8% rec.) respectively. Lesean McCoy by contrast racked up just 44 targets... Gurley and McCoy hauled in roughly the same percentage of balls from those targets (around 73%), but there were way more balls thrown at Gurley. Zay had the most targets of any Bills WR with 102 targets/56 catches (54.9 % rec.) with Benjamin catching just 23 out of 62 balls thrown his way (37.1% rec.) I see Beasley doing better in a system where the serious passing threats aren't just the WR's... I have more to add to this in the next reply. The cream of last season's playoff TE's, Ebron, Ertz, Kelce all had 110+ targets during the 2019 season.... All 3 Bills TE's (Croom Thomas, Clay) combined for just 88 targets and 55 catches. Superbowl winning TE Rob Gronkowski had down year with just 72 targets/47 catches (65.3% rec).... The lions-share of passing targets for Brady went to RB James White! He was targeted 123 times and hauled in 87 balls (70.7% rec.) That eclipsed Julian Edelman's 108 targets/74 catches (65.8% rec.) Edelman and White were able to feast together, while Gronk kept a low profile. He would end up with 26.3% of his targets, and 27.6% of his catches in the post season. (When it mattered most) In 2018 Frank Gore played 14 games for MIA, but was targeted just 16 times for 12 catches... A good percentage (75% rec.) but paltry production... In fact, at age 36 his production in the passing game has steadily dropped over the past 3 seasons...He didn't even have any rushing TD's last year! McBeane would seem to be bucking a trend of young, feature backs helping-out, if not anchoring the passing game... It's been working for a lot of teams, -why not get on board? Again, I like Beasley, but if he's the class of our WR's at 5' 8", -getting nominal help in the passing game from other positions like RB and TE, I don't like his chances. A top TE (one named Hockenson preferably) and a stud value RB (there are several) would have the makings of a good plan to me. Not another plan to evaluate, or to 'see what we have'... A plan to win football games and take ownership of this friggin' division.
