Bleeding Bills Blue

The team was 0-7 in games Goff started, he completed less than 55% of his passes, for about 155 yards per game. 5.3 YPA. Only cracked 200 yards twice- both times in games they lost by more than 3 TDs. 5 tds to 7 INTs. Only threw a TD in 3 of 7 starts. More sacks allowed than Keenum. Threw for 90 yards in a loss to San Francisco where he completed fewer than 50% of his passes. He has to be much better, or they're going to cut their losses.

He did look significantly worse than case keenum once he was given the reigns FWIW... With the same coaching and midget

I think hes come off a bit selfish over the years. You don't hear jordy Nelson, Antonio brown, or Edelman complaining about targets, or NBA players making more money. Just doesn't seem like he's a fit for what they're trying to do, and they got a decent offer before it was too late. I don't know if that's it, or what it is, but I feel like there were a bunch of factors

By restructuring Glenn and dareus ur giving them more money up front. for the guy who's ankle is always hurt, and the guy who keeps screwing up

In 2019 not 2018 for the comp pick

Hey its a new coach - give him a chance... they've been a fisher team for so long we just expect them to be terrible. Personally Goff reminds me of Gabbert, which will not bode well for them though... Prove me wrong!

Then it must've gone up with the contract extensions - my bad.

sure - their best player on defense hasn't showed up to camp yet, and they may or may not have a QB... Offensive line wasn't particularly great in the past. They're a lot like Buffalo was last year honestly....

You have "control" - it ties up a ton of cap space and he isn't guaranteed to show up.

Watkins 5th year option is so high at pick 4 that its basically a franchise tag.

Its 17 million. And its that or extend him.

I guess - but we're also at the point of hte season where most teams have made their rosters.

We have like none of our own drafted players as peopel keep bringing up - and beane makes a valid point saying teams are made in the draft because rookie contracts are soooo much cheaper

Does it? Doesn't it have injury guarantees?

Here is my take - The team has some very bad contracts on the books that they were left with. We also don't have a roster that is capable of competing with the perennial playoff teams like Pitt, GB, NE etc. It's not a total blow-up, but at the same time we need to add talent across the roster at multiple positions. Corner, WR, LB, QB Etc. But we also need to add talent at a cost effective price. Sammy probably was gone after the year which at best nets you 1 3rd round pick in 2019. We got a 2nd round pick in 2018. Darby was a good young corner who had ups and downs - but he wasn't a spectacular player by any means. He had a very poor 2016 season.

Are matthews and zay slow or something?

Their best player hasn't even showed up to camp...

and we were still 7-9... now that hes gone were 3-13??

The timing is questionable unless you used the beginning of camp to demonstrate watkins health. Or his recent comments were becoming a distraction. Either way - season tickets are printed and in peoples hands and you're dumping players for picks.

The guy who traded 2 first round picks for a wide receiver when we have no qb...

Lets be honest - we're waiting on brady to retire.

Where are we gonna replace 28 catches and 400 yards this year? We were 7-9 without him and with a pretty bad defense. If the Defense improves, are we better off with Jones - Matthews - boldin or Bob woods - mr. glass goodwin - and some janitor or something

Most certainly do! Wood Humber Preson Brown Gaines Henderson Worthy Matthews Hodges Johnson So probably later picks that fill out 2019's draft

We're going as far as TT takes us... i don't think watkins and darby were pushing the needle

a 2nd in 2018 or a 3rd in 2019. Which would you take?
