He was kidding.

Which was desperately needed!

Where are you seeing that?

Bills up? Go to advert!!!!!

Crap…I wanted him badly.

Macho Man idiot. Good Lord.

Nope, not specifically you. Many shared the sentiment that ‘they’re not perfect’.

I’m a little confused with all of the discussion around ‘perfection’. Trust was the question and I firmly trust this group. There is not one single FO that is perfect so using that as a bar is silly as far as I’m concerned. They have taken a team that hadn’t been to the playoffs in 17 years and were in the AFC championship last year. How does anyone NOT trust them?

It is a shame but this also shows how hard it is to find the right person to truly shift a culture.

For Trevor, the biggest issue for me, even beyond ‘bumps in the road’ is the fact that there was no discernible progression from frosh season until last year (as you mentioned). It’s the one thing that bothered me. I’m an SEC guy and it stood out to me in his second year…and never changed. With that being said, the young man clearly enjoys the game and is a true winner. Not to mention the physical abilities.

Doesn’t seem like a joke to me: "I know people who have gotten sick. It's not a fun thing. I think it's very serious. It's everybody's choice to get vaccinated or not. With the potential of you carrying the disease into my lot and maybe spread it to somebody else, I don't want that on me. I don't want to have that feeling," Eric Matwijow, the owner of Hammers Lot, said. https://www.wkbw.com/news/local-news/hammers-lot-will-require-proof-of-covid-19-vaccine-to-tailgate He appears to be controlling what he can control. It’s his prerogative and I, for one, appreciate it.

I heard it, too. Right here on TBD. Seems like silly nonsense to me.

He’s a winner judging by his college career. The reason I wasn’t high on the pick is his arm: he just doesn’t have enough of one. With that being said, I’m sure Beane and company have a better understanding of where he stands...and I doubt they’ll toss him after one partial year without compensation from someone.

I agree about the 1T. Having an anchor will be a game changer for pressure from Ed and that, in turn, will free up the DE’s.

Another lesson for the knee-jerk crowd.

Tons of potential but seemed to be made of glass.

This thread needs a title change in my opinion. Silly metric to begin with as it’s clearly highly subjective.

Agreed. I’m interested to see what the late round kid from last year can do (WR). If he can be a red zone threat it would be fantastic. That allows for DE or CB towards the top of the draft. Personally, I’m less worried about RB.

While I firmly believe that Josh was a diamond in the rough, I also believe there are more...and his swagger to do this ‘PSA’ is priceless!!!! I love this kid.

I wasn’t trying to argue, was seriously asking if the guy in question could set the edge. My fear is that if we get a guy who can only do one then we’re leaving ourselves open for the other. No idea who that person is right now...I didn’t watch enough NCAA this year, unfortunately. I met Derrick Thomas once briefly when he was opening his bar in Birmingham. Very cool man and came across as humble. Sadly, we lost him shortly thereafter.

While Marv had his shortcomings, I loved those years here. Glad he’s getting kudos from the north.

The Bills shut down KC’s passing game and they proceeded to run all over our D. For me, we need a more prototypical DE who can set the edge and rush the QB. Is that him?

I have not read all four pages so apologies if this has been covered. I agree with you. They need either a true 1T or a real DE. Either will change the D completely. The line...and the pressure they create...makes everyone else’s job all the easier. There’s more than one way to skin a cat (which is really disturbing to think of). With the obvious being said, I really appreciated how Frazier made adjustments as the year rolled. It’s a testament to him and the D players.

For me I just have to hit ‘Open in YouTube’. I was born in ‘69 so before my time but wonderful to see nonetheless! Thank you!

Please don’t let reality get into the way of the ball that is rolling into these threads! 😃 I have seen what you’ve seen. It is a shame. If you can be pushed on the field, you can be pushed in the classroom. If you get into trouble with the law, there are ways that can be handled as well...without getting off completely...and without being sunk. It’s a shame what happens to these young men.
