  1. I think McDermott should open the first team meeting with an apology and an encouragement to move on from it.

     

    I also believe that the failure led to several offseason signings, especially the Von Miller deal.  In the long run, these signings turned on the aggression switch inside Beane's head, which resulted in our team being substantially better than they would be had they won.  There are no guarantees that they would have beat Cinci and the Rams.  Had they lost the Super Bowl, that  may have been even more disappointing than the 13 seconds.  

     

    Therefore, in the long run I believe the 13 second debacle might turn out to be a good thing.

  2. They spend months putting the board together.  This isn't a random pick.  They obviously have an idea what to do with him.  They don't intentionally throw away picks.  I trust them.  

     

    That said, I've been doing mock drafts for months and I never heard of the guy.  Probably because I wasn't looking for linebackers beyond Muma.

  3. Hardy friggin' har.   We all know more than Beane.  There's a reason he signed him.  Maybe Kromer asked for him as a reclamation project.  We don't know.  He's on the team, so let's just support the signing and let it play out.  

  4. I like both picks.  I listen to the pod where he and Kiper get into it every week.  They are both very knowledgeable but we all know that mock drafts are just for fun and they're part of it.  

     

    I do think it's time for the Bills to get a stud RB so that Josh doesn't have to take all the 3rd and 4th down runs.  Why risk injury?

    That is an interesting thought.  I feel there's an eerie quiet on the Edmunds situation.  However, their bringing in his former college teammate....would lead one to believe they're keeping him.

    The only guy I could see them moving up for is Sauce Gardner.

  6. I just read the first couple pages of comments.  This is not a random signing that we can criticize.  I'd never heard of McKissic till this week, and I've heard of Duke.  Which means nothing.  But after watching clips, I can see why he's got value to the team.  How anybody can criticize a Beane move at this point is beyond my comprehension.

  7. Cut Star, don't resign Mario or Hughes, and you've got Jones, Rousseau, Basham and Epenesa....I'd keep Obada too.  

    He'd put us in a new level on defense.....instead of leading the league in pressure, we'd lead the league in sacks too.  You can't double team everybody.  

    I'd try and keep Harry and Zimmer, and draft somebody like Jones or Perriman or the kid from Alabama to plug up the middle.  

     

    Our defense was extremely good without a sack master.  Having Jones lead the way, the others would also get more sacks.  

     

    Jones would also get a couple or more cracks at the Patriots, who dumped him a few years ago.  I'm pretty sure he'd like that.

  8. He seems to be extremely motivated by negative press.  The further he drops, the better he'll play.  Like Thurman.  If we get him at 25, and he gets some time with the fans here, he may be a long-term monster.

     

    He ran the 40 faster than Mahomes.
