    I love this pick.....the dude is a bruiser, has a motor that doesn't quit and great vision.

     

    He kind of reminds me of a cross between a Thurman Thomas and a Ladainian Tomlinson. 

    I know everyone is talking about the Coleman pick, but this is the guy i'm wanting to see the most in action.

    Although he’s a tick slower, I get a Maurice Jones Drew vibe when watching him.

    Goodell (booooooo) proposed Feb President day weekend for Super Bowl. 18 weeks. 
    yeah, that dome!!!???  So, 1970s last regular game was Dec 10th. All you boomers saying today is same? Nov Dec Jan Feb. this is not a fall sport anymore!!

    Great point about how far into winter the schedule goes nowadays vs. the 70s when the season always ended before Christmas. If anything, the NFL should start the season earlier, but the broadcast networks won’t allow that as it would compete with the start of college football for ratings. 

    This Will Be The Make Or Break Year For This Regime

    Idk how anyone can think this is a "make or break year" when everyone from the top down says this is a "year of transition".

    It doesnt quite mesh with 'make or break' does it?

    Only way i'd see Coach getting fired is if we start 0-10 with a 100% healthy Josh Allen. That decision, as well as making a run for the SB, are all delayed til next year.

    We're in transition :P

    When fans insist that it’s a make or break year, it really has nothing to do with McBeane but rather their own projections because it’s really a make or break year for them.

    Walking into FSU from Michigan St and basically being the guy instantly is impressive. Big time NIL get and tells coach make me the return man.  Not many players in the NIL, transfer portal world have that mindset.

    He certainly doesn’t lack the confidence required for the job. But more importantly, he looks like a high effort, play to the whistle, pain in the butt to play against. Loved watching his run blocking in the Cover 1 video. He didn’t care if the play was to his side of the field or not as he was trucking guys far away from the play like he is adamant that the guy lined up across from him was not gonna make the tackle, period. He’s gonna piss off some DBs in the NFL because he doesn’t take a play off. Looking forward to it.

    God I hope this kid is good, he has a great personality, such a like-able dude.     

     

    Would be a shame if he struggles to produce.    Only time will tell. 

    I think he’s gonna need a couple years of pro coaching and experience before he really starts to hit his stride. Not saying he won’t contribute immediately, because he will. His sheer athleticism will provide those opportunities and with a guy like Josh throwing to him, he’s gonna get some plays going his way. I’m looking forward to his development because he has so much room for growth at the position. Chris Brown made a good point earlier when he said Coleman spent half his college career playing two sports and that alone suggests he couldn’t devote the time and dedication to learning the position in a comprehensive manner.

    You're probably right.

    But it did seem like pressure ramped up on McD mid-season last year. 
    I think the team's resolve in turning it around reflects well on him as a leader of men, but also masked the underlying flaws in the philosophy.

    Fans should not be complacent if it doesn't so well this year. With JA at QB a lot of coaches could do what McD has done, but a really good one could take us to the next level.

    Complacent or not, the fans will have no bearing on the situation one way or the other. We can all bring our pitchforks and shovels and storm the castle at One Bills Drive, but Pegula likes the overall success we’ve had with this regime and he’s gonna give them every chance to get over the hump.

    I don't think so. He's listed as a CB

    how is a 6th round pick sneaky good....and what is sneaky about it? was wondering when someone was going to say sneaky good about something. The new phrase

    “Sneaky good” is an old phrase that’s been around for as long as I can remember. I first heard it applied to Robert James by a press box statistician at the Rockpile in James’s rookie year because James just kept making plays in kickoff coverage. It’s used to describe players/transactions that nobody pays much, if any, attention to at the time and people are like, “Whoa, where did this guy come from?”, when he does something noticeable. It’s sneaky because nobody saw it coming. 

    Would the Chiefs had ended up with Worthy without the trade with the Bills?

    Well we all know DeWayne Carter is going to be a hof DT but they play different positions. Jaden Hicks and Cole Bishop are both safeties so they’re more relevant comparison. So imagine giving KC the opportunity to pick Worthy and he turns out great. Then with the next pick they got from Buffalo select a better player than Buffalo did while picking 73 spots later for the same position. You know that’s something the media would definitely lean into. 

    I think the larger point is who gets the better player with the exchanged draft picks; the pick we got from KC or the pick they got from us. But your mileage may vary and that’s perfectly ok.

    But they gave KC their 4th round pick at #133 so really swapping picks not gaining an extra pick. KC used that #133 pick on Jaden Hicks. If he turns out to be a better db than Cole Bishop, whom the Bills took with pick #60, then we’ll never hear the end of this trade from the media. 

    And if DeWayne Carter, drafted with the 3rd round pick obtained from KC, turns out to be a better player than Jaden Hicks, will the media shut up then?

    Jerry Jones loves Texas players and the rumor was that Dallas was looking into Worthy.  I’m guessing that KC called Buffalo because they felt there was a chance Dallas (or one of the other remaining teams) were drafting Worthy.  
     

    We’ll never know who the other 3 teams would have picked.  But I can’t see it going either way

    I don’t put any stock in that rumor. Jerry Jones loved Worthy from Texas so much, he passed on him at 24 and traded down to 29, where once again, he loved him so much he didn’t want to move up one lousy spot in the draft to get him. 
     

    KC was getting Worthy at 32, regardless, and if the Bills had traded down with anyone else at 28 nobody would give a crap and this absurd narrative never would have taken hold.

    Honest question? Do people really think this matters? Josh tossing the ball around a HS field for a couple hours one weekend this summer. I mean it can't hurt but seriously how much can it possibly matter.

     

    You think in the KC game they said on the sideline remember that out pattern you threw me on the Lockport Lions field in June? Let's do that again!

    It’s about building a rapport and and working on timing.

    They did? 
     

    20 games, 41 receptions for 340 yards and 3 TD.


    12 games with the Giants - 41 receptions and 420 yards. 

    If that is serviceable, especially with a QB like Mahomes, then I’d hate to see non- serviceable with a crappy QB. 

    Do You Like What Beane Did in the First Round?

    in The Stadium Wall

    Posted

    Beane said he didn’t have 28 first round grades so I nave no problem with him sticking to his board and trading out of the 1st round. Yeah, it sucks that it was KC, but as others have said, they would have taken Worthy, anyway. If it were anyone BUT the Chiefs, I doubt too many would be upset today, except the children on WGR.
