Didn’t that video scream of insecurity? I think he remembers a little too well Allen in one of his first starts handing the Vikings ars to them, and no the LB didn’t let Allen hurdle him ( he outplayed the defender ). Dumb rookie move, but brassy for doing it. Where was Cousins play in that game against our defense? Did you ever think maybe he was just complimenting his #1 WR, and acknowledging he was selfless in the players constructed practices. It had nothing to do with bashing Vikings fans which are great by the way, just the local and national media frothing at the mouth to say negative things about Diggs. Did you ever think maybe he just wasn’t happy how he was being used in MN. It doesn’t mean Allen, Diggs, our fans think anything negatively about Vikings fans. I know I don’t. I just look at every situation there is two sides to any story. Moving on.

Not sure Doc, but if he’s smart, a 3rd pick in Moss should prolong his career, not competition as they are different types of RB’s. He gets to share the load and barring freakish accidents, he’ll last longer. Besides players are smarter for not commenting on new draft picks at their position, other than to welcome him, and we’ll learn from each other. The typical player speak vs. the Rodgers answer when they drafted a QB this year. It’s like the Corlione family motto, “Santino, never tell anyone outside the family what you’re thinking”. Love that movie.

I do feel for the UDFA. You must have been listening to MTC on Wednesday on NFLR. They are rating different positIon groups so this Wednesday their theme was rating the AFCE WR/TE groups. If you have Sirius, you can go to the on demand link and look for W afternoon show. The Bills were the first of the four. Well, they went through our drafted and experienced players, because they find it highly unlikely the UDFA will even make the 53. If interested, they were quite positive about the Bills, and indicated they kept 10 active last year, and Kirwan mentioned coaches have tendencies as if they kept 10 total active last year, they most likely will keep 10 this year. Here is who they rattled off. Diggs Brown Beasely Davis Roberts (I cant remember if they said Williams or McKenzie, but I think it was Williams) Knox Kroft Sweeney Smith They thought it would be very difficult for Hodges to even make the active 53, and more likely a PS guy. Additionally, they thought with a condensed training camp, no off season OTA’s, only two potential preseason games, the beginning of training camp is likely to be all conditioning for two weeks, that an UDFA is a long shot to even make the PS let alone the active roster. That really is too bad as there is always a diamond in the rough in a normal off season you pick up and shines. So this is a marathon answer Putin and all, that these guys were pretty sharp in their logic as to why this pandemic will be hardest on UDFAs. This series has been fun as they already broke down all the O Lines, ranked the top 5, Pass Rush, now they are starting the other position groups. Fun for some light listening while you’re driving around if you have both the radio Sirius and the App for you’re phone like Radio.com does for WGR.

The pandemic is driving the bus, which is why Goodell upon advice from their medical team advised not to have joint practices. If you’re referring to next year when hopefully we have a vaccine, then sure. Coaches can learn just as much from The joint practices as they can from a pre season game. Besides, most people don’t even watch a whole pre season game.

GB, that’s why my only social media is this board. No Facebook, insta, snap whatever is for me. I think Simms is dead wrong, but I really don’t care. It’s like anything else, what these players do on the field is the only thing that matters which is why all of these analysts making predictions is just talk.

Doc, you’re right a moment of silence is very appropriate. The problem is not in kneeling, or standing, it’s complacency over time and more than kneeling or any other peaceful protest, it’s our law enforcement agencies enforcing their already rules in their patrol guide including repercussions for breaking the patrol guide. In addition, it’s all of us teaching our children with every action and being a role model, it’s not black lives matter, it’s all lives matter. That is not to say the black lives matter movement is not a great step, I’m just taking it farther. Arabic lives matter, asian lives matter Hispanic lives matter, women’s lives matter, and so on. Stopping prejudice starts at home, and not allowing it from others. I do my very best to be kind to all people regardless of what I wrote above, and regardless of their socioeconomic status. It’s interesting every corporation I’ve ever worked has a zero tolerance for any off color jokes, comments, etc.

It doesn’t bother me at all if a player wants to legally and silently protest in this manner as it is their legal right. The league should have never made it a stipulation players cannot. I also applaud players who actually do something to further the cause about equality for all. Having said that, I wouldn’t do it as I have been raised to put my hand over my heart for the fallen. People on the league if they want to silently protest, ok. They aren’t hurting anyone, they are not looting, committing acts of violence, or anything else.

Boom Shaka lake Boom. Love it my friend. Have a great rest of the weekend.

Same Hondo. I see Allen being good, maybe even top 10 especially when we consider someday, Brady, Brees, Big Ben, Rivers (not that he’s in that league, but he is solid), and in time Rodgers retires. Once these stars leave, Allen has a chance in two years to be at least top 10. This year will make a big statement.

M squared, I think you’re right. 2020 will be the year of DS, but Moss’s contributions will grow and when we need 3rd and 2, or 4th and 1, Moss will be the obvious choice and he’ll still do it. DS is like a young McCoy, and Moss could be the next Henry, Carson, etc. If we want Moss to last, especially with the knee thing, we need to use him when we need it, not needlessly. Oh and the DiMarco comment is silly. I’m sure it must have been a joke.

Fair points on Lamar as it is probably too early to tell, but if they keep constructing a team around his skills, he has a chance. Ravens fans would shoot me, but I’ll take Allen over Lamar as I sincerely believe Allen eventually has a higher ceiling. If Lamar doesn’t improve as a passer, he can only survive as a running QB for so long as lol at Cam. He sparked quite a bit last year, so like Allen he needs to take a big step this year.

Good catch Ralph as Alex Smith doesn’t get the credit he deserves. He was on a horrible SF team, but seemed to hit his rhythm in KC, and I doubt anyone is not thinking Mahomes is a franchise guy.

Well said Putin. Back in his prime Bledsoe was good enough to get them to a SB, even though they lost, and there is no argument about Brady. The Ravens might have it if Lamar Jackson ends up as there franchise guy, as Flacco was their franchise guy for 10 years, won a SB, and spanked the Pats a couple of times in the playoffs.

Ganesh, I don’t think they would invest a 3rd rd pick to not commit to a balanced attack. I could see us leading the league in rushing, and getting to say 12th or so in passing. I understand the comment was a little job at Daboll, and a fair point.

The key point is he really doesn’t have leverage. If he pulls what Bell did, how did that workout for him? He lost a $14.5 mil. Contract from Pittsburgh (a good team) for a $13.5 Mil. Contract and lost $14.5 mil. During his holdout year. He also ends up on the J-E-T-S, JETS, JETS, JETS with a coach who stinks and oh by the way doesn’t want him for the $, and didn’t use him the right way. He will go into oblivion and lose tons of $ by the time he’s done. Cook can get a decent contract in 2021 and the dumbest thing is his agent knows MN is tight in the cap which is why they let Diggs go for the picks. Cook will be lucky to get a high end contract as MN can simply move on and select another RB with one of our draft picks from the trade. This was not well played by Cook’s agent.

Well, I remember Brissett, but not the others although I think The notion of the Pats being overtly racist is silly. I hate the Cheats just like most on TBD, but I’m not going to make a slanderous comment that has no basis in truth. Dogbyte, you’re right as the last QB we acquired of color I can remember was TT. He was welcomed in Buffalo, but just didn’t pan out given he only threw to wide open WR.

Knox didn’t catch hardly at all in college as has been reported so it makes sense with the speed of the NFL, he would go through a learning curve. Hapless is right he has an upside to him and probably with an off season will be better prepared this year. The real question is there is no way the coaches didn’t know he was still learning how to catch in the NFL, so why was he targeted 50 times when he was still learning? I’m not one of the Daboll bashes as he made mistakes, but overall did a decent job. He as the same coordinator for Allen going into a third year logically should be good for our QB. It just seemed like he rolled the dice on that many targets, vs. using him sparingly. It is possible to speculate he was forced to do so as Sweeney was learning too, Smith is a blocker and couldn’t catch a cold, and here it is, Kroft was a mistake. He was hurt and was also a waste of $. I know he renegotiated his contract, but you have to play. Knox was caught a little over his head his rookie year, but again I believe he will improve this year. I’ll applaud Beane when he lets go Kroft after this year as I believe we can cut him without penalty after 2020. Besides next year’s draft is supposed to be rich in TE prospects.

He and Moss are going to be fun to watch this year and beyond. These two will take a lot of pressure off of Allen.

BB1998, did you not see us drafting Moss after already having Singletary. Why would we ever trade for a RB when we are set at the position, and our two guys are on rookie contracts. That makes zero sense. I understand you’re just floating it, but this won’t happen. We need to keep our draft assets. In addition, the cap will go down so we need our draft assets even more. We also have a number of people to extend like White, Milano, Dawkins, and others.

Simms is really reaching to get some pub. Tua is far more impressive, but his only weak spot as we know is the injury thing. If Tua stays healthy, in a couple of years Miami could be a good team.

I knew we were returning a lot, but #1 is great, and what we brought in vs. lost even better. Then consider so much of the scouting, management, and coaching staff returning.

Ridgeway, I think you’re joking, but you do see my avatar I live in Tampa, born and raised in Buffalo, but have been a Regional Director so had a rep in NE. The last thing I want to do is live in NE. I gUess you’re kidding on the National thing and if Kronke can’t maintain costs, I don’t care. I don’t live in CA, thank god, for no other reason than the cost of living and taxes, but if CA wants to kick in, I have no opinion.

The Rams stadium reminds me of that boondoggle in the Chunnel in Boston. They initially requested from the Feds $2 bil. For that tunnel. Granted the congestion there is insane, as bad if not worse than NYC, DC, or ATL., but $16 bil. later of our federal tax dollars for something pretty much only NE people use regularly is crazy. If Kronke pays for the additional $500 mil. I could care less. I can’t see CA ponying up as they are perpetually broke.

There is nothing wrong with a little more checkdowns to keep the chains moving, and under pressure, it’s also ok to throw it away vs. a pick or a sack. Palmer under interviews has acknowledged he was working on Allen between the ears as much as his body mechanics. We’ll see how it works.

NJ, I watched him throughout college as the UCF games are on network TV down here. He had more yards than Brandon Marshall at UCF. He will be a nice compliment and depth for the offense. He runs routes very well, and has the speed and size to have an impact on ST. Allen should do a lot better this year as he has two different kinds of RB’s, a minimum of four WR’s who can help, and I’m guessing Knox probably improved in the off season in his catches.
