  1. Here's the real question - If Odell Beckham didn't do what he did, would this still even be a discussion?

     

     

     

    I don't hear anyone but the most delusional Browns fans saying they'd trade Watkins for Justin Gilbert and the 19th pick in this draft. Most people seem to be getting hung up on Beckham without realizing no one had him valued at #9 and bringing him up is some serious revisionist history. It's clearly worth it, Sammy came up huge in a couple of wins last year and we haven't had a WR of his caliber since Moulds was in his prime.

     

    I agree....

     

    If Buffalo had Manning as their QB there wouldn't be any discussion either. Beckham would not have put up anywhere near those numbers dealing with Buffalo's QBs.

  2. Williams is the only player I can see getting cut.

     

    They could ask mckelvin to restructure some. They could ask Cassel to restructure his contract to open up space to add another player.

     

    With Davis.....he will be held onto. You have no idea what injuries could happen. Buffalo could deal one of the backs if other teams need someone.

     

    Another factor here is who they draft. This could push 1-2 name players out.

  3. We had actually a really good defense that was 4-3 defense.

     

    It kept us in games the year before where buffalo was still in the game either lead, tied, or one score down when entering the 4th in something like 14 of the 16 games.

     

    The offense was so inept it fist us.

     

    Gailey should have kept the defense as us instead if give his buddy a job that set the defense back by trying yo switch irpt to a 3-4.

  4. I think the injuries take their toll, and that's why he has lost his desire. I can't be critical of his decision......being hurt all the time in the NFL goes w the territory, and I can see the appeal of getting out while he is still whole (if he still is).

     

    He had numerous injuries which played a big role....

     

    he also has the baseball skills to fall back on. In baseball you dont have the injury risk like in football.

  5. When news came from colleague Adam Schefter that former Buffalo Bills head coach Doug Marrone did not approve of the team's decision to trade up in the 2014 NFL draft to select Clemson wide receiver Sammy Watkins, giving away their 2015 first-round pick in the process, it provided a natural opportunity to assess the merits of the trade.

    In many cases -- regardless of whether the transaction is a trade, free-agent signing or draft selection -- there's a tendency to forge a knee-jerk reaction that can prove to be inaccurate in the long term. But while Watkins' career is far from over, based on a multitude of factors involved, it's hard to disagree with the sentiment suggested by Marrone: The decision to trade up for him was not the right move.

    Thus story is flaky at best....

     

    Saying Becker would have been just as good on buffalo is questionable at best given the offense. Bechham benefited from the QB he had. Had Watkins had Eli he would have been velar cut top WR.

     

    In the pick chart...buffalo was going all in give Wilson's death a potential new owner. They wanted to keep draft picks in 2014, thus they had to give up more in 3015 given pick uncertainty.

     

    If you look at past trades to get to the top 5 you usually need to overpay. Than what the chart says.

  6. Buffalo likely gets a MNF game hosting Dallas or New England

     

    Thursday night game could be New England/buffalo game

     

    I think buffalo at KC has an outside shot. Thus would be the 8th consecutive treason playing each other and if buffalo was to hire Reich or the Denver OC there would be another reason to air this game.

  7. Strength of schedule is total BS. Houston, KC, and SD all beat us yet pick ahead of us.

     

    I'm fine with it...giving up the 19th pick yo trade up is well worth it.

     

    It has happened before. One year buffalo and mismi were tied for last place, mismi swept thus hot a 3rd place opponent schedule but because of a weaker SoS they picked ahead of buffalo.

  8. Updated

     

    Assume Baltimore loses given 3 score deficit

     

    Buffalo win 2

    Cincinnati lose on Monday

    KC beat SD or they tie

    Either Cincinnati or Baltimore lose next Sunday

     

    Win/lose to DEN doesn't matter...CIN/PIT would be for division title. If Indy wins out there ould be a wild card rematch of Cincinnati and Pittsburgh

     

     

    In the NFC

     

    Atlanta Carolina winner take all next week

     

    Philadelphia only hope...Dallas lose 2 and they win next week.

    If Dallas wins Seattle gets in too.

     

    The scenario on seattle...they and Dallas both lose out...Philadelphia wins the division by winning, then Seattle loses tiebreaker to Dallas.

     

    Detroit Green Bay fir division.
