    And he won’t win the the defense can’t get stops.  We’ve seen Josh play better than any QB in the history of the league…. And still lost….because we couldn’t get stops.  Until we can, we will continue to lose in the playoffs.  The defense has to get better.

    I’m absolutely amazed that people can argue with this.

     

    Every season people complain about the defense letting us down.  Yet in the offseason  the same people want to focus on improving our strength

    A lot of stuff has been made about that drop. It was a miracle Josh got the ball off. It was also a VERY difficult catch for where the ball was thrown to. Should be have caught it? Yeah probably. But no one seems to mention that even if he did catch it, it was fourth down and he still would have been a yard and a half short of the first, laying on the ground with Chiefs all over him. 

     

    Even if he somehow makes that terrific catch...games still over. 

    No, it was well past the sticks

    Interesting signing. I liked him coming out of Colorado but haven’t heard much about him in the NFL. He's a hybrid type player WR/RB.

    That’s the hopeful path, a late career Coderell Patterson type breakout

    I like the highlights that are showing his one sack a year lol. The player and cost is fine. 
     

    It’s interesting that they are bringing him in. He’s played in both a 4-3 and a 3-4. Hoecht has also done both and the same for Bosa. Are we becoming a multiple defense? 
     

    He had his best sack numbers in a 4-3 as a 3 tech. I wonder if the idea is to make Carter both a 3 and a 1 as the last DL on the roster. Lotta questions on fit for this one but they obviously have a plan 

     

    He's had as many as 7 sacks in a year

    My all time WR group of guys in my lifetime as a fan:  Moss & Megatron outside, Jerry Rice in the slot.  Megatron was the biggest WR in the league, almost the fastest, maybe the best route runner, and had incredible hands whether the catch was contested or not.  He's basically the perfect WR you'd construct in a lab.  If his career was longer and/or he played on better teams, there could've been a real argument for him as best ever.  As is, he's still easily on the short list for guys you'd want for one game or one season. 

     

     

    I agree with most of this.  I liked our offense a lot last year, but pre-Cooper it showed it had a real weakness, and the addition of Cooper helped but didn't fully address it.  And "everybody eats" can work just as well with more receiving talent, provided that receiving talent doesn't have a Diggs-type attitude.  I would argue it works better:  If the defense really has to account for a guy who'll otherwise feast on them, then that opens things up for everyone else.  So hypothetically, DK would either be feasting on bad/dumb/cocky teams, or putting up low numbers but freeing up Shakir et al for big production.

     

     

    Until I'm proven wrong, I will maintain that Allen's deep ball numbers will look a lot better if/when we get him better deep ball targets.  I'm of the opinion that the pass catcher has way more to do with deep ball success than he does with short or intermediate catches.  Just think about it: On every deep ball, the QB releases the ball when the receiver is maybe 10-30 yards away from the catch point.  And yeah, we've all seen some truly uncatchable balls from Allen and others, but a lot of the "bad passes" we've seen are IMO bad adjustments by the WR, or inability of the WR to leverage his body against the defender, etc.

    He just doesn’t use sufficient arc on the deep shots which limits how trackable the balls are.

     

    the best deep ball throwers don’t necessarily have to have the biggest arms, but they tend to throw those catchable “moon balls”

    I like Cooper and I feel like he’s been getting unfair treatment here, but Metcalf is twice the player. I think he’s better than a prime Diggs as well. Allen and DKM would be lethal. Two absolute athletic freaks. Metcalf can stretch the field as well. He can pretty much do anything and line up anywhere. Extremely durable as well, missing only 3 games in 6 seasons. He’s been grossly underused in Seattle and obviously he realizes that as well.
     

    Geno Smith an admirable comeback story and is a great “bridge” QB, but he has no business being a franchise QB. With Josh Allen, Metcalf would be getting 1400+ 10+ TDs every year. If Buffalo can’t land a top pass rusher then they need to match whatever Green Bay may be offering.
     

    The NFCN is a lot more competitive than the AFCE. If he’s interested in going to a contender, Buffalo is the better landing spot if he truly wants to compete for a title. 

    Not sure I agree.  DK is an elite one trick pony.  And that one trick is not something Josh is even good at.  
     

    we certainly need outside speed.  But it’s probably not smart giving up multiple draft assets PLUS a big salary for a one dimensional deep threat to pair with a poor deep ball thrower

    So based on reporting, you have to come in and beat Green Bay's offer. That means a 1st, maybe a 4th, and maybe giving up Keon Coleman too (or Kincaid?) if it comes to it. He had his best game against Seattle so perhaps they'd be intrigued.

     

    I hope we make this happen if it's a real possibility. It goes without saying but this moves the needle big time. A real downfield passing offense combined with last year's run offense has championship potential.

     

     

    If they can't get DK Metcalf in his prime involved in the offense, then go ahead and just fire the entire coaching staff now.

     

    Drafting DK was the obvious move, especially in round two.

     

    But I'd be leery of a massive investment in him now.  Strikes me as the type of body that will start to breakdown early, David Boston-esque.

    I think I'd tend to go slightly higher up to market at safety

    Safety market is absolutely loaded.  Justin Reid-Jeremy Chinn-Julian Blackmon-Jevon Holland-Trevon Moehrig-Andre Cisco-Camryn Bynum-Tahanoa Hufanga...  One of these will be a Bill, IMO.

    There definitely will be a place for him in the league..  he will grind out special teams great too 

     

    The thing that makes it tough for his draft status is his playing competition and size / athleticism combo 

     

    If he was 6'3 238 lb and ran in the 4.5s.. he could go in the top three or four 

     

    Being around 225-230 with not a lot of room to add weight and concerns about his man coverage ability at the next level puts him in squarely as a developmental type guy rn who has good tape with instincts

     

    Which is why he's mostly pegged as an undrafted or late round pick

     

     

     

     

    I think the lack of size/athleticism actually moves him up the Bills board
