There have been a few games here or there where he was disruptive and impactful. Bet we see a bunch more than 2 games like that this year. Let’s see.If we could get several games this year close to the way he played in the Lions game our d-line would be very disruptive.

Surely the end for Tim Settle? Poona and Daquan as the 1T, Ed and Big Phil at 3T.
But still 0 DTs signed beyond 2023.
I'm not sure if you're referring to Settle's playing time or cutting him when you say the end for him? His dead cap hit is almost a million more than his cap hit this year.

That's really not that close. They still had to beat Cinci which was no easy task.
I stand by this team hasn't even sniffed a Super Bowl appearence yet.
They went 15-4 and were a final 4 team in 2020. Matter of fact they were the #3 team in the league at years end, they picked 30th the following year in the draft. That's sniffing a Super Bowl appearance.

These are just guesses with limited study:
- Free Falling LB - If Trent Simpson is there at 91, I would fully expect him to be the pick.
- Free falling OT- I think if Dawand Jones continues tumbling the Bills will finish the job on the Oline and draft jones to compete with Brown. If he falls this far, I would like the Bills to take him there. So based more on desire than Analysis this would be my first choice in preference.
- I think they shift focust to defense. I think there are five LBs in play. NIck Herbig (who is listed as an edge) Dorian Willams, Dayian Henly, DeMarvion Overshown, Henry Too Too. Williams looks like the biggest reach here, but I the player I think the Bills will pick if the go linebacker here.
-
I think otherwise it will be secondary - Tre Tomlinsion, Jordan Battle (s), Cory Trice in that order depending on who is available.
So in summary
-
Trent Simpson - Dawand Jones
- Nick Herbig
- Dorian Williams
-
Daylan Henly - Tre Tomlinson
- Jordan Battle
- DeMarivion Overshown
- Cory Trice
- Henry Too Too
@ChaosI don't always agree with ya, but you've shown you know your college players and who the Bills are going to pick. This pick was a tough one and you had him as one of the top possibilities, including if they go LBer the Bills are going Dorian Williams.
Plus you had Kincaid falling to us in the 1st. Though you didn't have the trade up with Jacksonville lol. I know who I'm listening to next offseason about who the Bills are drafting!! Well done sir!👍

Like many here, I like Dalton Kincaid the player quite a bit.
The only hesitance I have in drafting him is that I was constantly yelling at my screen last year because Dorsey wasn't effectively scheming the athletic, mismatch tight end we ALREADY have on our roster and pay big money to. I'm dubious that a guy who couldn't find a way to effectively use one tight end will suddenly know how to effectively use two. For a first round tight end who figures to be second on the depth chart to be a worthwhile use of draft capital, he needs to actually be utilized with effectiveness and frequency.
Moreover, I was and am concerned about what I perceive to be Dorsey's failure to use the offensive weapons on the Bills roster in the way that best suits their traits. We drafted James Cook and traded for Nyheim Hines largely because both are receiving threats and mismatches against linebackers -- then completely failed to deploy them in that fashion. Gabe Davis did a lot of damage his first two years from the slot, matching up against small nickel corners, safeties, and linebackers. Dorsey rarely used him as such last year. As already mentioned, Dawson Knox is an athletic mismatch in the passing game in his own right, Dorsey failed to use him as much more than a last resort outlet receiver. Now add Kincaid to the pile of guys that require a specific type of usage to be most effective.
Going into 2023, with a formidable duo of tight ends, two speedy receiving backs, a top five WR, a big-bodied WR with excellent career touchdown production, and even new, speedy additions in Harty and Sherfield -- not to mention whoever the Bills add throughout the rest of draft weekend -- there will no longer be any excuses or training wheels for Ken Dorsey, in my opinion. "Not enough weapons" will no longer be a viable excuse.
If Dorsey can't scheme up a consistently effective offense that consistently makes use of guys like Cook, Knox, and Kincaid, he should be shown the door at the end of the year, in my opinion. There will be no shortage of brilliant offensive minds champing at the bit to work with Josh Allen and co if Dorsey can't cut it.Statistically our 2022 offense was better than the Daboll led 2021 offense and not quite as good as the 2020 offense. For instance we had more yards per game last year than 2021 & 2020.
We just did it with more big plays vs long sustained drives. But in saying that we still were within a half of a first down pper game compared to 2021. Too many redzone turnovers and short fgs kept our ppg average down this year.
But I also get your point that the RBs & TEs need to see more targets for this offense to be more effective. Part of that is on Josh, part of it's on Dorsey and part of it's on that terrible oline.

If Diggs is pissed, then get him the ball. When he has a good game, we win.
This is largely true. When Diggs gets 100+ yards in a game we are 14-2(Playoffs included).
The only 2 losses came against Tennessee in 2020 & Minnesota this past season.

After a year in which his elbow injury impacted him more than many knew, and in which he was adjusting to the first offensive coordinator change of his pro career, and which ended with a bunch of NFL fans again questioning Allen's place among the best passers in the league...
I predict Josh will have a monster season in 2023, re-assert his place as a top three player in the league, and set career high marks in several categories.I don't understand the questioning about this year. His 2021 & 2022 stats, for both passing and rushing are almost identical to one another with 2022 passing being slightly better.
He had a bad 3 game stretch in the middle of the year. In the last 7 games of the regular season he had 15 tds & 4 ints with a bad elbow injury.
Imo we need to draft 2 WRs this year, with one coming in the first 2 rounds.

Von has toxic positivity! It’s a good sign he’s practicing w/o a brace though I wouldn’t be surprised to see him start the season on PUPHis message has been consistent since about 10 days after surgery when he was on the Pat Mcafee show. Doctors told him he should be back by August and he was hoping to beat that time frame.
Apparently a 2nd ACL surgery is easier if holes that were drilled in your bone are still in good shape and can be reused. They were, per Von. He said it cuts down on recovery time and rehab can be accelerated because you don't have to wait for the bone to heal up.
He also said he didn't use a brace or crutches after the 1st few days and was walking up and down stairs in a week with a normal gait. Something that did not happen after his 1st ACL surgery.

Pretty sure I know Allen's playoff QB Rating, I'm thinking he's player C. I'd also guess Lamar is player L?

Agreed with all that AND the offense needs to move the ball more consistently.
We averaged more ypg this past season than any other year with Allen at QB, beating 2020 by 1 ypg. But in 2020 we averaged ~3 points more per game. What we need is to limit redzone turnovers.

Wellllll…..do his ligaments and cartilage know about how hard he works? Certainly there are factors the individual can control, but there are others where body parts heal at the rate they heal.
True. Buuuut, there are other factors that work in his favor. As he explained on the Pat Mcafee show this was his 2nd acl tear with that knee. There are holes you have to drill through bone when performing the surgery among other things. Because all that was still in good shape they didn't have to do it. It reduces recovery time because you don't have to wait for the bone to heal up. You can start rehab immediately and go at a quicker pace.
He said he hardly had to use crutches and a brace this time around, stopping after a few days. He went on to say he was able to go up and down stairs with a normal gait within a week without the aid of a brace or crutches. He was ahead of schedule from the start compared to a 1st time acl surgery and still is per McDermott.

Well, he may be the worst QB who has actually played. There are a lot of QB's on and off rosters, on practice squads, etc who have never played a down of football in the NFL and probably never will. They still make a living, and Peterman is probably better than a chunk of those guys.
Peterman is a good teammate and probably does a good job in the meeting room and helping to prepare the starter, so coaches and starting QB's like having him around. That's all. Nobody actually wants him to play, just like nobody ever wants their 3rd string / practice squad QB to play.
I don't disagree with anything you wrote. I even said something similar earlier in the thread.
I posted an article earlier that was written in 2018. Part of the article pointed out that it's rare to be that bad and get the amount of chances he's at. At that time he had 130 career attempts, now he has 160 and still hanging around 5 years later. He’s got to be at something off the field for sure.

The fact that people still hate on this man is astounding. Like give it a rest already!
3 minutes ago, MJS said:Seriously. Bills fans should be grateful for Peterman. He forced Josh Allen onto the field and the rest is history.
Who knows? If he was a better QB, the Bills might still be in QB purgatory because maybe they would have tried playing with him for a couple of years and not drafted Josh Allen.
And heck, I'm sure he has improved, because that's what players do when they are in the league for a long time. There's no reason to hate him.
I don't hate Peterman at all, but I still have no problem pointing out that, statistically, he's the worst QB in the last 45 years with at least 130 attempts. It's not hate, it's a fact.

‘22 was my least favorite season the last 3 years…
I can’t even watch highlights…
There were some good highlights in the first 6-7 games, but I'll agree from that point on it was pretty rough.
Outside of the playoff games in 2021, the regular season was pretty much the same. Very few highlights after game 6 or 7. Many forget just how bad they were from that point on. Take Josh for an example....in 2021 through game 7 - 17 tds, 3 ints. From that point on 19 tds, 12 ints. And that was against a much weaker schedule. It was brutal and very similar to this year, but with better play in the playoffs.

The Patriots run is one of the greatest oddities in NFL history. It took a lot of things aligning for that to happen. That is why it is talked about. Using that as a comparison ALMOST borders on being disingenuous, but I don’t think that was your intent at all. It was just an anomaly. We shouldn’t argue “he’s no Bo Jackson” either. Who is?
Will the Chiefs be the next dynasty? I doubt it. They have Mahomes, so that’s not a bad place to start, but Andy Reid is 65 and the Pats* were a 2 decade run. That’s unlikely to be seen again in the salary cap era IMO.
The injuries we suffered last year, especially on the defensive side of the ball, felt like the worst luck possible. It almost became funny at some point. Luck and injuries are two different but related things.
Also keep on mind with the Pats is even with what, many believe, is the greatest HC & QB of all-time they went a whole decade between title #3 & title #4. All their Super Bowls were in the first 4 years and the last 6 years of Tom & Bill's 20 year run together.
There was nothing in the middle. That right there shows you not only do you have to be great, but the team needs tohbe healthy, peaking at the right time and depending on the team definitely some/lots of luck.

Toney is a former 1st rounder that looked much better with the Chiefs. Moore is a 2nd rounder going into year two. Paired with Kelce and MVS that is a very solid receiving core.
Outside of Kelce & MVS the group is largely unproven. Just because a player is drafted in the 1st or 2nd round doesn't mean they will succeed or fail in the NFL.
Toney may of looked a bit better, but that's because there was no where to go but up. Including the playoffs, he played 10 games in KC and averaged 22 ypg. In the 3 playoff games he had a total of 50 yards & a td averaging 7.1 ypc.
Including the playoffs, Moore played in 19 games and averaged 14 ypg. In 3 playoff games he had a total of 17 yards and a td averaging 3.4 ypc
James had a decent year this past year, but that's probably more to due with Jones having no one to throw to. He only managed to start 4 games on a team that didn't have any WRs.
There's still time for a trade and the draft is coming up so things could change. They also have the best TE in the league, that's true, but that WR room is far from solid and a definite step down from last year.
18 minutes ago, BillsFanForever19 said:Toney had 14 receptions for 171 yards and 2 TDs for the Chiefs last season. He was used in spot duty off the bench. He and Moore could take a step forward and will be given more reps this year.
But I think they're still looking at getting a clear WR1 or WR2 to replace Smith-Schuster and Hardman. Whether that's a Round 1 or Round 2 pick or a trade. I don't think they're solely relying on Toney, Moore, and now James to completely fill that void.
Damn. Beat me to it.😂

Hint:
Compare the postseason games of those teams on the seasons that they finished 13-3 or better.
It'll come to you
Ok, I still don't get it.
2020 Packers 13-3, lost in the NFC Championship game. 2020 Bills 13-3, lost in the AFC Championship game. It's the same, except the Packers were the 1 seed playing at home, the Bills were playing on the road as the 2 seed, I don't see it. You tell me what's different.🤷♂️

The people who are complaining must be Employee of the Month every month, and their kids are class valedictorians. 😋
I get it, the playoffs have been disappointing for us, just like for every team but one. It happens to be the Chiefs this year. I takes great play and peaking at the right time, plus a fair amount of luck to finish on top. It hasn’t been our turn yet, but I like where we stand and I’m looking forward to next season with high hopes.
I agree Augie. Though the majority of the people responding are some of the worst posters on this board imo. Blah, blah, blah. It's like listening to a broken record.
Been a fan for 45 years and there have been far more lean years than not during that time. Still don't understand how anyone in their right mind thought we were winning it all with all the injuries to our top players.
Take any other playoff team's top 6 players, now have their QB injured, lose their best pass rusher, lose an All-Pro secondary player, have 2 more All-Pro secondary players playing injured and let them have their 1 remaining top player of the 6 healthy(Milano). None of those teams would've made the Super Bowl either. Not a single one.

Your point about KC being the key.
To me, a great regular season means getting the 1 seed. We have yet to do that.
The 1 seed is the AFC is massive. Not just a big deal … massive. The one recent year KC didn’t get the 1, they were the 2, with the weakest 1 seed ever in Tennessee inevitably bowing out to give KC the de facto 1 in regards to home field.
First off I get that's your opinion, you've voiced it several times now. Secondly you are mixing up the meaning of the words "great" and "the best". You don't need to be the best at something to still be considered great. That's not my opinion, it's a fact. Top 7% in anything is not considered merely good, it's considered great.

Who cares about the regular season record when the Bills were the odds on favorite to win the Super Bowl?
Welcome to top tier team status. The standards are high.
Only twice since the start of the 2009 season has the "odds on favorite" entering week 1 gone on to win the Super Bowl. Doesn't happen often, only 14% of the time.
-
Only 6 times over the last 3 seasons has a team finished 13-3 or better. Packers and Eagles each did it once, KC & Buffalo are the only 2 to do it twice. Yet there are fans on here saying that those seasons aren't great. We also have the 2nd best record over the last 3 years, only trailing KC. Yeah, top 7% isn't great lol.

Except, we’re not … All this talk about our regular season success, how good our defense is in the regular season…How many 1 seeds?
How do we think the playoffs go if our path is BYE .. Jax at home .. KC at home, with Hyde back..?
It matters.
Since when did having a great regular season guarantee a 1 seed? Did anyone say we had the best regular season? 13-3 is a great season, whether it comes with the 1 seed or not.

This is what makes sense. If they want a Christian McCaffrey type package they would be expected to eat some or much of the salary. If they don’t want to eat the salary they likely get a day 3 pick out of the deal.
fwiw they were talking about it on WGR the other day I think. Someone said the Cards previous Gm has contacted the league/Goodell with some issues with the owner and the HC this past season. Something about the Gm was suspended for 5 weeks and the owner made them all is burner phones to communicate while he was suspended. Said he still us the burner phone for evidence.
not sure what cheating was going on or anything but it was an abuse of league rules to the suspension. So you might actually see the Cards be reprimanded in some form or another. Possibly loss of a draft pick somewhere. If that happens you could see the current Gm make a play to recoup any picks that were lost by making a trade. Maybe a 3rd round or something like that. Idk. Just passing on the info I heard.
RD 3, Pick 91: LB Dorian Williams, Tulane
in The Stadium Wall
Posted · Edited by LOVEMESOMEBILLS
Greg Cosell really likes Williams. Says he plays bigger than his weight at the combine(228), where as Bernard he says, actually plays smaller than his weight. Says he's tough, physical, hard hitting LBer, with long arms to shed blockers.
Also sounded shocked that Alex Austin didn't get drafted until the 7th. He said there's no difference in Austin's play vs any DB taken in the 4th round. Some good tidbits on the draft picks and some time also spent talking about Ford's signing.
EDIT: This is the wrong video. This is the one from Friday discussing the Kincaid pick. I won't delete it, in case someone wants to watch it. See the very next post for the correct video.
