    Super confident in Williams as far as what, they played like 4 other shmucks ahead of him last year.  The guy has talent and hopefully it all comes together for him but I think the team demonstrated a big lack of confidence in him last year.

    You tell me. This is a hypothetical scenario the OP posed.

    The definitions of these guys is literally all over the place! Samuel was a running back and is 5’ 11” at best. Gabe Davis is considered a big body WR and is listed at 6’ 2”. Their output might be similar in terms or yards, but are they at all similar in terms of their generally considered WR role? I didn’t think so. 

    You're not wrong, but you can reference the whole thread about WR roles currently on the front page. Some people in there explain I better than me.

     

    Samuel's on the shorter side, but not skinny/small. He has good hands can run any route Davis did. Davis is not a super-athletic, jump ball-catching boundary WR, anyway.

     

    Samuel can get the production Davis did, while hopefully the star rookie takes over the WR1 role by year two, if not year 1. I'm hoping the replacement for Diggs has that contested catch ability and super speed in his arsenal.

    I don't see Samuel as a Davis replacement, so I don't see that move as addressing the loss of the boundary receiver, or now Diggs.

    Unless you think Shakir can take over for Davis, I think you still need two.

    Samuel is a 700-800 yard receiver in Brady's offense and still has the speed to go deep. He's definitely a Davis replacement in my book. Now we just get an all-around star to replace Diggs. I'd prefer a bigger guy with good hands. I bet the Bills will land one of Odunze, Thomas, or Legette.

    Did you think they needed one before Diggs was traded, or were you content to take a late round receiver? Because otherwise, I think trading Diggs implies two is better than one. 

    No, it was either keep Diggs and add a guy like Samuel, or upgrade from Diggs and add a guy like Samuel.

    There are three Alpha dog receivers with elite traits in this draft. The Bills brass and everyone else knows who they are. The question is can we can get one somehow this draft because they incredibly rare- think Jamar Chase. The rest of the Wrs in this draft look much better as a complement to the  big dogs. The BIlls of course need 2 receivers this draft, I'm hoping an Alpha and one of the next tier guys. With 2 guys one rookie contracts we are ready to roll for awhile.

    Don't think they need two in this draft. They need to land one "alpha," as you put it. They already have 4 other starters catching the other passes (Kincaid, Jimbo, Samuel, Shakir....and also Knox...). If they draft another receiver late and he turns out good, that would be icing on the cake, but not a need.

    I really wish the media would do their jobs and stop rehashing the Diggs drama. It’s over and done with. 
     

    They need to focus on what really happened with Brittany. I need to know the scoop.  

    Same. 

     

    I feel like the girlfriend drama affected Josh more, anyway.

  8. I vote no. They don't need to trade up so far, but if they love a guy I won't complain. WR is a super valuable position.

     

    My point of view, there are 3 guys with similar skill sets that represent 3 different tiers of trade value:

     

    Odunze: big trade up

    Thomas: small trade up

    Legette: no trade up

     

    I'd love any of it

     

     

    And then...Coleman: small trade back...

    The Uniforms are horrid ...

    Just sayin'

    And what was the Logo on the side of the Arlington "Whatchamacallits" supposed to mean?

    Yeah, I don't understand why they changed from the original cowboy head to the current "AR" stylized logo. For my taste, the Defenders have the best unis. Traditional style and subtly creative.

    Just looked it up and....   The UFL game in St. Louis last night had a record-setting attendance of 40,317 fans at The Dome at America’s Center. This was a significant event as it set a new record for a modern spring football league game1.

    Wow, that is much higher than I expected. But St Louis really wants a football team again, I guess.

    Reuben Foster is a monster in this league. He's 30 years old and I imagine he gets one final NFL contract as a backup.
