What a surprise, an elite talent evaluator fan, dismissing Coleman,the best receiver on an undefeated team. Only 50 catches for just under 700 yds and 11 TDs in 12 games. If you watched a few of his games you’d see plenty of separation and a monster on 50/50 balls. Diggs had 27 yds, a fumble and 3 catches on 8 targets in the biggest game of the year. He was crap the last 7 games of the season. The Texans converted his deal to a one year contract, because they see him as the malcontent diva on the other side of his career. Coleman is gamer on a rookie contract. Getting Diggs out was a positive. You referenced Moss as a comp for Davis. We never used Moss correctly because Motor was Sean’s favorite. He was great with Indy and Cinci thought enough of him to let Mixon go , making him the featured back. Beane’s selections have netted us the 2nd most wins in the NFL the last 4 years. 4 division titles and arguably the best QB in football. The defense has been in the top 5 until we got decimated by injuries last season. The Chiefs could’ve been beaten last year with one or two more plays. No Milano, no White, Miller still recovering after surgery, and Diggs giving us nothing equals not beating KC. Josh still put us in position to win. We’ll be better this season.
He had two good games but then a bunch of stinkers as well. He even had the coveted 0 reception 0 target game. You should really look at the game logs.

Lots of whinny guys on this board, it’s like I’m reading fourteen year old girls whimpering about acne, any chance you whiners could stfu for a month or two, thanks in advance from the majority of Bills fans, 🤣🍸🚬
You troll a message board to...not read about the team? You could always just stick to listening to One Bills Live if you want straight homer content.

You can say that about any QB that pans out. That Brady guy was no. 1 on everyone's board, right?
Not nearly in the same way. QBs do not develop the way he developed in that department. Brady was far more polished out of college and is still considered a lucky find so late.

Are you suggesting that people destroyed Cam not Cam destroyed Cam.
He was ego that did the superman bs.
That team was built so that he had to run because the line and weapons were bad. They poured a ton of money and capital into their defense that only really shined when playing with leads. The types of beatings he took definitely shortened his window. That being said, I think JA id s much better QB, but building Carolina 2.0 isn't going to get it done. Maybe this Calvin Benjamin will pan out though.

ok bud
What franchise are you scouting for again?
This F.O has proven itself to be elite imo
How? Getting into cap trouble? Not having WR weapons? This FO hasn't proven anything yet outside of the luckiest QB pick in history. JA is the only QB who got more accurate after college and is saving their jobs.

We don’t need them that much.
Diggs is addition by subtraction, and now two rookie scale WR’s to be leaned on as heavy contributors is awesome.
He was gone in 2025 regardless, imo. Launching him now was just ripping off the bandaid.
I think he’s washed. Beane thinks he’s washed and or a cancer. Either way, SEE YA
See above.
Pure satire I hope

A *Minnesota 2nd in 2025.
Minnesota, being one of the worst teams in the league. Their QB will either be a Rookie or Sam Darnold. Terrible Defense and the Offensive Line and RB are terrible too.
Because we've never seen a team turn it around with a rookie QB

A because I think behind the scenes Diggs has been just as much of a cancer as he was in Minnesota (as I’ve said I suspected for about a year now) AND he had a sharp decline in production. A day 2 pick from a bad Minnesota team is an absolute W.
The extension gets an F-, the trade gets an A.
You realize he gave up picks they needed too right?

Christian Wade 2.0
He's much more talented than Wade as far as Rugby goes, but WR is going to be tough.
1 hour ago, GunnerBill said:It hasn't. And it may still not. But this is a different level of talent. Wade was a really good club player who wasn't international rugby standard (beyond being an excellent 7s player). This is one of the top 5 or 6 young talents in world rugby turning his back on the game at 23 to try the NFL.
If this works out I promise you he will not be the last. The world of rugby union is terrified.
As mentioned above the Eagles tackle.
But more importantly - a talent as good as LRZ has never tried it before.
He would've been one of the old guys on this last 6n squad lol, he probably made the right choice this year.

The perfect game was a dream I guess lol

“Heir apparent” is the new company line here on TBD and WGR. Stop being a sheep. Use your own God-given brain.
Anyone with eyes saw Diggs start to fall off. No plan in place will doom this team.

They have had Diggs who has been top part of the league and they added Kincaid last year. I know the narrative is that they have ignored Allen, but those two were big investments and an argument can be made that you are paying Allen to be able to elevate lesser receivers.
I am not saying that they should not draft a receiver early, only that the cupboard hasn’t been completely empty.
I'm not going to argue what he should do, just that other teams would probably be willing to spend on more than one quality option at a time. Diggs is dropping off and I don't think Kincaid will be Gronk or Kelce soon.

With the addition of Samuel and the other receiver we signed we are officially up to our eye brows in slot type receivers, we so desperately need an X / boundary / speed guy as our WR2, I sure hope we don’t go all Billsey and pretend we are all set at WR, talk about hanging Allen out to dry for yet another season…,
I hope this doesn't go the way of Rodgers where they just disrespect the position until the guy wants to leave. Luckily he isn't even a fraction of that kind of crazy.

He's an inch taller than Tyreek and ran a 4.31. He'll be fine.
Their stats aren't comparable. He ran a fast 40 which they train for, but straight line speed is very overrated in the NFL. Tyreek is a freak because of his agility.

Concerned about safeties the most, and maybe center, but if we get a legit future #1 WR in the draft and maybe a DE that can contribute, IF we stay healthy I think we can equal or better last regular season.
Don't forget what a ***** show the league was last year. There were so many starting QBs out that will be back on playoff contenders. Cinci is probably back in the mix with a better Pittsburgh and the same Ravens. Chargers will probably improve based on the coaches record of improvement and KC will still be a monster. God forbid if the Jags get it together and the south had them plus Houston. Last year was probably the best it's ever going to be.

Serious contributor doesn't mean they have to start. Buffalo rotates its DL a ton so you're probably going to expect a rookie DE and rookie DT. That's 2. Then it'll be a rookie WR. That's 3. Rookie short yardage RB to round our the trio. That's 4. Maybe a rookie Safety would be 4.
So that would be 2 starters and 3 guys who are "depth" but serious contributors.
And totally disagree this roster is guaranteed to be worse. With the Samuel signing now our WR corps is already better. And we'll still get one of those early.
Wow, Gabe got signed by the Jacksonville Jaguars.
You're right... that's a stellar organization with a long history of great decision, making he got signed by. We made a mistake letting him go
Slot wasn't the problem...

Comparing to the chiefs and 49ers the 2 SB teams, here's how I'm going to categorize as elite:
-Made 1st team/2nd all pro last year
-Top 3/4 at position. (For example, Josh and Mahomes are elite even though they didn't get voted all pros)
So for the bills I got 3 players but technically only 2 last year cause the Milano injury.
-Josh, Milano, Taron.
Chiefs: 7 players-Mahomes, Kelce, thuney, humphries, C Jones, Mcduffie, Sneed
49ers: Hufanga got hurt so technically 7 players
-Mccafery, Aiyuk, T Williams, Kittle, Bosa, Warner, Hufanga, Chardavious Ward
(I didn't include their fullback)
So in the playoffs if you factor in injuries, bills had 2 "elite" players based on the all pro selection/my opinion.
Chiefs 7
And 49ers 7 with the Hufanga injury.
While the bills have a lot of good to very good players, I really think they are missing some game breakers on this team.
What do you guys think?
I think Taron Johnson has become the most overrated player on the team. He is a very good slot corner, but he isn't a game changer. He completely forgot how to get inside leverage multiple times this season and was embarrassed by TEs. In the loss to the Patriots it didn't even look like he was trying. I'm glad he is here, but nobody is scared of a defense because their slot corner is good.

Giants seem like they’re in complete rebuild mode. Would you trade pick 28 for Dexter Lawrence? I would. Dude is a difference maker.
All offense or just mail it in. Diggs isn't young and they can't put it off anymore.

I agree he was off to a rough start when he was asked to play Hyde’s FS role alongside Poyer. The Bills used to always say Hyde and Poyer were interchangeable, and that’s true from a disguise perspective, but that’s somewhat of a misnomer from a player type perspective. Rapp and Poyer on the field together are like two Poyers out there. Assuming they don’t get anyone else to man that spot, I expect he’ll play in Poyer’s role which he’s better suited for. Not saying he’s an All-Pro and there won’t be a drop off from peak Poyer, but he played better toward the end of the season in a three safety look with Hyde in his usual FS role, Rapp in Poyer’s SS role, and dropping Poyer down to LB.
Time will ultimately tell, but I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt with DBs. They’ve earned that.
I don't think Rapp is anywhere near Poyer in terms of play. Poyer is controlled aggression and Rapp is wild. I think he has one good series but I don't have high hopes.

I like this. Rapp has one year in the system, young enough, plays physical, and came on at the end of the season. Was probably going to be the Poyer replacement last year if it wasn’t for him coming back. Trust this regime at defensive back.
I don't get what they see though, he is a total liability in coverage. He clearly leaves gaps to line up big (usually illegal) hits instead of playing the ball. Tre White and Benford are the only actual developed DBs by this regime. Green Bay has developed as many of the good DBs on the Bills as the Bills have.

This is it right here, the best businesses grow and development talent from within, probably why the Bill's have been one of the most successful teams the past five years. Just because there is one dominat team right now doesn't mean the rest are all failures. Very few teams in the NFL have been more successful recently...very few.
I worked on the R&D side of DoD contracting and this wasn't the case. At a certain level it's almost always grabbing someone from the outside or poaching competitors in a way that your CEO will have time at all the major players. Innovation and improvement usually comes from fresh perspectives and not the same staff. The fear is complacency and unfortunately I think we are right there. You don't want to end up like NE who was just void of outside influence and crashed post Brady.

I do believe this is one of McDermott's faults... to an extent.
It's great for continuity, etc .. I get that but there has to be new faces, new ideas, new concepts, new coaches that are going to challenge and move the needle for us.
It's been said on here 10000x about the definition of insanity.... and this is proving to be true. Keeping all of the same people in the building and on staff is not a recipe to 'get over the hump"
hell, I dont think our special teams coordinator lost his job and they were atrocious this year.
This part is maddening, the punter is worse, kicker was way worse, kick coverage was awful for a team that tries to force returns, and the punt coverage was very bad. The fake was poorly executed and he had to be involved in the too many men debacle.

Jim Overdorf is the cap guy and if I remember correctly Beane even admitted he isn't a cap guy when he got hired.
Jim Overdorf is maybe the most ridiculous person in franchise history. Beane talked about Whaley and the bad contracts that they had to get out from all while Jim was still there. To me it all goes back to Pegula's management hierarchy that doesn't work for the Bills or Sabres. The coach not working for the GM and the GM not controlling contracts is just a recipe for disaster.

Mario Williams is probably the most talented guy from the last 20 years with Kyle following up.
I agree, but Marcell Dareus wasn't far off. He was the best DT in football until Wrex had him in coverage.

As opposed to the San Diego Chargers East right now? They haven't won anything yet, and the 9/11 jokes weren't exactly helping.
