  1. Imagine Peterman with the eagles offense. He'd only throw 2 picks a game.
  2. Jerricho Cotchery could be a possibility. Played there, coached there. Currently a WR coach at a small university so this wouldn't be a lateral move.
  3. I wasn't happy with Dorsey this year. But I've made my peace with him being the OC next year. So let's give him an NFL caliber o-line to work with, and a real WR2.
  4. I think there were multiple factors to their rookie success this year. Scouting, coaching, injuries, and lack of depth. But it is impressive that they were able to plug in their rookies and not miss a beat. Their coaches are able to adapt scheme to utilize their players. Meanwhile, our coaches keep the athletic, first round CB with ball skills on the bench because he doesn't fit the scheme.
  5. I really don't understand people questioning his attitude. He's not being a diva, he's not trying to pad his stats. We're lucky to have him. I wish we had a few more with his fight.
  6. To be fair, he wasn't plucked by Daboll and Shein until late in the season when their WR corps was decimated. But it is concerning that a team with drop problems couldn't find a place for Hodgins' sure hands.
  7. I think this is exactly right, and would be ideal. We need a real playmaking WR2. That guy isn't on the roster right now.
  8. I think he wants to be an OC one day. He was just falling down the totem pole here. I wish him the best until they play the Bills.
  9. I hear his responsibility will be to pick a play out of a hat on third and long.
  10. And he was recruited to Miami to play as a WR. He converted to DE. That's just nuts. He was always going to be a project, and it does seem like he's developing well.
  11. Agree with everything here. The slot is very mental, hopefully Beasley can mentor Shakir (who showed promise). I'd be okay with Beasley starting the season with Shakir transitioning as the season moves forward. Like you said, we need a real WR2. Hopefully a playmaker type. Gabe is a great 3 or 4. I don't see a role for dirty anymore.
  12. Considering they got away with the music city forward lateral a few years before, I think it was kind of a 🍆 move to pull this kind of special teams play. But whatever.
  13. With our cap situation and expiring contracts, we need an influx of young cheap talent. I'd love 8 or 9 picks in this draft. One of the reasons so many rookies played for the chiefs this season, besides excellent coaching, is that the team lacked depth. I think that will have to be the Bills next year.
  14. Edmunds does seem to struggle with weaving through traffic in getting to the QB. But as you said, he is great at taking away chunks of he field. His lack of splash plays is likely due to Frazier's scheme. I feel like he'd be a big play monster on the 49ers defense. While he doesn't make those big plays, he just seems to lower the overall efficiency of the opposing offense. That is incredibly valuable, as you suggest.
  15. Roseman is the best GM in the NFL. He has hit on the draft and free agency. Plus, and this is big, when his moves don't seem to be panning out, he moves on instead of stubbornly trying to make it work.
  16. This conversation has some real 2003 vibes. I'm getting terrible flashbacks of the early drought years.
  17. Mahomes has a top 3 all-time TE, a good o-line, and probably the most QB friendly offensive mind in the history of the NFL. Burrow has Chase, Higgins, Mixon, Hurst, and Boyd. Stacked offense. Rivers has 2 HOFers in Gates and Tomlinson. Allen has Diggs.
  18. He should probably hit the squat rack this off season and bulk up his lower half a bit.
  19. It seems to be a good year for interior o-line. Several good prospects expected to go in rounds 2 and 3. I'd like to use both for that and a playmaker in the 1st.
  20. This team has been winning a lot of games. Clearly, "the process" has brought playoff caliber football back to Buffalo, and for that I am grateful to McBeane. But this upcoming season is a turning point for this regime. "The process" hasn't brought championship caliber football to Buffalo. We have 3 years of getting out coached in the playoffs and seem to be getting further away from the superbowl rather than closer. Diggs reaction on the field seems to suggest that the players may be feeling the same way. He has that C on his jersey because his teammates chose him as a captain. Rumor is that he was telling Josh to not listen to the coaching and to trust what he sees. McD has shown a willingness to adapt. Frazier has not. It's too early to tell with Dorsey. But it seems that, left unchanged, the players may lose faith in "the process." McD benches players for fumbling. If he's going to keep the staff, he needs to bench his coordinators schemes a bit and get them to adapt the gameplan to their personnel.
  21. Sean "Grass on the other side" Payton.
  22. Hey, Marv. The fans wanted Haloti Ngata over Dante Whitner.
  23. I was just kidding, man. Considering some of the craziness on this board, I can see how you thought I was being serious, though.
