  1. This team certainly looks better on paper. Now it's up to the coaches to get them to play as a team. I believe they will.

     

    Success still hinges on Josh Allen taking a big step this year. His willingness to be coaches and make changes to his game gives me hope that he'll improve. With this roster, we don't need him to be great just yet. But he becomes a genuinely "good" quarterback, this team will win a lot of games.

     

    He's not there yet, so winning the division is not a foregone conclusion. But it is a pretty decent bet.

    As long as they have Belichick, NE will continue to be be a thorn in our side. Hopefully the magic was all Brady and not the Hoodie. I guess we will find out this season.

     

    Agreed. I'm not as bullish, as many others are, about our chances to take the division.

     

    We should be in the hunt. But the pats wiil still be tough (is Dalton that much of a step down from the current Brady). And I expect the dolphins to be a lot better next year.

     

    You'll hear no sh!+ talking from me about the current state of the pats. Though I'm hoping we stomp them into the ground.

    Looks a bit Cowart-like.  Unlike most of McD’s defenders, he doesn’t get moved backwards when he tackles - the play ends there.

     

    I still think about Sam Cowart sometimes. What a damn shame his injury was. He didn't look like he would be good, he looked like he was going to be great. We'll never know.

     

    That last game against the Bucs...wow. He was a grown man playing football against a bunch of boys.

     

    Cheers to Sam Cowart.

    I'm also.... just not sold on this guy or YGM .... I feel like they're highly rated because of how weak the draft class is at this position. I don't want us to draft the best of a bad bunch, if that makes sense.

     

    Agree completely. These guys are so slow. And I'm not just talking the 40.

     

    They look slow during the game.

     

    Epenesa is crazy strong which helps him against college kids. But he moves like Godzilla and pro linemen will control him with technique and strength. 

     

    Just my opinion.

  5. I can see free agency being pretty similar to that.

     

    But I just don't see why people are high on Gross-Matos. He seems to play slow. And he gets sacks when the lineman misses a block.

     

    Just my opinion. But that's what I saw of Matos. I would hate the pick... Until he proved me wrong.

    This is an interesting situation because it could, potentially, really shine a light on the misuse of the franchise tag. I don’t remember many situations where guys have straight up said “I don’t want to be here, and I’m not signing” only to have the team slap the tag on them anyways. The tag was meant to be a bridge to a long term deal, but that’s clearly not the case here. 

     

    I seem to remember reading that the new CBA includes changes to the tagging system to make it more player friendly.

    I'm a big fan of Mimms, and Badazz.  Mimms caught my eye a few weeks back. Like the majority of us, I was doing some armchair GM/YouTube scouting, and besides the consensus top 2 (lamb,Jeudy), the 2 that popped off the screen for me was Mimms, and Ruggs. I also like Jefferson. I like Mimms, because we can potentially draft a top OT, or DE with or 1st pick, and get someone like Mimms or Jefferson in the 2nd.  Mimms just looks like a specimen. He's not just big, or fast, he's both, and can also play the position.

     

    Agree completely. Ruggs and Mims are my 2 favorite wrs. I think they're the 2 best fits for the Bills. 

     

    Despite his size, Ruggs had a great catch radius. This is what Allen, who struggles with accuracy at times, needs. Mims has jump ball skills and also makes tough catches. We all saw how Allen tried getting Duke the ball. Mims is what we all wish Duke could be.

    I know they're both slot receivers, but Cobb is more versatile and more reliable. He can run deep routes out of the slot, carry the ball on a sweep, and he gets good YAC on short passes.

     

    I agree with you. But I was referring to Beasley apparently being pissed when the cowboys signed Cobb instead of extending him.

    Just leaving this here
     

     

     

    Ruggs is the guy I want. Aside from his 40 time which will be around 4.3, he just plays at a different speed than everyone else. He's a playmaker. 

     

    If not Ruggs, I hope we get Denzel Mims in the 2nd. Great size and jump ball ability. 

     

    With Josh Allen's accuracy, we need guys who can make tough catches. Guys who are "open even when they're covered." Ruggs and Mims are those guys.

    Out of that group, I'd like to see Randall Cobb in a Bills uniform. Sounds like he could be a cap casualty in Dallas, and we've got lots of space. BR predicts he goes to New Orleans, but with their QB situation in limbo, Buffalo sounds like a better destination for him.

     

     

     

    I'm sure he'd get over it, but I don't think Beasley would like this signing very much.

    I'm in the camp of draft a QB every year. I'd be fine with a low round project. It's an extreme long shot but maybe you find a guy that has some trade value down the road 

     

    Agreed. It's the most important position in professional sports. You draft one every year until you find one... then the year after you find one, you draft a potential replacement.
