[Marcus Peters gets 3 Year, 42 Mil extension]

Pay Tre, Beane. But please do it before Jalen Ramsey signs his new contract.

 

Thank you.

[Bengals accuse Pats employee of videotaping their play calls]

Of course Belichick is still cheating.

 

Though I wouldn't put it past him that he did this to light a fire under the team. Spygate motivated the team to an undefeated season. He's willing to pay any fine for another Lombardi.

 

Having said that. He deserves the Pete Rose treatment. Enough is enough.  

[How did we lose to the Eagles?]

Something happened to this team after Cleveland. I think they realized that their biggest obstacle was themselves. This has been a different team since that game.

[“There are some creepy, crazy dudes on this defense, and we take pride in those opportunities.”’ - says Micah Hyde]

Bring back the Creep defense! No linemen in the three point stance. Everyone on D, standing and moving around.

 

I'm only half joking. It was fun to watch. I think I remember the Patriots struggling against it. 

[Watching the Giants get decimated]

I think the bills are a better team than today's score would reflect. I think we will beat the giants.

 

But I would caution against overconfidence. I hope the team doesn't feel the way some posters, here, feel.

 

We're not an nfl juggernaut... yet...

[Has anyone tried this? NFL-themed beers...]

I love a good stout...when it's cold out. Also, I don't know if stouts are good for tailgating. I can't really drink more than 3. To me it's more of a session beer. 

 

[Welp - I'm off the Josh Allen bandwagon]

Uh oh. This is the Dakota Fanning thing all over again. 

[Albright when asked where DK goes...]

I don't understand the love for Metcalf. Yes, he's an amazing athlete. But not a very good receiver. He does not fight for the ball. He needs to be wide open to make the catch. And he's not agile/fluid enough to run good routes. Too muscular. Just my opinion.

 

I choose production over combine stats.

[DE, Brian Burns Should Be the Pick]

First thing I thought of when I saw him was, "Maybin."

 

Then I watched him play. He's actually as good (in NCAA) as Maybin was hyped-up to be. But I'm still concerned about him being able to get off of NFL linemen.

[Daniel Jeremiah mock #3 (Hockenson to Bills)]

I think Hock is a great prospect...

 

But how often is a tight end a difference maker? Just my opinion, but I wouldn't take a tight end with a top 10 pick. It's a bit of a luxury pick. I want d-line help on this team. We need it.

Jordan would be better. The NBA was significantly tougher and more violent defensively in Jordan's day. He would absolutely dominate today's NBA.

 

Sanders would as well imo. His game translates. Athletically he'd be fine. Plus the difference between the 60s NFL when Brown played and the 90s NFL >> the 90s NFL and today's NFL.

 

D-linemen are bigger and faster. Linebackers can run 4.4 these days and still remain fluid. And the safeties...

 

I disagree with you. Barry would be good. Just not great these days. But damn was he fun to watch in his prime. Never knew if it would be negative 3 yards, or a 60 yard td.

 

Thanks for the conversation by the way.

Eh, I definitely don't agree with this. The generational gap with Jordan isn't anything like it is with Brown. Peak MJ would still dominate. 

 

Today's NBA is different. The players are bigger, faster without sacrificing agility. It's just a product of improved training, nutrition, etc. Jordan would still be good because, as you said, the time gap isn't too large. But I doubt he would dominate.

 

By the way, I consider Jordan to be the greatest because I compare him to his contemporaries.

 

Thanks for the comment by the way. Not being sarcastic.

[Best ever NFL running back]

I don't understand why Jim Brown loses points just because he played against smaller defenses. That was part of him being so amazing. Someone his size wasn't supposed to be that fast and athletic. You compare athletes against other athletes of their age.

 

Jordan wouldn't be Jordan playing in today's NBA. Barry wouldn't be Barry in today's NFL. That doesn't diminish their greatness. They were generational talents. Greats.

 

But in my opinion, no running back dominated his era like Jim Brown. Bo Jackson could've been... we were all robbed of his greatness. 

[DT in the 2nd?]

I love Simmons. I think he'll drop further than people think.

[Full Intelligent Breakdown of DK Metcalf]

An elite WR makes plays. Greedy ate DK's lunch.

 

Being an amazing physical specimen doesn't automatically make you a great receiver.

 

 

[Josh Allen discussed on The Rich Eisen Show | 4/19/18]

I've been skeptical of Allen all along. He wouldn't have been my choice at 7. But it's always been easy to see why so many were enamored with him. He's a physical specimen, played great at the Senior Bowl, smart kid, etc.

 

Now that he's a Buffalo Bill, I'll be cheering for him on Sundays. I can't wait to find out that I would make a horrible GM. I feel like some people secretly hope he stinks just so they can point out that they were right about Allen. I, on the other hand, want to be wrong.

Edmunds is a big boy. Wow. Makes allen look small

 

True story. Something to keep in mind when looking at this picture: Josh Allen is 6' 5".

[This made me feel better]

Prepare to be roasted my man. People on here are pretty vicious from the safety of the keyboard. But I, for one, appreciate your post.

 

While Allen isn't the QB I was hoping for, I will support him. He's a quarterback on our team, and he's yet to play a single snap. From a sports fan perspective, there is nothing yet to hate about the kid. Since people value their own opinion over reality or facts, Allen has already become a polarizing figure in Buffalo sports.

 

Me? I try to stay clear of negativity and of rose colored glasses. So I'll stay cautiously optimistic. I'll root for Josh Allen on Sundays (or whomever happens to be the starting QB).

 

Cheers brother, and go Bills.

What about eye height in relationship to the top of their head?

 

That would've eliminated Peyton Manning.

[M. Rudolph. Would he make it to 53?]

Initially, I was iffy on Rudolph. This was based on scouting reports and comments on this board (always a mistake). Now that I've had a chance to watch clips of him play, I'm liking him more and more. He hits players in stride more than some of the other top qbs in this draft. I was also impressed with his intelligence after watching his interview with Steve Mariucci.

 

Arm strength is still the question for me. His pro day should be interesting.

Having said this, I agree with most that he won't go in the first round. I also agree with the OP that I'd like us to trade down to late 1st early 2nd and take him before a teams like the Saints, Pats, Chargers get a chance.

 

Of course, if we had a shot at Rosen or Darnold, I'd prefer either of those two.

[Why is Baker Mayfield getting the least amount of buzz?]

I have been a critic of Mayfield. I don't like him as a QB. Not that I wish him a bad career. Hopefully for him, I'm wrong (unless he plays for the Pats, Fins, or Jets).

 

But what I see is a great college QB that won't translate well to the NFL. My opinion of him went up a little at first when I saw his interview with Mariucci. He seems to have football smarts. But watching him at the podium in front of the press dropped my opinion of him again.

 

Yes, he's a fighter and a competitor. But he also came off as a bit of a douche. Maybe it's just my impression, but when he told reporters that he lifted up the play of the whole team...eh. That's one of those things that you let others say about you. Not something that you say yourself. That isn't the only reason I don't want to draft him.

[This should be the Bills plan at Qb]

32 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said:

There's no question that Mayfield has really stunning passing yard and TD numbers, the "risk" with Mayfield is twofold:

1) as a spread offense guy who has never played under center, will he be able to adjust to a pro offense? and

2) as a short QB, will he be able to adjust and find his passing lanes in the NFL?

It isn't sufficient to be a spirited, competitive "gamer" in the NFL.

 

 

Couldn't agree more. I understand the love for Mayfield. He made things happen, sure. As you said, he's "spirited." But I don't think that style translates to the NFL where he'll be up against superior talent. He made a lot of fun, risky throws in college... that would've been picked off in the NFL.

 

We all want our next Jim Kelly. We want someone to believe in. I get it. But I don't think Mayfield is that guy. Just my opinion, but I have stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.
