    Also is Allen reverting to a checkdown mentality? He threw way too much to the RB's this game when he should be looking deep like he usually does seems uncharacteristic

    Just watch Teddy Bridgewater for one game and you'll never complain again about how often a QB checks down.

    Rousseau will be unblockable. Tennessee will find themselves in an early hole, and Tannehill holds onto the ball longer than most other QBs. 

    He has been sacked TWENTY times this year. We can stack the box to eliminate the run and Hughes/Groot/Basham/Addison will be feasting on their two tackles. Looking forward to another game on the revenge tour.

    1.  The Bills would probably be a better squad than the '19-'20 Bills, but still finish with a worse record than the 10-6 record the '19-'20 team had.    The Bills started the season winning.... and they just kept on winning.  It was the most enjoyable season of BIlls football in 20 years.  The Bills shined in Prime TIme and finished the season with a fantastic record of 13-3.  You have to go all the way back to the '91 season to find 13 regular season wins for this franchise.

     

     

    This was my biggest concern going into the season.  Our SoS was one of the toughest in the league and we didn't have a good track record for beating the good teams.  Other than two bad weeks, we handled business no matter the teams record (excluding the Hail Murray).  We performed at an extremely high level against some of the best defense's in the league.  When we won against the Rams and the Seahawks, I knew these weren't the Bills of old.  Teams that we would normally fold to were bested and the Bills showed the fans and the rest of the league that they could play with the best of the best.

    Maybe because the Bills been burnt in the past from players from these schools a la Reggie Ragland, Cyrus Kouandjio, Dareus???, Bo Wright, Watkins, etc

    I’d rather take Tedarrell Slaton in the later rounds to be honest. His motor went every play

    I agree with you.  Doesn't matter where you play.  If you can play then you can play.  McBeane do their due diligence when it comes to looking at guys from smaller schools.  Dareus was promising, along with Watkins but never lived up to their potential.  Hindsight is 20/20 but if you look at those drafts where we took guys from bigger schools, equal or better players were drafted later from smaller schools.  

     

    I'll never forgive our former staff for drafting Watkins over Mack.

    For some reason Beane hasn’t touched the Bama well in his previous 3 drafts, he has steered clear of OSU and Clemson players too. I’m trying to think who we have drafted since Beane has been here and what big time schools he has picked a player from. Who am I forgetting?

     

    Ray-Ray McCloud in the 6th round from Clemson and Levi Wallace as an UFA from Alabama.  Other than that, not really any players from the three powerhouses (Clemson, Alabama, Ohio State).

    As to Howard, he has one year left on his contract at $6 mil. so would have to be a trade.  He’s good for 500 yards a season, but it was believed he would take a good step this year before his injury.  You have to ask, do you want to give up a pack for that price and is he worth it. He’s good as I’ve watched for several years, but us he worth this year a draft pick.

     

    As to Gronk, he’s never leaving Brady, and he is still impactful, but how many years does he really have left?  He also costs more to bring on board.  McBeane would never do it.

    I agree, no way Gronk leaves Brady and the only reason he's still playing is because of him.  

     

    Wasn't there talk of Howard wanting to be traded last season?  I think he'd be an upgrade over any of our guys.  I agree with you, is a pick this year going to be worth what we get from him?

    In this economy?  8 would be high to me.  Gordon got 2yr 16 last year (with a higher cap), after almost 1000 yards and 10 TDs the previous year.  I'd guess maybe 6.  Either way, possibly still too rich.

    Fair point, I was just going off Spotrac for those numbers.
