    One thing you have to say about this McBeane administration is that they've created the most positive, family-like locker room in football.  And not in the "coach lets us do what we want" way, either.  It's a fantastic situation for being perpetually ahead of the game in FA acquisitions.

    So much of that is due to having a modest, unassuming superstar quarterback.

    He sets the tone and is a special person, overall.

    Ya know... Elijah Moore and Curtis Samuel were both 2nd round picks and 4.3 speed guys with Shakir as a 4.4 guy. There's plenty of speed and talent between those 3 players. I hope at some point Brady sticks Moore and Samuel on the outside and puts Coleman in the slot. This would be a great week to try that.

    Love it. Only change I would want would be Shakir in the slot and Coleman out.

    Oh, for sure. Where we've inked big contracts to the likes of Rousseau, Benford, Bernard, Shakir, Spencer Brown, and James Cook... The Lions have:

     

    Aidan Hutchinson: Signed through 2030

    Penei Sewell: Signed through 2029

    Jameson Williams: Signed through 2029

    Kerby Joseph: Signed through 2029

    Amon-Ra St. Brown: Signed through 2028

    Alim McNeill: Signed through 2028

     

    And their pipeline of upcoming Gibbs, LaPorta, Jack Campbell, Terrion Arnold, Brian Branch is better than who we have coming due.

     

    But I'll also add there are a few years of them picking in the top 10, one year at #2 overall. We've only been in the top 10 once, in 2019, picking 9th. And have been in the late-20s/30s ever since.

     

               Bills   Lions

    2019   9th     8th

    2020  22nd  3rd

    2021   30th   7th

    2022  25th   2nd

    2023  25th   12th

     

    They've had access to a completely different class of players than the Bills could ever sniff in the draft.

     

     

     

     

    Thanks, that is some great information.

    He's referring to the fact that Beane making a trade for a WR after going nuclear on Jeremy White for saying that's something we need to do would take some humility.

     

    Also that after a blowout win, he could fall back into thinking "our Offense is fine, we don't need to make a deal".

     

    And I too worry about both those things.

    Thank you... that's WTF I was talking about.😂
