Well he improved both drastically at the senior bowl. Lets hope that continues. Bottom line is if Dabol is a good OC he will find a way to develop Allen. He has the best skill set of any QB to come out of the NFL draft, he is very raw though.
Daboll's coaching ability is the elephant in the room people aren't talking much about. Allen is USDA Grade A QB material.. but what will Daboll do with that?
I'm completely onboard with the Allen pick. However, the Daboll signing has me underwhelmed.

WGR went downhill after Stan Roberts left.

LOL. I don't think you read Promo's post correctly, then...
I do believe you are correct, bad reading on my part.
Forgive me. I've been on a bender, the first round was just to much to take.

Fan forums are predictable, maybe especially TSW.
No matter who was chosen, and/or what was given up Thursday night -- people are gonna B word.
BTW: McBeane cares. assertions otherwise are silly trolling.

"Yeah baby, you're not looking for trust. You're looking for faith."
That's what Al Davis told me, then he passed the dutchie on the right hand side.

3 of the last 4, at home. That's unusual. Usually the home games are stacked up during good weather.
Home in the snow should be a competitive edge.

I guess I'll have to upgrade my phone. Good bye Jitterbug flip phone.

In the winter. With snow.
Snow game in Lambeau, doesn't get much more 'NFL classic' than that.

I said this in the other press conference thread, but IMO his answer didn't fit the whole story that Richie retired due to medical reasons.
I definitely think there is more going on there.
Bills will only consider medical reasons as something diagnosed by the team Doctor, not Richie's personal Doctor.
Richie's twitter, and lack of official Bills response, implies Richie is acting on freelance medical opinion, that is of no official concern to the Bills.
Lolz. Next we'll hear Richie is on Brady's TB12.

If we are sitting here Friday AM, April 27th with #12 as our first pick--you won't find me posting rage and anger. I'll be fine with it.
I have faith in Beane.

No drama here. He's just doing step 5 of AA.
5. Admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.

... That's why I'm putting together this list of the Top 5 Polarizing Figures in Buffalo Bills history. ...

Bad professor. Changing the original assignment after it was assigned.

I'm guessing that your list is influenced by your youth which means there are Bills that you know little about. My five in no particular order and maybe it should be 10.
Jim Kelly. Today he is revered but when he came in 1986 many thought he was haughty among other things. Too good for the local folk. Then there was the bickering Bills of which many thought the blame laid with Jim and a fair amount of it was resentment that Jim was doing well and quite a few were not.
Fred Smerlas. In order to even play the game you have to have a high degree of bravado and determination. Associated with that often is being opinionated and Fred never lacked for an opinion. It was put out years ago that Fred talked his way off the team after having increasing hostility emerge from players such as Chris Burkett. Love him or hate him Fred was a leader and if he were on the SB 25 team the outcome may have been different.
Ralph C Wilson.
Lou Saban. His AFL Championship teams created a permanent loyalty from WNY and his exit during the mid 1970's placed a spotlight on one of Ralph's least desirable qualities in being a team owner.
Cookie Glichrist. Outspoken and simply out there. The team's earliest encounter with a free spirit who barely functioned in terms of team protocols.
You picked 4 that I would have (I don't remember allot of polarization over Smerlas)
Haughty Jim Kelly spurned the cold weather city of Buffalo for the Houston gamblers. Luckily for all of us, he developed into the great he is today.
Ralph was cheap. At some point he reached an epiphany and realized he couldn't run the club like a Triple-A team that he initially thought he had.
Cookie, well is Cookie. I think Marshawn Lynch and Cookie are related.

When I was a toddler we had a life size statue of St Jude with glass eyes in the attic. My grandfather had got it from a church somewhere and we were storing it. I don't know what they did with that thing after a while, but I was very glad when it was gone because I was absolutely terrified of it. Just knowing it was up there freaked me out.
...
TLDR, but did see St. Jude.
The patron saint of the desperate cases and lost causes --- perfect for the Bills. Bring that statue tailgating.

Agree with OP's concept.
The Jet's imbalanced their roster investment to fill one position.
Converse approach: I think the Bills can get a serviceable future QB at pick 12, and fill the rest of their skilled roster needs with remaining draft picks.
Also, next year the Bills are out of contractual hell with regard to the salary cap. That will bring in 2019 free agents.
It's a good time to be a Bills fan.

It's all in the W-L columns.
I'd tolerate a Rex blowhard who wins.
If you're a losing blowhard, you're sleeping with the fishes.
That's pretty much how it ended up. It's not complicated.

I was about to say something similar. Why pour millions into a dump you're ready to move out of?
Maybe they plan on staying in the "dump"

NEW ENGLAND- Tom Brady
BUFFALO - AJ McCarron
MIAMI- Ryan Tannehill
NY JETS - -Josh Rosen
I think McCarron is going to be a pleasant surprise.
- he was suppressed in the depth chart by a very good Dalton
- being virtually ignored ignored in free agency upset him; he has something to prove
- even though he hasn't been the starter often; he's been immersed in the NFL for years
- I like what I hear of his college years (there's an excellent tbd post on this, I couldn't find it)
- he's working hard already to beat whatever rookie may be drafted
-
Any of these flights, including Arizona may have been other Pegula business, ie: energy, country music, hockey etc.

Midget with an attitude, Mayfield, drops in draft status and is picked up by the Bills at #12.
-
Just for kicks, ranked by discussion intensity on The Stadium Wall.
Searched on last name only, post created in the last month. The search function is not for analytics, so YMMV.
- Josh Rosen 3189 posts
- Lamar Jackson 2405
- Josh Allen 2369
- Baker Mayfield 2284
- Sam Darnold 1897
- Mason Rudolph 1133
I'm surprised Darnold's post count is so low.

Shove off Star Boy. The process can't account for other teams recklessly mortgaging their future for this years high pick.

As I stewed in misery and irritation today, it has now become apparent that yesterday's press conference was Beane knowing he wasn't going to make the trade to 3 with the Colts. It is very apparent now. I tip my hat to the posters yesterday and today who caught on to this. I really don't even believe that we will be trying to trade into the top 5, I am almost certain that we are looking at the next tier of QBs and are mostly done trading.
Don't stew too long. McCarron is going to be the next Joe Montana, surrounded by a boatload of talent we pick in this draft.
I say that almost with confidence. The only off-season move that has me concerned: the Daboll hire.

Interesting. She looks like she has another 20 years left in her. Maybe the Saints are OK.
Kim Pegula looks like she has another 40 or 50 in her.. good news for the Bills.

Ugh. The tag system is being misused.
"says patriots were taking him 2nd" is not what tags were meant for.
Tags should be players names. Or things like QB, DE, OLB etc.
