Think this is the source of most of my frustration It wasn't a given that we would improve at those positions through the draft but they didn't even try

It absolutely would

😂😂Hardly If they had any sense they would have dumped him after 2022

I mean they convinced Pegula to spend $3M to not have him on the team , I don't need any more proof he was a legitimate problem

Lol since when is that the standard The fact that people still carry water for this guy is a source of sincere amazement

Except Maddy Glab, of course. And Tim Graham. Oh and anybody who happens to watch the Bengals game😂😂

difference between us is that I can disagree w your assessment that they did enough at wr without calling it irrational

Deepest wr draft maybe all time is what I kept hearing 7 drafted in the first round in fact...Chiefs had to trade up to get their guy even We get one single second round wr and now we're just going to pretend they weren't really that good...to me, that is the questionable perspective

Yeah exactly We lost WRs 1&2 from an already pretty shabby unit and replaced them by trading back for one single second rounder Not going to pretend to be impressed by that

Correct amount of effort for me would have been a first round wr They clearly didn't have a first round grade on Coleman

I agree the draft wasn't going to solve everything but trading back twice to take the 8th wideout off the board has to be about as close to the bare minimum effort as possible

^^i think we'd all feel a lot better about the WRs if they were getting coached up by someone from the shanahan tree

It's an easy comparison for people myself included who don't watch much college football Obviously open to discussing why that's not the case...but that was not in the cards for the guy I initially responded to😂😂

My point was not to connect them so much as to say I don't necessarily blame the folks who are

Agree that we play them about as well as anyone except Bengals...it's a fair point Unfortunately the margins are where we needed to improve and at this point in the offseason I think they have widened unfortunately

I don't know what you mean I was saying he was involved in scouting Benjamin and drafting Coleman

Of course But not having a plan in place to address an aging malcontent wr falls on management imo

I agree w the overall point that the team could surprise (personally not seeing a deep postseason run but it could happen) but the whole 'took KC to the wire last season' narrative is a red herring imo...an objective watch of that game would see a Bills team dominated and fortunate to be within a score at the end

Very well put imo But I think it can also be looked at as 'draft that your specific FO can afford knowing they have 100%job security'

You can blame diggs for a lot of things but roster construction is not one of them

Yes that's why I said scouted

Don't you dare talk about my guy sesese like that

No it isn't, he literally told us what kind of offense he wants in 2021 verbatim: 'That has not been my message from Day 1, I can promise you that. If you were in the team meetings in training camp, you would know what style of offense I want. That identity needs to embody toughness.'

It's just not a Super Bowl caliber roster imo. It's going to almost certainly be weaker than the last couple yrs which weren't good enough either We needed top talent to overcome the kind of middling offensive philosophy we've trotted out for the entirety of Allen's career here. Instead we punted on WR by trading back and getting the 8th best guy in a loaded class...tough for me to have legitimate SB aspirations for this squad rn and going by the draft Beane/McDermott feel the same way

from GM of a team w a top QB and zero Super Bowl appearances to show for it...absolutely brutal to hear i mean i appreciate the honesty but fml have they absolutely wasted this window
