    Based on what? This isn’t just directed at you but I’m trying to understand how TO isn’t on every list. He’s 3rd all-time in yards (ahead of Randy Moss) and TDs.

     

    Anyone that doesn’t have TO I’d love to hear the reasoning (other than he was with the Bills for 1 year and wasn’t great here).


    I had Lee Evans in my original choices and would swap him out for TO

    Coleman reminds me a lot of Anquan Boldin watching highlights...

     

    Boldin ran a 4.71 40 time...didn't have much of a problem getting open in the NFL.


    One of my favorite - was going to say non-Bills players, but he did stop here for a cup of coffee before retirement. Loved how he played the game.
     

    Just learned his son, AB Jr., is a freshman on the UB Bulls basketball team. Maybe a future WR prospect for us at 6’4” 194 lbs?

    We should have a thread on all the posting tics that drive us crazy. Me, I cringe at the use of "compliment" instead of "complement" (e.g., "Shakir compliments Coleman beautifully") and "zero chance," as in "There is zero chance this draft will help the Bills next year." 

     

    I, too, have spoken. 😀


    It’s not just on here, compliment vs complement. I see professionals, news articles, etc., get this wrong all the time. It drives me crazy. No one cares if, after Coleman makes a catch, Shakir runs up like “Nice job, buddy!”

    My favorite Bills CB of all time is Antoine Winfield, the guy was a heat seeking missle and was only 5'9", Hardy isn't of the same mold but I like what he shows in the videos and like the 3rd game in shows him playing in snow which is great to see. He should be a solid special teamer and a good backup for Taron Johnson (hopefully).

     


    Like a combination of him and Terrence McGee with those returns

    yea, well use whatever fancy numbers you want! 40 yard dash time is clearly directly related to NFL success. I mean, here, look at the top 40 yard dash time in history:

     

    John Ross (2017) — 4.22 seconds
    Henry Ruggs III (2020) — 4.27
    Marquise Goodwin (2013) — 4.27
    Tyquan Thornton (2022) — 4.28
    J.J. Nelson (2015) — 4.28
    Jacoby Ford (2010) — 4.28
    Darrius Heyward-Bey (2009) — 4.30
    Velus Jones Jr. (2022) — 4.31
    Parris Campbell (2019) — 4.31
    Andy Isabella (2019) — 4.31
    Curtis Samuel (2017) — 4.31
    Calvin Austin III (2022) — 4.32
    Will Fuller (2016) — 4.32
    Trey Palmer (2023) — 4.33
    Danny Gray (2022) — 4.33
    Mecole Hardman (2019) — 4.33
    DK Metcalf (2019) — 4.33
    Phillip Dorsett (2015) — 4.33
    Brandin Cooks (2014) — 4.33
    Mike Wallace (2009) — 4.33
    Bo Melton (2022) — 4.34
    DJ Chark (2018) — 4.34
    John Brown (2014) — 4.34
    Tavon Austin (2013) — 4.34
    Ryan Swope (2013) — 4.34

     

    Obviously, a who's who of the hall of fame. Now take a look at some guys on the lower end of the times:

     

    Jerry Rice 4.45 (4.7)
    Sterling Sharpe 4.44
    Devante Adams 4.56
    Wayne Chrebet 4.53
    Lynn Swann 4.5
    Dez Bryant 4.52
    Al Toon 4.65
    Antonio Brown 4.56
    Cooper Kupp 4.62
    Chris Carter 4.63
    Larry Fitzgerald 4.63
    Terell Owens 4.45
    Steve Largent 4.70
    Mike Evans 4.53
    Brandon Marshall 4.52
    Hinez Ward 4.55
    Brandon Lloyd 4.65
    Kennan Allen 4.7
    Chad Johnson 4.57
    DeAndre Hopkins 4.57
    Jarvis Landry 4.77
    Allen Robinson 4.6
    Laveranues Coles 4.48
    CeeDee Lamb 4.5
    Kelvin Benjamin 4.61
    Anquan Boldin 4.71
    Deebo Samuel 4.48
    Brandon Aiyuk 4.5
    Reggie Wayne 4.5
    Plaxico Burress 4.59

     

    I think everyone owes @KDIGGZ an apology before he hurts himself twisting himself into knots saying he wasn't equating 40 yard dash time to NFL success. Goalposts are very heavy and difficult to move.

     

     


    Interestingly, two of those fastest 40 guys are currently on our roster with one projected to start, one of them recently started for us, and two remain FAs today.
