    So .... what’s the major difference between last year and this year that explains the precipitous defensive decline? EJ Gaines? 

     

    The defense was getting gashed last year as well. We traded out best run stuffer in dareus.. But signed a worse run stuffer to a big contract..

     

    kyle is 1 year older, lorenzo is 1 year older... we are thinner at DB... Poyer has regressed through 2 games

     

    very conservative play calling and no turnovers is a recipe for disaster

    UB will lose a lot of talent this draft. Can't blame him it he gets out while on top. But Tyree Jackson is only a junior. He could stay one more season and really optimize his draft stock. Maybe Lance stays too if Tyree does? 

     

    Either way, UB has to sign him to a fat extension, if only to get a maximum buyout when he leaves. Crowds of 20K aren't going to fund the athletic budget enough to retain top coaching. 

     

    Last night was about a perfect night for football as there is in WNY and still only 20K showed. Sad.

     

    What do you think about KJ Osborne? He really is exploding rn and is really strong. P4P one of the strongest on the team

     

    He has some good speed and hands. I might have to put him on my 2020 draft radar

    Its college. That is why you recruit. Reload

     

    they aren’t losing that many players to the draft, just 2.

     

    they have a great cast of FR, SO, JRs , coming back.

     

    and Leipold stayed at Wisconsin white water for almost a decade. He isn’t jumping ship after this year

     

    and Sadly you need to accept that Buffalo is not a college sports town,  no matter how good the Bulls get. They will need a new venue if they ever wanna get more backing or sustained continued success for years

     

    its been the same loyal 15-20k fans since the beginning

    No. That 3.3 years is for Running backs. Not all players.

    Ok and its 3.3 including UDFAs

     

    hundreds of UDFA RBs that get cut within 1 year. Most drafted RBs stick for a while And are never given their time to shine so are just relegated to the bench

     

    very few 6th round running backs are given a true load from the start of there career. They usually earn it over a couple years time 

     

    It’s not crazy Murphy is playing his best ball 4 years in

    He was a Free Agent this past offseason.

     

    Just now, Wayne Cubed said:

     

    Uh, he was a FA and signed in the legal tampering period. The Bills could have most certainly made an offer to him.

     

    I had no idea he was a FA.. I thought he was on a 2 year deal

    Fitzpatrick is going off again this week against the Super Bowl champions. At half he has 271 yards and 3 TDS and still counting! Lov it! One of my favourite Bills.

     

    Why didn’t we try ro bring him in this offseason to be the perfect mentor for Josh Allan? 

     Because he’s been under contract with the Bucs?

     

    ive always loved Fitzy. He did the most with a terrible cast

    I forgot all about Joe Thomas. It's Joe Thomas for me all the way

     

    Yea I might take Thomas by a smidge...

     

    they are probably the 2 best LTs of the last 10 years.. Tyrone Smith of Dallas is very good and still young

    That's fine. I'm just not sure where you got that I was saying he was better than Ogden or Pace because I never said that

    Re read my post.

     

    i said I quoted you because you were the first to have Peters in your top 5.. who was excellent 

     

    i said I wasn’t taking a shot at you

  9. 2 minutes ago, Buffalo03 said:

    No one said he was better than Ogden or Pace. This is a topic about the top 5 LTs of all time

    Well he isn’t top 5 .

     

    and a lot of people said Peters? Meaning does he belong.. and in my opinion he isn’t top 5

     

    This wasn’t a shot at you, I think I quoted you cus you were the first to say Peters.. who was excellent

    This one is the night before the Bills home opener. If you're in town for one, why not catch this one too? There's still plenty of tickets. We are putting together a TBD tailgate group. PM me if you want to join in.

     

    Another big test as EMU is also 2-0 and has one of the top defenses in the nation. They just upset Purdue. A must-see game.

     

    I wouldn’t say EMU has one of the top defense In the Nation but definitely the MAC

     

    No answer for the Bulls offense

    Yep, they just have better players than MAC teams.

     

    It’s funny because UB is still ranked in the bottom 2 of the MAC by ESPN recruiting the last 2 seasons 

     

    Their classes are still filled with mostly 2* and unranked players.

     

    around 3, 3*s a year

    Tony Boselli? Besides the short career. Jason Peters?

    Jason Peters had a couple seasons In PHI where he gave up 10+ sacks in a season and still pro bowled because his name

     

    Elite for most of his career? Yea

    HoF? Yea

    Better than Ogden or Jones or Pace? No

    Only his fourth year? That’s an ETERNITY for a NFL RB. According to the NFL Players Association the average career length is 3.3 years.

     

    Yes average for ALL PLAYERS combined. That includes UDFA whose average career is less than 1 full season. That skews some results 

     

    most draft picks last at least 2-3 seasons. And the RB position is loaded. Most don’t get a chance early unless they are a high round pick

     

    3rd-4th season is the breakout time for a late round RB

    It’s interesting to see that a few on here don’t realize that in Tom Brady they’re getting to watch the best player, not just best quarterback, (arguably in any sport) right now, and don’t recognize it? I realize Bills fans hate the Patriots but come on here people!!

     

    Rules have literally been put in place because of Tom Brady . To keep him safe lol 

     

    he is a known cheater and a whiner on the field who cries to officials for flags

     

    He wouldn’t have survived 5 seasons playing in Kelly’s Era.

     

    he will never be the greatest QB of all time to me. Johnny U, Montana ,  not Brady

    Is it just me or does Marcus Murphy seem a little Fred Jackson-esque here in Buffalo? 

     

    It depends what you mean by Fred jacksonesque?

     

    he hasn’t been here long enough to be a team leader or a fan favorite and he isn’t as big a back as Fred... Fred was 6’2 225

     

    but he does have a very good contact balance about him that semi resembles Fred

    That was unreal.

     

    Is he draft eligible ?

    I think he was a true freshman last year, so this is second year.  I don't recall the rules for draft eligibility, I think he's a true sophomore this year.

     

    And yes, he and Marquise "Hollywood" Brown are studs :)

     

    BOOMER SOONER!!!!!

     

    He is a true sophomore and therefore not eligible until two drafts time

    This guy has been fascinating to me this year... Mainly, how he's been in the league for so long and nobody found him, or how he's just now showing how good he is.

    This is only his fourth year in The league... Gillisleee took till his 3rd year to break out and do something 

     

    The RB position is loaded in the NFL. Tons of quality backs with not enough room on rosters
