  1. i get it. and i agree to a point. he was good enough to win a lot of the games we lost IF the defense/special teams/kicker/coach was better. but, there were a lot of games where i just couldn't help but think that good enough is just not good enough. and another way to look at top twenty, is tenth from the bottom. like i said, i really, really like tyrod. maybe with the right coaching in the right system, he is plenty good enough, but when the system fails...you need THE GUY.

    I agree with you completely

     

    And I don't like to talk negatively about TT because he is such a humble guy

     

    But IMO as you stated...

     

    When system crumbles or the day isnt going your way... THE GUY can put his team on his back and make players around him better

     

    I think TT is a good football player

     

    But not the answer

  2. i really like tyrod, and want him to succeed. but the inaccuracies, lack of timing, and inability to use the middle of the field really, really concern me.

     

    Im new here so im being cautious with my posts

     

    But I've lived the game my whole life being the son of a coach and I really understand the "nuances"

     

    I've grown colder on TT but I realize he is far from the sole reason we don't win consistently

     

    And he is a top 20 QB In the NFL

     

    My old man who taught me everything still is willing to give Tyrod 1 more year because he still sees promise

     

    Who am I to argue with my maker :P

  3. isn't that the guy we have and may or may not be trying to get rid of?

     

    I just want the Bills to win and don't care if we win with Donky Kong or Alexander the Great behind center

     

    But yes

     

    When we hired Dennison I thought immediately it was a sign they were going to stick with Tyrod and try to build around him

  4. With Rick Dennison taking over as offensive coordinator of the Bills , there will be a change in philosophy on the offensive side

     

    So what does that mean for our offense?

     

    Rick Dennison is a Mike Shanahan disciple.

     

    I fully expect to see a modified shannahanesque mobile WCO suited for the 21st century

     

    Meaning a bunch of zone runs, stretch runs and off tackles

     

    Masked with naked boots, playactions and waggles

     

    Throw in RB cross screen's and WR play action bubble screen's and you have a modern version of a mobile WCO suited for the Bills and ready to succeed in the NFL

     

    I'm excited to see how it plays out

  5. Any idea who are the best cbs available in free agency outside of Gilmore?

    It may be utterly irrational, but I just hate the idea of using #10 on a cb.

    Elite safety, somehow I'm okay with, but I have a feeling Hooker and Adams by both be gone.

     

    And yes, I still would prefer a qb or wr (Williams or Davis,) but I suspect we go D.

     

    716 and Blokes, have you chatted with MajorBobby about qb? He is high on Mahomes.

    I tried to talk about air raid and bad mechanics, but he thought it was mostly an air raid bias.

    I don't really know. I like Watson and he seems third choice among a lot of experts.

     

    Sorry this post is meandering all over the place.

    Top corners outside Gilmore would be AJ Bouye from Houston.. but he looks like he's gonna get a big payday

     

    Also Logan Ryan from Patriots

     

    Morris Claiborne from Dallas

     

    And Prince amukamara

     

    And I have not talked Mahomes with major Bobby or anybody on these boards yet

     

    I would say the strictest focus points should be his gimmicky offense

     

    - never taken a snap under center

     

    -Already displays atrocious footwork from the gun

     

    -has 2 DISTINCT throwing motions

     

    - turns his back on pressure a lot

     

    - throws all arm, horrible base

     

    He has a few years of learning at the NFL level atleast before he should even play

  6. He was 5'11" at the Combine. I don't think teams are legally bound to list players correctly.

    With ya blokes

     

    Bills can list him at whatever they want

     

    He was a small 5'11 180LBs at the combine with short arms

     

    Not a guy that's readily built for the boundary

  7. Bills draft plans

    Let CB walk - Draft CB

    Let Cut DE - Draft DE

    Cut - RB draft RB

    Cut QB - draft QB

    Bills drafting = forever treading water and filling self inflicted holes.

    Thats why we're the Bills!

     

    If we did the opposite we'd be the Patriots!

  8. Overall as in he doesn't get turnovers? He a great tackler/cerebral/run stopper. But he doesn't get turn overs. I would take Hooker every day of the week over Adams just for the simple fact that he has a trait that can't be taught. Ball hawking deep safeties are a LOT harder to come by than run stopping in the box safeties. And Hooker is actually the best Safety since Berry, not Adams.

    It's definitely what you want out of a player

     

    I want hooker more

     

    But i even realize he isn't as polished as Adams and that's a fact

     

    Adams is a better complete prospect while hooker has more range and ball Hawking and a higher ceiling

     

    You can find a center fielder like Jairus Byrd in the second round as well

     

    Adams ball skills are good just not elite

     

    And everything else is top notch

  9. Oh, I'm not disagreeing, just saying that wasn't the mindset even just a few years ago.

    I understood where you were going and it's crazy that GMs would let that dictate their board 5-10 years ago

     

    If you can get an all pro you grab them

     

    I hope 9 GMs ahead of us think a safety isn't worth a top selection

  10. My how times have changed! I don't remember when safeties were valued so high and a terrific CB could come after two satires in the top 10. The DB class is so deep, we may hold off, but then maybe not.

    It's very very tough to say let's take Jamal Adams over over a very good young corner in Lattimore

     

    But Adams can straight dictate games

     

    He is built perfectly and can run very well

     

    His leadership skills are off the charts as well as his field awareness

     

    He is the best all around prospect since Eric berry probably

     

    That's hard to pass up

  11. This is the deepest CB class in a long long time

     

    Our Bills have a glaring need at CB and at Safety

     

    I feel if we go the Defensive back route I think our best option if Hooker and Adams are gone is Marshon Lattimore CB out of Ohio State

     

    He is tall, long and very fast

     

    He is not afraid of any WR and lines up right under their chin

     

    He has very good hands at the LOS and can re route receivers early

     

    Fluid hips to turn and run with recievers on the 9 route yet agile enough to fluidly rotate back on the comeback

     

    He's got the perfect temperament for a #1 corner and would excel in McDermotts cover 3
