competition at the QB position never hurt anyone

hahaha

lol, ok, some people happy hey I'm happy,

this might help keep everyone happy

Probably not even better for what McDermott needs from the position. White is at the top of the list in a very good draft class at at the CB position. A leader of men, an excellent tackler. White is hand picked by McDermott to fit his system...

thanks for saying Simon,

Having a QB that knows the system and his place on the team could really benefit Tyrod Taylor in my humble opinion.

I know T T has a long way to go before deserving to be spoken in the same breath as Steve Young, but I do see some similarites in size, skill set and my hopes are the right system and coaching will help benefit him in the same way.

You really don't know what getting twisted up like a pretzel a few times might do to a young signal callers confidence.( TE )

Good under the coaching staff that feels he's a good fit for the team and system you mean? Even if Mahomes is successful under Reid it doesn't mean the same success happens with other organizations. Failure under one organization/systems as a young QB prospect does not always mean an end of a QB's NFL career.

on the clock

McDermott has a different strategy, needs a different kind of player in some instances. So while the players themselves may not seem equal in skill set. Coaches putting players in the right position/system to succeed can make the difference IMO.

good point lol, touche

ty for the link Moose

I agree, White is the kind of young player/ leader you want to build the team around. Drop out of the 1st and its less likely a player of his value to fill a team need is still available. Deep draft, I get that, but if you see a guy available that really goes well in the grand scheme of things to come, you get him.

The way I look at it, while from a points standpoint Buffao's 1st gained in the trade gets reduced to a 2nd, next year If and when a trade occurs Buffalo's extra 1st becomes a bargaining chip most teams can't compete with without Buffalo being forced to give up anything the following year/draft. If next years draft is more lucrative / better draft class per team needs the trade becomes even more beneficial in my humble opinion.

thanks for this post Very much appreciated

Houston... ...we have a problem... ...no O J Howard... ...another CB... ...no oxygen...

thanks, If next years draft turns out to be a better draft class to meet needs say for instance at the QB position, then the points lost could become a moot point, eh wilcoam

Maybe Buffalo will be pursuing the best Defensive player in the draft? Or maybe the Browns found a QB they like, but still end up picking 1st overall?

I think he's telling us we grow CB's well

You have to figure in a really sweet trade on this pick.

I liked the trade and the pick makes sense IMO. We need a CB, extra pick now in the 3rd, an extra 1st in next years draft (which could open up the door to something special). crazy 1st round... ...enjoyed it...

McDermott needs solid play out of the CB position, I like this pick, nice trade

Foster would be nice
