I'd make him WR4 since Tyrod likes him
I would resign hunter in a heartbeat. This is a no-brainer just like gillislee.
My dream top 4 wr'so would be:Well, now especially since we cut Easley. We desperately need bodies.
I think we take a WR at 10 or trade back.
Sammy
Robert
Corey Davis
Hunter

I'd rather keep Hunter then this guy. Not impressed at all by Lafell.
-
He's was actually a very good gunner for 2 seasons. Probably our best ST player which does earn you a roster spot. But right now it's all about dropping that cap number.Other then being one of the best ST's players in the NFL for a number of years
There ARE 3 phases to a football team
-
Starting NFL QB coming off being named to back to back pro bowls at $9m cap hit. Whaley deserves a prize.
I have to give DW props here. Amazing restructure that also allows wiggle room. In 2 yrs we can move on if TT doesn't improve. Only going to cost us a little more than 9M...that's less than Glennon...now let's start drafting QBs!

Juice probably has the Browns and 49ers in a bidding war that will end up at $6 mil per year.[/quote
I am sorry but full-backs are not worth 4 to 6 million. This is becoming like baseball where you pay a .250 infielder 10M.

How about the kid from Pitt in the 3rd?
I like Peterman but as of now we have no 4th round pick and that's as high as I'do go for him... Maybe by some miracle Mahomes drops to 3rd round? Doubtful....

46m
Howard WGR @hsimon62
Problem I have is Bills made what they think is best move "at this time". What about long term. What about being in playoffs annually?
46m
Howard WGR @hsimon62
This franchise is ooerating like it's soul purpose is to break drought and get a wild card spot. Championship vision anybody?
What I've been saying forever and he's spot on.
He's right. I like TT and think he's capable of leading the Bills to maybe 1 playoff appearance, but shouldn't the objective be long term playoffs. We should have drafted two quarterbacks this April. And if none of these quarterbacks succeeded this season it would have put us in a good position to go after Sam Darnold. Now I am afraid that none of this will happen and we will muddle thru 3 years of 6-9 wins. Basically NFL purgatory.

I hope they use bubble wrap when they fly him across the country.
The 49ers will be developing a special memory foam uniform and pads for Flash in order to protect him. Developed in Silicon Valley.
-
Obi. That is all.
Exactly. Trade down in the 1st and get Peppers and Obi.
-
Watch Zach and Zo will be gone and we'll be stuck with the weakest remaining LB, Preston. Brilliant? And I doubt Ragland will be that sideline to sideline speed guy?
-
We may finally see the yac skills of Sammy....
-
He is more than just a backup running back. He spells a star that is on the downside of his career. Less than a million dollars more isn't the difference of getting rid of a bunch of players.
Exactly. Have we all forgotten Shady's hamstring history. We have to find a way to keep Mike. Please don't make this mistake again.
-
Obi Melifonwu.....beast. A 6'4", 225lb man running a 4.40 with a 44" vertical and an 11'9" broad jump. He would be nice to have at S. Looked solid in drills too.
He'd be a perfect player to select if we could find a trade down partner. Absolutely love Obi and he's probably no longer a second-round player after this combine. He's now a mid to late first-round guy.

What don't you guys understand about a salary cap? We have 20+ mill cap room and everyone insists it's a ridiculous move by to let Gilmore go. Let me guess....you hate Whaley? We have 22+ free agents. We just cut 3 people yesterday. How do you expect we replace these 25 players if we use over half of our cap room on Gilmore?
Maybe we could've gotten a 7th rd pick for Gilmore if we franchised him. Not sure why anytime would give us a 3rd or 4th rd pick in what might be the best CB class ever for the rights to pay Gilmore 15+ a yr when they can just sign him next year or draft a cb this year while paying him 900k....and there's a chance the cb they draft isn't afraid to tackle.
Yes, it sucks to let good players leave and get nothing in return. I get it. Losing Byrd, Levotre, Searcy really ruined our team didn't it? Imagine if we had paid Byrd and Levitre the ransom they were asking for? Byrd was a multiple pro bowler and actually may have been top 5 at his position. Gilmore had never been top 5 and imo isn't worth the money he's asking for. spendijg over half of our cap room on a top 15 cb while we have to fill 25+ spots is asinine imo
The problem is a lot of these homegrown players that we drafted who end up being good but not great. Gilmore and Woods are good players but they're not great players nor do they warrant that high of a salary. And in a couple years we may have to make another difficult decision on Sammy Watkins. Will he be worth what he'll ask for? In the case of Mario Williams and Marcell Dareus we just simply blew it and overpaid. If you're going to drop 100 million dollars on an NFL football player he sure as heck better be behind Center.
Right. There's a few players every year that play beyond their experience tho. Hooker prob wont last past the Chargers.
Hooker and Adams will be long gone by 10. I love Obi and we still don't know what will happen to Aaron and Graham?

Great news. This was the right move.

The "P" word that has evaded Bills fans for so long...
You know i got into a discussion about rugby with my mother in law (who's a kiwi) and from that came a dialogue about meaningful games for your team
We lack them. Sad to say the last real game we had something to cheer about was a win over the patriots in 2011
I can't get her a fathead of male/female players for the all blacks.
But what i CAN do in two years time is get her a Watkins/McCoy/Dareus fathead that will mean something. Something that will be worthy of going on the wall.
The team is close. What they need IMO is that game changer at DE
It's really quite simple. If you want to make the playoffs you need a game-changer quarterback.

Thats odd, seeing that most thought Kizer had a big arm, but that his accuracy and footwork were awful
After watching the big 4 there are now only 3...Kizer was awful...It will come down to Mahomes, Trubisky or Watson...
-
The Bills have not had a franchise qb in over 20 yrs. The Bills have not made the playoffs in 18 consecutive years. The Bills have displayed a higher level of ineptitude longer than other franchises . How can you not be impressed?
We need to draft 2 QBs this april...maybe Mahomes, Watson or Trubisky @10 and take a Peterman or Kelly late...draft multiple guys...and I'definitely even do it if we keep TT...
-
Bills fans celebrate as the Bills secure the 1st pick in the draft.
2 days later Darnold announces he will return to USC for his junior year.
Unfortunately there's a possibility of this happening...I consider myself a huge Darnold fan and I have no doubt Sam will be a special qb for whoever gets him...it will take either an intentional or unintentional "tank" season...I want the Bills to succeed long term in the worst way...I don't think Sean would be willing to pull the trigger on a tank season and it could still backfire....if we keep TT it's all moot.
-
I think the Bills will likely add 2 CBs in this draft. I would guess round 2 and round 5.
Round 2...Adoree Jackson...keep those Trojan cb'so coming...will not miss Carp but Sanborn will be missed..
-
If you could get a brand new head coach to buy in to a tank, that would be amazing.
The reality is Sean McDermott is going to fight for every win he can get.
Now, if you are asking if "we" the fans should get a say, then I could see a tank in 2017. But let's make sure we do it right. Ending up picking 5th or 6th will be close, but not close enough.
I want a tank because I think Sam Darnold will be not only special but a long term franchise qb. But this will require us to not only have the #1 pick but pray Sam doesn't stay another yr. I'm also afraid Sean will do the complete opposite. Try to squeeze 10 wins out of a 7 win team....

Was indybillsfan but figured with a new board I'd change names
you're killing me indy....oldmanfan?... now you're making me feel old...glad you made it over here...
-
I too was impressed with Davis and Knight.Georgia State WR Robert Davis is blowing up.
19 reps
41" vertical
Fwiw, I gave Knight a draftable grade. I think he's got the potential to develop into a career backup.

Haven't seen my boy soda yet
sure taking soda and indy awhile to find this board?
through twitter, facebook, email, and any other way known to mankind,
Find Shaw, the rest will follow...
exactly...its like field of dreams...if you find shaw they will come.
We must still draft a QB

This would be an absolutely perfect scenario.
