  1. Found a great article if you want to see just how dysfunctional the Jets organization has become: https://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/jets/ny-jamal-adams-trade-joe-douglas-contract-extension-20200724-vc6zwwpmjrepjii67hojt2t5ri-story.html Honestly, it reminds me of the past 20 years as a Bills fan before McDermott and Beane got here. If you're ever feeling like you "want a change" and don't like our front office, try to remember how different it was before they got here.
  2. For those saying that this is a stupid trade for the Seahawks... I'm shocked. Jamal Adams was drafted 6th overall and actually lived up to the hype. You're shocked that the 6th overall pick is worth two late first round picks and a third? It's a fair trade for both sides and I'm happy to see Adams gone from the division.
  3. Multiple first round picks. At minimum, he's an average QB with big upside. That's extremely valuable in the NFL. Jay Cutler was traded for Kyle Orton, two firsts, and a third.
  4. I almost created a new topic for this, but here's a similar article that recently came out on the same topic: https://www.rotoworld.com/article/nfl-player-profile/can-stefon-diggs-produce-wr1-value-buffalo Really awesome stuff in this one as well.
  5. Interesting article on Trey Adams: https://www.si.com/college/washington/football/combine-was-disaster-for-washingtons-once-coveted-offensive-tackle I remember him being highly ranked pre-combine.
  6. I'm deleting this thread. Very surprised that folks don't see the inherent nepotism here, but oh well.
  7. It's interesting how much information you're leaving out. Ask yourself this question. If you were objectively hiring one of the most coveted positions in a front office would you pick this guy? 1995-1998: A couple of intern positions with the NFL 1998-2001: Syracuse Law 2001-2006: Intellectual Property associate at mid-sized law firm 2006--2007: Attorney at mid-sized law firm in Florida 2007-2013: General counsel for tiny firm that looks at collegiate licensing 2013: BOOM: VICE PRESIDENT AND GENERAL COUNSEL OF BUFFALO BILLS - thanks Russ! I also don't think it's "low class" to go after someone based on their credentials. That's what we do on this message board all day, every day, when it comes to the players and the owners and often the front office staff of our team.
  8. Deleting this thread. Nepotism doesn't apparently bother folks.

  12. Heard his mom is a really tough lady ... you definitely don't want to mess with Mother Flucker
  13. Haha indeed. That one backfired a bit, eh? I think the coolest part of all of these grades is usually you get at LEAST one hater with a C, C-, or even F. Even the ones who hated our draft didn't hate it that much. That might be the only indication worthwhile that we probably did a decent job.
  14. One is a single twitter post, one has actual links and analysis. I'll go with mine and you can stick to the other one. Enjoy the other thread!
  15. With all the national grades in one place? Can you send a link? I don't see it anywhere.
  16. Thought it would be worthwhile to put them all in one place.

  17. He was physically capable of playing against the SEC and performing well. They said the same thing about Tom Brady and Chad Pennington. Chill out and just enjoy a solid draft.
  18. The people who are complaining are the same ones who would complain if Josh got hurt and we had no backup plan in a playoff year. Its a 5th round pick and he has lots of upside. There’s literally zero reason to dislike this pick.
  19. This could be a crazy thought, but I wouldn’t mind us going WR again in the 5th-7th. Lets stack options for Josh and hedge Davis not working out. CB/S and O-Line is fine too, but I like having options in the event of injury.
  20. 1. They don’t have the salary cap space to do this. 2. This is not how the Packers want to groom their successor. 3. It would screw over the Packers for this year. 4. The Patriots would have trade at least two first rounders to get him and I doubt the Packers would accept their 2021 and 2022 picks. That never happens.
  21. Limited athleticism.... alright, I get it now. Yes, he does not run fast in a straight line. If he did run fast in a straight line, he would be a top 10 pick, but he didn’t so we got him in the late second round. He is a great football player, though. So I’m ecstatic and still believe he can be a star. Average 40 time for a defensive end is 4.80, which is what JJ Watt and most other power rushers run. Epenesa ran a 5.04. Those extra 0.20 seconds don’t turn him from a potential star to a role player.
  22. I can’t stand this mentality. When we took Epenesa ESPN said “solid but not a star” so that’s what all the parrots are saying. The guy was a sack monster at a need position and is incredible against the run. We got a first round talent in the first and a second round talent in the third at NEED POSITIONS. Flashy “Star players” are for the Rex Ryan regime. We’re clearly building a TEAM that’s good at everything. Every player can’t be a “star” and but we have highly above average guys at nearly every position now.
  23. Moss: 5’9” 223lb MJD: 5’7” 210lb MJD is a mini Zach Moss.
  24. It’s shocking that people aren’t absolutely thrilled with this pick. First round caliber talent who had tons of production in college and fills a position of need. My guess is they wanted a “sexy” pick like WR or RB, which can easily be found in the third or fourth.
