  1. Holy crap... I'm trying to say the opposite. There are soooo many good slot WRs in this draft Buffalo can afford to wait. Didn't I say that?
  2. First of all, has anyone listened to Beane and McDermott talk about Gabe Davis? They freaking love the guy. I don't think our efforts to add to WR this offseason have been/will be about replacing Gabe Davis so much as getting him back to what he does best. I think Davis is a good starting WR, just not great. But Cincinnati, Philadelphia and Miami are the exceptions, not the rule when it comes to 1-2 punches at WR. What Josh Allen really thrives with is an Elite slot WR, as we learned with Beas. What's this draft full of? Potentially good to great slot WRs. I looked at Dane Brugler's "The Beast" over at The Athletic and the VAAAASSSST majority of the top 14 WRs are slot WRs. And all 14 of those are in his top 100 And also, Brugler has 15 WRs in his top 100. From JSN to Jordan Addison to Zay Flowers to Josh Downs to A.T Perry to Tank Dell... this draft is STACKED with WRs who project to the slot. It really makes me think this might be a repeat of last year and 2020 when we knew WR was a need but we waited to draft one til the mid to late rounds. That said... I would friggin LOVE JSN on this team!
  3. DT. We need it. We're screwed after this season.
  4. See this is kinda the reason I'm wondering if Campbell will be the guy we target. McDermott was the Panthers DC when Kuechly was drafted and for his first 5 years in the league. As for the desire for Sanders because of his pass rushing ability, was Kuechly a great pass rusher? Campbell seems like more of a true old school well-rounded MLB with good run stopping and coverage ability and great instincts. Sanders sounds more raw. I just think as McDermott's 1st year calling the defense, he'd look at a Kuechly-like MLB with googly eyes. We already have our pass rushing/blitzing LB in Milano.
  5. We all know the hole to fill. Yes it's possible the Edmunds replacement is on our roster, but c'mon... who really doesn't think we're adding an ILB???? Jack Campbell has been the buzz since the Combine. Yet, The Athletic just came out with their top 100. Here's what they said about him: Campbell has excellent size to take on blocks in the box, and he’s more than willing to do so. An effective communicator pre-snap, Campbell plays with good awareness to discern play concepts and effectively play the run. He flashes the ability to stack and shed climbing offensive linemen while being a sound tackler. But he will let the game come to him at times instead of being the aggressor. He is a good athlete, but it doesn’t always show because he plays in a controlled manner — there are times you wish he used his gifts more. Campbell’s awareness does carry over against the pass. He is at his best in zone, where he can read the game, make plays on the ball and get into passing lanes. He’s also a fluid enough mover to hold his own in man. Campbell has the size and athleticism to quickly adjust to the NFL. He doesn’t always play to his testing numbers, but if he becomes more comfortable, he has the ideal traits and play style to be a three-down linebacker. I don't know about anyone else, but there were many parts of that report that absolutely screamed Buffalo. It'd be amazing if we got him in the 2nd, but wouldn't be shocked if we took him in the 1st.
  6. Pretty awesome. Love the dude. Position is set for this year. That said, our DT position is pretty screwed starting in 2024 with absolutely no one currently under contract beyond this season.
  7. I'm at the point I'm excited regardless whether we get him or not. If we get him... yay!!! If we don't... trade for Jeudy??? trade for Hunter Renfrow???? Trade up for JSN??? WR in the 1st???? It's obvious Beane is still trying to upgrade the WR room... That's exciting, isn't it?
  8. This is getting ridiculous. So much smoke. Where's the fire?
  9. Watch this turn into a fiasco similar to what's going on with Rodgers
  10. Why? This is such a doomsday perspective. We've already upgraded our OL. James Cook >>>> Devin Singletary Plus Hines and Harris get mixed in the running game. Our WR corps still has the same 2 guys at the top in Diggs and Davis. Harty is probably an upgrade over McKenzie. Shakir has a year under his belt. And Sherfield can actually play on offense. Plus we still have the draft. And Dorsey has a year's worth of experience as an OC. Your post makes zero sense.
  11. I'll get behind this if we do it (for a reasonable price), but am I the only thinking he's not ideal? He's gonna be 31 this season. So what... we get 2 possibly good years out of him and pay him a boatload of cash? And I'm sure it's been talked about, but how's Diggs handling this? I think it would work out if we got him and we'd immediately have the best WR corps in the NFL, but it just doesn't match the whole team building mantra McBeane have pushed. I'd prefer trading for Jerry Jeudy or trading up for JSN if we're trading anything away.
  12. Good signing. Sherfield was pretty good with the Phins.
  13. Can't this thread just be merged with the other Jeudy one? But yes. Clearly you do it
  14. He is. I like him. But don't pay him. Cook is better. If the market dries out and he'll come back for an AAV less than $5 mil, pay him.
  15. When Edmunds said he was going to test the market I thought more and more that Poyer would be back. And I love it! As far as the vocal/emotional/heart and soul leader of not just the defense but the entire team, Poyer is more important than Edmunds. And let's remember that he’s just 1 year removed from an All-Pro season. He hasn't been an injury prone player over his career... just last year. 23 & 21 back at it!!! Anyone know the contract details? OP could you post them on page 1?
  16. More proof Diggs isn't going anywhere
