  1. I'd settle for some consistently competent play, less missed tackles and improved coverage skills. DPOY ? DPOY ? That would be an amazing development that I would love to see. If that happens the Bills are a top 3 defense and SB favorites.
  2. Loudon Wainwright III 'Swimming Song' https://youtu.be/ne6eS_SmccQ I only know how to post link address.
  3. I'll take talent over continuity anytime. If they have no talent I don't want them to come back.😝
  4. Wrong, neither of the giant tackles were drafted for their run blocking abilities. It is not a strong point for either of them.
  5. That ####### is still alive.
  6. 3rd and long 5 man front Hughes Basham Oliver Rousseau Obada/Addison withMilano and 5dbs. No time for downfield plays to develop. So sick of watching teams convert 3rd and longs because of soft coverage or lack of aggression. 3rd and long is when got em where you want em and go for the kill.
  7. Hughes was tied with TJ Watt for highest pass rush win rate. Bills D was 2nd in the league at that stat. The outside pass rush wasn't the main problem. The coverage scheme was soft and the inside rush was weak allowing qbs to avoid rush and hit open outlets. Tighter coverage and more push in the middle would have resulted in more sacks. I don't think the outside rush was the main problem, but they definitely needed an influx of young talent.
  8. Basham won't be spelling Star at all unless it's a passing down. He's a 280 lb end who can play 3T, he's not a NT.

  10. A trade would not surprise me at all.
  11. I suspect he will be used as an interior pass rusher on passing downs this year. He did a lot of his work from the inside in his one big season. His pass rush win rate on the inside was dominant while his win rate on the outside was average. He's not a speed rusher or pure pass rusher at this point. He wins with power, tenacity, and an instinctual nose for the ball (having octopus arms helps as well). While he works on his outside moves he can play end on early downs and then kick inside on obvious passing downs while a speed rush specialist takes over at end.
  12. Big fat tub of goo at NT? Already have that covered.
  13. Doyle is a weak run blocker, lunges and loses control. Brown has great feet for pass pro and is better run blocking on the move and at angles. His scheme fit is vertical passing game. UNI ran 40% of time. Doyle only played 150 snaps last year and 85 were passes.
  14. I agree. You said they addressed the lack of run blocking twice over(an obvious reference to the 2 draftees I assumed) I'm merely pointing out that those new guys will most likely not be helping the run game this year. The Bills run blocking was bottom of the league and I think it's mostly wishful thinking to think it will improve significantly with the same personnel. If they stay healthy and play as a unit they will improve but at some point you have to improve the talent level. I'm hoping for the best but I'm not gonna kid myself that the line got better for this year. That's been the wish every year and every year it continues to be a weakness. A lot can happen between now and September and maybe it all clicks by then. If these DEs both become good pros that alone would make this a good draft. Go Bills!
  15. How do you know they didn't listen to anyone here? You'd be surprised to find out who's on this board.😎
  16. B- Hopefully I'll think it is a lot better in a couple years. Basically every pick is a project. I'm not sure if any of them contribute much this year. The DEs will rotate in for some opportunities I'm sure, but that's about it. Actually, they did not address the run blocking issues at all. Who among the draft picks will contribute this year? Doyle's weakness is poor run blocking. Brown is also a better pass protector than run blocker. The Bills tackles were fine last year anyway and these new tackles are not for this year, they were drafted for their freaky potential down the road. The Doyle choice is the real puzzler to me. Another project tackle like the one you just took the pick before. There was good talent still available and I very highly doubt he was BPA on anyone's board at that moment. I'm not saying they made a bad choice, just puzzling. These guys are far from infallible but they definitely deserve the benefit of the doubt after what they've accomplished so far. I am cautiously optimistic. This could turn out to be an amazing draft, obviously only time will tell.
  17. David Moore G Grambling Elijah Griffin CB US Hawkins RB LOU Hoge G BYU
  18. His first pick six will be a Wildgoose chase?
  19. they say that 4.45 was slow for him and think he can run a sub 4.4, also that his game speed is as fast as his 40
  20. Avery Williams BSU is a special teams demon.
  21. Trey Smith will start for whoever picks him, health allowing. That's worth risking a 5th rndr imo
  22. Why? The interior is by far the weakest part of the o line.
