  1. I've always followed the Steelers for quite some time and consider them my 2nd team when the Bills were always out of it half way through the season and I root for them when we don't play together. Diontae Johnson had the luxury of playing with Big Ben for his first 3 seasons and by year 3 was Ben's go to WR after the AB situation. I think he would have been a big upgrade to Samuel and would have at the very least lessened the blow of losing Diggs imo. He was a model citizen with ben at QB but started getting Diggs-esque when Pickett/Trubisky/Rudolph took over as QB which is kind of understandable. Most WR's I feel have a bit of diva in them so I don't see it as a terrible thing when they blow up every now and again just not an AB type of blow up.
  2. The reality is nobody but Allen and Diggs know's the reason why this trade went down and we probably never will which is fine with me but the fact that we know Allen knew in some way that Diggs would possibly be dealt and didn't nix the trade whatsoever speaks volumes imo.
  3. I'm wondering why you would say it's tough to fathom? we would still own a 2025 2nd rounder from the Diggs trade and you're just swapping out the 60th pick for whatever pick you decide to move up for. Why do you think that's a bad move?
  4. Not everyone is going to like the WR or player the Bills select at 28 (If they dont trade up/down or for a player). I think Mitchell is going to be an excellent player in a year or so but I expect growing pains along the way along with just about every young prospect. Insert McKonkey at 28 and Legette in the trade up in the 2nd, whoever they feel can help elivate us.
  5. I would stay at 28 and draft AD Mitchell who should be there for us, in the 2nd round I'd trade pick 60 plus our 2nd (Bills) round pick in 2025 (it may take a bit more since I'm not around a draft value chart atm) and move up to take either Xavier Legette/Ladd McKonkey. We still have our 1st next year and Minnesota's 2nd next year which should be a high pick. and our WR core looks like this: AD Mitchell Curtis Samuel Khalil Shakir Ladd McKonkey or Xavier Legette Mack Hollins Justin Shorter I'd like some home grown WR prospects other than going out and not only spending draft picks but having to sign guys to WR 1 money right out of the gate. Allen made the playoffs with John Brown, Cole Beasley, Zay Jones and Duke Williams at WR so he sure as hell could do wonders with the above. It will take some time and getting used to the new guys for sure but I think it will work out great in the end.
  6. The simple answer is the Texans gave them the most compensation.
  7. From what I'm hearing and reading we didn't have a #1 in Diggs either, Just saying.
  8. Curtis Samuel is our #1 WR right now. Beane definitely has something up his sleeve wether it’s drafting back to back WR this year, trading for Higgins/Aiyuk or trading up for Harrison/Odunze/Nabors, something will get done since Beane at least up until now hasn’t done things on the fly for no reasoning.
  9. Strange, I googled Mohamed Kamara east west shrine game and the first article that popped up was "Kamara's abilities as a pass rusher were on display in the Shrine Bowl, particularly in the first half. He showed nice speed around the edge forcing opposing quarterbacks to make several uncomfortable throws throughout the game." All the articles below also state the same 1 of them being Sports Illustrated. I didn't watch the game so I can't tell you but if he had that terrible of a performance I think it would be there no?
  10. I really liked Maxx Crsoby the year came out and I might like Kamara even more, relentless just like Crosby but I think Kamara has more power. I really wish he was a bit taller and heavier but I think he could be a steal in the 4th round (as he's projected by some to be a 3rd-4th round prospect).
  11. Edge rusher Mohamed Kamara ran a 4.57-40, 30.5 sacks at Colorado State OT Patrick Paul ran a 5.10- 40, he's 6'7" 331 lbs., 2 time team captain (McDermott really loves these types), he's #76 and the 1 always mauling everyone
  12. Gone too soon, watch over our Bills young sir and rest in paradise!
  13. That was a bit before my time but that must have been awesome, what was the draft like then?
  14. The idea of the draft is to even the playing field otherwise why are fans even bothering coming to your stadium if you now can't even get the best players in the draft when you lose? For 17 years the best part of our days as Bills fans was the hope for a savior prospect in the draft to get us out of the funk that was the continued loop we were in what seemed like forever. The draft is the 1 thing to me that's not broken and shouldn't be touched in any way imo.
  15. I found some of the games last year enjoyable that I watched, I'll keep checking it out if it's entertaining. I'll be honest this past year I never believed in the whole "sports is rigged" people who said this every year but the way the Chiefs just went from being average to barely making the playoffs and then some miraculous reason nobody could cover Kelce all over again just has me believing otherwise so this may be what I need to offset my thinking for awhile.
  16. I'm not trying to be a dick when I say this nor am I trying to say I'm some highly educated individual but I have no clue if this is even english between 2 people. It's like I'm looking at Hieroglyphics and trying to decipher the meanings half the time so I end up giving up trying to figure it out.
  17. If you listen to Brandon Beanes last interview about what he looks for in the WR position, he states versatility and I believe he said that at least 3 times while talking about this WR class. I take everything with a grain of salt around this time of year but to me that screams Xavier Legette, who played inside, outside and as a returner for South Carolina. We may even be able to trade down a few slots and pick up an extra draft pick if we had a few WR rated equally. He ran a 4.39 40 time and if you look at separation, this guy just gets it imo, Steve Smith Sr. called him a better D.K. Metcalf coming out of college which I don't usually listen to many opinions on players as I use my own eyeballs but I definitely listen to him since he speaks his mind and not just the typical media fluff pieces. I usually don't lock on to 1 player on draft day for disappointment reasons but I'm really liking this prospect more and more.
  18. This is the deepest draft at WR in some time, there is no need to move up imo. Identify your guy which Beane already said would be versatile and not necessarily be an x, o or slot WR but can play him anywhere. So who are some WR in this draft who are fast, can separate and who have played both outside and inside and those are the players we should be looking at. Here is Steve Smith Sr. take on the WR class. His view of WR Xavier Leggette is interesting to me, because that was who I thought I was seeing when I watched him but to hear it from a legit boss at the position makes me like him even more imo.
  19. I don't believe it's invalid but to each their own. Regardless of the rankings he was top 10 in all accept yards.
  20. Diggs was 6th in the league in receptions, 13th in the league in yards and tied for 4th in the league in TD, I don't think it's time to panick just yet. He needs some help for sure but with Kincaid, Samuel, Cook, Knox, Shakir and hopefully a 1st round rookie it appears Diggs will finally get some much needed help.
  21. All I know, if he is as good as he's being portrayed then at least he's going to the NFC this time. There's enough competition in the AFC.
