    Not as concerned about his age than at some other positions.    Not uncommon to see TE's start NFL career a little later and even have HOF careers.    Gates was 23......Kelce 24.   An important part of being a TE is learning how to keep yourself healthy.   A little maturity helps in that regard, IMO.   I think we see some very young/dumb one's enter the league and get beat up and wash out fast.   

     

    It's a swing for the fences.........he needs to become an 80-100 catch guy with some longevity for the pick to look really good.   Great tools to do that.   

     

    Also.......this pick REALLY addresses the issue of too many ball-droppers and a lack of size that seems to impact the team in poor Buffalo weather.   Hard to utlize those small catch radius 5'9" targets when it's windy, rainy/snowy and/or cold.

    But he's 23 that's 10 years older than Edmunds was when he left, after playing here for a few years

    I agree with you, thats just absolutely not true.  He wasn't even the worst running back on the team last year!!! That would probably fall to Zack Moss.

     

    Mike tolbert... 

    Frank Gore....

    Reggie Bush...

    Tashard Choice....

    Chris Ivory....

    Bryce Brown...

     

    We can do this all day. 

     

    Comparing his numbers to CJ spiller... Spiller gained more yards 3321 to 3151, but had fewer TDs 12 to 16.  Also spiller fumbled 17 times to singletarys 13.  

     

     

    Antowain Smith was pretty bad. He only had 1 good season 

    D Hopkins vs Gabe Davis

    A lot of posters here want ancient D Hopkins signed to be WR2, and spend draft capital on this stiff to replace Gabe Davis.

    D Hop was a really good WR, but he has not played more than 10 games since 2020.

    He hasn't passed 720 yards since 2020. He hasn't passed 8 TD since 2018.

    It is 2023.

     

    Last Year:

    Hopkins had 717 yards and 3 TD on 96 targets.

    Davis had 836 yards and 7 TD on 93 targets.

     

    Davis had +119 yards, +4 TDs  on 3 fewer targets, on a rookie deal.

    Many here swear Hopkins should be signed at 10+ million a year and a draft pick though.

    How does that make any sense???

     

    It doesn't.

     

    It has also become popular here to knock down Gabe Davis and blame him for the Bills offensive struggles.

     

    Nevermind the sub-par OL play, or that the slot WR position was a mess all season.

    Davis and Diggs looked better with a solid slot WR like Beasley.

     

    A lot of TSW wanted Beasley out, and you got your wish.

    How did that work out for you?

    It didn't.

     

    Beasley type slot WR are available (Berrios/ Ritchie/ draft), but don't point that out here.

    Beane missed on Crowder, so Ritchie and Berrios would suck too according to TSW.

     

    Ignore that the OC was new to the position or that the TE and RBs were forgotten for major stretches of the season.

    Forget developing Cook, or using Hines.

    Go get Ekeler and his 127 targets last year... that is the answer....

     

    Run game? What is that?, we have Allen, chuck it up where a guy looks open.

    That was often Davis downfield, as seen by yards per target.

    The catch % reflects it, but TSW won't admit it. Much like D Hopkins in his first 5 years.

     

    48/ 836/ 7 TD apparently is bad now for a WR #2.

    A lot of teams and fans would love that production from a #2 WR.

    That was top 35% WR production in the league for ALL WR.

     

    When looking at all WR with 50+ targets Davis scored top 1/3 in a lot of categories.

    But no: 52% catch rate last year = sucks.

    It was a bad stat for certain, but how many of those balls were actually catchable?

     

    TSW thinks Gabe Davis stinks. Then again I've recently seen TSW attack Tre White recently too.

     

    So replace Davis with D Hopkins huh?

    A WR that did less with more opportunities, costs more and is ancient?

    Smart team building there.

     

    Maybe we should chill out a bit as fans.

     

    Did you know Deandre Hopkins never had a catch % higher than 60% for his first 5 seasons?!

     

    Hopkins catch % was 57.1%/ 59.8%/ 57.8%/ 51.7%/ 55.2% over his first 5 seasons.

     

    Gabe Davis is 56.5%/ 55.6%/ 52.6% as a #2, but he 'stinks'.

     

    It took 4 seasons as WR #1 for Hopkins to exceed 60% catch %

    but WR don't improve their catch % per TSW.

     

    Many here think Buffalo should trade for an older version of the guy we already have, is less productive, and costs more

     

    Brilliant.

    You are aware DHop missed the 1st 6 games right?

    Is the Guard from the Eagles Isaac Seumalo still available?  

      

    Sign LB - Lavonte David 

    Trade for a Wr Judy or Hopkins I would love Hopkins but Judy makes more sense 

    Re-sign FS - Jordan Poyer 

     

    Draft

    1st. Bijan Robinson 

    2nd . Steve Avila

    If he were any good wouldn’t it make sense for the team that drafted him to retain him for such a modest contract? 

    Let's say the Cowboys have 21 FAs this year and are already over the cap. What do you do in that scenario?

    Bad thought about 2023 playoffs

    Just had a bad thought that I’d like to forget.  First, let me say that I’m the most optimistic dude about the Bills and life.  I even thought the Losman Bills could win the Super Bowl.  My bad thought is the Bills might not make the playoffs next year.  It’s happened to other great teams.  I mean we might lose Maine, Poyer, Motor, White, and now even Diggs.  Can someone please relieve my troubled mind.  

    Did I miss something aren't White and Diggs under contract?
