  1. Way too much talent to tank.

     

    We had an elite defense 3 years ago and were close to being special. We still have that D Line, and shady.

     

    Tanking is severely overrated... look how good luck and the colts are. They have nothing but a QB. And suck

     

    We have pretty much everything but a QB and are close

    2 firsts, 2 seconds, 2 thirds in next years draft.

     

    They don't need to tank to get #1 overall.

     

    Finish 8-8 and grab your QB.

  2. Hey gamers, here ishow our beloved Bills are broken down in terms of individual ratings.

     

    Ratings

     

    Before everyone freaks, EA as a whole lowered ratings across the board over the last few years. Where 95+ was elite and 85+ was pretty average, now low 80's are average and 90's are elite. They really dropped pass defense and OL rating across the board while boosting the athletic ratings for QB's and really dropped the ratings of K/Ps.

     

    Outside of Woods (73?!) and Cogs RBL rating, I'd say the roster is very fair.

     

    Anyone planning on getting Madden 18? I think I'm sticking with 17 for a long while... the franchise has just been in strong downward spiral that would make Blake Bortles blush. I've always been an offline guy, and unless you're willing to spend hours in the settings/sliders menu the days of fair AI and realistic gameplay is long over.

     

     

    On a side note, I've always found adjusting the ratings week in and week out to be rather fun, and I've always enjoyed creating the rookies. If anyone who is sticking with 17 is interested, I may start uploading my rosters. I'd say the Bills are EXTREMELY updated and fair, and many of the offseason roster moves from around the NFL are updated. Some teams even have other rookies (Mostly 8-10 top prospects).

  3. According to reports he has yet to take a rep other than backup MLB. I suspect they would rather have a backup MLB that can play multiple positions like the others have been doing. Just like Cardale Jones, this kid has no ties to this regime and seems at least on paper to not fit the defense.

    I never liked the pick, but was hoping he could push P. Brown out of a job. So far the best I can hope for now is P. Brown bounces back to 2015 form.

    Thoughts?

    4 days in to his second training camp after missing a year?

     

    Seems like a rational thought.

  4. Interesting quote from our DC in article by CB on who will be the starting LB's. Always figured whoever loses at MLB will split time with Alexander at SAM.

     

    Though no one knows for sure whether Brown or Ragland will nail down the middle linebacker job, what does seem certain is both will be on the field at one of the three linebacker positions this fall. Frazier all but confirmed as much this spring.

    “You’ve got three linebackers on the field and we hope that we’ll try to mesh the right three in our 4-3 scheme and maybe that’ll be Lorenzo (Alexander) and Preston together or maybe it’ll be a different configuration,” said Frazier. “You always want to get your 11 best on the field and I believe that those guys (Brown and Ragland) will be part of our best 11.”

     

    I always felt Preston Brown was a decent LB, and seems like fans have written off how good Reggie Ragland can be in any scheme. With Hodges in the mix, this should be a fun summer.

  5. When this season is all said and done, who will be the:

     

    Team MVP:

     

    Offensive breakout star:

     

    Defensive breakout star:

     

    Special teams breakout star:

     

    Most improved:

     

    Most declined:

     

    Rookie of the year:

     

    Best 2017 Free Agent:

     

    Worst 2017 Free Agent:

     

    Bounce Back Player:

    (Guy who had a bad 2016)

     

    "You still got it":

     

    Bonus: Who sets a single season Bills record OR what Bills Season record is broken as a team?

     

     

  6. Every year we end up with someone getting released that we maybe didn't expect. I'll throw 2 names out there: Adolphus Washington and Colton Schmidt. The previous staff seemed to sour on Washington and Schmidt had a bad year. Those are 2 guys that I think are possibilities. Who ya got?

    Ready for this?

     

    Hodges Jr, he still hasn't beaten out Humber, haven't heard of him running with the first team at all.

     

    I can see one of the CB's like Wright or Charles or Corey Brown.

     

    Schmitty wouldn't be a huge shocker, we got the #1 punter in the draft.
