  1. We have lost 4 and signed 3, so we should still get a 3rd rounder. Assuming Brown and Hunter sign we should get our 4th rounder even if we sign another guy. Saying that I think we will have a lot more signings so we probably won't get a compensatory pick.
  2. I think it is important to retain veterans like this. High character guy, good leadership skills, and he will show young guys how to be a pro. He played great last year, I thought he played even better when he was playing part time. The games where he was playing 80 snaps, was way too much for someone his age. Special team captain and rotational pass rusher. Seems like we got a pretty good value. I think he can get us 7 sacks next year.
  3. No way he lives up to that contract with Goff as QB.
  4. If they want another TE they should just draft one this year. I hope we sign a RT and a WR.
  5. You really can't ask for a better price than that. Really good deal for the Bills.
  6. I think they are targeting a QB in this draft. We should find out by the end of FA. If they bring in a back up QB we are not drafting one, if we go into the draft with two QBs on the roster they probably see their QB of the future in the draft.
  7. I love the move, Taylor is probably in the 15-20 range for starting QBs, it is not smart to let a guy like that go. I still think it is possible to make the playoffs with a guy like Tyrod under center. Saying that, I think the Bills view TT as a bridge QB (can't really ask for a better one). I still think they are targeting a QB in the draft. My guess would be Watson in round 1 or Evans in round 5.
  8. I think the Bills will likely add 2 CBs in this draft. I would guess round 2 and round 5.
  9. I think they are both much better prospects than Goff. They are probably pretty similar to Wentz imo.
  10. You really like Mahomes. I agree he is an intriguing prospect. It is silly to say he is a sure probowler though, the QB bust rate is very high. Odds are there might be one franchise guy from this draft. I would put my money on Watson because he makes very quick decisions and has great short and intermediate accuracy. Watson also has the "it" factor in big games and is a leader. Mahomes has an elite arm and can make improvisational throws that don't look possible. If he develops properly he could end up being Farve or Stafford like. He does have some very scary traits too though. He makes slow decisions on intermediate throws (not uncommon for guys with huge arms), accuracy can be inconsistent because he has horrific foot work, he drifts away from pressure rather than stepping up in the pocket, and he has never had to read a defence (Texas Tech has a very easy offence to play). He has to develop in a lot of areas to become a good NFL player, far from a sure thing.
  11. You can say that every year about the QBs. Most of them play in spread systems which means they will not be ready to start right away. Watson has a lot of elite traits, he has a chance to be as good as Mariota. Trubisky is a smart player with a solid arm. I see him becoming similar to a Tannehill. Kizer has and NFL arm, with NFL size. He shows a lot of NFL throws on tape. He is very raw, I don't know how he will turn out, but those type of guys don't usually work out. Mahommes has a phenomenal arm, his foot work is terrible, accuracy can be inconsistent, and has never read a defence in his life. The guy is a gamer though, he could be similar to Stafford if everything works out perfectly. He is not even close to being able to play this year though. That is four guys that have a chance to be a franchise QB. Doesn't matter if they are ready to play year 1, if they have a chance they are worth a round 1 pick. QBs probably have a 70% chance of becoming a bust. It will always be a risk but if you don't draft one you won't have one. A sure thing comes along about once every 5-10 years. Luck was the last one, Darnold may be the next. He is obviously going to go number 1 next year and no one is trading that pick next year. The odds of us getting the first pick are about the same as us winning the Super Bowl. I don't see that happening. The other QBs everyone is raving about are about the same level as the guys we are looking at this year. I hope Watson is there when we pick at 10, I am interested to see what Whaley does this year. If Watson isn't there I hope we trade down, I think you can get an equivalent prospect at 25. This is a very deep draft, we could use some extra picks.
  12. That is exactly how I feel. I think Watson has a chance to be special. I hope he doesn't get drafted before ten. I would be surprised if he didn't turn into a Mariota at the next level. 1st post here!!! Just moved from the BBMB.
