We beat the KC and Oakland. We want SD to win the west.

I realistically do not see Taylor being cut. On the open market you can not find Taylor production for the money. If a better Qb is brought in Fa or is selected in round 1 I believe Buffalo would be able to find a trade partner for Taylor.

A good portion of the Vetran leadership will be gone imo. I would guess have of them are gone.

If im bringing in any vet i am calling up indy and offering 2 first for Luck. He is a franchise Qb.

I dont believe Allen makes is out of the top 10. His athleticism, size and arm are off the charts. Prospects with that combination do not fall in the draft. I dont think you can bring in Cousins and trade up for a Qb the same year. To get Allen Buffalo will need to leap in front of the Broncos, and Jets at minimum.

Buffalo need to get a Qb.

Im ok with Bradford if Buffalo takes Allen or Jackson. If its Bradford over a first rd qb there would be no interest from me.

Does Cousins make Buffalo a Superbowl contender? You are paying him like he does. i think he makes us better but I wouldnt feel comfortable paying him as the highest paid player in the league. I like the talent in this draft and would rather have any of the following Rosen, Darnaold, Jackson or Allen before Cousins.

Taylor keeps the team a float. Last offseason I said the same thing. He is an above replace Qb. Not the next level of premier starter or Franchise qb. However, he is not a fringe starter or backup quality. He is solidly average. Buffalo over the past 17 years have had much worst Qb play. His contract is not terrible. They wont be able to find similar production for similar money on the open market. if they Get Cousin i think they can trade Taylor for a Defensive player or mid rd pick. If they miss out on Darnold or Rosen they have a vetran that can lead the team until Allen, Jackson or whatever Qb they pick is ready to go. If the rookie starts pushing him in camp they could pull the eagles and ship off Taylor mid camp to a team that lost there Qb or whos Qb wont be ready week 1. IE Houston or Philly.

See i put put Rudolph and Mayfield in the Locker, ponder, Gabbert category. Tannehill has been servicable to good and earn a big second contract. imo he has reached his potential and the Dolphins made the right pick. Allen and Lamar Jackson are much better prospects than those 4 guys. Their are 4 big time prospects and a few others that will get over drafted by need and the amount of old Qbs in the NFL. No, Ne, Gb, Pittsburg are all in the find the the next guy market.

By not blitzing and rushing the passer heavy he is forced to go through his progressing and find the holes in the zones. He struggles with that part of the game. i think forming a traditonal pocket around Taylor doesnt make alot of sense. Gb and Seatle almost block straight unless the edge rusher tries to go around than they get pushed behind the qb. He struggles with anticipation throws and tight windows. 3rd and long he struggles thrid and medium or less he is very good at. With Mccoy it is easy to always run on first down I thinki they should get Taylor in rythem and pass more on first and second down.

Allen and Rosen have the best arm talent. I think Jackson is a sleeper top 10 pick. Say all you want about accuracy and what not, they said the same things about Cunningham, Vick, Newton, RG3 and Watson. He is electric and I think he wins rookie of the year in 18.

Trying to prove "sources"

True Value? Maybe not but Allen will be the most impressive prospect NFL teams have seen in some time when it comes to workouts. Jackson could be the right handed more dedicated Mike Vick. To think no one will take a gamble on either of those guys is naive imo. Rudolfph and Mayfield have the longest road to travel to be a first rd pick imo. Imo with you 100% There will not be another year in some time with as many first rd talent Qbs that are there this year and Buffalo wont have the same amount of assets to make a move to get one. I think they could realistically back up the brinks truck to whatever team is considering Rosen and that team may buckle. NYG maybe go all in on one last run with Eli.

I do not believe you have to move up to 3 for Mayfield or Rudolph. Imo both will be available in the middle of the first maybe late first. Outside of Rosen or Darnold the other Qbs you would need to trade up for Allen or Jackson. Both have and can do things on the football field Mayfield and Rudolph can not. Their potential and athletic abilities will make them top 10 or even top 5 consideration. All 4 of the guys after Rosen and Darnold have their warts but Jackson and Allen strengths translate to NFL better and both have top 5 potential to justify the pick. If Allen or Jackson turn into what you think they can be than you just hit a grandslam.

Paying a QB 30 mil a year, you are saying he is good enough to win you a superbowl. I dont see that with Cousins. I think he would give us the best chance to make the Playoffs and if the Brady and Big ben retire he may get us to a Superbowl. I dont see him beating any of the guys in the NFC. There are 5 guys that really intrigue me that could come out this year. Rosen and Darnold are the cream of the crop. Rosen is best thrower of the Football and can make any throw you want with accuracy. My #1 priority would be to go after which ever one of those guys dont go #1. With the recent success of the 49ers I expect the top two teams to be both QB needy. Plan B I would first kick the tires on Andrew Luck. If he is available for trade I would roll the dice to get him. He is a better Qb than anything available. I would hope for a Drew Brees type recovery. If he is not attainable I would shift my attention to whoever I determine is the next guy below Rosen or Darnoald. I think that could be any of the following Jackson, Mayfieled, or Jackson. This is really personal preference and who do you trust more. I think of the 3 trade possibilities the 3rd option would cost the least but another Qb would need to be on the roster to remove any forced action if the guy isn't ready week 1.

True. What is not looked at is what would be the economical impact of the region if the Bills leave. Sure the State and county are not getting their money back for paying for a new stadium. They will take a loss if the franchise leave. Would you rather take a loss and have the Bills or take a loss when the Bills leave. Keeping the Bills and having a better game day experience inside the stadium for the fans would be a net gain for anyone that likes the Bills or wants the city to thrive.

I dont believe anyone is debating the economical impact a NFL stadium has. Its a fact that Buffalo would have the ability to host events with a Domed stadium that currently is not available with an open stadium, and probably more importantly a stadium that is a few decades behind in areas. For the Buffalo Bills to stay in the area a new Stadium is needed to be built or the process approved with in 5 years. With the game yesterday it would make the most sense as a business to make the last quarter of their homes games more enjoyable so they will have higher attendance totals. Improving the product on the field sure helps yes, but even if Buffalo was undefeated that game would be hard to sell out.

Hard to demote him when he will be starting with Thompson if Benjamin cant go.

Hahaha exactly.

When it happened I didnt like it. You cannot argue with the result. Mcdermott goes for and they dont make it maybe the game ends in a tie or loss.

Intersting take with the Carolina connection. I think Allen does posses the most potential and upside. Probably the least pro ready so a Vet Qb would need to be on the roster. Lamar Jackson may intrigue them with his abilities much like cam. Jackson has a cannon as well.

Yes I agree. The matchup is poor but to say they should move the franchise when they will still have double the attendance of any La home game this year is comical.

4 to 6 Qbs could be in contention to be picked in the first round this year. Darnold and Rosen are the top 2. Then its personal preference. Lamar Jackson looks like Mike Vick 2.0. 6-2 220 and will probabaly break the record for fastest combine speed for a Qb and wont be surprised if he grades out as one of the most athletic player in the draft. With the success of Watson I think Lamar Jackson is def top 10 maybe top 5. Next is Allen from Wyoming. unique guy to scout because of decline in production year over year. People that like him will point to 5 of his skill players from last years team floating around NFL rosters, and this years skill players are not that good. His frame, Arm strength and mobility will blow away anyone in a workout. There will be dicussions on who has more potential Jackson or Allen. I think Allen goes top 15 around the same place Mahomes was drafted. I expect Mayfield to dominate the TV and media over the next month. He will win the Heisman and is also making Oklahoma the odds on favorite to win the title. If he goes through both SEC defenses and beat Georgia an Alabama in stunning fashion he will shoot up the draft board. I think in interviews he will do very well and come across as fiery not cocky or immature. He will be talked about as the most accurate passer in the draft but in shorts during workouts will not impress like the others. Later part of Rd 1 i think a team who missed out on their guy take Mayfield. The propect that is the hardest to gauge imo is Randolph some sites have him as the top QB others dont have him in the top top 5. He has the size and the look of a franchise Qb does he have the arm and accuracy? If he impresses I could see him going after Allen and before Mayfield. Or he may slip to the end of rd 1 or day 3. But to say this class has diminished like years past is not true at the least.

Yes McCoy is actually making chunk plays. Taylor needs to move the chains. Its the opposite for most teams but that is this offense. Mccoy makes the big plays the passing game needs todink and dunk and pick up first downs.
