  1. Same reason Buffalo got a 4th for Ragland, a 6th for Daures. New regime getting rid of top picks from the previous regime that so far haven't materialized. Never a bad idea taking flyers on first rounders still on their rookie deal. Injuries and poor qb play. At worst he is what Goodwin was, at best he could be Brandin Cooks. When Allen eventually takes over they now have a guy who can run under Allen's moonshots.
  2. We will know more Thursday night. Imo the fix is in. It's being set up for Allen. He is basically getting all the reps with the guys he will play with Thursday. Similar defense that he faces daily. Second half single high safety man or zone not much blitzing. I expect Allen to have the best stat sheet and highlights. That happens he splits first team reps next week.
  3. Coleman has barrels of potential. Since drafted has played with 6 QBs and battled injuries for 2 years. Perfect buy low scenario. Give him a few weeks of learning the playbook before getting him on the field. He has the ability to be Brandin Cooks for us. Benjamin, Coleman, Kerley, Jones is not a bad Wr Corp.
  4. Adds a dimension missing from the offense. Buffalo needed a deep threat. Allen and Coleman could be a great combo.
  5. Flip Lawson for a wr. Coleman or treadwell. Both have under performed based on draft position. Both are the third or fourth options on their teams.
  6. Then why is Peterman getting 1 rep ?
  7. Only a matter of time. At this rate Allen gets the first go in preseason 1 and it is a wrap.
  8. He has the most talent and the team invested the most in him. If he can do some of the other things they expect out of McCarron or Peterman he wins.
  9. McCarron was the least impressive Qb in the spring. Peterman was dumpster fire as rookie. He ultimately threw the season ending Int the last time he played. This is even money. Vegas probably would have Allen as the favorite.
  10. Until he proves it on field he will always have detractors. Time will tell. Basically, you have the analytic marvel with Mayfiled and the prototype Qb prospect in Allen. We shall she how this plays out. Right now he has said and done all the right things in Buffalo. Personally, I think and hope Allen becomes the starter in camp and he never looks back.
  11. I disagree. Bell in FA gets 3 years 50 all guaranteed. Zeke will get more than Gurley. RBs will be the first position at the top to take 1 or 2 years less for more guaranteed money. Gurley's deal is pretty much 3 years 45 mil.
  12. Imo Allen is the starter week 1 or becomes it before the end of week 2. Allen is doing all the small stuff while also having the most talent. When he is out working the other guys what's the point of not playing the more talented guy? Run game, defense, 2 or 3 big pass plays a game is a decent formula to win.
  13. Has good size and speed. I think at best he starts at Sam and is the other nickel linebacker. At worst he is the 4th linebaker and spells for all three starters. Overall good pick up. Alexander at this point needs to be a situational player and this allows that.
  14. They are dead legged. Murray was ran into the ground and one of the reasons Murlarkley was not retained. I would trade for a teams second back. David Johnson Cle, Tevin Coleman Atl. Would take a mid rd pick but worth it to me.
  15. Exec's that have survived cut the cord quickly. With the capital invested that is not an option. Beane and a lesser extent McDermott are both liable. If Allen busts and Taylor leads Cleveland to the playoffs they never hold the same positions in the NFL again.
  16. To be worst I feel high expectations needed to be had. Todd Collins was god awful and suppose replacement for Kelly. Troup because only the 2000's Bill's could pass on drafting local boy Rob Gronkoski. He played like a rookie 7th rd pick. When late rd picks play as rookies they are what they are IMO.
  17. Seems like they broke up he wants her out of his house. Got lawyers involved and a day before a court hearing this surfaced ?. With what happened in Philly a few years back McCoy will get a game or 2. Regaurdless of facts. I would talk to Cleveland about Duke Johnson or look into finding an all purpose back as insurance. I don't really believe the allegations because of the circumstances but in today's NFL guilty until proven more guilty.
  18. Rosen vs Allen. Do you want ceiling of Farve or ceiling of Ryan. Ones a hall of fame super MVP the other remains to be seen. Give me Farve all day every day. Good defense and a few big plays wins games and early.
  19. He is incredibly talented. Comes down to what kind of kid he is. Poor academics are one thing. Is there any other off the field things? Can learn an NFL defensive scheme? For a 3rd with Buffalo holding 2 4ths I think it's a reasonable gamble. I expect multiple teams put in picks for him, comes down to rd and positioning.
  20. Yes. Ironically, he is a browns fan. Most of my family are Bill's fan. The first game I went to was Buffalo vs Denver. Elway vs Kelly.
  21. A tie goes to Allen. He routinely puts balls, and makes throws the other QBs on the roster can't. I don't see where his negatives out way his positives. Unlike Mike with Edmund's, Allen has to work for the job, show he is one of the guys, and become the unquestioned leader. After TC comes to a close everyone will agree Allen gives the 2018 Buffalo Bill's the best shot at winning games. He doesnt need to be Aaron Rodgers. Young Big Ben with this running game and D Buffalo could surprise a lot of people.
  22. McCarron or Peterman needed Allen to shrink under the pressure of playing with the first team. From everything being reported that has not happened. A tie goes to Allen. So far McCarron or Peterman have not run away with it. Some mock my prediction of Allen being named before game 2 of the preseason. So far nothing has shown me that wont happen.
  23. Still stick with my first guess. Before preseason game 2 Allen is officially named the starter.
  24. They don't make them like Edmund's. 6-5 250 Mikes that run like dear are unicorns. He could become a generational player. You go with the freaky athlete and teach him how to be great.
