  1. 1. FA is first so you start with Cousins. Do you think he can win a superbowl in a weakening conference. If yes pay the man. If no move on to Minnesota and pick up the guy who leaves Keenum or Bridgewater. Mccarron is availbe but Cincy was willing to trade him in division in state so im more buyer beware. After that you are in straight bridge category. Bradford, Mccown, Fitz. Besides Bradford I would just retain Taylor at this point. 2. The draft. Getting Cousins is the only way you dont have to pick a QB rd1. I think it would still be on the table if you do. I would say any Qb signed that is below Keenum I think a trade is a must. No Franchise caliber Qb will be there at 21. So find out what the asking prices are. I would give up a hefty take for Rosen or Darnold. 21, 22, 55, 2019 1st rd around that maybe a little more. If they are not availbe i move to Indy. I make a play for Luck 21 and next years 3rd. 2nd if he plays over 10 games. 1st if he starts a playoff game. If no than move up for Allen less than I offered for 1 or 2 but substantial. If im unable to get Allen i stay put and go with Jackson or Rudolph. I like the top 3 qbs much more than the others. I think there is a fairly wide margin from them to Mayfield. While investigating a trade up I would also gauge the availability of Luck. If I think he is remotely available I make that move quick and first. Assess the risk and take a gamble. Gotta believe with modern medecine the odds of luck recovering are still greater than a qb drafted become great.
  2. He didnt get inflated spread numbers. No smoke screens for a third of his passes. Imo one of the biggest take aways with Allen is he has won more games at Wyoming than and Qb in a 2 year stretch since at minimum 1989. They were 2-10 before he arrived.
  3. Imo there are 2 types of Qbs. Ultra competative workaholics. Average athletic abilty but are obsessive about there preperations. Like Brady, and Brees. The other are the super athletic sevants. Just naturals. They see the feild perfect, during meetings are told you cant throw a pass here. And their answer is why? Well the window is too small. Game comes play is called and the qb makes the throw where they shouldnt and its a touchdown. Like Rodgers, Roethlisberger, Farve. Either style works but you need one of them. Its hard to find who is really the first group. Every prospect is coached up for the process now. Get a supremly talented guy and coach them up if they have the mental fortitude and confidence. As complicated and people want to make football its not that crazy. More often than not teams call the same plays each week and you can derive the coverage by the location of the saftey.
  4. Quite well actually. Showed cover 2 pre snap, post snap hyde stayed deep on the hash showing cover 2 still. Play side route combination pressumably would block poyer. Poyer played robber and jumped the route. Simple goutcha
  5. It was but arm talent was not a question. Rudulph arm is being questioned.
  6. Aaron Rodgers only red flag was playing for Tedford and Kyle Boller busted. He has similar size and arm talent. If Rudolph had that kind of arm with his size he would be the top qb.
  7. Makes sense. Hey we are going more athletic at LB. We like your leadership would you be open to putting on a few more pounds this offseason and play DE? That is a postion of weakness and wouldnt be surprised if hughea is a cap casualty. He is paid like a 10 sacks a year guy. Wjat did he get 5?
  8. Yes. I like football. I enjoy watching it at the highest level of execution. Both NFC games are incredibly well balanced matchups. The AFC games are essitally does Pitts and NE have enough left for another run or can one of the young hungry teams pull off an upset.
  9. Rumor is Kam may be forced to retire and wouldnt be surprised if Sherman is traded. They have alot personalites paid well and are getting older and less impactful.
  10. Taylor was benched because he was not very productive. My point is it is not like Peterman had to beat out Brees, Brady, or Rodgers here. The level of competency they where hoping to see out of Peterman was not a very high bar to clear. Peterman came up extremely short of that bar. Going forward he is not part of the quarterback decussion or future plans reguarding the starting spot. He had multiple oppurtunities to earn the job and he failed to do so in a way that his place on the roster will be questioned.
  11. He at no point showed that he is ready or capable of handling meaningful snaps in the NFL. I get it he is your guy, but he is making the same mistakes over, and over again. Franchise Qbs dont wet themselves repeatedly their rookie season than meracilusly become great. You got it or you dont. He doesnt got it. A completely average qb out played him by a wide margin.
  12. I agree with your assessment. Its unanimous that Buffalo needs improved Qb play. This year Buffalo has the cap flexability and draft capital to sign, trade or draft a franchise caliber QB. If Buffalo does not do 1 or 2 of the options I suggested to obtain a Franchise caliber or potential Qb I would call this offseason a complete failure.
  13. Get some speed at Wr and the group will be pretty good imo. Benjamin, jones and speed. Streeter, and Thompson if retained are fine 4 and 5.
  14. I like it. This is setting up like was Pete Carroll did in Seatle. I expect similar wholesale changes like there was last year. The young guys will be retained and the cheaper FA will be kept. The old nucleus will be changed as well. The only guys over 30 that they will want back are Wood Williams and Alexander.
  15. If Mccaron was the next guy Cincy isnt not selling him to Cleveland. Outside of Cousins, Keenum is the guy that is intriguing but is he more than Fitzpatrick? I dont think he is.
  16. I could see Hughes, Glenn, Taylor, Incognito, all gone next year. The biggest contracts on the books will all be gone. I expect gaines, Brown, and Thompson offered extensions with P brown ending up walking. Last year the team was strapped against the cap. The shedding of contracts will see the defensive front 7 seeing the most change and most money dumped into. I think they will make a competitive offer to Cousins as well.
  17. Seems like after listening to Mcdermott he is not against bringing in a new OC. i think he has a style he want to incorperate on offense by the problem offensively seemed to be play calling and that has never been Dennison's forte. Depending on who he could bring in Imo he would replace him. If a rookie Qb is most likley I think you make the change now if you have any worry about Dennison. You dont want to change Oc's on a rookie if you dont have to.
  18. Again as i stated idk why a team would trade out of taking a Qb when it appears they need one. That also has not stopped franchises in the past from doing so completely disregarding it is not accurate. Allen or Jackson I would still trade up for if Darnold or Rosen are not obtainable. Both are the most gifted prospect and neither will be there at 21. With the top guys gone the price wouldn't be as high but Indy and Cleveland imo would listen for offers. Outside of those four no other Qb in the draft has franchise caliber potential you essentially are hoping to hit the lottery that one of these other guys play much better than anyone projected them to.
  19. Idk but that does not mean they wont. Cleveland has the 4th so I think that either pick could be in play. Cleveland may like Allen the best but dont want to pick him over Darnold or Rosen so they trade 1. Or they get there Qb at 1 and pick up 3 first rounder for 4. The Giants may think that with the return of Beckham they are much closer to winning with Eli than without him and push hard to build around him. Lineman are not as high this year they pick up our picks this year and sure up their line and use our pick next year for the Qb of the future. Maybe no one trades out of the top 10 but recent history tells you otherwise. 3 first rounders will have any organizations attention add in 2 this year allows poor rosters to get 2 starters for this year.
  20. Claussen was taken much later than kiper was pushing and Mcshay called him on it from the beginning.
  21. And Rudolph is not in the conversation as being better than any of them. You also left off Allen who has the highest potential of any qb in the draft. Rudolph has a chance to be the 6th best prospect this year with, faulk and white from WK. That does not offer optimism or confidence that the position is set up for the next 10 years because we got maybe the 6th best guy at 21 or 22.
  22. No. Get a top Qb not the 5th or 6th guy.
  23. That goes to show what a competent and skilled passer can do for a team. Alabama look dead in the water and Tua came in and look like the left handed Russel Wilson.
  24. There are 4 potential Franchise Qbs. The most polished is Rosen, best attributes Darnold, best arm Allen and most athletic and productive is Jackson. Im not super picky about any of the four guys, but Buffalo needs to leave the draft with one of them. Stop being cute, stop trying to be the smartest guy in the room just go get a Qb with legitimate franchise potential. Only way would I would be ok not getting one of those guys is if Buffalo signed Cousins and they build the roster around him. i think the odds of landing Cousins are long and the price is going to be rich. Over 25 mil a year and in the neighborhood of 80% guaranteed.
  25. The team on a whole exceeded expectations from many. Off a successful year and still implementing his system I think for the most part Mcdermott's staff remains the same. If Wrs were not running open than i could see a change. After Sunday I think the issue was with Qb play. That is going to be the biggest change this off-season Imo. I think Buffalo is first going to target Cousins, than a vikings Qb, after that they will go all in for a Qb early in the draft. Outside of Cousins or Keenum or even Bridgewater the rest of Qb market would be bridge Qbs. If Buffalo doesnt get the interest from the aforementioned Qb I could see them picking up Taylors option and trading him on draft day.
