I think you can apply this to every position not named Qb and Saftey. At Rb Duke Johnson is a better athlete than Yeldon and more productive than Brieda. James Cook is the best athlete since Shady in 17. Crowder, Shakir and Austin are more explosive athletes than Beasley and Sanders at this point in their careers. Oj Howard at Te the most athletic Te in 20 years not named Knox. The Ol has been discussed. The defense is the same. The Dline is mosr debatable but still feel like it is the case. Miller, Jones, Settle, Phillips and Lawson are all day 1 or 2 picks. At LB Benard and Proctor are in the Milano mold. Converted safties, smallish with range. Elam is obvious and I feel like Bedford will prove to be. I think its obvious what Beane and Mcdermott thought the flaws of the roster were. Speed outside on defense. Speed underneath to give Allen more layups, and take advantage of light boxes. Losing Klien and knowing Smith would be suspended it makes the Bernard and Proctor pick make complete sense. Call me crazy, I felt and feel like Buffalo was 13 seconds away from winning the Superbowl. They beat Cincy in Orchard Park. Allen carries the boys home for the Lombardi vs LAR. This team today in June is better than that team.

Jones doesnt have enough around him to put up the numbers needed to be a MVP. There is talk about Allen having struggles without Daboll. Look at Buffalo new offensive coaches and compare them to New England. They have career special teams coaches and career Defensive coaches replacing Mcdaniels. Mcdaniels is a top 3 offensive coach. Not having him was going to affect Jones. Not replacing him will ruin Jones imo.

Tua a is passenger. Imo Tua can play on a winning team and be a tough out for Buffalo. Tua wont beat Buffalo. The Dolphins will be the Bills. Buffalo has an ace up its sleeve every week. Josh Allen can just be the best player on the field and unless you have a guy to match your losing. They may not keep him because he wont meet the expectations of being drafted ahead of Herbert. Overall, during the drought years Tua would have been better than just about all of the guys between Kelly and Allen.

Sure, thats why the totality of the numbers makes it more likely he had a pattern of bad behavior than a few gold diggers looking for paydays. Sure out of 24 are a few throwing their name in the hat? Maybe? All 24 are? Not likley. He needs to settle and move along with his life. His crusade will cost him his career imo. The snippets of his testimony make him come off pretty bad.

Hard to assume 24 different people with the only connection is the same profession and use social media are on lying. Did he rape anyone? Probably not. Was he being a dirtbag in most of these situation? Probably so.

He is the best defender in the league. Has been for about 5 years. He is paid as a top DT but he is something like the 20th highest paid defender. Too good and too valuable not to get a pay increase.

Going to the Miami game. Gonna have to work for Baltimore. First 1 pm Sunday start for me at my house Oct. 9th. Wild times.

He is Ed Olivers size but with an 8 pack 😂😂. Different species than most humans.

I think Cook will be a weapon in the passing game and surprise many in the run game. In a less than dynamic offense vs good defenses he was a difference maker. In an offense that provides plenty of space underneath, Cook will produce big. Is he going to be a traditional back? No. Reggie Bush in NO Superbowl season comes to mind. True, but ok they blitz. Is he one on with who? If he beats him bye bye. Allen has shown the ability to make the first guy look stupid. Now you have a guy underneath who can take an easy pass 50 plus.

Nicknames dont change. He is, was, and will be punt god.

White and the Bills deploy more man than given credit for. Having a press man corner opposite Tre allows Buffalo to do more exotic looks. Tre White is the culture imo. He is super detailed. Also, 100% himself at the same time.

Great point. Want a spectacle, highlighting the Rams I think you may be onto something. Not that Bills fans dont travel but LA seems to be Raiders, 49ers and Cowboys heavy. First game of the year Buffalo may be the choice with all factors coming into play.

Thats the NFLs big reveal Thursday. Last year Dallas vs Tampa wasnt whispered til Wed morning. Imo the NFL is keeping more people in the dark to make it a bigger deal. Home openers for all franchise go on sale at 6 pm when the games are announced. Rest of the schedule is released and are on sale at 8pm. Doing it to drive traffic and ticket sales. I saw the LA times is speculating it will be Buffalo. Imo its 49ers or Bills. NFC championship game rematch. Division rivals. Buffalo is the hot team. Everyone still remembers and talks about the Chiefs game. That was the best game of the season last year. Allen is becoming the face of the league. Expect to see Allen in primetime and on alot more commercials.

I think teams would be ok with 80% Mayfield on the field, but getting 0% of him off the field. Like Marriota and Trubisky. Neither may not be as good as the best Mayfield has played. They are probably seen more consistent and better in the building.

If the dude cant figure how to hold he doesn't deserve a roster spot. I think the team just wants to make sure Ariza does all the small things required to be great. Not just bombing balls. Ig isnt everything but it looks like he is doing the work needed.

I think this game could still be the home opener. Either way thats the 1 im highlighting to attend.

Imo, too slow to beat press coverage. Struggled outside at Oregon St. Tall and on the thin size. I think his skills work in the slot. Do they want to use that type? They haven't recently. A few years on the team not being able to earn a spot, Im not putting much faith he supplants one of the aforementioned. I would not use Cook on teams. I think he will have a larger role on offense. Now if his role isnt what Im imagining it to be I could see using him as a return man to get him on the field. To me it is Stevenson, Mckenzie and Shakir. One of them takes it. I think if it Shakir Stevenson and Mckenzie will be on the bubble.

I dont think Hodgins can play outside. Imo he is more a slot only than Shakir. I dont think he makes it. I think they go Diggs, Davis, Crowder, Shakir, Mckenzie, Kumerow and Stevenson. The amount of 3 and 4 wide sets I think they keep 7. Stevenson will have to have a good camp and get the return gig.

In this offense he has a legit shot at rookie of the year.

Imo he is athletic enough to figure out holding. Has a kicking coach to adjust to the NFL ball and style. He has a monster leg. I think he will add hang time. Control will come with time. Those games where the offense sputters having a guy who can flip field position will be big.

They have 5 star after 5 star. Cook had the ability to play outside, they used that to get another back on field. College is a different deal with transfer portal and NIL. Kamara had to transfer out of Alabama because he couldnt see the field. He was a 3rd rd pick. Im saying coming out of college Cook is similar to Kamara. I see in his game the pass catching ability and exploit seems in the defense. Just like Ingram, Singletary eill be the back and Cook slowly gets more and more snaps.

If he went to a smaller school and had 4 times the touches would he be looked at the same? I see his uses as a big plus. He averaged over 6 yards per carry and over 3.5 yards after contact in the SEC with a game manager QB. Im not buying the internet scout, contact balance take. That as a runner is worthy of 2nd rd. His ability to run wr routes makes him a complete problem. He very well could get the Beasley targets. Teams want to play man press you motion out Cook vs a saftey or baker and he wins. The more I think about Cook and Buffalo the more I like it.

Value in the draft is a made up thing. It doesnt matter where you draft a guy. Does he fit the scheme can he play. First 3 rd should be playing. Can Bernard play? Yes. Alot? Probably not. When they go 4-3 I expect he has more than a shot to be the third lb. He provides better coverage skills than the other backers behind Edmunds and Milano. The perception of the pick is neg because many want a Edmunds replacement. He is not. I think he is the special team ace third baker on the cheap to allow the team to extend Edmunds.

I do not think it is a coincidence that Brady is brought on board and the offense looks for a multipurpose back. Brady from New Orleans. I think Cook is somewhere between Reggie Bush and Alvin Kamara. Reggie Bush as a Saint was a problem. I wont limited him as a runner. Buffalo is not a run heavy team. A few good running looks that are schemed up Cook will take advantage imo.

Kromer is a zone scheme guy. He wants athletic lineman.
