Was there never doubt that Terell Owens would sign with Buffalo?
Bryant in Buffalo? Why not?

I know Sammy Watkins is no longer a Buffalo Bill, so I understand if this thread needs to be moved elsewhere, but....has anyone else seen what he's been posting on Twitter lately? I'm starting to have an idea of why McDermott and Beane thought he'd be better off anywhere BUT in Buffalo's locker room...
Trying to turn attention away from maybe, sometimes, a little bit current Bills player Richie Incognito's lunacy via former Bills player Sammy Watkins huh?
I see what you did there.

Very strange the backlash and lack of empathy fans showed players like Marshawn Lynch and Jairus Byrd on their way out of Buffalo, and even recently Zay Jones during his trying time but aren't in complete "f off" mode concerning Incognito and his lack of respect for the Bills front office and this new regime as a whole.
I'm surprised so many people are open-armed, willing to receive Incognito again and feel so encouraged by his tweet...I mean it was ended with #madeyalook.
Incognito to me will always be a boneheaded, idiot in my book for his past antics with other teams and he's showing again why this take on him is completely justifiable.

Bullies Jonathan Martin...gets bullied by Muhammad Wilkerson, Von Miller, etc., on-field.
Good riddance Richie Boy.

Giants are apparently now dangling Josh Rosen out there for the entire NFL and any club willing to pay up to get him.
Would sure hate to wake up tomorrow and learn that the Patriots packaged their picks to secure the No.2 spot and Josh Rosen.

This is not a great draft for outside deep threat receivers. Lots of slot guys or guys like Kelvin Benjamin.
Bryant has experience and history, albeit off the field issues and is a free agent after the 2018!season as is Benjamin. But if both produce we have the cap space next season to retain both.
I'm hoping we see a huge bump in productivity in Zay Jones in the slot and for that reason I may consider another receiver in the 4th, 5th or 6 rounds that's a slot type.
Then if we can make the deal for Bryant here is my draft:
Round 1 - pick 12 - Leighton Vander Eshe
Round 1 - pick 22 - Billy Price
Round 2 - pick 53 - Harrison Phillips
Round 2 - Pick 56 - Rashard Penny
Round 3 - Pick 65 - Luke Falk
Round 4 - Pick 121 - Fred Warner
Round 5 - Pick 167 - Taron Johnson
Round 6 - Pick 188 - Tony Adams
What is up with you and Luke Falk?

You're right... I better check my privilege. That toxic Caucasian masculinity came over me like a wave. My bad...
My guess is you're trying to be clever, but you've really said nothing.

I wouldn't have cared if Jonathan Martin made good on his threats to Igcognito.
He strikes me as as the "big scary white guy" who would try to befriend Ndamukong Suh but bully Jonathan Martin.
Really hate white guys like him who think growing up country and hunting big game means they're a bad ass and can't get their ass kicked.

He did exactly what the coach hated. Asked Why
Okay now it's funny. I read the article earlier today on another website about the coach saying something about millennials needing to ask why or ask questions or something like that, but that part just didn't stand out when I was trying to make sense out of the tweet. But yeah that's pretty funny.

What's so great about this response?
I don't get it.

Not exactly sure why but I have a bad feeling that Rudolph could be the quarterback we end up taking.
Maybe it's because him and Beane are both from the Carolina's, or perhaps it's because we traded up to 12th (a position that he should be available)
After reading his scouting report I really hope we aren't considering taking this guy!
Don't know if this adds to the bad feelings, but this thread had exactly 666 views at the time of me clicking it.

You did didn't you...
But we must now shift focus from Fred Wagner to Fred Warner.

I was there for that game. Best play in Bills history! Or at least top three.
What makes that a top three play?
Did it lead to something big?

Is Hughes' spot on the team really that safe though?
He could fairly be labeled a head-case with all the 15yd. penalties he's incurred during games in his time as a Bill.
I could see them moving away from Hughes because of his detrimental on-field behavior.

Why does everyone want a RB so bad?
I for sure get that McCoy is turning 30 and Ivory is old as well.
But this team has so many holes on this team and they don't need to address RB this year.
QB, 2 o lineman, 2 linebackers, WR are way bigger priorities for this team.
I would wait one more year and then address the RB position
Because it's needed.
For me at least it has zero to do with McCoy's age but running styles.
Penny is an east-west runner while we all know McCoy tries too hard to break ankles running laterally too much.
It's a position that doesn't stick out on paper as a need but is vital that an RB with a different running style is blended with McCoy's.

I don't like trading off for next year's first. The question I have regarding Falk is does he have a strong enough arm to make him a credible prospect? I wouldn't mind adding Bryant to a weak receiving corps but is he too undependable regarding his off-field habits? In general I like the infusion of talent to the roster.
My ideal situation is that a qb such as Mayfield slides and we select him with our first pick and then select from our honey pot of picks. I have no problem maneuvering up and down to select more players or get another player in a trade.
The irony is that the rebuilding Bills played beyond their talent level last year. That hurt us from a draft standpoint. It also demonstrated that in this embryonic stage of rebuilding that McDermott's vision on the type of players he wants on his roster works.
Luke Falk plays kind of uninspired. He throws the ball nicely, was hyped as being "cerebral" at one point, I never saw him in that light.
Mike Leach pulled him in a game in favor of Tyler Hilinski (freshman? --QB that recently committed suicide), because he just wouldn't pull the trigger and get the ball to his receivers.
Would hate this draft if this happened just off of the Falk pick.

*sigh* Embarrassing and sad.
Couldn't have picked a better time.
Hope he's okay though.

Maybe I'm thinking of another game or player, but I could've sworn Hurns was the guy that torched the Bills in that London game the Bills inexplicably lost to Jax with EJ Manuel at QB.
I know Hurns was a breakout player one year.

wait... that’s all the Jets gave up????
Yikes. Come on Beane, you’re better than them!
You're only able to say this because they just needed a move of three spots to get to 3. It's no indicator of how little the Bills would have had to give up to move to 3 from the 12 spot.

Yes but he can’t rush the passer. Like I said Capi Capi does a better job getting to the QB and is almost as good against the run
I remember in the Jets game there was a stretch were they seemingly avoided running the ball to Shaw Lawson's side. Second he was subbed out...they ran to his side.
Capi didn't stand out as a real find to me in the pass rushing dept., but perhaps he is as good as you say he is.
I'm not buying that he's equally effective against the run as Lawson though.

That is easy to say - When you start in the bottom of the gutter - the only direction is up.
He will perform like a guy who should've been drafted two or three rounds earlier than where selected.

Bills are going to have trade assets at QB in two or three years. McCarron is going to be good and calls will be made about Peterman's availability.
Folks are sleeping on Peterman.
He'll be much improved year two.

Everyone's wrong.
It's 21 Savage.

WOW! I didn't think that would happen. I''ve never been a huge Glenn fan, but still, I would have thought the Bills would have wanted some stability. Richie is going to feel lonely over there on the left side.
I always felt Glenn was somewhat overrated but a good LT nonetheless.
Incognito would have Dawkins by his side. I thought he was pretty solid.
