  1. Would love to see the numbers on that. Long term you're probably correct but In would highly doubt "most" 7th round picks are cut in their first year.
  2. Man, these guys with all their passive language. I believe a big trade may or may not be coming, but probably is or isnt. Most likely this weekend or sometime between January and December. Stay Tuned!
  3. I understand and ultimately it's fine. I just dont like the trend of using 7th round picks on guys who don't make the team
  4. Not sure what the hell Beane was thinking with the Coleman trade. Did the same garbage with Kaelin Clay last year.
  5. Glad the Bills didnt get into a bidding war. The Bears got absolutely fleeced. The market for Mack should have been closer to what the Patriots got for Chandler Jones and that wasnt even a first. Only a few players in the league are worth more than one first and they are both quarterbacks. If Trubisky sucks the Bears will have a long hole to climb out of
  6. He was arrested last year. But the cornerback who just got out of prison is Sean Smith.
  7. I'll bet the under on this one. Carolina's depth isn't all that great and at this point the Bills backups are almost all players Beane or McDermott hand selected. 1 at most. Could see them bringing in Daryl Worley at CB if the Raiders cut him though.
  8. Not sure why everyone is getting on the guys case for bringing this up. Lawson has literally played DT in this scheme, both during the season last year and during this preseason. I agree. They should be moving him around because he doesnt have the first step to be a pass rusher.
  9. Licht loves him some Ryan Griffin. It seems like every time he speaks about his quarterbacks, whether Griffin is asked about or not, he works his name in there. The Glazers made a big mistake bringing Koetter and Licht back this year.
  10. Raiders dont need Clay, they have Jared Cook. Similar player who makes 2 million less a year.
  11. Hoping they keep him as his skill set is different than anyone else we have. Wont be upset either way, but if I had to choose between him or Ray Ray, I'd keep Coleman.
  12. You think the Bills should take a shot?
  13. I'd be very surprised if they cut Coleman. I think he and Zay played a lot last night because they haven't had enough reps to get ready to play during the season. I also think if it comes down to either him or McCloud for the final wideout spot you keep the 4.3, 1st round talent guy, over the 4.53 6th round talent guy. My surprise cuts would be McCarron and Bodine.
  14. I would have paid him in a second. He is currently slotted as the 19th highest paid Quarterback in the league. The benefit of signing a player like that stretches far beyond play on the field. He has been through the same situation as Allen is going through now, and could teach a him a lot. Peterman brings none of that. Its the NFL, Quarterbacks get paid a lot of money. Even the mid range starters
  15. Pretty sure he is still PS eligible with only 2 accrued seasons.
  16. He is a 5 '9 180 pound guy who runs a 4.53 40. He looks like he should be fast but isnt.
  17. One of the worst coaches in the league. One of the reasons I don't worry much about Darnold is Bowles. Similar to Hue Jackson playing Baker tonight and sitting Drew.Stanton.
  18. He gets 2 million this year and 2.1 next year if he ends up a post 6\1 roster cut. Not bad for 5 months of work eh?
  19. Maybe that's why McCarron didn't bother running down the fella on the pick six. Gotta protect the texting thumb. Gonna need it asking old coaches for a new job Saturday
  20. They had a press conference to announce his signing. He wore a suit. If I can find a.picture of him and McBeane holding a #10 Bills jersey, we could complete in wrapping it up as the biggest joke FA signing in Bills history.
  21. Not sure who ends up looking like the bigger idiot after this. McCarron for giving up a job where he literally had to do nothing but watch football from the sidelines every Sunday to being unemployed. Or the Bills for eating 4.1 million dollars in salary cap space for him to be unemployed. McCarron, Newhouse, and Bodine all look like giant misses.
  22. They have to do something at swing tackle. If it's not Deondre Wesley it's someone from another team because Newhouse.and McDermot are horrendous.
  23. Would love to see the 1st and 2nd round wideouts we have on the field get any sort of separation from the scout team cornerbacks.
  24. I honestly could care less who our Quarterbacks coach is. You hear every year how a team brought in a storied Quarterbacks coach to work on so and so's footwork and its made a world of difference, and then so and so goes back out and does what he did the year before. Why, because so and so wasn't good and a coach wasnt going to change that enough to turn him into Tom Brady all of the sudden. Five teams have rookie quarterbacks picked in the 1st round of this years draft. If you look at who those teams employ as their quarterback's coach, you'll see coaches with anywhere from 1 year experience as a QB's coach (Arizona) to guys who have 12 years experience as a QB's coach (Cleveland). Outside of Culley, those other guys have coached 24 players who have started games in the league. 7 of those 24 have been successful, around 30%. Which is the exact success rate you'd expect when drafting a Quarterback from college. Long story short, these players come into the league with the talent to be good or to fail, 70% of the time they fail regardless of coaching.
