How is this draft mismanaged? I’m not just defending Beane for the sake of it but all three picks have filled needs maybe not the most urgent needs but the longer term depth and development needs have been filled.Parker gives the team something after Groot and Chubb off the Edge, The corner taken is durable and a bigger player than the team has had in that role in the past, and now they added a swing tackle heir apparent to Dion.
I feel like the drought era would be drafting a RB and a TE early with this roster
Excellent post.
Once the first few posters declared this was an utter disaster pick, groupthink took over. Things like long term depth and development needs weren't part of the herd mentality. Many wouldn't be happy UNLESS every pick was either a NT or WR.

I think that Buffalo building the new stadium out in the suburbs again, makes a great college game, tailgating atmosphere. But they lost the opportunities for things like the NFL draft or hosting a Super Bowl when they didn’t go for a downtown dome within walking distance of the convention center, hotels, restaurants, bars, etc.
Walking distance to convention center, hotel, restaurants and bars? LOL.
The Bills were NEVER going to host a suprerbowl, you are delusional if you think they would have given an overpriced downtown domed stadium. WNY doesn't even have the ability to park all the private jets that fly in for the superbow,
Now they MIGHT have a shot at the draft, that is realistic and our consultation prize for the new stadium..

Huh. I'd be interested to know if you've been through a divorce and your reaction when it was done was, "Wow, that wasn't so hard."
Shockingly naive or simplistic comment, especially both have kids, she was banging Vrabel the year she got married, and she named he first kid Mike, nice touch. it isnt exactly the Brady Bunch getting together.

^ says Albert Breer lol.
Remains to be seen what (if any) action or actions the spouses of Vrabel or Russini make - this story has so many tangents and keeps going.
The best is read the comments below the first video from Breer. It appears to be mostly Pats fans and 95% and wildly negative to Vrabel.

Hate it. Our first pick is our #4 pass rusher. You can’t tell me now that McD was pulling the strings.
So many higher rated guys at positions that could start day one
Really, so since there are so many higher rated players that could start day one, name some.
And what is the relevance or evidence to state McD was pulling the strings or not in the draft?

He's still only 24
What's his value? 5th?5th, no way, not after Pegula comments and him being a healthy scratch, I would take a 7th at this point.

This snippet of Levy is more of an indictment on HIM, not Chuck. If Chuck was so terrible and had such a terrible record prior to the Bills, that is on YOU Marv for hiring him

I agree. His effort has looked like *chit* on the field, and off the field, for the last ~12 games.
Devils advocate-- I could see a dude like Keon making a mistake, (ITS WHO YOU DRAFTED - he's not the smartest guy IMO), going in the dog house hard, and the kid with a goldfish attention span, feels like he'll never be allowed to earn himself out of it
McD is a CLASSIC TYPE A PERSONALITY
Keon - CLASSIC TYPE B -possibly the poster boy for it
Those 2 personalities will always clash. Coach made him earn it back --off the field. Keon (in his head) addressed it in his way and did enough to leave the doghouse in his opinion, it wasn't enough. Keon then decides, theres nothing I'm going to do to get out of the doghouse and has a case off the "f*** it's"
I'm naturally a type B, I recognize one when I see one! Ive had to do a lot of work to understand Type A's personality, and also adapt my attitude when I'm around them. I'm all about efficiency, if doing something 'by the book' has extra steps that dont effect/change the outcome... I'm skipping them. I'd rather not waste time/energy, that can be placed somewhere more 'fruitful'. Type A does not see it that way -> they see lack of regiment and structure.
TL:DR Keon is who he is... im pretty sure he got off on wrong foot with McD. Keon is a dude that makes a mistake and wants to go out there, and earn your trust back ON THE FIELD. McD, is a guy who says NO, YOU EARN IT OFF THE FIELD, WITH EXCEPTIONAL ADHERENCE - BY THE BOOK, FOR PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME.
I can see this personality difference 100% being de-motivating to a player like him...**McD is trying to motivate him, the way that he himself would be motivated**, but you drafted him. It doesnt matter who's wrong or right, were trying to get production out of a high pick. So either:
1. Cut him - he's not a fit
OR
2. Give clean slate with new staff. **Understand you need to motivate him differently**, go easy on the kid's ego and see if you can get him going.
If a player is talented and can't adapt, then the coach needs to adapt, and do whatever he needs to, to get production out of the asset.
If the juice < squeeze after trying that, then you move on
Interesting comments, you MIGHT be on to something. McD loved his structure, trust the process cr$p.
As for will he ever fit in? No one knows but a new HC, i would strongly urge him not to go "soft" on Coleman setting a bad early example.
Given all you said is true, I would use the McD firing as the prime excuse to trade Coleman for what we can get. We tell other teams, it was just a terrible fir with McD and Coleman, he still has value but we wont to move on, "blame" it on McD.

I like where this thread is headed but are we really going to start up with throwing Coleman under the bus again?..........or should we just let it go and see if he can pull his head out of his *** this year and see where it takes us and then deal with bust or not?
I think he's got the tools but perhaps lacks some discipline and some drive......maybe some old school mentorship will do him some good and maybe bringing in Moore will help him.
Jury's out on this one for me.
Throwing him under the bus might be a necessary evil to get him some motivation. If "we" are throwing him under the bus, bo ho, he has no one top blame but himself.
-
Wow, much better than I thought but comparing him to someone that got shot is absurd.
The comment about Coleman being a bust even by his owner was just very poor public speaking on the part of Terry Pegula, not really a shock in that.
The bigger issue is why was he a healthy scratch several times? Was he just late for meetings, a personality issue with the coaches? That to me is the real issue and not helped by some pivotal drops.

You mean the punks that are Religious AF?!?
Yep - perfect fit. Carr would be better than Drake maye I bet...
1) What is a religious AF?
2) Yeah, middle tier NFL QB with a year off after declining to have surgery to repair his shoulder and other medical issues is going to come back and be better than the QB that was #2 in MVP voting this year, ahead of Josh allen. I saw the Super Bowl and his terrible performance and he is a Pat but think think Carr would be better is, imo, absurd.

Darron Lee, ex Bill, (among several other teams) accused of murder.
I think the Bills have to be leading the list of ex players accused of murder, Darron joins Jim Dunaway and (OJ, gets double credit).

Wish this crap would end- this is the downside of treating people like kings because they can play a sport-
lots have integrity and are good people but there seems to constantly be a story like this way too often
of course I will let things play out and see what comes of it- just sad if true
Relax, it will end soon, the same brain trust that selected Ban Bunny to do the halftime show in spanish also has appointed a Chief Kindness Officer so it will all be ok.

Dunkirk Don was excellent, but the BEST of all time, was McAdditct? I dont recall if it was on TBD or the old bills board.

Interesting going through those old avatars, no one I recognize, that is a lot of turnover ins 20 years.

That was not a knock on the Patriots. They have a short window before they have to pay Maye and the Vrabel shtick gets old. I hope Maye wins MVP, drives his price way up! Tua got his money without winning it, so Maye should be fine. We know what Diggs did for us in the playoffs. The only way Patriots win Sunday is if Goodell’s ref’s hand them the game.
Short window? Really, you ready to suffer for the next three years as the Pats have a elite franchise (hope he implodes like CJ Stroud) on a rookie contract.
As for Vrabel, his shtick gets old because we are bills fans. If he keeps winning he shtick is going to get louder and more obnoxious.
As for Sunday, I agree the the seahawks are going to crush the Pats just like Philly did to KC last year.New England get so unbelievably luck y this year with a joke schedule and and and no Bo Nix.

They've got Tha cap space for it. Win or lose this week they are going to build a monster. I hope Beane is up for it. I guess there's only so much you can do. Maybe I should say, I hope us Bills fans are up for it. Pisses me off that we "trusted the process" for almost a decade while Vrabel turns them around in a year.
Relax, we have the mighty Brandon Beane to smooth this over, he can handle it as long as he talks time off to curse at interviewers.
Amazing how much damage he has down to bill fans in the past week. I was all in on Beane-McDermott, i understand the change but is should have been to clean house, Terry without a coherent Kim is way over his head.

If we somehow pulled a trade for AJ Brown and Crosby, this board would melt down in the best way possible.
Oh obviously they could get it done, new DC, gut Defense the smaller non 3-4 players (Oliver), AJ Brown would be, imo, suddenly a TEAM player with Josh allen, could be electric. Crosby I dont know enough about his game to opin.

He'll be a Pat. I'm going to expect this kind of thing for the Pats a lot this off season.
You really have Pats derangement syndrome down, must be a horrific week fior you especially if Stefon Diggs does well and Drake Maye wins MVP and Vrable HC of the year. Then what do you do??

Crazy imo by Crosby, unless that bad hair cut goofball owner is intolerable. Got a great prospective HC, a potential franchise QB and a ton of draft picks. They could be a real force very very soon, cheap rookie QB.

You do for Phillip Rivers because he is Phillip Rivers. He isn't just some potential coach candidate. He is a very special case that requires more vetting, not the least of which is making sure he is even up to committing the long hours needed for the job, something you already know the others are committed to because they already do it.
It was never going to work, not with all his kids and he takes parenting very serious. We would had a part time HC.

As has been pointed out often and with good reasoning, Pegula couldn't have fired both of them.
He would have had no one in the organization to lead both a GM and HC search... the team would have been adrift at sea.
He had to pick between the two... fire one and keep the other.
It might have been different if Kim was still active in league affairs but without her, no one in the organization is connected enough and Pegula probably didn't like the idea having to hire an outside consultant.
I think this is 100% accurate. I know Terry made all the $, i know a lot about the energy cycles and to his credit, he picked off the alLEGED efege guru in the industry (i knew him very well) but terry got, imo, lucky or perfect timing. Kim was always smarter than Terry.

Vrabel and Russini cheating on their spouses together ? Rumor
in The Stadium Wall

Thanks, now i had to search her out and see her, imo she is not bad looking at all, especially for her age.
