So yup, you are right. I own that mistake, I thought he asked about Dhaquille which is “Duke” but it was Jacquan. I misheard it and the literal description was all the same stuff they said about Duke when we first signed him, so seemed to match and didn’t catch the mistake.
Thanks for pointing that out and take no offense of you doing so. Was my mistake.
Still doesn’t change my belief they like him as they have said quite a few good things about him before too.
And yeah, the Beane pressers have been great throughout the draft. I get alerted through Periscope when they go live and watch there. Download Periscope and follow the Buffalo Bills. There are quite a few pressers people miss that got good stuff in it.
Welcome again to the board
Cheers
I think it is pretty normal for regimes to say good things about the guys they sign. I wouldn't read into what they say in pressers about their players, because 99% of the time it is just going to be positive fluff.
My personal opinion is that Duke has a very steep hill to climb if he wants to make the roster. Watching him, he just seems so slow to me. I kind of doubt he does make the roster, but I hope he proves me wrong and dominates.
I've got no skin in the game. If Zay Jones gets cut or traded, I don't care. If Duke becomes the #1, great. I just want to see a really good group of receivers that produce consistently at a high level. Whoever does that will get a virtual high five from me.

LT- Dawkins- Waddle
LG-Spain- Teller
C-Morse- Long
RG-Ford- Feliciano
RT-Nsekhe- Ford*
They keep nine offensive lineman. Ford starts at guard, if an injury happens to Dawkins, Nsekhe goes to LT, Ford to RT, Feliciano or Long to RG.
they have a lot of nice options
This is how I see it ending up as well. Nice prediction.
I also personally believe there is practically no chance that Dawkins loses his spot. I think his name is written in sharpie on the depth chart. Just my personal view.

I’d say the answer likely lands on film not on paper
Great point. Allen was all his team had. I haven't watched UB or Jackson, but I suspect he had help where as Allen had none. It required super human effort to elevate his crappy team at Wyoming.

Aaron Donald is kind of meek in his pressers too, at least in the past. He's pretty quiet and polite off the field, and a terror on the field. Of course, I haven't listened to him lately. Not sure if that has changed now that he is so established as an elite defender.

I'm pretty sure the difference is the conference, right? Also, the one stat that really stood out is Jackson throwing twice as many INT's.
This power ranking has the MWC ranked 7th out of 10, and the MAC ranked 9th out of 10: https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/2018-college-football-conference-power-rankings-sec-back-on-top-but-where-does-the-big-ten-land/

Sidebar: Eric Wood sucked with the 2nd round pick announcement. ZERO swag, said nothing to the fans. Very dry....simply announced the pick. He looks great tho...lol
I wish every single pick was that way. I don't care to hear trash talking or pandering to fans by former players. I just want the pick. In fact, just have the NFL hire a temp to stand up there for three days and announce every single pick. That would be the best.

Fans are hungry... Who we cutting trying to add receivers and ends?? This is a tough team to crack now. Not sure what I’m missing but the squad looks pretty impressive to me.
You cut whoever is worst. We can definitely use some high end talent at both positions, but I doubt that happens this off season. We need elites, not more depth.

Why would I do that. I can be highly critical of the team and still support them.
Might have to look up the definition of "support".

Another FULLBACK?!!
We need pass rushers. Didn't happen early in the draft. Either they didn't view it as a top priority or BPA never met pick. He's got some upside and there is certainly an opportunity for an "edge" to unseat either Shaq or Murphy.
Fullback?

The problem with your rebuttal average random fan is that Whaley and his scouts ran the 2017 draft not Beane.
McDermott was in charge. Everybody knows that. That's why I said Beane AND McDermott. Those two are responsible for the latest rebuild of this team.

What gets my blood boiling is losing and not having a WR worth a F over the last 10 years due to ineptness. Some of us have high standards, thankfully Beane seems to be fairly competent, but so far it doesn’t appear to be so for the WR department.
Maybe you need to take a break from the Bills.

and EJ Gaines and Levi Wallace
Well they play outside. The comment was about Nickel Corner being a need. Taron Johnson was playing at a pro bowl level at nickel corner before he got shut down for surgery.
Just now, Mark92 said:I am so sick of people not knowing ***** about these players but calling them bad picks. ALL of these late round players have flaws that's why they are being drafted late. The analysts talk about their flaws so people think they are bad picks. It's awful this year.
It also gets my blood boiling. Idiot fans who have no idea what they are talking about. They know like 5 players and if we don't take those 5 players they think the pick is a bad one.

Love the pick. Milano 2.0.
I was going to say the same thing. Sounds like a Milano type.

Seems like he is more of a Nickel Corner than safety. Which is a need
Really? We've got Taron Johnson coming back.

Week 6 at the latest.

Nope. He'll be our left tackle for years, I predict.
He had a down year in a year in which our entire line was garbage. That's what happens with the oline. One weak link and it hurts everybody. What would 4 weak links cause?

Brown, Beasley, and Jones are all WR3 on good teams. We don't even have a WR2 like Woods, Ridley, Watkins, Kupp, etc... Not to mention WR1 like Julio, ODB, Green, Brown, etc...
The best teams have a variety of offensive weapons or the best QB of all time. Pats, Chiefs, Rams, Saints are the teams we should be trying to mirror ourselves after.
Beasley is one of the best slot receivers in the league. Brown has been a high end #2 his entire career. You don't know of what you speak, dude.

I agree completely with you and all posters disagreeing are homers. Just have to wait until the season starts to prove them wrong as usual. I mean 1 playoff year in 20 and it was a fluke yet still believe the Bills make great decisions. Allen is an inaccurate QB and as we saw last year no one could get separation, that is still a huge issue. I see another year with loads of INTs. We need to do what KC did with Hill/Hunt/Kelce/Watkins. Surround your young franchise QB with as many weapons as possible. Not a big fan of a slow RB either, have enough of those.
Yep, Hill and Hunt are really working out for them, right?
John Brown and Cole Beasley BOTH get excellent separation, as does Foster. It's clear, crystal clear, you don't know what you are talking about.

This is truly a moronic take. The WR's are 10 times better. You added two legit NFL receivers in John Brown and Cole Beasley. You have Foster coming back in year two after showing considerable development in year 1. They added other depth signings as well. Zay Jones goes from your #1 WR to your #3, at best. It's way better.
Yeah, we don't have a legit #1 elite receiver, but you can't fix everything in one off season.

well first, Wade doesn't count towards the 53 so its actually 8 guys that would count...DiMarco could be gone and we end the FB position in Buffalo... Murphy, Ford and Perry...do any of these guys have PS eligibility?
Lots of fans seem to hate DiMarco and want him gone, but it seems that those in the building like him and view him as a leader. I think he stays.
-
I think much of the media has acknowledged that Allen showed flashes and has the potential to be a good QB. Most seem to understand that he made the most of a bad situation. I don't hear a lot of national media people trashing Allen. Obviously you have a few curmudgeons sticking to their original analysis, but you also have people trashing Rosen (Steve Smith anyone?)

Proven record of throwing away mid rd pks. That's what the Bills do this is nothing new. Paid millions yes and there's plenty of them being paid millions to go home and collect dust because of there inept draft skills.
Beane and McDermott have already proven, in their last two years of drafting, that they are good at identifying talent and getting guys that will help the team. Edmunds, Allen, Matt Milano, Taron Johnson, Tre White, Wyatt Teller, Dion Dawkins, Zay Jones. Undrafted Levi Wallace and Robert Foster. These are guys from the last two draft classes that have been significant contributors and are the building blocks of the new team. You can't argue with their success rate.
1 minute ago, C.Biscuit97 said:Antonio Brown went in the 6th. Colston went in the 7th. Thielen wasn’t drafted.
Those are definitely exceptions. If you never found diamonds in the rough, the draft would only be 4 rounds long. But generally speaking, higher picks are better.

Can someone who likes Schopp explain a little more about why they like him? To me he doesn't seem to understand football more than a random fan, and he doesn't seem to know the team all that well. He just seems like a random guy with lots of opinions without doing his homework.
So maybe if he was an expert I would value his opinion, but he's not, at least with football. Maybe he knows a lot about hockey or other sports.

I do think the group will be tremendously improved. I'm already cringing thinking about the first few weeks and them meshing, though. It might be rough for awhile. But ultimately I believe we'll see a much better product by the end of the year, something we can put a stamp on as a team strength going into next season (if we resign some of those 1 year prove it players).
