  1. I get the sense that Beane isn't going to let anyone get the better of him and he'd like to keep that 22nd pick and still have a couple picks on day 2 rather than going all in on 1 guy like the Skins did for RG3. A move like that would set us back years -- giving up so many high picks and getting RG4 (or EJ2.0) in return.
  2. I get it -- People think the Bills are snoozing, but all of these top QB prospects have questions that concern me. Darnold -- Turnovers, Mayfield -- Arm strength, Rosen -- Deep throws, Allen -- Completion %. Beane can get an awful lot of talent and still get Mike White on day 2. Then, if McCarron busts, we'll be in good shape for the 2019 draft. I'm not saying none of these top 4 prospects will make it, but the last time we got desparate, we ended up drafting EJ Manual in the 1st round. Maybe this will all work out. Maybe not. As Marv Levy said, the draft is a crapshoot.
  3. No thanks. Maybe a 1 year deal until we can find an upgrade, but he's a below avg LB just like P Brown.
  4. I can't help but laugh at the posts saying Hughes is no good. He is the best DL on our roster and it's not even close. I just hope Beane and McD are smarter than that. Still, if it's the only way to get one of the top 4 QB's, then I guess I could live with being dead last in sacks or close to it for another year. I also think having Murphy on the other end of the DL will help him a lot. Other teams won't be able to focus as much attention on him. Good points. He's been really good vs the run as well. Lots of hustle.
  5. If we're using the same adjectives to describe Murphy that people have used to describe Lynch, that would be great!Beast, powerful, explosive, take your pick.
  6. Murphy. He's an immediate upgrade over Shaq. He's a hair above avg. McCarron should be a solid backup. Lotulelei should help a bit in the run game, but does nothing for our pass defense in a passing league. Some seem to think he's great. He's not even close. He can't shed blockers to save his life. I get that he's just a space eater, but he's a liability in every other phase of the game. Spare me the "Oh but he doesn't have to do this or be that." We've been doing "don't have to" long enough. All that said, if we finish in the top 6 in run defense, I'll be pleased enough. You can't have probowlers at every position. I like Ivory. He'll be able to take some of the load off Shady's back and he's a gargantuan upgrade over Tolbert, even at his age.
  7. Did he ever say that he wanted choirboys? I think they really want are guys that are dependable and highly self-motivated. Guys that show up for every team function looking like they spend all their time in the gym. Guys like JJ Watt.
  8. Now that the Browns have signed Hyde, I'd be amazed if they didn't take Darnold with the 1st pick. I hop I'm wrong, but I just don't see any way we can get him.
  9. He hasn't been playing well for a while now. No thanks.
  10. If the Colts or Giants try to take advantage of our need for a QB and ask too much, this could happen, but it's unlikely. I could see Mike White in the 3rd maybe??? Rudolph has a low ceiling according to what I've read. If Jackson is there at 12, I'm OK with it. I think think the Browns get Darnold and the Giants take Mayfield or Rosen. We really need to get to 3 or 4.
  11. LMAO! Speaking for the left, we couldn't care less.
  12. I hope AJ is a pleasant surprise and might do well in a short passing scheme. I don't know where this strong arm talk is coming from, though. He isn't going to wow anyone with his arm strength or deep ball, but hopefully he can pick things up quickly. He also isn't going to do much running either. He's a lead foot lol. That's OK by me. Miami went undefeated with Bob Griese and he didn't have the strongest arm or footspeed either -- He made quick decisions and had good accuracy. If AJ can match that, he'll be solid.
  13. I don't know why so many here are talking like Groy is a solid sterter. He's a backup caliber C. I hope Billy Price slips to the 3rd and we can grab him. Let Groy play until Price is ready. I'd love to see that happen. I don't agree about P Brown. A much better MLB would do wonders for our run defense. Tackles are a misleading stat. Brown is a below average MLB.
  14. We need an upgrade over O'Leary. He had a dismal season. Any help we can get at LB would be great. I don't know if we can get any help at C or RG, but that would be nice too. Also, DiMarco had a very disappointing season as well. A good FB could be headed our way. I also wouldn't be surprised if we used our lasr pick on a punter. Schmidt has been a liability of late. The return game could use a boost as well. Tate is not the worst, but I can't imagine that it would be all that hard to find a WR that would have a better chance of taking one back once in a while.OT is an obious need too.
  15. My guess is they will now get Darnold with the 1st pick. Darn! I was kinda hoping he'd be there at 3 for us.
  16. 1. They're drafting their QB. 2. See #1.
  17. Maybe next year, but not this year. We might even take a step back.
  18. Tolbert and Star L are the best Panthers? They both suck LOL!
  19. I think he stays as a backup. Star L is only very marginally better so if he got injured there wouldn't be any noticeable drop off with Washington taking his place. We will be getting very few sacks this year BTW. Washington is a much better pass rusher than SL, so our newest DT could be a 2-down guy. Yes Kyle's play has declined, but he's still far better than Star L. At least Kyle is average. SL and AW are backup caliber players.
  20. If we are trading up to #3 do we really need to pay a lot for a veteran QB? We might, but then again, we might play the rookie right away. McCarron wants to be a starter, not a well paid backup. Foles is not a FA and we'd probably have to give up a middle round pick to get him. No thanks.
  21. For depth? I don't want him in the starting lineup. He's not very good. Solid backup, though. I just hope we didn't pay him starter money.
  22. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
  23. Rosen or Mayfield
  24. I 'm guessing they want Rosen or Mayfield.
