C'mon Falcons...Take Pitts!

SF would have been foolish to give up all that draft capital for vanilla Mac Jones. Likely means they hang onto Jimmy G. Belichick has to be working the phones to move up.

Wilson looks like he could have said: "First thing I'm going to buy is a new skateboard!"

Well...at least he finally grew into his nose.

Watching NFL Network. Greenberg is hosting on ESPN. He's such a Jet homer, he's unwatchable.

The Packers fan base is collectively panicking.

Heck...we're picking at 30. There may not be any first round grade players available where we pick. However, I trust Beane and the front office know more about football players than any of us on this board. They have basically had 4 years to build this team to the point where they were one win from getting into the Super Bowl. Look where this team was when they took over. How many solid players did they inherit? Not many. Can our defense be better? Absolutely! Do I wish we had more stud players on defense...ala Tampa Bay for example? Sure. Who wouldn't? They had no real foundation on which to build. They have had to build that foundation. Tampa Bay lacked one piece. A QB. They got him and they won the SB. KC...pretty much the same. They lacked one piece...a QB...and they got him and made two SB's. The Bills needed so much more and have gradually gotten there. They got their QB and are building the team around him. So...Yes...I do trust the front office. Whoever they draft, I trust that they are making the best decision based on the information they have and the team as a whole.

I don't look at it as a commentary on teaching per se. It's more of an observation that for some, they may have knowledge and understanding of something...but are unsuccessful doing it themselves. In this case making Losman perhaps a better teacher of QBs than being a QB himself. A corallary is that they teach those who can. I admire Losman for pursuing the sport in a way he can successfully contribute.

As George Bernard Shaw said: "Those who can do, those who cannot teach."

I think it's great the OP got to attend this event. How many of the rest of us bought tickets to the draft? So...glad that he offered to share any nuggets he may have gleaned from the event.

Hated when we picked Maybin. I'm a Penn State alum and fan...but I knew he was going to be a bust. Too young for the pros. Good artist, though.

1. Agree with you at Safety. I really thought/hoped they'd resign Marlowe. 2. I thought they'd bring in a veteran corner as well. Perhaps the price was too high. I expect them to draft one since that is a deep position this year. 3. I suspect DL positions were too pricy. They know they're getting star back. Edge is likely a target early in the draft. 4. I think they will still draft OL this draft at some point, or bring in undrafted free agents. They like their competition on the oline and they are bringing back all the starters from last year. 5. With the depth at WR in this draft, teams are likely looking to get younger before they pick up a vet. Darron Lee hasn't distinguished himself in the league. Bojo had one good year.

Harrison Philips looked and sounded so enthused about the gray. 😆

First four picks have a good chance to be QBs. Definitely the first 3. That leaves two teams maximally to pick a non QB ahead of the Dolphins, so Pitts could fall to them. If not, they'll have their choice of top receivers. They could also go Edge. If they are going all in on Tua this year, getting him the best offensive weapons would be a priority.

I've seen mocks with a Tackle going to Cinci. I do think taking Pitts there would be the smart move for Cinci and I hope they nab him before the Dolphins.

That's possible. WR has been forecasted for them in every mock thus far. WR is deep in this draft, though. Give then Pitts and Gesicki and they are pulling a NE move.

Miami is going after Pitts at TE.

Lincoln had that philosophy. He said: "I don't like that man. I must get to know him better."

Happy Birthday, Coach! I gift you with a Super Bowl trophy. Bad news is there is some assembly required.

She was just carrying it for a friend.

I agree largely with what you said. If the Bills reacted the way many on this board react when it comes to free agency, we'd be the Jets.

I think Star's return...especially if he returns in good form...will help our D line as is. Players will be able to play their natural positions rather than having to fill in at 1T. Having said that, I would presume Edge will not be neglected in the draft. Beane will add a FA if one is available and affordable. He doesn't want any glaring holes in any area when the draft is here, so he doesn't have to reach for a position of need. Star's return will also have an impact on our line backer play. A key this year will be staying healthy.

That was the first visual that popped into my mind when the OP posed the question. This is what prodded Belichick to go crazy in free agency.

Beane said yesterday they wanted to get Roberts back but he got better money from Houston.

Just not in the AFC.
