It's interesting that Dion had to lose 40 pounds to get down to 330. When the Bills took him from Temple he was playing at 315 at guard. It's good that he's committed to his diet, but he could stand to lose another 10-15 lbs imo. He was a well above average LT during his rookie season of 2017 playing at the reduced weight.

Can someone make this guy go away?

Came across this earlier today and thought I'd share. Not sure a resolution is coming by Monday night, if at all https://www.nexttv.com/news/how-ready-is-charter-to-let-disney-and-espn-walk-its-already-funneling-monday-night-football-fans-to-fubo-and-youtube-tv

Not very in demand it would seem

Except that Josh was bigger and a superior athlete with better intangibles coming out. He also played in a more pro-style offense at Wyoming than Corral at Ole Miss, who was propped up by Lane Kiffin's one read attack

Yeah, I live in Charlotte and follow the Panthers pretty closely. Admittedly Corral hasn't had a huge body of work (and he got injured his rookie year), but I have seen all of his action in preseason games. He has honestly looked completely lost every time he's on the field. The book on him coming out was great arm and athleticism, but also lacking in many of other attributes necessary to be a functional qb. So far that has proven to be highly accurate. He played in a very simplistic offense in college and has struggled mightily adapting. Corral panics and gets happy feet in the face of pressure or when he doesn't understand what the defense is showing. He'll give up on plays prematurely and deliver inaccurate passes because of poor mechanics. From my viewpoint he is just overwhelmed and lacks confidence. I guess some team will take a chance on him because there's no harm in trying, but I don't see him turning into a successful reclamation project.

Matt Corral is not close to being a good prospect. He's been absolutely atrocious in every opportunity he got with the Panthers. Zero pocket presence and accuracy and terrible at reading NFL defenses. Hard pass

Same issue here

What is with the running back obsession around here?

And right after drafting a DE in the 1st round 😡

Huh?

I think Rudolph is better than Kyle Allen. Not saying much I know, and their career stats are similar. He throws a better deep ball for sure. Grasping for straws here

This is 100 percent correct. Buffalo is one of the best hockey markets in the country and always #1 in the ratings. The team is becoming good again. If Pegula does sell it would be to a local interest. The idea of the Sabres leaving Buffalo is way more of a nothingburger than the Bills prior to the stadium agreement. And a Bills relocation was always highly unlikely itself.

Yes, as in Burrow, Brady, and Wilson (at the time a franchise QB). Had those guys not been around, their teams would've never made it to the Super Bowl anyway. If your team does have a stud at quarterback, a highly paid top tier RB is a luxury but hardly a necessity. There is almost no circumstance from my view where I would ever consider parting with high draft picks or giving huge money to a running back.

I am a big fan of day drinking as well

How many of these guys have been the difference makers in their team reaching the Super Bowl? Exactly zero. It's not hard to figure out why. The only teams that foolishly waste big money on the position are the ones who lack a long term, franchise qb. Without one of those, you're not winning anything regardless of how good your running back room may be.

He's shown very little, and the poor decision to get out of his lane resulted in the long return by the Bears. I don't see a reason for Shorter to be on the 53 other than the Bills spent a 5th on him

Lol I was literally thinking the same thing earlier

Chris Brown and Steve Tasker are pretty bad. Brown is passable I guess, but Tasker is an absolutely awful listen. He's stunk as a sideline reporter, color analyst, and now radio host

Of course it is. I just don't think trading for Jonathan Taylor is the missing ingredient to Miami actually winning a chip, because of the reasons I previously mentioned.

To add to my previous post, it makes even less sense when you have an injury prone QB who may be one bad hit away from retirement and an iffy oline. If those question marks didn't exist then maybe you could make a more compelling case to make the trade. I mean, what is wrong with Mostert, Wilson, and now Achane? Seems Miami was able to run it effectively at times last year and McDaniel too often got away from it. It's rare imo that a RB is going to put a team over the top, and I certainly don't think Taylor would do that for the Dolphins. If Miami does in fact make this deal it seems they are headed down the Rams path where anything less than an immediate Super Bowl victory will be a failure because they are mortgaging their long term future.

Wouldn't mind it either. Taylor is no doubt a great player, but it just seems like bad juju to continually build your team only through blockbuster trades. They routinely disregard cost controlled assets which is usually not a way to sustain your franchise for long term success. For every Tyreek Hill there is a Bradley Chubb. I think Miami's reckless approach is eventually going to burn them, and there is no guarantee of short term success either. Bottom line is that giving up a 1st AND paying a big contract to a RB would be a highly questionable decision

I can see a 16-13 type of game going either way. This matchup has all the makings of an ugly slugfest

Allen was fine. One of the only guys not to worry about
