Gotcha. I thought the same. It’s just kind of surprising to me that after all these years they made a trade for Diggs which in hindsight wasn’t as good as it should have been(should have selected Jefferson) and failed to identity a guy they liked and went out and drafted. The fact they traded back and scooped up Coleman didn’t really inspire confidence in that pick.
-
So sounds like they should have traded up for Brian Thomas last year or at least drafted Mcconkey who is actually good. Would you rather have Coleman, Carter or Brian Thomas? The part that Beane is missing in all of this as he has failed to identify WRs in the draft since he has arrived. If Coleman flames out and he is the only Wr drafted in the top 3 rounds during Beane’s tenure then that is crazy.
-
But that’s been their go to statement since 2019. For some reason they tend to punt on WR. When is enough going to be enough? Even with Coleman they traded down for Christ sakes lol. It wasn’t like they identified and went and got their guy. And in that class I wanted Mcconkey who also already looks ahead of Coleman.

People saying we cannot criticize are ridiculous IMO. In truth we haven't won anything yet. Yes they have been exciting to watch and a good team but they have fallen short every time of reaching their goals. The 90s team did as well and they deserved criticism as well. Probably most deservingly on Marv Levy.
-
Agreed for some reason they just cannot scout the position hence the trade for Diggs in the first place.

Jeremy and Joe handled this well. I get Brandon might be annoyed by all the WR talk but it's justified IMO. The QB is set, the o-line is set, the RB are set, the TE are set. The only question marks come at the WR position. We lost 2 of our better WR not named Shakir from last year. We hope Coleman takes another step, we hope, Palmer takes another step, we hope Samuels takes another step. The position is a huge question mark and maybe it works out but it's clearly average at best to below average talent. I was very happy that they took the direction of going heavy on the defensive side and the defense is clearly a problem but I still was hoping for WR picked within their first 3 or 4 picks. Now we have Elijah Moore coming in for a visit which is nice so I don't get the freak out by Beane. If we are being real Beane has done a ***** job addressing WR over his stay. He has performed poorly when targeting and going and getting their WR that they liked. They screwed up last year by not going up and grabbing Brian Thomas, in 2023 they screwed up and didn't trade up and get their guy. There were multiple guys there that would have worked out but Addison was the guy I liked the most. 2022 they could have had Pickens or Watson and picked Elam a huge bust. In 2020 I really liked Justin Jefferson and low and behold he fell right where the Bills would have been picking. I know people will say trading for Diggs was the right move and it did work out to an extent but I have been firmly in the camp especially when Josh was younger to just drafting young WRs that Josh could grow with. It's always pissed me off listening to Beane be like well we don't draft high enough to get a player like Chase but they literally traded out of the Justin Jefferson pick and have been a few slots away from countless others. IMO Beane has been a massive failure in terms of building this WR room. That said maybe we win the Super Bowl regardless. Also I'll add so people know I would have stayed put in the second round and went Darius Alexander and Jaylin Noel or Kyle Williams. Tai Felton as another guy I thought maybe they could trade back into the end of the third and grab. Jalen Royals went in the fourth and Tory Horton went in the fifth. I don't get Beane saying there weren't any WRs with good grades available anywhere in the draft.

Bills 2nd Rnd pick in 2025 Draft : TJ Sanders - DT South Carolina

Yea but Qbs are way harder to judge. Also why not take multiple swings instead of putting all your eggs in one basket -
Bills 2nd Rnd pick in 2025 Draft : TJ Sanders - DT South Carolina
Rocbillsfan1 replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
Awful trade. Maybe an ok player but why trade up. So many players still available. I don’t get it -
Would like Harmon to fall to us but isn’t shaping up great. I do not like the safety’s or most of the corners except for Amos. Amos doesn’t seem like he is going to start right away over White though so Hoping they can get a DT or DE
-
I was listening to this one NFL mock draft podcast yesterday and it had them taking Emmanwori round 1 and Morrison round 2. No DE in the top 5 rounds. Only 1 DT taken. They picked an IOL high as well. Just completely head scratching and infuriating to listen to. Yea that would be awful. Guessing if something like this played out it would be them taking a DE, WR, and a safety or LB.
-
I agree I like Phillips but that would be my second DT. The Bills need one top end DT and then another within the first 4 picks. Anything else is a failure in this draft class. My ideal situation is a trade back in round 1 or 2 and getting extra picks in the top 100 to load up on the line, CB, and WR.

Who on this board would you choose to make our draft picks?
Rocbillsfan1 replied to Don Otreply's topic in The Stadium Wall
Me, just did a stock mock draft, no trades. 30.Harmon DT 56. Landon Jackson DE 62. Jayden Higgins WR 109. Jacob Parrish CB 132. CJ West DT 169. Jeffrey Bassa LB 170. Cobee Bryant CB 173. Jarquez Hunter RB 177. RJ Mickens S 206.Isaac Teslaa WR -
These mock draft simulators are like crack. Have been playing around with a few of them. It's nice doing different simulators since they have different ratings on players. Some of these mocks seem a little unrealistic especially with trade down scenarios where I've been getting Grant or Harmon in the low 30s like this one. All I know is I really want the Bills to somehow get 2 solid DT, at least 1 good edge maybe 2, double up on CBs, and then try to get WR, LB, IOL, TE, S also somewhere in there. 37.Harmon DL 56.Tyleik Williams DL 62.Landon Jackson Edge 68. JT Tuimoloau Edge 109. Jacob Parrish CB 120.Denzel Burke CB 140.Barrett Carter LB 163. Tai Felton WR 169. Cobee Bryant CB 170. Jeffrey Bassa LB 173. Seth McLaughlin IOL 177. Jaydon Blue RD 178. Jaylen Reed S 206. Isaac TeSlaa WR 215. Orone Gadsden TE 39. Kenneth Grant DL 56. Landon Jackson Edge 62. Darius Alexander DL 99. Dorian Strong CB 109. TJ Sanders DL 116. Tuten RB 132. Jack Sawyer Edge 135. Quincy Riley CB 169. Sebastian Castro S 170. Isaiah Bond WR 173. Jamon Dumas LB 177. Dillon Gabriel QB

Benford Extended 4 Years - 76 million
Rocbillsfan1 replied to Mikie2times's topic in The Stadium Wall
If Cook is going to be a headache or holdout for a huge contract I’m more than ok with trading him. Enjoy watching him play but he is not a top 5 RB. -
They are way behind. We were told that we’d be contacted in 01/25 and they don’t appear to be anywhere close. Annoying that they don’t take seniority under consideration. We have the cheapest tickets in the family section.

Thanks for the laugh it’s definitely because they are wussies

This has to be the worst take in all of Bills takes that I’ve ever heard.

Jonathan Martin and Incognito Bullygate back in the news
Rocbillsfan1 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
As some have mentioned I think we all know that one person or have that one friend who is extra and crude and loves just saying outlandish things just to try and get a laugh. Problem is you can pick your friends not your teammates. Richie is a guy that can rub a lot of people the wrong way while not actually meaning it. He probably struggles with thinking people just don’t understand him and believes that he isn’t a bad guy just misunderstood. Eric probably sees this in him and wants to go to bat for him but still he said all those things.its not a made up story. -
Jonathan Martin and Incognito Bullygate back in the news
Rocbillsfan1 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yea I’m like did Eric wood even read the article. Richie did everything we thought he did. Martin is just now saying he wishes he handled it better. Weird take by Eric Wood on this. I will say I’m not sure Richie was really bullying him from his own perspective. I think he enjoyed being let’s say colorful character. I think he really did think he was being funny or just engaging in playful banter. But at the end of the day he did and said all those things. He still needs to be held accountable either way. -
I really wanted Ladd but everyone said well he plays the same position as Shakir. Well at least we knew he was good. I don’t know if Coleman will ever pan out. Stop drafting for need, just draft the best players period.

Yup Marv got outcoached in all the biggest games and the same has happened to McDermott now.

Dalton Kincaid- why so underwhelming this season?
Rocbillsfan1 replied to Pete's topic in The Stadium Wall
Kincaid got no push on the fourth down play and then drops the ball for the game. Bills drafting in first round has been suspect for years
