  1. I think Humphries could be had as he's an expiring contract anyways. I'd rather just pursue him in free agency if we must though. Godwin is probably near untouchable though. I imagine they envision him being the #2 WR there for a long time.
  2. Does anyone have a video of the play?
  3. Update after Week 3: Josh Allen - 60.5 (28 out of 33) Top 5 Offense: Chris Ivory - 78.0 (5 out of 57) John Miller - 64.8 (25 out of 72) LeSean McCoy - 63.0 (33 out of 57) Jordan Mills - 62.3 (43 out of 72) Dion Dawkins - 61.1 (45 out of 72) Bottom 5 Offense (1 being the lowest): Marcus Murphy - 45.8 (57 out of 57) Ryan Groy - 42.3 (36 out of 36) Robert Foster - 50.7 (103 out of 109) Kelvin Benjamin - 52.9 (97 out of 109) Zay Jones - 53.6 (94 out of 109) Top 5 Defense: Lorenzo Alexander - 90.8 (4 out of 101) Jerry Hughes - 82.8 (8 out of 101) Micah Hyde 79.4 (10 out of 81) Matt Milano - 77.9 (15 out of 86) Harrison Phillips - 74.9 (30 out of 113) Bottom 5 Defense: Tremaine Edmunds - 53.4 (58 out of 86) Taron Johnson - 56.2 (91 out of 105) Rafael Bush - 56.3 (89 out of 105) Phillip Gaines - 60.5 (71 out of 105) Eddie Yarbrough - 61.8 (64 out of 101)
  4. He's the only one on the MNF crew that I CAN stand lol.
  5. Hopefully this pass distribution is an anomaly and not an attempt to avoid throwing to his left since he's still working on his mechanics when throwing that way, but we'll see. If this becomes a trend, defenses will definitely take notice. Edit: I say this as one of the people that's been high on Allen as a draft prospect since his junior year. I love him and definitely love what I saw this week.
  6. I could easily see all of them losing between Week 3 (Tampa) and Week 4 (everyone else). I went with Kansas because they play last in Week 4 and I think they have a slightly better chance than the other 3 teams.
  7. They have Allen Robinson and a rookie that hasn't done anything yet. And last year they had literally nothing; their leading receivers were Kendall Wright and Josh Bellamy with 600 and 300 receiving yards.
  8. I'm still a fan of Tanner myself, but I do think there's reason to be cautious with a guy that couldn't make the active roster of the team with probably the worst WR corps in the league last season. And it still isn't very good this season either and he's still on the practice squad.
  9. https://thedraftnetwork.com/2018/04/20/ledyards-final-2018-nfl-draft-positional-rankings-quarterbacks/ He has Allen ranked as the 5th QB prospect in the link below
  10. It's not really. That's why he was the lowest rated QB in the league in ESPN's QBR and PFF's weekly grades (I'm pretty sure he was...if my math is correct, they gave him a 39.04 for Week 2.) For reference, Tyrod is currently the lowest rated QB in the league at a 46.9 on PFF; Allen wasn't even close to that in Week 2.
  11. I don't think a position change is necessary for him and I'm not sure he's athletic enough to make it as a WR anyways. But his injury history will probably prevent him from having an NFL career if I had to guess. He's got to be like one more concussion away from retiring at this point.
  12. Ledyard has been a draft analyst for awhile now and has worked for a lot of reputable publications and now runs his own NFL Draft-focused website. You don't have to have played in the NFL to understand football. If you personally broke the film down and wrote in-depth articles about what players do and don't do correctly for yeras, then yes, it would be like him.
  13. He did post 9 different videos breaking Allen's start down.
  14. I'll have you know he's the 2nd highest rated offensive player on the team on PFF right now lol.
  15. Yeah, it was a simple mistake to make. Seems like they had only partially completed their updates at the time. The only reason I suspected it was because I knew that Allen had gotten exactly a 73.3 in Week 1 and figured it was safe to assume he didn't get the exact same grade two weeks in a row.
  16. UB could lose every game from here on out and they'd still probably finish with more wins than the Bills.
  17. I suspected that Allen was only ranked as #2 on the team because the numbers hadn't updated, and it turns out that was correct. To update (only counting players that have played enough snaps to earn a ranking): Listed in the following format: Name - Score - Positional Rank Top 5 Offense: John Miller - 67.1 (23 out of 71) Logan Thomas - 64.2 (21 out of 65) Vlad Ducasse - 64.1 (26 out of 71) Jordan Mills - 63.8 (36 out of 70) Dion Dawkins - 63.2 (40 out of 70) Bottom 5 Offense (1 being the lowest): Marcus Murphy - 39.7 (53 out of 53) Ryan Groy - 41.8 (33 out of 33) Josh Allen - 50.7 (30 out of 32) Kelvin Benjamin - 53.7 (93 out of 107) Andre Holmes - 54.4 (89 out of 107) Top 5 Defense: Lorenzo Alexander - 87.6 (4 out of 99) Harrison Phillips - 75.1 (30 out of 111) Matt Milano - 73.7 (16 out of 85) Kyle Williams - 70.2 (44 out of 111) Tredavious White - 66.0 (45 out of 102) Bottom 5 Defense: Tremaine Edmunds - 33.0 (81 out of 85) Rafael Bush - 52.7 (91 out of 102) Star Lotulelei - 57.0 (80 out of 111) Jerry Hughes - 57.9 (67 out of 99) Eddie Yarbrough - 59.0 (64 out of 99)
  18. I would have to guess he's either (1) just frustrated with how much the team is struggling overall or (2) he has something else going on in his life and it's bleeding onto the football field. I mean, he's getting nearly 20 targets a game this year lol. They pretty much could not be throwing it his way more than they are.

  20. I know Rapoport has said that they're strictly releasing him because of his injury or whatever, but the initial reports were indeed that the team doctors suspected he had relapsed.
  21. Yesterday was basically why I was saying during the pre-season that I didn't view Edmunds as an upgrade over Preston Brown in the short-term. Certainly has a world of potential, but he's just not there yet. Brown was very unspectacular, but he was an okay starter; Edmunds isn't yet.
  22. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2795578-matt-millers-scouting-notebook-best-2019-draft-prospect-youve-never-heard-of?share=twitter Matt Miller's latest article about what he's hearing as well as his big board. Of particular importance to Bills fans, his top 32 includes: 12 defensive linemen 4 WRs 4 offensive linemen
  23. I support the idea of signing him but no significant free agent is gonna be like “Well the Bills have a really crappy team but they did sign Kaepernick to be a backup QB. I’ll go there.” Free agents will come if and only if Buffalo is willing to pay them a lot of money.
  24. I don't agree with everything in the OP, but I do agree that the Bills should draft another QB next offseason. Best case scenario, Allen is legit and Buffalo now has a starter and no backup. They should take a QB on Day 3 to be the backup at the very least.
  25. I agree that McBeane have a plan and that it was probably always a 3-4 year plan. I respect that and am willing to wait and see how next offseason goes since it will be a huge one for them considering the cap space they'll finally have available. HOWEVER, it's impossible to look at the moves that Beane has made as GM and not come away at least significantly nervous about him. Setting the draft picks aside since they're basically all TBD at the moment, here's a recap of pretty much all of the significant moves he's made: Sammy for Gaines/2nd: Will boil down to how Allen/Edmunds turn out (I can't remember which guy they used this pick to trade up for). It would obviously be nice right now to have a good WR though.Ragland for a 4th: TBDDarby for Matthews & Harrison Phillips: Looks like a loss, but depends on PhillipsRussell Bodine: Couldn't even beat out GroyCorey Coleman: Basically just lit $3 million on fire and are now paying him to play for the Patriots.McCarron: Sucks so bad that we're stuck with Peterman or the option of killing AllenBenjamin Trade: Looks awful right nowVontae: Signed for more (if I remember right) money than EJ Gaines (a good starter) and he's a healthy scratch.Trent Murphy: Looks bad/injury issuesStar: Was a bad signing from the get-go. Add in the fact that they moved Dareus' contract to have the ability to sign Star to an even worse contract...Ivory: one of the most expensive backup RBs in the league and he's not even the primary backup. It's a pretty horrible track record at the moment, and we're entrusting this guy to spend a ton of money this offseason.
