    If Star can consistently command double teams, it will make that DL deadly.  I really hope Trent Murphy is healed and ready to contribute at LDE.

     

    Good player on a bad contract. Greg Gaines was a 5th round pick last weekend and he can do that jump for peanuts but I understand why they signed him and I'm not complaining.

    I think if we hadn't signed Yeldon people would like the pick more. Before Yeldon we had two old running backs and I thought it was a big need that we would address in the middle rounds. When we signed Yeldon I thought they were going to leave the position alone, so I was surprised when we took Singletary. But we didn't have any kind of long term plan there so I understand it.

     

    Was surprised too but Beane said he stuck to the board and took BPA and with Gore and McCoy not being here next year I can see the reasoning. I was hoping we would go RB in the mid rounds and I would've been elated with Singletary or Henderson. Glad one of them will be on the team.

  3. I didn't like N'Keal Harry during the run up to the Draft and the Patriots drafting him confirmed it for me. When's the last time they drafted a WR and it worked out? They're the Anti-Steelers in that regard. 

     

    On the flip side I loved Diontae Johnson during the lead up to the Draft and the Steelers drafting him confirmed to me he's going to be a stud. LOL!

    Yup. Been saying this too.  Gotta have a 2nd year progression like Trubisky.

     

    Also, like every other running QB, Allen's rushing TD's should be included when evaluating his season.  He accounted for 18 TD's with his arm and legs.   As his career goes on I would hope his passing TD's increase while his rushing TD's decrease a bit.  

     

    Hoping for 24 passing TD's, 10 rushing TD's this year and for him to get to the 60% completion pct threshold. He's so aggressive he feels like he's cheating the system if he dumps it off into the flat but we're going to need him to start hitting that so we're not in 3rd and long situations.

    The thing that I've pointed out in both the Goff and Trubisky cases is the dramatic shift in approach between years 1 and 2.  In both cases, the respective teams:

     

    - brought in a creative, offensive-minded play-caller as HC.  LAR hired McVay; Chicago hired Nagy.

    - fortified their OL as much as possible with draft picks and FA signings. Rams brought in Whitworth, Sullivan, and Blythe in a single offseason. Bears drafted Daniels.

    - stocked the offense with speed and playmaking ability.  The Rams acquired Woods, Watkins, Kupp, Everett, and Reynolds. The Bears brought in Gabriel, Robinson, Burton, and Anthony Miller.

     

    The Bills have taken the Bears-Rams Lite approach.  They stuck with an OC that they believe can be a creative play-caller, and tried to revamp both the OL and WR group in a single offseason.  I fear that they have fallen short of either Chicago or LA's approach to the WR position, as I don't feel super-confident that Beasley/Brown will have anywhere near the effect of the other teams' additions.

     

    That said, if they can help Allen make even a 30% improvement in his play from his rookie season, you could see a much different WR group in 2020 that they'd hope would help him make the leap.

     

    Great points. I'd add that 2020 WR class looks historic. I know I shouldn't be saying that 12 months out but there are some great talents in next year's class.

    Josh vs. Mitch vs. Goff as rookies.  In general, they're all very similar, though Allen arguably made the most of his situation in comparison to the other two, which isn't all that surprising considering that he's got more physical ability than them.

     

    Thing that they had going for them is their HC are pretty good offensive coaches. I like Daboll though but if our 2019 season looks like the second half and Allen impresses he's going to be a HC for someone next year.

  7. ________ combines elite size, speed and explosiveness into a productive, versatile ________ package that will have evaluators salivating. ________ has posted high-impact production over the last two seasons and he still has room to get bigger and better. He will make mental mistakes and his instincts are subpar, but he has an ability to mitigate those issues with his athletic ability. ________ can play in any alignment at any ________ spot and has All-Pro potential no matter where he lands.

     

    "Good luck with your player comp on this one. They don't come like him. I don't think there has ever been a ________ that has had his size and speed. You're better off comping him with a basketball player." -- NFC regional scout

    That would be soooo nice.

    But...I think 8 or 9 wins and a positive growth season would also be positive improvement and reason to stay the course. The team has to show they are trending up and be well coached. I like Warrow's many points-- there is a cohesiveness that I never recall at OBD--as much so or even more so than the glory years, of course, winning keeps the dogs at bay and proves the process...so let's hope that starts to occur...

     

    We were at 6 wins with an awful roster. Josh Allen needs to stay healthy but we got to get to 10 wins this year. Need a jump.
