What is solid vs good vs bad? I think fans of a team always overstate average guys as solid, like a Milano. If he was on MIA we would not call him solid.
I think White, Hyde, Poyer are easy solid players.
Davis is a ? given he was out last year.
All three of our LB's are questionable. Not many around the league would call any of them solid.
Hughes has seen better days, Kyle is on the tail end of his career. Shaq has been a disappointment thus far. Then Star has seen his play decline as of late. So how many of them are solid? Could be all 4 or could be none.

Arm strength is an overrated factor in QB selection.
I would not say that. I think its more that a strong arm alone wont make you a good QB. Just like being smart wont make up for lack of arm strength. Each can help hide other things but you need a bit of both.

Brady does have good arm strength. The "draft profile" myth of Brady being so nonathletic lives on. Watch the ESPN sports science on him. Shows he is much fatser and stronger etc than people try to claim.

I've actually seen more of him than 30 minutes. He is actually that good. He is like Russell Wilson and Johnny Manziel mixed together.
I do agree that any team that tanks to get the number one player isn't a team I want to watch. I'm not sure on his desire to finish college. He is very smart and faith oriented. He may graduate or he may leave early. I don't think money is what motivates him or his family. And yes it is me, Tua
Russell Manziel, Johnny Willson, Johnell Wilziel, Russohnny Mansell
Why would we want that?

You must not have heard of this thing called a “salary cap”. Teams only have a certain amount of money every year to pay their players. With 53 players on an active roster, you need to try to spend the money evenly. The Bills addressed a few of their needs via free agency this offseason and now are reaching their cap limit. The top wide receivers that you brought up were paid handsomely and were never an option in Buffalo. Thankfully there’s thing called the “NFL Draft” that allows teams to draft players coming out of college for more realistic contracts
What's interesting? The #Bills have the least amount of actual cash/payroll being paid in the NFL. Meaning they could have actual cash to spend. They are also 8th in the NFL now in cap space after Richie Incognito.

Allen Robinson available
Football Gods: "There ya go Bills
Bills: "Nah, thanks though
Paul Richardson Available
Football Gods: "What about this guy?"
Bills: No
Football Gods: "I'll make the Packers release Jordy Nelson for you. How about it?"
Bills: "No"
Football Gods: "Cameron Meredith?"
Bills: "No, we're good"
Football Gods: "Just made Dez Bryant available for you. Come on"
Bills: "No, leave us alone"
Bills: Why does everyone think we need WR help? Dont they know how good Zay Jones and Kelvin Benjamin are? Who needs depth past those guys and even so we have Andre Holmes and Brandon Reilly. Just signed Kaelin Clay and Rod Steater. Tell me a better group of WR's in the arena league. Wait, what league is this again...

Interest in Bryant can't be ruled out -- because the Bills have a need at wide receiver. They have invested resources in Zay Jones (drafted in the second round last year) and Kelvin Benjamin (acquired in a trade for third- and seventh-round picks last season), but the results left something to be desired. The Bills lost Deonte Thompson and Jordan Matthews in free agency, so they could use some veteran help. -- Mike Rodak

Why was he the most crooked player in college history? Genuinely asking, Cam was one of the few players I never did any research on.
Stole a laptop. Dad was busted trying to get paid by whatever school he chose - think he was asking for $100K. No one knows how much Cam and his dad actually got paid but most believe they did.

Not sure what it will cost. But do you have to try?

The broncos signed Keenum and are rumored to still covet a QB. kelly was a top QB prospect going into his senior year, but injuries and more off the field problems caused him to fall off. I think he is the QB in waiting there which leaves another spot for the Bills to trade up with.
He was never a top prospect....

Ha ha, you don’t actually believe that do you?!? Do you think that the GM of an NFL team is sitting with his scouting staff and trying to figure out which avenue will best sell tickets?!? You think that’s what was happening?? I don’t believe that anyone could possibly believe that to be the case. It’s beyond absurd.
That was Russ Brandon job.
Whaley was good at some things and not good at others. Especially not good at building a full roster. Better suited for scouting role.

I think it is human nature or maybe just the nature of message board posters. But the current regime always has a plan, is doing things right, etc. We make excuses for them and say be patient. We blame past regimes that we used to say the same things about. Once they are gone they sucked and we are lucky to be rid of them. The new regime has to fix all of their mistakes.
Nix inherited a mess and was incredible. Then he sucked and Whaley had to clean up his mess because he actually sucked. Then Whaley was a god and was just stuck with bad coaches. Now Whaley was horrendous just look at all the players he brought in. The new guys have to get rid of them all because he was so bad. It was Ralph''s fault. No it was all Russ Brandon. Overdorf is the one. On and on. Cycle repeat.

Based on the stats Landry has over 200 more receptions than Sammy & 1,000 more yards. How could you possibly say Watkins is better than him; my god.
Dont you get it. Its not what they actually do on the field that counts. Its what they could do or you think they could do. And the Bills drafted him so he is obviously better.

Buffalo Bills general manager Doug Whaley saw Stanford quarterback Kevin Hogan and Cal quarterback Jared Goff on back-to-back days last week for their respective pro-day workouts.
Goff is considered a potential top-10 pick, while Hogan's draft party might drag into Day 3 (Rounds 4-7). That speaks more to overall talent than the learning curve each faces at the pro level, though. Where the latter is concerned, Whaley gives the nod to Hogan, not only over Goff, but over any quarterback in the draft -- at least as it pertains to the Bills.
"Is Hogan the most pro ready?" Whaley said on Monday at the NFL Annual Meeting in Boca Raton, Fla., according to The Post-Standard. "I would say for us probably because he runs the same system we run. For everybody else, I can't say that."

Irrelevant how many teams. These numbers are insane and thata with injuries to sammy Benjamin and others for extended time.
Yep - not a "bumpy ride" for these guys. A ton of success in that draft. You have basically 4 guys with 4K rec yards. In 2015 you only have Amari Cooper on track for that. In 2016 only Michael Thomas. Only D Hopkins from the 2013 draft did it.

We don't have the talent he benefited from in Cincy here (yet).
A group of AJ Green, Marvin Jones, Mohammed Sanu, Tyler Eifert, Jeremy Hill, and Gio Bernard can make poor look average and make average look good.
Yet he still threw for under 200 or less yds in all three of his starts. Dalton only did that once that season.
-
One a positive note - look at the guys picked ahead of Zay. I think Davis, Williams and Ross were all top 10 picks and did not do jack.

I'm quite sure they also called Jerry Rice a bust those 1st 2 years in San Fran were brutal for him, he dropped many passes also so we know that can change, it just needs to click for him and it doesn't help that we have a glorified runningback throwing to him.
Yeah I remember that game his rookie year when he caught for like 250 yards in one game. Everyone called him a bust.
And in that second year when he had like 5 150 yard games. What a bust.

To put that in perspective Zay had like 300 yds all year...

Every QB in the NFL and likely every QB in college football can throw that ball.
