  1. This is one that baffles me. I liked Dansby years ago. But then again, I liked Ted Hendricks years ago. I thought we were looking for speed, speed and more speed at LB.
  2. Here is Gabriel's take on Manziel when he came out: 'If I had to compare Manziel to another NFL quarterback I would say he is part Wilson, part Brees and part Brett Favre" LMFAO. Do you respect that?
  3. "The quotes are anonymous, however they may very well be planted to throw others off. Really can't trust anything except straight news this close to the draft" I would stress that you make an exception for Bob McGinn. He recently retired from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, but as easily been one of the most skilled and respected newspaper writers of this past generation. I always look forward to reading McGinn's draft material, as no one, yes no one, is better connected around the league. He is a must read this time of year and in upcoming columns will post about each position group.
  4. Thank you for the posts Norwood For Wall of Fame and 1billsfan. The "We are doomed" had their day, glad to see reasoned posters are prevailing. The beauty of drafting is that it is an inexact science. No one knows which one of Rosen, Darnold, Allen and Mayfield will be busts, but history has shown that at least 2 will, and they probably aren't the ones you are thinking of now.
  5. Gabriel is a clown, easily my least favorite "expert" Gabriel on Johnny Manziel in 2014: "If I had to compare Manziel to another NFL quarterback I would say he is part Wilson, part Brees and part Brett Favre. It obviously remains to be seen if he will have the success of those players."
  6. I wouldn't lose sleep over Jeremy Hill. The Bengals thought so much of him that they drafted Joe Mixon in the second round to replace him. Have you watched him run the last two years? 3 speeds- Slow, slower, slowest. As far as a Corey Dillon comp? I don't see it. Dillon was a beast!! Incredible production, a work horse back for many seasons,. Hill had a phenomenal half season as a rookie and has not been any more than average since. Not to mention that New England's offense has evolved quite a bit since then 2006.
  7. Love your comments about Kyle Williams!
  8. I think I'd rather have them sign Eddie Robinson, at least he can be a "coach on the field"........
  9. Is this real life?
  10. I am incredibly pleased with Beane. A witch? I might have used a different word, but I feel you. Just don't call him the dreaded "Master Poker Player" that so many on here called Tom Donahoe during his reign with the Bills.
  11. That's a salary given to average backup Qb's and certainly McCarron has the potential to offer much more.
  12. Well he is phenomenal on tape and at the combine. Anyone wanting more information on Vander Esch might enoy reading this. Urlacher isn't a bad comp. http://www.ktvb.com/article/sports/ncaaf/boise-state-football/nfl-combine-the-buzz-builds-around-leighton-vander-esch/277-525301521
  13. LOL., My bad, I glossed over it. I guess I am denial that after all that Beane has done, some people think we might not take a QB.
  14. Who said they should use the number 12 pick on a LB?
  15. Vander Esch absolutely crushed the combine. He WILL be a first round pick
  16. Introducing: Leighton Vander Esch http://www.nfl.com/draft/2018/profiles/leighton-vander esch?id=2560232 LEIGHTON VANDER ESCH
  17. Thank God! All these silly posts about trading for this guy or that guy can end. The Bills were patient, all good things come to those who wait! Having a QB roster of: Rosen, McCarron and Peterman next year is pretty good in my book. Need I add..."Trust The Process..."
  18. Giving up a third round pick for Brissett is just not necessary. Beane and McDermott, etc. worked hard to accumulate these picks, no need to toss them away. There are still free options out there.
  19. Good point, but I guess I was being rhetorical. These pro days are orchestated to such a great degree, it is RARE that a players strengths aren't highlighted and weaknesses are minimized. Teddy really must have **** the bed, because at the time no one could even sugar coat it.
  20. Has anyone ever had a bad pro day? Just asking.
  21. I have watched this, Waldman is always worth listening too. Thee are so many talking heads spinning nonsense about the draft and particularly the QB's. I find it worthwhile to cut through the nonsense and seek out the opinions of those who are actually experienced at doing film study of QB's. It seems like those that actually study film- prefer Josh Rosen overwhelmingly. This includes Waldman, Josh Norris and the God father of film study himself Greg Cosell.
  22. Mead are you hitting the wine a bit too much tonight? Maybe it's time to call it a night.
