  1. Now watch. It will be 3-5 years before we see OT in a playoff game.😂
  2. Love their write ups on the players and their player rankings seems pretty good, but their predictive board seems off a bit. Try using player ranking instead of predictive board. You may see a bit of difference. 🤔
  3. I am not saying he didn't do his 1/11th. He did great in a limited sample size and hardly any wear on his body at the end of a season. I Was trying to find an old article back from the playoffs that said pretty much what I did and if I come across it, I'll post the link. But an ESPN article stated that Bates had a 93% pass win rate but only a 59% rush win rate (link below). I'd like a little more balance. I love having him, it just seems most people think he's the missing link and I don't agree (at least at this point). He was the mightiest of the midgets we had on the team and that wasn't a high bar to reach. I still think we need to draft a t/g that has some meat to him. At just over 300lbs, seems pretty lean to me for a starting guard. Weren't people unhappy when Feliciano came in lighter than expected and he was still heavier than Bates? https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/33586248/chicago-bears-sign-buffalo-bills-og-ryan-bates-offer-sheet-source-says%3fplatform=amp
  4. I'm with you for the most part on this. Love the Bates signing and was all for it. But he's an average run blocker (too light in the pants) but he's a very good pass blocker. Hasn't played a full season as a starter. Will he wear down? Our line got better when he came in, but, Dawkins also got healthier around the same time and started playing to expectations. Bates played better than Ford, Feliciano and Boetteger, but that's not hard to do. Made less mistakes. Also the OL change how they played. Improved running game helped as well (chicken or the egg.🤔). He's also currently our backup center. If we didn't extend Morse or he retired, I think Bates was plan A. Heaven forbid something happens to Morse and we have to shift him to center. Then what? Ford to RG? I'm hopeful that Ford can improve with a new coach, but, not sure I want to have him as the only option. Boetteger? Have not really heard much of how he's doing after his injury. Are we sure if he will even be ready to play this season or when. Still want a T/G maybe 4th rnd or later though.
  5. I like Gordon in the 1st. But if they go WR, I like Woolen in the 2nd. Late swing, 7th or UDFA Josh Thomson out of Texas. Decent speed 4.43, mainly a zone corner though, but could play safety.
  6. Not sure which simulator your using or if you are trying different ones. Personally I like the NFL Mock Draft Database as it doesn't use one person or one sites player rankings or opinions. Not perfect but uses more data points.
  7. I'm not ruling out a RB as you can see in my mocks. My comment was in response to a RD1 or 2 and based upon who we already have on the roster. RD 1 rb? No thanks. None worth it. RD 2, Hall will be gone before 57 and don't think the value is there to move up above 45 to get him. (Not worth giving up a 3rd to move up). Walker is in my opinion no better than what we have other than a little faster (poor blocker). Rather stick with Moss and Motor. Value might be there in rd 3&4 if we want to try and upgrade Jones or Johnson with someone that has a little more speed and a longer term solution. But based upon who we have already, I could see them taking an additional OL, WR, CB, S or LB over a RB depending on who is available. Just wouldn't be shocked if they didn't draft a RB this year. All a matter of opinion. 😉
  8. My opinion, absolutely. Motor, Moss, Johnson and Jones are already on the roster. I actually wouldn't be surprised if we didn't draft a RB at all this year. Next year I think would be the year to go RB. Motor has earned his spot in my opinion and deserves this year to prove it. As to Allen running less, multiple factors there. Better OL, Better Coaching and Better WR all would lead to less running for Allen.

  12. Do you play the lottery? About the same chance of getting it right. But still fun do dream. So if I get 1 right, I feel like I won.😁. For some of us (me), I like them because I don't really watch college ball. It gives me a reason to research players, see who else people mention for additional research. All in all for some of us older fans, I think they are good and keeps us busy. Kind of like a hobby this time of year.😉
  13. TDN. Trades offered by that team, not my offers. I think they are a little off but who am I to say no.😉. Would be an excellent draft in my opinion though. 25. Traded for 37 & 68 Texans 37. C.

  14. Nope. Might be his plan... He doesn't want Jones either as his QB. Between Feliciano and Brieda blocking, Jones may not make it to week 3. Easy way out. Thank goodness he's got Tuhrod and Webb on the roster. That Diabolical Daboll...🤣🤣🤣
  15. Well, looks like you were correct on Breida.😉

  17. Just depends on where the information comes from. This one says Rashad White has the best hands in the class... One side of the Pond to the other.😁 https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Rachaad-White-RB-ArizonaState
  18. I agree. Considering Williams and Feliciano are both gone as well as the uncertainty of Bates and Boetteger it kind of leaves us vulnerable on the OL. I am hopeful that Bates returns, but still need a starter at RG. Could see a 2nd rnd pick for OL at this point.
  19. Agree. Plus he would be one of the Top QB's in the NFC. LOL.....
  20. I like it. Plus it will give all the new Biils (Brownie) fans someone they are familiar with on the sidelines.😁
  21. I don't think people don't want it. I personally don't think he's worth a 1st, probably won't make it to our second and I wouldn't trade up to get him. MAYBE if he's there for our 2nd, I would think about it, but would depend on who else is available at that time.
  22. PFN. 25. Traded for 32&66 Detroit 32. Traded 32&185 for 40&72 Seattle 40. C. Watson WR ND State 57. T. Woolen CB UTSA 66. B. Smith LB Penn State 72. R. White RB Arizona State 89. J.

  23. Good. We need a backup QB.😂
  24. If Edmunds is the worst, the I am REALLY going to love this defense...😁
  25. Due to inflation, it's now 25 cents.🤣
