KOKO NFL

The 3 options provided are too narrow and slanted. For example, the trade for a '3rd' round draft pick for many voters is not sufficient. If the option were for a '2nd' round draft pick you'd have a different result.

The fact that Josh leaves the pocket to run (for his life) likely slants the stats favorably for the Bills' OL.

Saying Allen choked is a bit harsh. Panicked at times may be more appropriate. He wasn't alone... OL needs help. DL couldn't get home and tackle when they needed to. Let's grow from this, draft well, and come back stronger! Go Bills!

I've heard all the talk that our second year MLB is a physical freak with size and speed. My eyes, however, tell me he's not tough or instinctive enough to be a good MLB, let alone a great one. IMO Beane and McDermott need to take a serious look at this position in the off season and upgrade. Perhaps Edmonds is better suited for OLB? Fans can speculate but only the coaching staff can make an educated guess. So... is Tremaine Edmunds the answer at MLB?

Frazier can't account for MLB Edmunds constantly mis-reading and missing tackles. Seems to me, he's lost out there and worse... plays soft. Not sure if he's an answer at one of the OLB spots but I've seen enough now to know he's not the answer at MLB.

Then he'd be an instant upgrade to our WR corp! 1-2 year deal if the price is right

Seriously? Only clairvoyant's dare reply to this post before the Combine ?

Took unnecessary and untimely penalties. Below average when asked to play defence. Okay, not great ST... Depth signing.

Brady gets the ball out faster than Smith, Theisman and almost every other QB playing the game today. That's why he'll continue to play until he can't. He's also uber competitive and despite his aw shucks demeanor will want to pad his HOF, GOAT status. It's fun to win (and, unfortunately, that's what Belichick and Pats organization does).

I agree. I saw the interview in question with Baker Mayfield, and have seen numerous others. I don't think he was being a "doosh". He stated his opinion in a civil, but disapproving way, in the context of studying all week to beat the rival Bengals - knowing his former coach had joined the Browns' cross state rivals to use his knowledge to defeat the rookie QB. Mayfield is ultra competitive (and talented). I watched most of the first half of the Browns win at Cincinatti. He was unbelievable - leading the Browns to 4 touchdowns in as many drives. Write it down, he is the next Drew Brees.

Good win today. Still a little early to anoint the kid as the Bills franchise QB. On the plus side: he's big, strong armed, and can run. On the "let's see" side: can he stay in the pocket when feeling pressure, dissect defences, thread the needle + throw receivers open. We should know better what we have after this season and into 2019. Go Bills...

I think everyone agrees we need to develop Josh Allen to see what we have in him. The issue isn't whether to start him again, it's a matter of when! The original plan was to bring in AJ McCarron and have the kid learn for a year. That plan was dropped when AJ was jettisoned, Peterman fizzled and, in the absence of any other alternative, Allen started. This to rather predictable uneven results (for a rookie most have judged still very raw.) Let's say JA is picked to start in two weeks against a tough Jaguars D and plays poorly. The hometown fans will be screaming for "Barkley" given his inaugural success. I don't believe that extra pressure will be good for the kid's development. (And he does need to develop: make quicker reads, stay longer in the pocket; improve his accuracy). Starting Barkley for another game or two, or until the veteran struggles, will benefit the kid in numerous ways. And allow the team, and offensive players in particular, to gain some momentum.

No...100% speculation and conjecture. You did however suck me in with a provocative subject.

That's why we need to trade our projected top 3 pick to collect more picks where the top offensive players will be and to fill numerous holes. Don't lose any sleep, we will lose to the Jets. I suspect a touchdown underdog.

You mean Brandon Beane.

What character?

KB not tough enough to play TE

Pass hit KB in the worst possible spot... his (so called) hands.

Zay Jones is starting to play ball, making catches. For all the drops last year, and his off-season stuff, I give the kid credit for turning it around. May not be a # 1 (or even a #2) but looks like he could be a productive #3 and a future piece of a winning puzzle.

Arizona's supporting cast on offense is equally inept as the Bills. So, the comeback against a so called poor opponent, and any observations drawn along the way are fair, if still a relatively small sample size. (e.g eight games in). What I observed today was that Josh Rosen was calm in the pocket when it mattered, was very accurate, and remained poised under duress. If he gets an offensive line and fills out a bit he's going to be very good. Josh Allen appears to have already filled out. Will he be calm in the pocket and develop accuracy? We shall see.

Josh Rosen, the 'other' Josh, led a dramatic Arizona comeback today to pull out a win 18-15 against SF. (I watched the 4th Quarter because I am in a football pool and the game mattered). Down 15-3 in the 4th Quarter, JR was accurate and stayed poised, under duress, in the pocket. Dare I say, unlike the Bills' strong-armed, mobile, yet skiddish and inaccurate rookie, Josh Allen. Did the Bills take the wrong Josh? From the evidence I've seen to date... regrettably, yes.

I don't have a problem with Daboll either. I think his qualifications certainly exceed his current players on the offensive side of the ball. Am hoping he will be kept for year two to build some continuity. Having said that, it's unclear whether McDermott and Beane have the acumen to provide the O with impact starters in the upcoming draft and free agency. 2018 was a poor year for them. 2019 will be make or break for the FO with a lot riding on Josh Allen's progress.

This.

Remember the Super Bowl years? The cure is WINNING. Fortunately, the Bills had Bill Polian as GM, the brilliant architect of notable drafts and trades. As the team began to win, more and more players 'wanted' to play in Buffalo, and in front of one of the greatest fan bases in pro sports. Unfortunately, the jury is out on Beane and McDermott as player evaluators. They've made their jobs tougher by their personnel moves or lack thereof. They will be spared their jobs by the Pegulas because of the promise of numerous draft picks in 2019 and the extra money they'll have to spend. It's possible some of the picks and acquisitions will pan out. But after multiple misses in the draft and FA, IMO they'll need some home runs to turn the franchise's around. And, yes, they'll have an uphill battle to sign quality FA's at reasonable deals. With their recent track record, particularly with their decisions on the offensive side of the ball, why should Bills fans have confidence they have the necessary skill to make a turnaround happen?
