Why do people think that Josh Allen taking a leap after year 3 means that anyone can take a leap after year 3? It’s idiotic.

Even if the Bills win multiple Super Bowls, some will cling to this view.

Labeling a 7th rounder a dumpster fire is a red flag for your entire thought process haha. It makes the whole thing laughable. Look at any talent acquired by other organizations during the same time frame, it’s not nearly as pretty. Josh Allen or no Josh Allen.

This makes a whole lot of sense as well.

My guess is Gaine has a lot of those responsibilities and is paid closer to an AGM than not. This is an opportunity for us to attract some talent from outside to replenish our Front Office a little bit. Opportunities are going to come from word of mouth around the league, not necessarily AGM titles. Wouldn’t be able to get this Hunt guy on a lateral move.

Benford is absolutely making the roster.

His hat is sick… too bad it costs like $70

Actually, what’s even more impressive about all of this, is that Elam does not have an agent. He represents himself with help of his father and uncle who both played in the league. He isn't employing an agent, rather, Elam is representing himself in the draft process with help from his father Abram and uncle Matt, both former NFL players and the latter an All-American defensive back at Florida, as well as advisors, financial planners and a lawyer.

Well considering the coaching staff and scouting staff are entirely different, I don’t get the point.

That's a real twisted description of what Beane said. Then again, what's the issue of taking an athlete that's versatile and letting the staff maximize his ability?

If went on every thread in the last 3 days and compiled all of your posts repeating this same statement, I could put together a thread that rivals the stupid ***** 100 page Breece Hall thread. Enough already.

Shameless plug as ESPN conducted a similar analysis. They were just a year and a half behind. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/33297949/nfl-draft-which-teams-gotten-best-value-2012-rank-all-32

Haha ESPN’s analysis looks familiar… I did it over a year ago and refreshed it this January. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/33297949/nfl-draft-which-teams-gotten-best-value-2012-rank-all-32

Let's examine this great quote as it pertains to pass catchers... Reid/Veach this off-season: ADDED/KEPT Marquez Valdes-Scantling (3 year deal) Juju Smith-Schuster (1 year deal) MOVED ON Demarcus Robinson (FA) Byron Pringle (FA) Tyreek Hill (Trade) McDermott/Beane this off-season: ADDED/KEPT Stefon Diggs (4 year extension + 2 existing years left) Isaiah McKenzie (2 year extension) Jamison Crowder (1 year FA) OJ Howard (1 year FA) MOVED ON Emmanuel Sanders (FA) Cole Beasley (Release) What exactly did Reid/Veach do different than McDermott/Beane this off-season that screams "offense is prioritized" ?

It’s not negligence if people posting on TBD driver declare that the 7th best WR is worth a first round pick.

What about Beane and McDermott being here for 5 years with next to zero leaked information gives you an idea that vibes and gossips goes around in the building? Being an insider, in a different organization, I can promise you that what you’re describing doesn’t happen like you’re describing it.

There's absolutely zero shot that their draft decisions are well known in the building - at least where every player is aware. Especially pending free agents months in advance of the draft. I'm sorry, but it doesn't work this way.

$4.5M/year over two years in free agency is extremely different than weighing the opportunity cost in RD1 of drafting a RB vs. a cost controlled player at a premium position. McKissic himself was a UDFA. He’s a pass catching specialist, so there isn’t a worry about him taking the ball out of Josh’s hands, he’s an extension of Josh as he is a pass catcher. Hall may be a similar profile, but it doesn’t change the issue of the value lost by selecting a RB early.

As long as it's before 4pm we're good. I have a Mock Draft competition and my submission is due then. 😂

The value of a RB on a RD1 deal vs a premier position on a RD1 deal. The fact that a RD1 pick has a 5th year option that’s extremely valuable and most RB don’t remain effective after 4-5 years. The fact that you said he’s a better version of McKissic who was an UDFA that signed for $3.5M/year. That in itself screams not worth the value of a RD1 pick lol

Running backs aren’t worth RD1 picks. They’re just not worth it. 25 is upper RD2 talent wise just about every year… Upper RD2 value is fine, but that 5th year option on a premier position is way more important.

That’s fine and probably true… but is a better McKissic a RD1 pick? I can’t get behind this and I’m a pretty big McBeane guy.

Their draft model undoubtedly knocks Lloyd down due to age.

Starter for Tennessee last year at RT. Graded out well as a run blocker. Had some struggles pass blocking. Nice little depth sign at this stage of free agency with some starting experience.

Isn’t she one of the Brent Musberger girls from FSU?
