    He was a top 5 pick on some draft board, but a 10 player on hardly any big boards. 

     

    Allen is a boom or bust prospect who history shows probably won't work out. I don't know why people get so upset when people are critical of him. 

    Maybe on ledyards board but then again he had paxton lunch and cardale jones ahead of Carson wentz.  Mayock, Mcshay, walter football, kiper, pete prisco all had allen as a top 10 pick

    Yes, of course they are and yes he does.

     

    He was on with Schopp and Bulldog explaining his take on Allen quite well a couple of days ago. 

     

    Ad hominem attacks like we are seeing in this thread are a common logical fallacy widely practiced by your average Bills fan.

     

    Ultimately, the source of the contempt for Ledyard is the poster's own fear that Allen isn't going to pan out.

     

    He was considered a high risk project player by almost everyone, most had him as a 3rd round type gamble.

     

    He is still exhibiting the same sorts of issues he has always exhibited, and his accuracy is all over the map.

     

    It's just basic psychology.  Rather than address these things head on, the typical fan attacks the source of the criticism.

     

     

     

    He was a top 5 pick in almost every major draft board so I guess this guy is smarter than everyone else. 

  3. The Mahomes comparisons are ridiculous.  On guy has a established offensive line, Andy Reid who has developed several very good qbs and maybe the best set of skill position players in the NFL  The other has a offensive line with new starters at almost every spot,  a defensive mind basically rookie head coach and likely the worst receiving core in pro football.  Anyone think Mahomes would be thriving if the situations were reversed?

  4. I don't think you even need all 22 film to see the line isnt very good .  Not on every snap but certainly lots of protection breakdowns  Maybe they gel and things improve. Lot of those sacks was two guys picking up one rusher and leaving someone free to buzz in on the qb  Josh can help by making a decision and getting the rock out.  Get that run game going and don't put all the emphasis on Allen and he'll be ok.

  5. Assuming we finish near the bottom, we should be able to land the best OT or pass rusher available or possibly swap picks and fill two holes.   I'd be ok with a lock down corner as well.  Tre and another player of that caliber sounds pretty good to help the pass rush.  Hoping a hyped up qb or 2 or three emerge.  Lot of teams will be looking at qb  Lot of older guys nearing the end (Roethlisberger, Eli, Brady, Rivers, etc)  Add wr and OG in FA
