You can see why Stefanski looked pissed when they announced the pick. Clearly an owner order, and as soon as the Browns lose a few games you know the talk of Deion becoming their new HC will start. I'd be amazed if that doesn't end up a disaster for them. If he doesn't start the season the chants for him will begin as soon as the starter has a bad game. If he does play well he'll be demanding more money. If he plays and plays badly Deion will say it's because they're not using him the right way. Urgh, definitely a circus waiting to happen

Right that's it. From now on Josh is banned from riding in or driving golf carts. In fact I don't want him playing golf at all, it's a stupid sport

I would but there are certain teams I will refuse to let draft him.

I like Beane a lot and see his point but when he says "people were saying this last offseason" he fails to remember he went out and panic traded for Cooper when he realised the WR room needed help

I don't know about anyone else but I've always had an affinity with old abandoned stadiums. There's something really atmospheric about these huge, empty buildings that once held so much atmosphere and celebrations and special moments. I remember seeing people exploring the old Silverdome in Detroit and it was fascinating. Just found this video on RFK from some urban explorers here and it's pretty interesting. When you think of all the big moments they had there, like the NFC championship games, and now it's just a ghost. Listen closely and you can hear the brass band playing hail to the Redskins as Pat Summerall and Madden wax lyrical about the Hogs.

I'd be happy with him. Look at the Samuel injury that dogged him most of last season. If something like that happens again it'll be reassuring to know you have a similar guy ready to get an increased role

Thank god we don't digg WRs

The big guy has me intrigued. I can only go by stuff I watch and read and listen to post draft but I've seen a lot of stuff today from people saying this guy was the steal of the draft. I know you can find those articles about lots of players but it's interesting how he is so polarizing. Lots of people see him as having amazing potential to be a game wrecker and others view him as a wasted pick. I'm looking forward to seeing him play

I haven't listened to his show, has he been campaigning for a first round pick on a WR and complaining about that, or did he want a speed WR in the mid rounds or FA? The latter I don't have a problem with. If he's complaining they didn't go after a super high-end receiver with draft capital or FA money then I agree with Beane that you can't have everything

I've just listened to it and didn't think Beane came across as overly salty. In a way I can understand him being a bit sensitive when you hear his point about being the biggest scorers in the league last year. But I do think the fantasy football line is a little OTT. It's not about trading next years number 1 for Tyreek Hill, it's about having a speed threat who can stretch the field and help keep the defense honest by taking a few shots at them each game. I don't think that's a crazy wish for a fan/pundit to have or suggest. Just because the offense played well last season doesn't mean defenses won't adjust this year. The whole point of running an effective offense is that you throw a few wrinkles in each season to show the defense something fresh.

I think Beane has been on the whiskey again

- Bill, how did you meet your gf? - Well, funniest thing, my friend introduced me to her as "the multi millionaire former NFL coach" and she instantly seemed really into me.

I have to say that had crossed my mind. I was wondering why they wouldn't go after a legit speedster and was thinking "Allen surely must have asked for one? And since he is the Bills franchise why wouldn't they do it?" All I could conclude was that Josh has said he prefers the gameplan the way it was this season (it got him an MVP so you can see why that would be the case). Maybe he doesn't even want the temptation of getting reckless and chucking deep instead of checking down. It's like how I prefer not to have candy in the house because I lack the discipline of not eating it all in one evening. It's all or nothing. I am the Josh Allen of calorie intake (although my wife is more Halley's Comet than Hailee Steinfeld)

The perception around the league and media is that Beane is a very good GM. The Jets fans were lamenting the fact that he leapfrogged them a couple of times and took DTs because that was a big area of need for them. We as fans of the Bills look at everything in more detail and make a lot more of his failures which Im sure is the same for other fans around the league, even fans of teams we consider really well run. Apparently even the chiefs fans were unhappy with their draft. You'd think they'd know to trust their regime by now considering they make the Super Bowl every year. I think Beane is great in general but I would like him to hit more home runs with his first rounders. that's been a real weakness of his which has been redeemed in large part by Josh Allen who is arguably the best pick in Bills history. His mid to late round picks have had a bunch of diamonds though

I'm not as smart as Beane but I also don't see the point of not having a speedster on the roster who you can use, at the least, as a gadget guy and to help keep the defense honest. I like the idea of having a guy you can use on jet sweeps like KC, and who you can just tell to tear down the field a few times a game and let Josh unleash one deep.
