After reading a bunch of reviews of Coleman & watching highlights I am loving this pick.
First is the simple fact that the guy is a very big WR. This is more important to the Bills then straight speed. We haven't had a big WR for years.
Second Coleman is still young and so has the potential to get a lot better.
Third, the reviews were mostly positive: 2 A's, 4 B's and 1 C-.
Fourth, the guy is a TD machine.

At our own biggest need nonetheless and a spot you expect them to scout and scheme very well…if this move haunts us in a few months it could cost jobs
It should cost both McD & Bean their jobs if this comes back and bites the Bills in the butt. As others have noted they must not have liked Worthy and KC loved him. Now to be fair the Chiefs have not exactly been great at drafting WR's the last few seasons.

Would trading up for Turner be crazy? I can't say I'd be too upset
Not if it costs us our 2nd round pick and we don't have a 3rd round pick.

The temptation is going to be too great to not take a defensive player. There will be some studs there when we pick.
That's my fear to. But the first 13 picks have been offensive players. It's clear where the entire NFL thinks the priority should be. To take a defensive player in the face of this and after you traded away your best WR would be a risky move by McD/Bean - a very risky move.

I think McConkey has some elite traits. The gritty slot/lunch pail thing annoys me. I think he's more the Fred Astaire of wide receivers. He's smooth, and at the same time can break a route off with violence.
Lance Alworth comes to mind. I would be very happy with McConkey. I suspect we'll pass on him if he's still available and then deeply regret that we didn't take him.

Lamar won an MVP and 1st team all pro and a playoff game since then.
Mahomes has won an MVP and a 1st team all pro, gone to 5 straight AFC Championships, nabbed a 1st team all pro, 4 Super Bowls and nabbed 3 rings since then.
Referring to Lamar Jackson and the playoffs kind of destroys your whole point. For a guy with 2 MVP's and whose team twice secured the #1 seed Jackson has been remarkably bad in he playoffs. Jackson & Allen do not exist on the same field when looking at playoff football.

Rallied the troops? The troops were flat as pancakes from the start. They were pushed around by a team that came to play. Josh was crushed by the idea of losing at the end of the game. He is the heart and soul of the team. Diggs is a me first jerk who loves to blame others. His talent has diminished and now the Bills and the fanbase is the problem. Don’t let the door hit you in the Fanny.
Agree. At the end when Diggs ripped into Allen for all to see he was clearly dispirited at how the game had went. The idea that it was Allen alone who was flat for the game is simply absurd. The Bills defense allowed the Bengals to easily drive 75 yards for TD's on their first two possessions. That set the tone for the game - the Bengals came to play and the Bills were in la la land.

I’d probably need 5 firsts including the first overall pick with a “can’t miss QB” prospect in the draft. I’m not talking Trevor Lawrence. I’m talking Andrew Luck / Peyton Manning level prospect.
And they would need to throw in a roof for the new stadium.

No and I still don't think he's as good as Allen.

I LOVE that diggs got in Josh's face. Someone had to. He was the only guy on this team that wanted to win and seemed to actually put the work in. Josh is far more concerned with chasing Hollywood tail and golfing.
I love how hard Josh plays, but he just doesn't put the mental work in and it's the reason he doesn't have a ring yet, and perhaps never will.
These two points are so wrong for so many reasons.
1) The idea that Diggs was the only guy on the team that wanted to win is ridiculous on its face. Sure, Diggs worked hard to project the image of the only one who cared but IMO he was posturing most of that time. I think back to his standing there in Arrowhead Stadium watching the Chiefs celebrate their conference championship win. Talk about a posed Kodak picture moment.
And the idea that Allen doesn't care about winning is based on what exactly? Your perception that in the first couple of months after the season ends the guy actually lives his life? I don't know where this came from but its a meritless smear IMO.
2) And to say that the reason Allen hasn't won a Super Bowl yet is because he doesn't "put the mental work in" is flat out crazy talk. So you think if Allen had spent the off season studying how not to let your Special Teams and Defense blow a 3 point lead with only 13 seconds left would have helped? Because I'm wondering what more then leading the Bills on TWO late 4th quarter TD drives could a more mentally prepared Allen have done in that game.

Eh in just over a week he might have 2 rookie WRs he needs to plan to invite, scheduling a time where all these guys can meet up can be a pain in the ass sometimes.
I think these people wanted Allen to hold passing drills at his house in March with the WR's including Diggs & Davis.

If Josh had won 3 SB’s, I wouldn’t complain about anything he ever did or didn’t do.
Wait, you don't get off this easy. Isn't the point of you guys complaining Allen isn't devoted to football 24/7 in the off season based on your belief that Mahommes is all about football all the time and that he stays in great shape. Choose one or the other.

No. We aren't slackers. We're here on 2BD posting away. We take the off season seriously not like Allen.

While the defense didn’t put up much of a fight against their offense Allen did get the ball last with a chance to win. Yes he did his job but I bet he wish he could’ve driven the team to a touchdown with little time left to ensure a win. I’m sure he’ll do better next time that opportunity presents itself.I can't fathom why you would post this drivel? You think Allen would rather have had the TD then the easy FG try? Wow, high level football insight there.

So if the white QB yells at the black WR on the sideline it's ok. But if the black WR yells at the white QB it's a no no.
Got it!
I saw Brady yell at his guys multiple times on the sideline and nobody ever called him a diva.
Mahommes and his WR argued on the sideline during the SuperBowl. Kelce argued and pushed his coach. All water under the bridge because they won.
And lastly, why do kickers get a pass. Norwood cost us a SuperBowl. He failed his biggest moment in his professional career. Yes Levy, Talley, and Kelly were just as culpable for losing SuperBowl XXV but why does Norwood get a pass? Why should Bass be absolved. He didn't do his job, maybe somebody should have gotten in his grill so he fixes his issues.
What does race have to do with it?

Let's be real, Josh knows he threw that game away. And Diggs (or anyone) saying something critical probably would've struck a nerve.
I doubt it had anything to do with Josh disliking Diggs, but rather a moment where he was already hard on himself & not in the mood to deal with anything extra.
How big a dick would we think any Bills player was if they went up to Bass after he missed that FG against KC to ream him out? There is NO excuse for Diggs to have gone after Allen at that point. None what-so-ever. Add this to his publicly yelling at Allen on the sidelines in the Bengal's playoff game and I say good riddance Diggs. It may hurt us this year but in the long run this was the best thing that could happen to this team.

Diggs was a postseason no-show. That is a fact.
In the last 6 playoff games (2021 - 2023) Diggs has been a no show in 5 of them. Allen was a no show (along with the rest of the team against the Bengals) in 1 of them.
Can you imagine the crap Allen would be taking on 2BD if he had only one good playoff games in the last six games?
3 hours ago, FireChans said:It's also possible they are both divas. Diggs can be a malcontent, an emotionally labile time bomb, and Josh can also have his own share of problems (doesn't put in the work, huge ego, etc) that he is responsible for.
We just don't know.
How the hell do you know that Allen "doesn't put in the work"? And where do you get the idea that Allen has a huge ego? Judas Priest the attacks on Allen under the guise of the Diggs trade are bizarre.

That's exactly how he felt. Diggs would give his life to win a Superbowl. Josh Allen is just happy to be in the conversation
And you know this how?
And for someone who would "give his life to win a Super Bowl" Diggs sure did disappear in the 2021, 2022, & 2023 playoffs.

Milano is (and was) the 2nd best player on the team. He’s a top of the league player at his position. I’d says he’s the only other star on the roster.
I love Milano and think he's one of the best LB's in the game but if this is true and I believe it is then it's a part of the problem. We need great impact players who play impact positions. And after Allen we've been decidedly lacking those type of players in the playoffs. And all you have to do is look at Diggs production the last 6 playoff games (2021 through now) to see that he was far from being an impact player when he was most needed to be one.

Or, in his case, the dropping game.
By my count Cook dropped 4 easy TD catches and on only one of the drives that he dropped a TD pass did we go on a score a TD. So yes those drops did hurt us. But Cook also made some big plays in the passing game. My expectation is that he will work on the drops reducing them. At the same time as he gains more confidence in a pro passing attack his big plays will balloon in number.

I am not happy this happened. I think the Bills got objectively worse - I think Beane knows it.
I believe (maybe hope is a better word) that this is a classic case of taking one step back to more easily take two steps forward. If ever there was a WR draft that made this decision easier this year is it.

Diggs is great no doubt but just looking at this Samuel should be able to put up Davis numbers pretty easily. I think kincaid could end up being close to Diggs numbers last year (maybe 90 catches for 1000). Shakir should be able to replicate Kincaid numbers from last year so you need a rookie to replace shakir’s 39 catches and 600 yards. Not really all that crazy.Don't forget that Cook is likely to play a larger role in the passing game.
Will Beane successfully move around on Day 3?

So next season the Bills have TWO 2nd round and TWO 4th round picks. Not to shabby. Why use a 5th round pick for a guy that will be there in the 6th or 7th round or can be signed as a free agent? This is a great move by Bean.
