    McDuffie is the smart pick and the right pick. He's not only a top 15 player but he's BPA at a position of need.

    Meh, he's a low-ceiling player. I think you have to do better than that in the first.


    If we're faced with that situation in real life, I hope we trade back, improve our 2 and take Tariq Woolen and the best available WR.

    Yeah….I’ll go with the lower risk situation.  I love a healthy hunter…but giving up a 1st and having to pay and extend him to a massive contract is scary. He’s gonna want 25-30M aav long term. 😳  I’d rather rent jones for 1-2 years.  Hunter is superior at this point, I’d rather keep the pick and draft a potential cornerstone player and adding a proven potential HoF pass rusher.  

    I agree with the sentiment, but no one is giving up a first for Danielle Hunter. That's been the case for a few years now, and especially not now with the Vikings looking at likely having to cut him.

    Tremaine Edmunds contract comparison

    For better or for worse, Edmunds is 5 years younger than Campbell. I think the answer (and the crux of the debate about him as a player in general, really) depends on what you think of his ability to continue developing. 

     

    Given a rising cap, I'd bet on him continuing to develop and say yes.

    Just shocking how far this guy has fallen

    https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/08/11/deshaun-watson-lands-at-fourth-string-on-texans-quarterback-depth-chart/

    This is more than a little silly. I'm not arguing for the content of his character at all, but it's not like Watson is their 4th string QB because he all of a sudden forgot how to play football. He's still in the upper echelon of QBs in the league in terms of talent, this is a unique situation to be sure.

    Name a good Bills player who would have been much better if he had better support.

    I'll go to my deathbed pounding the table for James Hardy (R.I.P.), so he feels like a good answer to this question. How in the world were we expecting a vertical/jump ball threat WR to succeed when we were employing a QB afraid to throw the ball beyond the LOS??? Such a Billsy thing to do in that era of utter incompetence... 


    He certainly had his demons, but had things gone his way, I think those could've been overcome as well... 

    Texans' Deshaun Watson accused of indecent conduct in civil lawsuit; QB denies wrongdoing

    I've not read through the previous 51 1/2 pages of this thread, but just here to say, any thought on this story that isn't defaulting to Watson settling to keep this out of courts is naïve. Sadly, this is no longer about what did or didn't happen or to what extent Deshaun is or isn't guilty, it's all about negotiating leverage... ZERO chance this plays out fully in civil court.

    As a HS prospect and early in college, EV was a twitchy, penetrating DL playing under 3bills. He had a solid frame so I suppose him carrying 315 doesn't feel impossible to me, but it certainly sounds like too much. I haven't watched him in several years, so no clue if he's got anything left, but definitely surprised to see him that heavy -- perhaps not a coincidence that a once VERY highly ranked prospect hasn't done much, given the trajectory of his playing weight juxtaposed against his style of play/ways he wins...

    Falcons declining fifth-year option on TE Hayden Hurst

    He was brought in as the replacement for Autin Hoopert who chased money to Cleavland last year. Typical stats with julio and Ridley on the outside. He is decent and still has up side. Worth a 3rd or 4th in my opinion but what do I know

    1,000,000% 

     

    Hurst isn't a superstar, but he's a good blocker, a great athlete and a good-enough route runner. Anyone who doesn't want him -- given our current TE situation -- is either Dawson Knox or talking out of their backside. He'd definitely be an upgrade to our situation if we got him affordably enough...

    If he is cut then the other 31 teams have a shot at him. Trading worthless picks ensures you get him

    Who cares about the future. Win a SB now.

    I don’t know man I’m not running the draft, just saying there’s very clearly a reason he’s not been traded for. Perhaps he’s let teams know that there’s a specific team he wants to go to? Maybe his medicals are so bad no one wants to touch him? Maybe he’s retiring? 
     

    I’ll put it this way: if he were healthy and the Ertz of old and willing to play for your team and willing to restructure, he would have been traded by now...
