    SB window can close quickly. I would like to see a 1st rounder who would have an immediate impact. 

    Two things;

     

    1) Who would that be at pick thirty? With all other organizational considerations accounted for?

     

    2) The FO in Buffalo is not interested in the slightest in being a team with a short term window, would have thought folks would have figured that out by now.

    My point, simply, is the guy is a project (he was a WR not that long ago). I also did not criticize him for opting out-- just stating that he only played one year (maybe another year would have helped his development).

    If you check any draft analysis of him, you will actually see some negatives-- limited pass rush moves, strength, bad pro day. If not for negatives, he would have been long gone by the time the Bills. picked. And Maybin was not mentioned as a physical comparison-- just "bust potential"-- although Rousseau was taken much later.

    I hope the guy works out (I personally wanted someone who could help in 2021-- a DB?, maybe a WR?).

    He is exactly the selection for the future that Beane said he was going to be drafting in his pre-draft interview, why all this angst and drama about what we were all told in advance that we would be selecting??? We all knew this was the type of pick he was going for...,

    It's a position of need, but Rouse is not the immediate fix to it.  Please tell me who you are sitting?  Hughes, Addison, Epenesa, Obada, or Johnson who plays a HUGE role of ST.  Most likely 4 will be dressed.

    Why is it that fans default to the GM and HC can’t deal with having this guy on the roster? How lame is that, really... as if that scenario has never happened before in the football world...,  on to round two, Go Bills!!!

    This was a lousy year for DE's. Rousseau , if considered a "sure thing," would have been gone 20 picks earlier. Struggled at his Pro Day and opted out last year. I've heard several of his sacks in '19 were "coverage sacks" and that he lacks any great pass rushing moves. Needs to improve there, add strength.

    He is a project with high bust potential, which is why some have conjured images of Maybin.

    That’s a weak commentary, basing it on, “I heard” about this and that, and the conjecture about Maybin...  really?   And “ he opted out” as if that means he has no capacity to be a quality acquisition...., it just means he values his family, but some would hold that against him evidently...,  coverage sacks mean the player was doing his job, because the DBs were doing theirs, what’s to whimper about on that??  You may have heard of the, do your 1/11th... guess what, he was doing his 1/11th.

    I didn’t sign Addison last year.  I didn’t draft a bunch of high picks in the Front 7.  
     

    It’s ok to hold a really good FO accountable in an area they haven’t been that good.   
     

    They’ve been elite almost everywhere else.
     

    Sure, invest where it’s needed, but KC exposed our offense and instead of doing what they did when exposed by Tampa Bay.. so far.. we’ve decided continuity and development is the answer.   Maybe it is. Maybe we draft some offense tonight and people like me will shut up about it.  

    So pray tell, are you so worked up because OBD won’t take/return your calls? 😂

    Well done sir.  I am trying to talk my wife into moving down to south carolina after my daughter graduates.  My wife loves the beach so I have been looking right outside of Myrtle Beach, a town called Conway, SC.  I will work on my daughter when the time is right to go to Coastal Carolina.  Any thoughts on if that is a good place to settle in for a couple that is in their late 40's?

    Well, we are currently passing through headed to Connecticut on our sailboat, making our way back from the Bahamas.  We have made this trip up and down the coast on three occasions, we are quite fond of Beaufort SC, nice little town with all one could want, there is a place called Low country produce, a little restaurant deli that has a tomato pie to die for 👍 sorry to not be of more help on relocation front, the beaches are very nice, the seafood is great, try Calabash style it’s very tasty, oh and the people are quite friendly from our experience,
