Breida will be just fine. He will do some serious damage if we develop a screen game or Allen needs to check down. Brieda is a guy you need to get mismatched and he’ll fly
Agreed. He’ll be a 3rd down option for swing and screen passes.

Running game looks very good.

Singletary looks great.

Rookie QB’s rarely play on a team that has success leading to a playoff run. A couple reasons is that they are rookies and teams that start rookie QB’s are generally weak (which is why they start a rookie QB). Jones to me looks like an immobile QB with at best an average arm. If he is playing the majority of snaps I will make a guess of no more than 7 wins. This is based upon other first year QB starters records.

That first half is going to = how the entire season will go for the patzies. they will win 7 games this season.. that's it
If that. They’ll probably average around 16 points per game with that offense.

Year One.
That's the qualifier.
Still, looking at the names on that list, not many of them turned into DE #1's.
Here is the original Tweet:
Understood. I think there is a lot that goes into those numbers, such as how many snaps the player gets and whose playing in front of him. I imagine most of those listed didn’t get the majority of snaps their first year thus contributing to limited number of sacks. Since our leading sacker last year only had 5 sacks if Rousseau gets 4-5 sacks he’ll look like a steal.

I just think that some NFL evaluators are telling you there isn't much of a difference ultimately between Rousseau and Epenesa in terms of talent.
They seem to be pointing out that they tend to win on hustle plays and pass rush against weaker players, neither one has proven variety of moves or snap reaction or speed.
Neither profiles as a #1 Pass Rusher in the NFL, as both seem to be 3-8 sack kind of guys.
Which again, Sal Capaccio demonstrated, that this is most likely what you're going to get when you take DEs beyond pick 25.
That’s an interesting discussion because for kicks and giggles I just looked up this past years sack leaders and the majority of the top 10 DE sack leaders were in fact drafted beyond pick # 25. I’m not sure what stats Capaccio is referring to when he makes his claim.

Joe Marino said he was at that smaller combine they held in in Florida And he personally clocked him at 4.0 twice. Regardless, he’s very fast on the field and that is evident
I think Joe may need a new watch. But to your point, he is very fast. Just blowing by DBs like they’re standing still.

I think in his case its part of what his length brings to the table. plus big hands have a lot of strength in them. HIs length and hand strength give him the ability to grab a jersey or ankle and bring a guy down that someone else wouldnt be able to do...so that's a definite strength to his arsenal that he brings.
Agreed. How many times have you seen a DE just miss getting a sack because the QB was able elude the rush. What I’ve noticed about his tape is that his length allows him to get sacks others wouldn’t get.

i just disagree with not making RB a priority and blaming blocking/scheme. Motor looked sig worse last year talent/ability wise. Moss looked promising. I like the Breida signing a lot. I can see him replacing Motor more than Yeldon. I figured we would get another in udfa at least for depth.
All that RB talk aside, 1T is a glaring need and the strategy so far appears to be hoping harry and star can perform adequately.
The stats back up that the RBs weren’t the problem with the run game. Singletary and Moss were both in the top 10 in the league for yards after contact.

How old are you? I'm not criticizing you or this draft and you can't know how the players will turn out but I've been around a long time and seen more exciting drafts
You are confusing “exciting” with competent.
-
I give it an A based upon where they were drafting. It’s easy to draft well when you’re drafting 1 or 2, but when you’re at the back end you really have to think it through. They had a plan and stuck with it.

The ESPN analysts are raving about Hamlin and Goosechase.
Yes they were. I’ve nicknamed him Chase.

Well, the most important factors in the NFL are your offensive passing game and stopping the opponents passing game. The Bills already have the offensive side down and now are shoring up the defensive side. Makes sense.

Just now, Victory Formation said:
Well, this makes sense for New England. I do think he may be a solid starter, but in no way will this push the needle forward far enough for the Pats to overcome Josh and the Bills. He will never be the QB Josh is.
He’s not in the same universe as Josh. Not much of an athlete and needs all day protection. He’s not at Alabama anymore.

Jones reminds me of Opi from Andy Griffith show.

Looks like Pats took Jones.

Tua managed to throw it to him pretty well at Alabama.
The NFL isn’t Alabama. We’ve seen Tua in the NFL.

I know, he sucks, but Waddle is a serious matchup problem.
He can’t throw it to himself.

Is it me, or does this crop of qb's look like they barely hit puberty?
Yes, just mentioned that Wilson looks like he’s 12 years old.

I like trading down, but there's no way Beane will trade down. He'll either trade up or stay put. Trade up if there's a guy they rate really high who fills a perceived need. That's like there's a guy at 22 who they rated 12. Something like that.
Or they'll take someone at 30? Why? Because there will almost certainly be someone they rated around 20 available then. Why? Well, because quarterbacks are so highly valued, some teams will take QBs who aren't really rated as first rounders but who are too valuable to them to pass on. Plus, teams rate players differently. Plus, there are some really talented guys, first round talent, that don't have the character, the emotional makeup that McBeane are looking for, and those guys aren't on Beane's board at all. The result of all of that is that by 30, some guys McBeane really like will still be there.
Completely agree. Some act as if every teams board is the same. The boards are going to be different for a variety of reasons as stated. There will be someone available at 30 for Beane who may be 20 on his board but 35 on another team’s.
I really think he stays at 30.

We don't want the Bills to draft Etienne but what will we be saying if the Pats, Fins or Jets get him?
Good luck watching the playoffs from your couch?

Great video. Particularly liked at the end when he said “thank you it was wonderful to have you”. Seems like a very neat young man.

This made me laugh. I guess it's true that the picks helped in the Diggs trade, but it's not like the Diggs trade wouldn't have happened if the Bills hadn't made the Teller trade.
I don't think the Teller trade was a disaster or to use your word, a "fail," but it IS amusing the extent to which people will go to defend Beane. I think Beane has been excellent, but nobody gets them all right. If Beane had a chance to undo that one, I'm sure he would.
Mickey Mantle struck out once in a while, and so does Beane.
True that no one is perfect, but Beane is the best in the business, as voted on by his peers.

Actually he looked good on the last two pass plays. Run blocking has been pretty good.
