In Summary

It's a show, not a concert. Thought the set was interesting. Like a house party in many rooms?

The epic amount of non football related stuff that was presented did nothing for me. The game feels like a sideshow. So be it.

...all this assuming Star isn't here.

Another poster made me aware of him. As much as people don't want yet another high draft pick spent on the DL, we really haven't spent one on the 1-Tech which is (to me) a different position than that of DE and Oliver's position. The Bills committed to the smaller 3-tech and MLB that struggles to disengage the opponent's OL, so they really have to firm this position up. I know the modern trend is to have your DTs be near the same pass rush threat as your DE's, but somebody has to own their real estate. Davis may not be a pass rusher, but I think he helps the pass rush indirectly. Were the Bills to shore up corner and/or interior OL with free agents, I'd be happy with this pick.

Allen - big steps forward. Team - small step back. Attribute mostly to OL.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no......................

Signing just one stable free agent to improve either corner, C/G, WR, or 1-Tech DT will greatly simplify the draft picture. Not talking about reclamation projects, but known commodities. Would like a quality guard in free agency since the interior OL needs starting level talent from Game 1. Josh is lethal with a good O-line (protection) and all moves need to support this. Other positions can be drafted and worked in when ready. Agree. The old cliche points about kickers and punters not being real football players and not worth drafting have no merit. A good punter is a weapon and more is made and lost with a good punter than the backup scrub you usually get in Rds 6-7.

Shame, because when he's motivated, he's a beast. Can't think of a more important position on the D (given Oliver's size/role and Edmund's "skillset") other than maybe corner 1.

Decouple the shipping deal from all the rest. Prime shipping and Prime media.

Drafting defensive ends doesn't address the 1 tech position. Separate positions. Separate issues

He's a gentleman. His points are clear. He doesn't work for the Bills or sports media and therefore doesn't need to filter his thoughts. So refreshing to not be insulted with platitudes and non-statements.

His short passing has gotten much better which considering he's usually ready to rifle it, a shorter touch pass is impressive in its way. If I had to nitpick on items to work on: 1) The arcing deep pass a la Jim Kelly. Jim threw a rainbow which had its advantages. Allen looks less confident floating those deeps passes. Still tends to overthrow. 2) Throwing in rhythm with fewer plays having to be extended ad libs and unplanned roll-outs. These are gold to watch, but I see plays take a while to develop. Maybe due to wanting the deep man too much or mostly reading far to near? Would love to see 3 step drops and quick slants with some RAC (pending the receiver to do it.) 3) Screen plays. Certainly far from being something Allen can fix himself, but we struggle here and it's a part of handling an aggressive D line. Bills haven't consistently run effective screens since.......?

If McDermott stepped in a few times I'm glad he did so.

While I think G/C and 1T DT are must upgrades, I'm prone to getting them in rds 2-4. 1st round is likely a corner (?).

All teams should be assigned a number between 1 and 100 as determined by random draw. No names.

I predict Collinsworth will man crush on Burrow for 3 hours. At the same time, after weeks of intensive research and preparation, Michele Tofoya will continue to keep the bar low as she bravely asks the coach of the losing team what they need to do in the 2nd half to win.

Although not recent, Ted Marchibroda going to the Colts after the Bills was notable. Built the K-gun with Kelly then left Buffalo after 2 of 4 Super Bowls.

I'd hope that McDermott would intervene when Daboll was drifting of the path.

You have to view the loss of Daboll as an opportunity to improve there. That's the mindset to have. Fearing change will cripple someone.

5th last beats last.

Or the Bills allow a lateral move so Frazier can join Daboll. Win-win? (Note: Not meant to be very serious.)

Probably done. Time for hockey. Some good young Sabres talent worth watching.

I like your 1Tech NT and Corner priorities but wouldn't trade up to get them.

No. Need to build a roster more that collect fancy pieces.

Have the captains battle it out on Madden.
