Everything I have read and watched on Bishop says he can tackle, cover, and play deep. Perhaps you’re seeing and different things than I am

Beane said he wanted someone who was good at what they did, not necessarily a speed guy, at least in his last press conference before the draft. Hopefully Keon can win some contested balls. If he can't it will be a failed pick. Hopefully it's not Duke 2.0.
How is this in any way shape or form comparable to Duke? Outside of them being WR there’s nothing that’s the same

We didn’t really get an extra 3rd round pick.
We traded a 4th for a 3rd, so we essentially moved up half a round.
Thats a lot different than keeping our picks and gaining a 3rd.
I would have been fine trading with anyone else. I hate that they traded with KC.
So not to split hairs but they moved up over a full round trading the 4th for a 3rd....133 to 95, so 38 spots

You can play offense by having a good defense. You take away a puzzle piece that the chiefs have missed for the last 2 yrs with Hill and gave it right back. However close we were to beating them before is long gone now.
You don’t know this at all. The other teams might not have traded with them, or instead took worthy before them. This isn’t known.
The end result is KC dominating us for another 5 years until Allen ups and leaves after next contract.

If he was so good, why wasn’t he taken earlier in the draft? With that much speed there are obviously red flags with him. He’s not a great route runner and at his size he can be held in check. I’m not saying I wouldn’t have been happy if the Bills took him, but the doom and gloom when there are plenty of receivers left is a bit much

Bills send 28, a 2025 1st, and our 2nd, to move into top 15 to draft Thomas.
With Denver or New Orleans is who I would guess.
An additional first AND second to love into the mid teens?!?! Seems like an extreme overpay

I want to know who voted 11+. Calling BS for 95% of you!
I call BS on 100% of them! There are 3rd and PS guys in the league who are worlds better than any poster on here and let’s be honest, even they would struggle to get 11+ completions. I’m hoping every single one of those people who voted 11+ (even 6-10) votes that way as a joke

With all the fumbled snaps and dropped shotgun snaps, it would really cut down on the number of attempts to have the passes batted down at the line of scrimmage.
Do we get to deal with wind and weather also or is there a roof?
The game will be played in the downtown indoor stadium

If you specified “ Past the LOS “ or worse “ Over the LOS” then I’m probably at a zero.
Honestly feel I’ve got five shovel passes and or passes to the backs ( behind the Los) , in me.
Sure would like to make some of that third or fourth string money, though!
I did state that shovel passes and jet sweeps aren’t allowed for the purpose of this. I want to know how many people think they can complete legit NFL passes.
The fact that there are so many people selecting the 6-10 and the 11+ option shows how delusional some people are and how much they underestimate how good the NFL is

My time has come and gone as a pretty good athlete. There was a time when I had a pretty good arm back in the day. Not NFL levels good, but I could hit 60 yards on occasion. That said, outside of maybe a couple of swing passes to a RB, or a shovel / push pass, I'm guessing it wouldn't go extremely well. I'm guessing that even in my prime, the only passes I could complete would be quick hitters at or behind the LOS. I think trying to even hit a simple hitch route against NFL players would be darn near impossible for us average Joes, no matter how well you can throw a football.
These people saying 6-10 or 11+ are absolutely in fairy tale land. There are games in the NFL where NFL QBs have not completed 10 passes. You think you being some Joe Shmoe off the street with no experience are going to go into an NFL game for the first time and complete double digit passes? You're absolutely dreaming.
Remember when the Broncos had to play a random guy at QB during the Covid season because all of their QBs got Covid? If I remember correctly that guy only completed 1 pass-that leads me to believe pretty much no one (and I’m heavily leaning no one) on this board could complete a pass

We've all thought about it, so how many passes do you think you could complete in an NFL game? For the sake of argument, let's say the pass must travel pass the line of scrimmage, so none of this jet sweep just give a touch pass to your wide receiver type stuff.

I really like how the OP said to himself “hey this is a historically bad idea, I think I’m going to write this down for all of the internet to see”
Edit:I actually had a lot more written down, but I felt bad for the OP and deleted most of what I wrote

I fully agree, I understand it should be a certain level of frustration with him, but some talk like he is worthless. He's had some flashes here and there, also I for one thought that INT he made in the EZ against Steelers in the playoffs was a damn good play.

So this justifies him taking a roster spot? Time to cut yoUr losses and move on. We made one mistake picking him. Let's not compound it by keeping him.
But he’s not an unrosterable guy. What losses are you cutting? Doesn’t look like he’s a starter but he’s fine for depth. I would much rather have him in the game than Cam Lewis

Simms is right. Nobody knows what went on in the locker room. Josh could’ve pressed Diggs multiple times. He’s just smart enough not to throw him under the bus in front of the media. I think we as fans want somebody to put Diggs in his place in front of the cameras, that WOULD be satisfying, but what would it accomplish besides giving the media even more to ***** about? A 2nd rounder next year is a GOOD deal. We eat the money this year then we are home free. As much as I hate drafting somebody based on “character” I hope they grab a WR who’s not a cry baby.
Exactly-Josh had been in the league 6 years now, and all we have ever heard is what a good leader he is. You would think if he wasn’t someone would’ve said something at some point over the last 6 years. I have said it 1,000 times on here and will continue to say it-SCREAMING AT YOUR TEAMMATES IN FRONT OF THE CAMERAS DURING A GAME DOES NOT MAKE SOMEONE A GOOD LEADER

Or, in your case, murderers row.
He came off the bench. He's a first rounder. You call out one play he made and you say coach him up.
He doesn't fit here. I think he something to offer, just not here.
But what are you getting for him? Don’t trade him just to get anything, that’s ludicrous. He’s on a rookie deal at a position of need-that being said he was on the bench, he was inactive, and he was on IR last year…so what could they possibly get for him? His trade value has never been lower and will never be lower

I'd trade like a 4th round pick. He has done nothing but show the team was absolutely stupid for trading AJ Brown and drafting him as the replacement
Keenan Allen was traded for a 4th round pick-no way is Burks worth the same. I would be very upset if they traded a 4th for him
-
Giving up a first round pick for a second round pick is NOT a good idea. You’re giving up a first rounder for a guy who is definitively a second round player. Has a team ever given up a first round for a second round?
I like the rest of it, but you lost me at the trade (also not completely sold on Aiyuk)

Is he though?
I bet Doug Whaley would have been better with Josh.
Whaley built the team that broke the drought. Without Josh.
Polian at least made Superbowls.
Oh buddy, you were doing so well too. I didn’t agree with you but at least it seemed like you had some thought and logic behind your earlier posts. Then you go and say this, and now you’ve lost

He gets plenty of criticism, especially the last two years. However, we should ask how many NFL GMs have clearly done a better job than Beane. I feel there is only two obvious ones and a bunch who are on a similar level
1. Brett Veach - Chiefs (obviously)
2. Howie Roseman -- Eagles: Two Super Bowls with two different QBs and two different coaches but the team fell apart at the end of last year and they might be in a bit of trouble if it turns out Jalen Hurts is not the guy.
On same level (in no particular order)
3. Eric DeCosta -- Ravens --- always has good drafts but one wonders how high their ceiling is with Lamar Jackson.
4. Brian Gutekunst -- Packers --- nice job transitioning from Rogers to Love.
5. John Lynch -- 49ers -- two super bowls in the weaker NFC. However one has to wonder how much is luck and the extra draft picks the 49ers have gotten, considering how many complete busts he has had in the first round (Solomon Thomas, Reuben Foster, Trey Lance, Javon Kinlaw). Beane never made a mistake anywhere close to the disastrous trade up for Trey Lance.
6. Wes Snead -- Rams -- one Super Bowl victory but mortgaged the future for it.
7. Duke Tobin -- Bengals -- got to one Super Bowl but has not been able to protect Joe Burrow and was extremely lucky to get that Super Bowl.
Off to a good start but not yet proven:
8. Nick Caserio -- Texans -- masterful job rebuilding the Texans and still has a lot of draft capital.
9. Brad Holmes -- Lions -- only two years on the job so far so will need to see sustained success.
I don't know if the OP thinks Beane should be fired but you certainly aren't getting any of these guys to come to Buffalo.
So DeCosta is an interesting name you bring up. I feel people around here generally see him as a good GM, but he’s had a lot of misses on draft picks. They have been throwing draft pick after draft pick at wide receivers in the first three rounds ever since they drafted Lamar-have any of them been a huge hit?

DK Metcalf has too many question marks. His salary is already too high IMO. He's in the J Jefferson range and J Jeff would be the much better player to get.
I'm talking myself back into Dhop. He is great value at that $13M range - and I think he has much better hands than Metcalf. Dhop would be a great bridge as we develop someone like A Mitchell/Legette/Franklin/McConkey or Coleman. All those rookies are risky though (even BTJ) whereas DHop is a known commodity.
Tenn has a high pick, number 7, I believe. Trading to get up there would take too much IMO. But Tenn may want to grab one of the big 3 and then unload DHop. The question would be what would it take draft capital wise.
If Keenan Allen was traded for a 4th, DHop isn’t going for anything more than a 5th and it would think even that’s pushing it

Riddle me this, in an obvious rebuild year, why not let Trubisky take several more snaps to save Josh’s body and build trade value for himself in the future? With Josh’s physical style of play, taking serious body blows in a season not setup to see more than 4-6 wins just doesn’t make sense to me. Crazy take but what else can you say
This is 100% the dumbest thing I’ve heard since the trade was announced

I suppose, but our wins were not all impressive. Remember, we needed unlikely defensive TDs to beat Miami and NE.
I'm in the minority on thinking that Brady's not going to be good.
Also controversial, although for the life of me I don't know why, is the take that we should be doing everything that we can to build around and support Allen, particularly the passing game. (WRs/OL). Rather, we have a coach that insists on focusing on the D and running game whether that running game is provided by a RB or QB being indifferent. Remember, Cook doesn't run on 3rd-downs.
Our current situation is very unsettling.
BTW, Allen ran twice as much under Brady. His rushing attempts went from 4.7/game to 9.1.
I don’t care about impressive wins-you know who didn’t have a whole lot of impressive wins last year (and even the year before that)? The Chiefs. All that matters is they win the games
