They wasted their season keeping him after the playoff collapse. I’d be so mad as a Chargers fan

He has at least 1 INT in 9 straight games and only has 2 games this season without an INT. I don’t think it’s insane to think he’s probably gonna have at least one turnover lol.

a rookie TE with less than 500 yards receiving and an RB that averages a little over 10 touches per game kinda makes my point for me here.

Cole Beasley, John Brown, and Emmanuel Sanders were all a year or two away from being out of the league when they played with Diggs. They are all out of the league now. Arrest yourself, bad take police.

Superbowl media members can stay in the Fredonia dorms.

Get Diggs help. Man has been the only weapon worth defenses to focus on his whole career in Buffalo.

No turnovers? I think we win, but get real

He wasn’t premier, and didn’t fit their timeline

Yeah which means his value currently is a negative. If Elam were traded, we’d at least save money. Same result is no Elam on the field.

Immediately after the season. Exactly my point.

He’s played 165 snaps over 3 games this year, 2 of them bad losses. $3.7M to actually play here would mean more if he actually played here

When did Jerry and Hogan announce their injuries? I think it probably didn’t help his performance, but he was flat out beat by Benford in preseason.

Elam wasn’t even on the injury report until mid-fall, so how does that make any sense? Why come out and say this now when he’s been on IR for a month? You know when we hear about terrible lingering injuries that were mysteriously absent weeks prior? After they play crappy and we get knocked out of the playoffs. Diggs and Beasley play terrible? Oh, they were actually just super injured! Sure. Everyone is hurt, it’s the NFL. Elam has a sprained ankle. Not a unique injury

I don’t see that high of a pick as a need for a guy who almost certainly won’t start. Our CB room is actually pretty roomy. I think Douglas and Benford are penciled in as starters. Anything above a third would surprise me, even if Tre is cut.

Do we really need Tre to prevent us from drafting CB early? He won’t play week 1, and won’t round into form for a while, so I’m not sure how that’s helpful. Dane Jackson would be the one preventing us from drafting a CB early, imo.

Player makes injury sound worse months after playing horrible to preserve some shreds of reputation. Common tactic. Gabe’s lingering hamstring is up next.

Option #1 because Brandon Beane and McD seem to believe he is a good WR2 and for that reason, he needs to get jettisoned from this team so they can replace him with someone better. I see Panthers, Texans or Colts as the most likely destinations. Try to maximize their weapons around the young QB with cap to burn. If they don’t do their homework, they will be scratching their head wondering why Gabe only has 800 yards as WR1.

Josh has blocking. They may want to draft an OT relatively high to prepare for life after Dawkins, or a C for life after Morse, but there is not a glaring need on OL imo. WR is number one priority. Should have been #1 priority last year too. They tried to skimp with Harty and Sherfield and it was a predictable disaster. By the same token, if they have a stud OT, or stud CB or even EDGE player waiting around their 1st pick, and the WR value isn’t there, I won’t kill them for targeting a better player. 1 WR taken in the top 4 rounds since 2018 is criminal. No doubt about it. But 1 CB taken in the top 4 rounds since 2018 is not criminal, based on positional value alone. That’s pretty much my point.

Your speculation is wrong. in 2017, the Saints had a declining Drew Brees when they took Lattimore. The Raiders had Derek Carr, a guy who at best, is just at the line of not good enough. Titans took Jackson and they were still trying to figure out what Mariota was. I can do this forever. I think Tre White over Mahomes was a gaffe. Don’t get me wrong. I just don’t think it’s some conspiracy to over draft CB’s. I think McD and co. didn’t want to pull the trigger on a QB when they had only Whaley info to base it off of. Not unreasonable, despite still being a mistake. You want to talk strengths? McD’s system turned Poyer and Hyde, fringe solid FA’s into two of the best safeties in the NFL. McD took a fifth round pick in Milano and made him a star. He wrung every drop of production out of bums and UDFA in Levi Wallace and EJ Gaines, got a guy like Christian Benford to execute his system. His greatest strength is his DB room. No wonder you don’t like him lol PFR is annoying and lists them as DB just to screw with me

2017: 6 CB's in the first round 2018: 3 CB's 2019: 1 CB 2020: 6 CB's 2021: 0 CB's 2022: 4 CB's 2023: 1 CB Now, with all of those numbers, and the Bills only having made two of those 21 first round picks, I think we can all agree that the fascination of the first round CB selection is not some unique Bills Marvy Levy Dick Jauron voodoo.

I'm pretty confident they will go 1-2 between Ravens, Cowboys and Jets. Wouldn't be surprised to see 0-3 tbh.

Miami has to lose two of those games if the Bills lose 1, right?

Bring back Tre, bring in an FA, bring back Dane, and move Benford to safety is your positional plan rather than just bring in a safety and keep Benford at CB? Not sure your plan makes much sense.

You trade him post 6/1 and save a couple million. Conditional 7th type deal.

Beford is locked in at CB2, I think. A rehabbed Tre may not even be ready for season start. You don’t bank on a 29 year old CB coming off his second major injury in a row, and move the starter to a different position. They will not do this, even if they keep Tre (which they probably won’t)
