Didn't Brady coach in the SEC? Wasn't his receivers at LSU big, physical types?
It's been well documented that Brady was the assistant to the assistant at LSU. He didn't have say in the offense or personnel. The WR there were Chase and Jefferson.

“My brother knew. I told him ‘I’m gonna go do my two-year sentence up there and I’m gonna come back down South for my last year to tear that s--t up,'" Coleman said on the podcast. "I'm gonna go do what I need to do up there, become the person I need to become, learn what I need to learn. I belong down South."
“After that freshman year, I got to play with some great players, but I just felt like I don’t belong up north," Coleman continued. "I’m an SEC, ACC, I’m a down south type of guy. That’s me."
“I didn’t feel like I really liked the offense. I didn’t feel like the Big Ten system fit me as a player,"
The Bills are entering an era of running a Big Ten offense. It's clear as day with the acquisitions that have come this offseason and how the offense operated when Brady took over.

Which one of these players will retire before or during season?

If taking a flyer on a guy, I would have preferred MVS over Claypool.

No. If we add anyone else, it should be at the very least a Courtland Sutton. Someone who is much more impactful than Slayton IMO…or a surprise veteran who is cut around the leagueDK Metcalf is who Beane needs to get.
He would be AWESOME with Josh Allen.
He’s 26, we could extend him until he’s 31
DK & Keon on the outside with Samuel and Shakir inside and Kincaid as well
that really elevates the group
Slayton is cheaper and a better option for this team than Sutton.

I wonder about Slayton. Will he really play hard ball with the Giants and not report? He would fit in nicely here.

He’s hardly a JAG…He is incredibly talented, and he might be the fastest guy on the team.
That said, his injury history is brutal. If he doesn’t make the team, it’s likely due to medical issues.
23 games, 42 recs, 620 yards, 3 tds. The definition of a JAG.

I don't know about that. This is a sneaky good signing
Lol, its really not. He's tiny and constantly injured. He is a JAG in a league full of these guys.
A guy like Justin Shorter was excellent on special teams and its something Beane mentioned last year when they drafted him.
Unless Hamler can play special teams, he won't be the 6th WR.
I am under the assumption the Bills are adding another body to this group after June 1st.

Unless he is returning kicks, he wont even make team.

Yeah because that is something that just the Bills do right? 31 other teams go through the same thing during the draft. Every pick is not a home run.
Exactly my point. So why are people acting like Beane and the scouts couldn't have missed again in the 2nd? I'm bringing up legit concerns about the player, and I'm told that I'm not a scout or GM so whatever I think it meaningless. So pretty much scouts and Beane never miss so whatever I'm saying is completely wrong because I know nothing.

I forgot. Which team do you scout for???
Definitely not the team that drafted Ford, Basham, and Epenesa in the 2nd round. Or the team that drafted a third RB in the 2nd after drafting RB in the 3rd the prior two of three years. Or the team that drafted Elam in the first round.

I trust Simms' opinion more than anyone's here. So this is encouraging...

Will not forget the BS rumor that Jacksonville didn't want to trade for Aiyuk because it included Zay Jones, lol

Allen texted Coleman on Friday after Beane told him that is who they are taking. Pretty sure Beane alluded to telling Allen who they were taking, not the other way around.
The media has spun this into saying Josh telling Beane he wanted Coleman.

Some people have actually watched a little more than a YouTube video to assess this guy, myself included and to judge a guy's talents only from social media outlets and YouTube is grossly negligent and irresponsible.
Go back and watch full Michigan State and FSU games (you can find them on YouTube.......apparently, you are a YouTube master, so you'll figure it out) and watch the complete package on this guy. It's not always the plays that you see on highlight reels that highlight his skills, but it's the plays he makes that you won't see on social media outlets.......the blocking, slant routes, etc.
That is all i have to say to you, sir.
I dont know why you are knocking youtube, they literally have full game cuts on there. It's no different than what scouts are watching. A cut up scout video is like 20 mins max. There is so much dead time in a football game.
His blocking is hit and miss. Some good blocks, and some poor ones. I did notice that it seemed like he took a few too many plays off for my liking. Every player in the NFL does, but its something I didn't like with Diggs, so I'm not going to like it with Coleman.
I don't know why I'm getting knocked for having an opinion that MANY really good analytic sites are saying. If Keon succeeds, it will be an outlier based on how past WR like him have done. I thought there were more sure bets at WR at 28, who still had flaws, but overall they had the production or tape where you could see it translating.
The overall theme around Keon is a lot lower than what the Bills thought. Generally speaking, Beane has been terrible in the 2nd round.
Not to mention, Beane thought so highly of Keon, that he had no issue giving up control for a 5th year. If Beane thought Keon was going to make multiple pro bowls, he wouldn't have given up that 5th year option. For a guy like Chase, it's saving Cin over 10 million.

So is everyone still against this pick???
Yes, I don't know how anyone can watch this man play football and think he will be successful in the NFL. The dude just runs what looks like half speed out there. His routes are a joke. They are not crisp, they are not sudden, they are not twitchy, they are not precise, and to top it all off, he looks to be in slow motion. I personally think his hands are grossly overrated. Go watch the 22 min video on youtube of him, there are countless balls that are in his hands that he doesn't come down with. I don't know why those aren't counted as drops.
The guy will not win on the outside in the NFL. Sauce Gardner will literally laugh at Coleman trying to get opened. He will be walking out there and able to be in his hip pocket. You think Coleman is going up over Gardner to get a ball?!
This is the type of talent that you will find in the later rounds or even undrafted.
This is just baffling to me scouts watched this man play and came away with the impression he will be a good WR.

Never say never. Let’s see what happens when this 20 year old kid gets NFL coaching.
A coach can't fix his DNA. You think a coach gave Hill his abilities? You are both with these things.

My biggest issue with this pick is he doesn't fit the type of WR Allen will throw to.
Keon is never going to get separation, he just won't. He isn't twitchy enough to do so. He won't be able to learn it and it's not coming with more reps. It's never going to be there.
Will Allen throw to a guy that is considered covered? It's going to take throwing with anticipation because the ball needs to be high before the defender cant get his position or head around.
Allen has never shown the desire to do either of these things on a consistent basis. He would rather run around and wait for a guy to get opened, rather that reading the play and throwing it before guys get separation.
It's just a terrible fit. His ability to win is also going to come from the slot, so now we have ANOTHER slot guy.

My guess is Chosen Anderson. He played under Brady, is a deep threat and cost MIA like a little over a million last year so he is cheap

Powers-Johnson. And there is not a close second choice.
This team already gave the center position to McGovern, its a done deal. I'm not drafting a back up center. That's stupid.

It was driving me nuts, on who McConkey reminds me of and its Cooper Kupp. It's the way they run and create separation. Very similar. Kupp is 2 inches taller, but he plays smaller while McConkey runs a lot faster 40.

Why do so many people say McConkey has a high floor? He has injury concerns, production concerns and size concerns. I dont see that as high floor. I could see him barely seeing the field in the NFL. Maybe I am wrong on him, just never been impressed. Seems like a solid dude that works hard but not a guy that will translate to the nfl unless in the right system.
I see a lot of Copper Kupp in McConkey. They play very similar games.

I had heard about needing to control the diabetes. I wonder how closely related the behavior issues are, and how much is it a convenient excuse. If that is “all it is”, I’m a bit less concerned.
From my understanding, he doesn't take diabetes seriously. Kind of in denial one may say. Changing a mindset like that may be more difficult to deal with.
Bills sign Chase Claypool, Smoot, Jones

It's a little crazy to think that if Claypool's production in year 1 and 2, were actually in year 3 and 4, he would have got a Gabe Davis contract. Instead he just signed for 25k guaranteed, where he can only earn a max of 1.225 million.
