I saw one guy who covers the NFL, can’t remember his name… he had Solomon as the break out player of the year for the Bills. So would be a little shocked if he didn’t make the roster. EDIT: I hadn’t read through the whole thread when I posted at first. I see in a post above me that check the mic had him as a breakout player, there was also someone else I believe that listed him as well.

I became a Bills fan during the night Allen got drafted to the Bills only because I’m originally from Wyoming and an alum there. I had a different favorite NFL team all my other years. I was actually a Redskins/Commanders fan my whole life and became one as a 6 year old watching them in the Super Bowl in 1983 beat Miami with John Riggins running on them. Became a huge Riggins fan and Joe Gibbs fan and was my whole life but became a Bills fan the night they drafted Josh. I still root for the Commanders but not like I used to after Buffalo drafted Josh. Any time they played the Bills I would still be a Bills fan because of Josh and have rooted for the bills against them when they have played Main reason I root for the Bills now and they are my favorite team is because of Josh and his association to Wyoming. Once he is done playing I can’t say for sure I’ll still be a Bills fan or go back to the Commanders. I usually stick with my same team but for now I’m a Bills fan because of Josh. I have good reason though since I’m from Wyoming. I’m not a bandwagon fan just because the Bills became good. I would still root for them as long as Josh was here. Of course if the Bills were bad Josh probably wouldn’t still be here. The longer I’m a Bills fan the greater the chance of me sticking with them after he leaves but he would have to play his whole career here for any chance of that. Which I’m sure he will. I normally would never switch favorite teams but this was a special circumstance. Most Wyoming fans are Broncos fans but a lot of them are Bills fans now also.

Biggest difference is that Jones vertical was 38.5 and Prathers is only 30.

I’m not saying I’m in love with Moore but he has proven “Moore” than Coleman has. The average drop rate for a receiver or TE in the NFL is 6.7% of catchable balls. Coleman had almost twice that of a drop rate. He was targeted 33 times and dropped 4 of them. Plus his route running hasn’t been the best. You may say well it’s only 4 dropped balls but when it’s almost twice that of the average receiver it’s a big deal. If he gets targeted more than 33 times and his drop rate stays the same then it’s going to be a problem. Moores drop rate was only 4.9% which is below the league average and he had 61 receptions last year to Coleman’s 29 and Moore had far worse QB’s. Yeah Coleman missed a couple games but he wasn’t getting anywhere close to 61 receptions. I am hoping Coleman steps up and is great by all means. My point is so far he hasn’t proven much of anything based on actual advanced stats. I want the best receivers on the team out there. If that’s Coleman by all means step up and show it. I am not biased on who the starting receivers are as long as they do their jobs.

I didn’t say he was getting cut. He most likely is the 5th receiver. They have brought in 2 guys better than him this off-season based on what they have proven in the NFL and Samuel's has also proven a lot more in the league than Coleman has. He also wasn’t the 2nd best receiver. He may have ended up with the 2nd most yards or whatever but his overall efficiency was terrible! He will most likely make the team but he isn’t making it above the 4 other guys I listed. Lots of people seem to think Moore is going to have a chance to get cut and there is no way that is happening. They didn’t bring him in to get cut when he has proven FAR more than Coleman has and did it with a lot worse QB’s. Not laughable at all. I’ll repeat what I posted to someone else.

I’ve already said it in another thread. Coleman is the receiver fighting for the final roster spot. Shakir, Palmer, Moore, Samuels are all making it. 5th spot will be between Coleman and whoever else. Beane and McDermott were not happy with him. He is not a lock to make the team as many seem to think IMO. Unless he really really makes a jump from last year.

No such thing as strength of schedule. plenty of the teams from last year that were good won’t be good this season and teams that were bad will be better. Everyone always tries to predict stuff based on the previous season and it never even comes close to what they think. So all of the strength of schedule stuff is meaningless and pointless. No one thought San Francisco was going to have all of those injuries last year and miss the playoffs. No one thought the Vikings were going 15-2 with Sam Darnold before the year started. Lots of people thought the Bills were going to have a tough year and Miami or the Jets would be good. So no one knows how tough or easy the schedule will be until games are being played. I do think the law of averages starts catching up to KC, especially losing the Super Bowl, also having been there 3 years in a row, winning ALL of those close games last year, Kelce being another year older, they will have a down year next year compared to what they usually do. I would take the Under on their win total as easy money. Plus Chargers and Broncos “should” be tougher against them. Doubt Mahomes misses the playoffs but if they did it wouldn’t be a shocker to me at all. Kinda like 49ers this last year after having a Super Bowl hangover. Chiefs were trying to go for 3 in a row last year and put a lot into it. I could see them having a major Super Bowl loss hangover going into this season.

I’m a huge Allen fan but nobody is like Jordan was. Jordan was the most competitive person ever. No one comes close. David Blaine was trying to do a card trick with him and Jordan tried to cheat with that because he didn’t want to get fooled on a stupid card trick. Yeah Jordan would make stuff up because that who he is. Most of the guys are competitive but not to Jordan’s level.

This is false. Moore definitely isn’t fighting for the 5th WR spot. He will be starting. Palmer, Shakir, and Moore are the 3 best receivers on the team. Shakir will always be number 1 as far as Josh is concerned but Moore or Palmer could be 2nd or 3rd. They both have already proved they can play in the league. The Bills didn’t bring him in to be the 5th receiver. Samuel also will be in the top 4 if he plays like he did the last third of the season from last year and the fact he has already proven he can play in the league. Right now Keon is going to have to be the one to prove himself as he had a major drop off 2nd half of last season and Beane and McDermott were not happy with him. Can he play well enough to jump any of these other guys? Maybe but he is in the 5th position right now, I don’t care if they took him as their top pick last year. He has to prove a lot more.

The answer is we don’t know until the season starts. Teams will be a lot different this year just like every year.

I disagree. Beane knew this guy was coming in to talk because he knows more than some dopes on the radio and fans bitching about stuff and all of the dealings that fans aren’t privy to. Media and fans that complain need to STFU and let men hired to do the job do it. If fans ran the team it would be a big a nightmare.

If the Bills had a halfway decent defense they would have won the Super Bowl last year. Bills scored more than the Bengals on offense without two stud wide receivers.

Yeah or everybody eats.

Beane is shaking his magic 8 ball (not the black one, the white one 👃💨)in the draft room. He is going to take Bond with the next pick..

I would laugh at the board meltdown if the Bills selected another DT with their next pick. Beanie should just keep taking defensive tackles with every last pick in the draft for the comedy aspect of it. I think they will probably go WR though.

I’m not against another guy to stretch the field by any means. It would definitely help in certain situations. Im just happy with what they are doing on the defensive side of the ball though. Or at least trying to do. We will see if they take a WR today at any point. If they feel anybody left has value. They can always get someone before camp doing different things. So all is not lost on getting another receiver yet.

I agree! That’s what makes it fun to laugh at and also you know we are having a great draft because the board hates most of the picks.

You do know the Bills offense last year was one of only 5 teams to ever average over 3 points per play over the entire history of the NFL. They were the only team to score 30 touchdowns running and 30 passing ever in the history of the NFL and they averaged about 31 points per game. You aren’t going to be able to “open up” the offense or score much more than that. The defense is the problem. The offense isn’t going to score a lot more points just because They add one more speedy receiver. The defense can’t be giving up 30 ppg every time in the AFC championship game.

Be hilarious if he didn’t get drafted at all.

This guy is going to be one hell of a special player in Buffalo. Will be an all pro. The reason I know is because 90% of the board hates this pick. If we can just get everybody to hate every pick in the draft that the Bills take then we might never lose another game.

I think it’s a great pick. One of the top CB in the SEC and fast enough to cover Worthy even though they play a zone more than not. Love his speed

Bills should take Johnson or Hairston.

I was thinking more to get one of the CB’s because there are less good ones than there are defensive linemen.

Saw where Bills might trade up with Steelers and lose pick 56 but get pick 21 and 83. Steelers get 30,56, 113 or something like that. Not sure that will happen just another rumor.

Bills will be taking a CB with their pick no matter where it is IMO. They will do the DLine at pick 56 unless it gets traded away.
