lol In some ways, that’s kind of the argument right? Eli’s HoF case is kinda built on what team he beat. If he had beaten some random AFC team x2 and not the Pats/Brady, I think his case is even weaker.

Eli should get in imo but he shouldn’t have been first ballot. It’s kinda funny because I think if he wasn’t a Manning he probably shouldn’t but that’s how it goes.

BPA will probably never be QB whenever we pick. But outside of RB, the pick would be super important if one of those players gets hurt and misses the year.

A legitimately intriguing pass rusher option

I don’t think it’s lazy, just a combo of bias and some other factors. Lamar had the “dual threat QB” tag of the class and Josh Allen also didn’t fit the prototype of a rushing QB. Combine that with most “mobile” QBs either not having the speed or elusiveness to really make a living with it at the NFL level, it’s not THAT surprising to me that it was overlooked.

I think after reading the board for the last 5 or 6 years, it’s pretty jarring to read stuff like this when the common sentiments regarding the Bills successes and failures was previously much more nuanced. How quickly the new status quo is started and maintained probably is a pretty big reason for the vitriol towards Beane.

I’m not sure Evans is that interesting. He is going to be very tough to convince to leave TB under any circumstance. He is arguably their greatest player in franchise history. I doubt he’s interested in making any kind of move.

You said it was “very good,” not incomplete. It’s not “instant gratification culture” to say that the 2025 draft wasn’t great so far. It just wasn’t. Max started 3 games. The only player who actually started almost all year was Walker, who looks very good. Landon Jackson couldn’t get on a jersey for half the year then got injured at a massive position of need where snaps were for the taking. TJ Sanders, who we traded up for btw, was basically a zero but also struggled playing out of position. Hawes had a nice surprise of a year and looks like a good TE2 and Knox replacement. Here’s an actual “good draft” for comparison. 2025 Bears Luther Burden (652 receiving yards, 7th among rookies and 3rd among rookie WRs) Colston Loveland (713 receiving yards, fifth among all rookies and 3rd among rookie TEs) Kyle Monagai (fifth among rookies in rushing yards at pick 233) Ozzy T. (Started at LT for the second half of the year)

I don’t hate going up in a draft to get your guy, but there’s too much riding on getting the pick “right.” back nine of Josh’s career and we are gambling a large chunk on a rookie first rounder to be a difference maker? I’ll pass unless there’s a Julio type prospect and there isn’t.

Did you want McDermott fired after we got to the AFCCG and Josh won MVP?

Mitch is likely saying “why can’t I be the next Darnold” and hey he’s got a point

Didn’t see this posted, but for a guy who left Buffalo on less than ceremonious terms, happy for him to win a Super Bowl as AHC in Seattle. Im not sure how much he is involved in the operation vs the defense in Seattle, but the defense sure looked a lot different that ours was in Frazier’s time.

We did, just after the Chiefs regular season game. I think it was Hairston. But that kinda shows a difference in mentality imo, even for a young guy who wasn’t here for any Chiefs playoff losses.

We lost because we couldn’t score in OT and instead turned the ball over when we could’ve kicked the game winning field goal if our WR could hold onto the ball.

What was Josh’s cap % from 2018-2025 on average?
