per PFF as of 9 AM Sumday Signings WR Hal Pressley, Baylor WR Kelly Akharaiyi, Mississippi State WR Stephen Gosnell, Virginia Tech TE Keleki Latu, Washington C Jacob Bayer, Arkansas State DI Devin Brandt-Epps, New Mexico DI Paris Shand, LSU EDGE Hayden Harris, Montana CB Daryl Porter Jr., Miami (FL) S Keonta Jenkins, Virginia Tech Minicamp Invites QB Taylor Elgersma, Wilfrid Laurier T DJ Jones, UAB P Ethan Duane, Buffalo LS Mason Napper, Miami (FL)

from PFF Pros Very quick first step for a player of his size Has a baseline for a variety of pass-rush moves Has the length to play 3-4 DE Hand usage is quick despite also very long length Good natural power in his upper body Cons Not a lot of weight in his lower half despite weighing 340 pounds — ankles/calves are skinny High-waisted build makes it tougher for him to sit in his stance with leverage/power Pops up quickly out of his stance

Thought it would be interesting to list who the Bills get based on various mock drafts by the "experts". Here is what I've found so far. Of course a lot depends on who goes 1-29. NFL.com Eric Edholm - CB Trey Amos Chad Reuter - EDGE Mike Green Mike Band - S Malaki Starks Lance Zierlein - EDGE Donovan Ezeiruaku Charles Davis - CB Maxwell Hairston Bucky Brooks - DT Kenneth Grant Daniel Jeremiah - DT Kenneth Grant The Athletic Beat Writers Draft - CB Jahdae Barron (pick by Joe Buscaglia) PFF Mason Cameron - CB Trey Amos CBS Jonathan Jones - CB Maxwell Hairston Ryan Wilson - S Malaki Starks R.J.

I think the Bills FO looked at 2024 as a rebuilding year. They drafted Coleman hoping he would grow into the role. Separation is a skill that can be learned. Coleman does have great body control, which is something that should be able to translate into doing the little things to shake off a player. Now he still has to learn that skill, and obviously hasn't mastered it yet. Davante Adams couldn't separate much early in his career either. At some point (I think it was after year 2) he decided he was going to buckle down and learn it, and he did. Lots of guys MIGHT be able to learn how to separate, but only some of them do. Just like lots of big strong armed guys with accuracy problems MIGHT learn how to be more accurate. Josh Allen did learn it, but not in his rookie year. Wil Levis has not learned it, and neither has Anthony Richardson. The potential is there for Coleman. But he has not realized it yet.

Yeah, after the second attempt got stoned I was assuming there would be some kind of rollout or bootleg or RPO. That was clearly on the coaching, and that would be on Brady. Unless Brady suggested it to McDermott and Sean told him no, just keep doing the simple stuff.

No way would I move on from McDermott.

35-3. And this game is OVER! and it is - for the Oilers. -Chris Berman

Bills 30 Chiefs 21

Bills 20 Ravens 16

Don't underestimate the importance of fantasy football in how people look at things. In my league Lamar out scored Josh by 77 points. Henry outscored Cook by 78 points. For a lot of people, that's all really know about football. And for those people, the discussion is over - Ravens are better. Frankly, if Jackson does get MVP, I think that is the biggest reason.

Saw a post that the Ravens claimed him. He can't be awarded to a team until after the Super Bowl, but since he's a free agent and would likely sign elsewhere, he would count on their free agent gains/lost. If he does sign with somebody it would have to be for very cheap I would think, but if it does help them with picking up a draft pick, even a 7th rounder, it was a shark move.

You mean the Texans get extra rest before traveling to Buffalo. Think positive!

does it look like the guy standing behind the ref is pulling out a microphone to listen in on it?

Except Evans went at 7 and we picked 8. We could have had Beckham though.

I'm not entirely sure it was supposed to be Keon's ball. It was going straight to Ty Johnson and Coleman just managed to get there first. Doesn't diminish Keon's play at all, but I am curious who Josh thought he was throwing it to.

I think there was a season where 2 NFL West teams both finished 11-1-2. It was before the merger

If next Sunday the schedule was Bills at Chiefs, I'd expect the Bills to be a slight favorite. If it was Ravens or Steelers at Chiefs, I'd expect Chiefs to be a slight favorite. Lions or Eagles at Chiefs might also see the road team favored. Anybody else would see the Chiefs with larger spreads. A healthy Hollywood Brown coming onto the field might change things some. Other than that I don't see any big positive needle mover for the Chiefs. Then it will depend on how injuries shake out between now and the playoffs.

Yeah, Mahomes is pissed he spent a couple million on his dream house only to find out he's living next to a Bills fan

Well. if you can't crack the Patriots starting lineup, there's probably not a lot worth looking at.

Henry takes time to build up to top speed - that hurts your 40 time. But once you are chasing him I don't recall seeing anybody catch him from behind.
