some people thought winning by 42 instead of 35 was a bit of salt in the wound Ah you beat me to it. My “starting to believe” moment was the throw to John Brown to win the Jets game, season opener 2019. Thought to myself, “Self, that was a very unBillsy thing that just happened.”

When the people demand cuts in spending, police, teachers and firemen go first. That'll learn you.

Defer to when? Next game?

He seems less of a process guy than an indictment guy from what I recall on the Team.

Miami still owes me a decade for sitting through the 70s. f*** em thru 2029.

Why offensive assistants? Do they believe they are more easily offended?

I agree that Beane has a philosophy of using draft trades to align BPA or at least BPA tier with need. That said, from the sounds of the scouting class it seems like the sweet spot of the draft will not be at the top end or late round depth, but rounds 2-4. These are players in a range where absolutely they will challenge hard for the 53. I would hope Beane will try to maximize value here, and not try to move up for fewer players or down for PS guys who would be poached. The low round draft capital doesn’t move the needle on day 1 or day 2. Also there’s always a few unexpected picks and reaches at the top, at least, as long as the Raiders are still in the league. It could go a couple ways: 1) Nobody they love at 25 and trade down for day 2 capital. 2) Someone they love at 25 and draft him. 3) A few guys they love at 25 and trade down. I don’t see the Bills using day 2 capital to move up on day 1. They ought to be looking to add younger (cheaper) contracts at any/all of CB, IOL, WR, LB, RB, S. One scenario I actually wouldn’t hate is if there’s a position slide (QB?) and a team wants to jump from the top end of the 2nd up to 25, offering next years 1. Basically giving the 5th year option in exchange for draft value. All of that Allen draft maneuvering would not have been necessary if they had traded with Houston instead of KC - the future 1 (+#25o) that the Texans gave to move to 12 for Watson ended up being #4 overall the next year, as opposed to the future 1 from KC (+#27o). If a team that projects to be craptastic next year makes an offer of a future 1, that plays into building for continued success which Beane is always speaking to. The Bills are finally in a position with a fairly loaded roster to maximize assets and let value come to them rather than reaching and chasing (Travares Tillman, Cyrus Kouandijo, John McCargo, Aaron Maybin, etc etc) as the traditionally competitive teams like Baltimore and Pittsburgh have done. More or less, the Polian way.

From early on Allen did things like hard counts and try to take advantage of the Offside for big plays. He was always a QB, not an athlete with an arm being a dilettante at the position. Dont practice till you get it right - practice till you can’t get it wrong.

Answering the question, what might AC/DC sound like with Keith Moon.

I’m not a RB in the top 3 guy, but Kenny Walker on the board at 57 was kinda sticking out for me. I can see them try to pop 3 or 4 spots to get Hall potentially.

See you in the regular season, then.

Would be amazing to have Willis slide to 25 and someone offers the Losman (2 plus next year’s 1)

Jeremiah mocks Drake London at #10 to NYJ to play Big Slot. That will be a novel offense with Berrios at Small Slot and Moore at Regular Slot. I’m not going to put a lot of stock in his knowledge of team needs in general, or the Bills in particular.

Might need that safe after all…

As an OL prospect, Ford has been much more of sinker than a floater.

Another good compilation. Apart from the punt-catching and defenders falling, look at the separation he gains at the top of the routes. That’s what the guy with “uncoverable inside 10 yards” comment pages back was alluding to. The question will be, will he and Allen read zones the way Allen and Beasley did, that would be nearly unstoppable. Crowder always destroyed man coverage like Beasley never did.

Kind of reinforces my impression of him. Very effective slot guy, very sharp on his cuts as evidenced by the number of defensive players falling over themselves at the top of his routes. First down machine. If the Bills get the Crowder who plays against the Bills they lose nothing in the slot from 2020 and upgrade over 2021.

depends what was for dinner last night… this is kind of a consolation prize but it’s going to be Duke or moss I think. There’s a number of draftable prospects for the JDM role.

Agree with most of above but I think they like Doyle for swing.

I’m hoping the personnel turnover points to Dorsey’s offensive philosophy being one that doesn’t predispose to a tendency based on personnel grouping. The ability to attack with run or pass, short or deep, from each package makes the offense very difficult to defend.

I guess the Bills held out for Keenum? The other QB there, 7th would have been an overpayment lol.

Couple teams though Keenum was a long-term answer. Until he wasn’t. But short-term he can give you a chance.

AJ actually has sudden-ness off the line but fails to press his advantage due to either lack of strength or lack of technique. If it's more the latter, then this is the guy I would expect Miller's leadership to influence most positively.

It lacks the flourish of "computer-designed CRISPR-edited lab-grown bioengineered homunculus QB superunit" but it's succinct.

In the off-season Rex cannot be defeeted.
