  1. We drafted Tre White at 27…
  2. There might be certain positions where you can take an athlete with poor instincts and mold them - TE, defensive line come to mind. Corner is not one of them.
  3. FWIW, Football Outsiders has Devonta as the highest WR prospect by far, and one of the top WR prospects they've ever charted. They're not very high on Waddle. (ESPN+ paywall/subscription required etc.).
  4. Good stuff. Really hard to do a mock so I’m always impressed with the thought that goes into it. My Tuesday morning coaching: I’m not buying Mac Jones to SF. I cannot fathom them trading up that high for a fringe first round prospect with no elite traits. The pick HAS to be fields or lance. Pitts likely goes top 5 and no way makes it past Miami or Detroit. Ossai is a round 2-3 prospect IMO. I still think Chase to Cindy, Smith to Miami. And Smith is the better prospect, don’t care about his weight. He’s Gold Jacket-level good. I think Toney falls out of Round 1. Production and speed just aren’t there and you at least need one.
  5. I read somewhere that he had the second best (lowest) passer rating in non-pressure situations. I think he'll be a player.
  6. Assume mean heaviest as in fattest, not that they drink more. Right?
  7. Dude has been on the trade block most of his career.
  8. A hooker, an outlaw, and a lamp walk into a bar…
  9. I’ll say this - if they pass on this guy because of Cody Ford and he turns into an All Pro, that will make THREE All Pro players - Metcalf, Teller and Liam - passed up on for the sake of Cody Ford. Would be a damn shame.
  10. Not me. This is not a Horatio Alger novel where “the little lad learns life’s lessons” and it all gets tied up with a bow at the end. A playoff win in Houston might’ve helped this franchise grow even faster than it did, attract more free agents, build the confidence they need to beat KC, etc. Or they could’ve gone on a run and won a Lombardi? Life is too short for the shenanigans that go on with NFL officiating.
  11. You recall incorrectly.
  12. I see you missed the pun. I will solicit laughs elsewhere.
  13. Coverage, run support - he’ll do it all so long as you pay him.
  14. Really? I think the discussion here seems pretty plugged in.
  15. If Pitts makes it to Dallas they're sprinting to the podium. They aren't interested in an off-ball linebacker.
  16. Let me get this straight: you want to use a first-round pick on a GOAL LINE BACK?
  17. Or maybe they’re coming to terms with the opportunity cost of their mis-evaluations and they’re doubling down on trying to be right? Trading up for Ford cost the Bills a much better player at a premium position in Metcalf. They then traded away Wyatt Teller a few months later, likely figuring that Ford would, at worst, be an upgrade at guard. That’s TWO All Pro players the Bills passed on/expelled for the sake of Cody Ford. The problem isn’t Bills fans..
  18. I don't think Ford makes it to 2022 on the Bills' roster. Once he fails to win the starting job in early September the writing will be on the wall. He's going to wash out. He's just not very good.
  19. And he was legit fast. The little guys make me nervous. Cannot see Beane taking a sub-6’ receiver in Round 1, unless that prospect just dominated top competition and even then. That wouldn’t fit with Beane’s “hit it down the fairway” approach and frankly it would be a bad pick. No one is going to feel sorry for the GM who wasted a high pick on a smurf wide receiver.
  20. Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore— While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door— Only this and nothing more.”
  21. The Bills right now have two fundamental problems. Problem 1 is finding a way to beat KC, who thoroughly outclassed them twice last season. Problem 2 is keeping pace with New England, who loaded up in free agency and is going to feature an offense that tries to dominate the middle of the field. A first round running back solves neither of these problems for Buffalo. Worse, if Beane looks at his roster and thinks the best way to beat KC is to run the ball more to keep Mahomes off the field, Beane is a field general making a fatal strategic error. The Bills need to find a way to affect the passing game more than they did in 2020. That means a better passrush and better coverage over the middle of the field. The Bills also need to find a way to make their offense even more dangerous and prolific - they need playmakers with speed. Harris is not the solution to the Bills’ issues, not at all.
