There’s too much stiff competition.
I think he just felt like he’d done enough drilling.-

it’s not a required event, and frankly agents could put on any workout style event they want for their players in the off-season. The top handful of agencies could easily collaborate to create an open practice week, instead of hijacking the practice sessions for a game.
I suspect you’ll see exactly that in the near future. -

This is a blown title.

I don't think he's that good.
He’s Tua with a better arm. I could see him having a Derick Carr type career. -

If you are going to the senior bowl and all the practices, you shouldn’t be able to opt out of the game. It should be a requirement for the invitation.
I think the leverage is finally just shifting towards college players. Probably inevitable and maybe overdue.-

You’d like it to be harder?-

The Senior Bowl’s practice sessions have relevance to the scouting of the assembled players. For some players, participating in the practices is enough.
This year, plenty of players won’t be playing in the game.
Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr. has decided not to play, we’re told, even though he was supposed to start for the National squad. Oregon quarterback Bo Nix will play only a couple of series. That leaves Notre Dame quarterback Sam Hartman to take the bulk of the snaps for the National team.
Thoughts?

And a quote from Todd Downing. All the big hitters. I think I'd rather eat soap than read that.
Some of your best work, this thread.-

We took Oliver 9th...Metcalf went end of 2nd round. How are these two being compared? And wow, is it easy to know who to pick when you have seen the future. You should be a GM since you clearly knew who each stud was going to be in the 2nd round of drafts before they were picked.
To be fair, at the time, the OP wanted Metcalf instead at 9. However, he has been in our ears about it ever since, albeit using different user names to better mask the crusade.

Ok, so we know Wood is an agent of OBD now. If he’s saying this, you can bet that’s the prevailing notion behind the scenes
Ok - but what of the fact that many of us have been saying for three years what is now the “prevailing notion” at OBD? Is that a talent issue or a front office issue?

Other than WR and S, the Bills problem isn’t talent or coaching, it’s depth.
When you look at the Bills, we have good to excellent starters at most positions. On offense we have a franchise QB, a star RB, depth at TE, a solid Oline with depth (Bates, Doyle, Anderson and Van Denmark) an up and coming slot receiver in Shakir and Diggs (a No. 2 receiver). On defense we have three very good corners in Benford, Johnson and Douglas, good to excellent starting LB’s in Benard and Milano, and two very good DL in Rousseau and Oliver.
Injuries this season on defense exposed our lack of depth and it cost us. Beane spent so much on DL that he neglected everything else until grabbing Douglas at the trade deadline. Rapp was our only effective Safety depth and the kids Williams and Spector didn’t play much at LB until season’s end. At CB only Dane Jackson was the depth as 1st rd bust Elam rarely saw the field.
As of right now, the kids at LB plus Elam return. We have also lost much of the depth Beane created on the DL to FA. We need to pray that Miller steps up next season to be at least somewhat effective. With Hyde retiring and Rapp a FA, only Poyer remains at safety. Beane has his work cut out for him to retool the DL and safeties. He also needs to build depth at CB if Dane Jackson doesn’t return. What a mess.
With our 1st 3 picks we need a WR to replace Davis, a Safety to replace Hyde and a DT to replace DaQuan Jones. We also need more talent at WR, an Edge rusher to replace Floyd and Epenesa, plus help at RB, safety and CB. If the Bills are to stay at the top of the AFC East, Beane is going to have to have the draft of his life, get lucky again on some vet minimum contracts and hope his starters mostly stay healthy.
Sorry but this is 100% wrong. The Bills proved this year that they have more than adequate depth. What they need are a few more difference-makers - elite players who can win their matchups and overcome the scheme.

2 is a little ridiculous imo…they had to claw for every single inch on that last drive. It wasn’t the smooth sailing your claiming it to be at all. Kc defense was very stout all second half. If you’ve got a wide open td I don’t think you can pass that up honestly. That underneath throw to diggs almost assuredly brings up a 4th down attempt
if he threw some kind of 50/50 jump ball on that second down play then I’d agree with that take a little more but he absolutely made the right read there imo
if Dawkins holds up like 0.2 seconds more we probably win that game
The Shakir throw was the least of it - I am ok with taking the shot if you see it. But the rest of the play calling was scattershot, they needed to be far more methodical. -

He did not play his best on Sunday, no doubt. And last year he didn't either but he was hurt and playing with one arm. But he is one of our best players, he has had a great year and the famous 13 second game he was probably our best defensive player and was in Mahomes's face a lot.
Saying he is an average rotational player because of one disappointing game and one game where he was playing with one arm is ridiculous.
The OP has had it out for Oliver for years, it's become a crusade because his opinion won't change even after an All Pro-level season. Facts don't matter.
Turning to the actual topic - they definitely need a talent infusion but it was an either/or situation this year. Better coaching and better discipline and they still could've gotten past KC and perhaps Baltimore. Both Josh and Sean showed immaturity/fantasy-based decision-making at key junctures in the Divisional Round:
1) The fake punt - had no issue with the call itself, but I am like 85% sure that McD had visions of the articles that would be written about him if he successfully called Hamlin's number on a critical game-changing play.
2) The post-two minute warning offense - Allen had the game in hand by playing within structure and taking what the defense was offering, then came back from the two minute warning determined to win the game by himself. No doubt he had visions of a walk-off TD pass. Instead, it was season over.
Both Allen and McD need to grow from that last game. And they need more talent, there's no question about it. It's both.

Since the Bills are keeping McDermott, this is an obvious one to me. Got the same production with less turnovers per game and brought more balance and run game. Reducing the turnovers is how Buffalo can go from 2 seed to 1 seed next year.
No. Increasing the explosives is how they can get the one seed.-

The Ravens’ coaches have Darby coming up hard in run support - that is impressive.

I hate this. I don't necessarily hate that Brady got the job. But I hate that the team didn't even attempt to complete a full and exhaustive search. We're just running it back. McDermott loves playing it safe. It's what holds him back as a coach more than anything.
It’s not just McD. I keep looking for ANY sign of accountability in either of Pegula’s sports franchises and I haven’t seen a single one since Kim’s unfortunate health issue. Seems like the Bills and Sabres are both flying on autopilot.-

Bills to add Ronald Curry as quarterbacks coach (updated)
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
When he was on the Raiders, a poster here suggested the Bills target him in FA because the Bills' WR coach at the time was Sanjay Lal and "he'd know how to get the most out of Curry."
Still cracks me up to this day.
