  1. EJ Gaines likely gets us a 4th round comp pick, if he signs for North of $8M per. If it comes in between $6-8M he'll fetch us a 2019 5th. Matthews will probably be in the 5th/6th range. If it's over $6M per it'll be a 5, south of 6 per and it'll be a 6th. Preston Brown, same as Matthews, a 5th or 6th. My prediction: 4th for Gaines 5th for Matthews (If healthy) 6th for Brown Root for big contract. Any FA we sign will cancel out one of the above players. So the team has to ask itself is this player worth giving up a 4th/5th or 6th in 2019 over just signing a cut player or a UDFA.
  2. Wow, thanks for pointing that out. That is awfully low.....I think they have Jordan Matthews market at north of $8M per. I'm no Sammy fan, but I'd consider it an upset if Matthews finds more $$$ in the FA market than Sammy. I think Sammy's worst case is a 1 yr. prove it deal in the $7-$8M range. Availability has really stunted his value, I guess, makes sense.
  3. Don't like it. If the D interferes with a WR 7 yards down field now the offense get a 15 yard penalty. Fans will rightfully b*tch. If the D interferes with a WR 47 yards down field the offense only advance the ball 15 yards. Fans will rightfully b*tch Like others have said....if a CB gets roasted deep coaches will be teaching their corners and safeties to simply maul the WR, take the 15 yard penalty and live to see another day. One of the most exciting plays in football is the deep bomb for a TD...and this rule change, will make that play happen far less. Why? Hate it.
  4. The Jaguars game was one of the worst QB performances I've seen in a long time. The Saints game was up there too. The Panthers game was right there. There's just too many games where Tyrod totally fails. It's very obvious to anybody with 2 objective eyeballs, that he is nothing more than a slightly below avg. bridge QB. Man I just started thinking about that Panthers game.....boy was that painful.
  5. If your plan is to draft a QB, why not just let Bortles play out his 1 yr contract. Extending him is the "safe" aka bad move for the Jags.
  6. Darnold or Rosen and I'm buying into the Bills future big time. Not sure anyone elae out there really moves the needle for me.
  7. As a Bills fan, tahnk you Dolphins. It's moves like this I hope our new regime avoids and our AFC East opponents make. $16M for a guy who has trouble breaking 10 YPC, and overall just seems to be a knucklehead. I'm not sure I'd want him on my team at half that price, honestly.
  8. I don't happen to think Patrick DiMarco, Vlad Ducasse, or Ryan Davis were worth forgoing the 2 mid round picks, do you? You think those 3 were what put the Bills over the top? You think the Bills could've signed comparable talent had they waited post June 1 or signed players that were cut or were those 3 UFAs must haves? Think through your arguments before posting uninformed sarcastic stupidity. If you don't think 3rd and 5th round picks are extremely valuable assets you're a dumber fan than most.
  9. After watching and seeing how McDermott totally botched it last yr. lets hope Beane won't do the same. I'd really like to have the additional 3rd and 5th this coming draft for losing Gilmore and Woods.....oh well.
  10. The most important trait in a QB prospect IMO is accuracy. Jackson's accuracy is not very good which IMO will keep him from ever being a high quality QB
  11. He looks slow, like 4.65 slow, so I'd expect him to be there in the middle rounds.
  12. If any and I mean any of Doug Pederson's aggression of 4th down and overall embrace of statistics rubbed off on Reich he'll be a helluva coach.
  13. I remember watching highlight films of Ragland after we drafted him and noticing all the plays Foster was making. Then I watched this clip of film on ESPN and thought to myself.......Nah, wouldn't want this guy on my team. Dumb enough to smoke pot 2 weeks out from the combine that comes with the lame I drank too much to get to weight excuse. You know how else you can gain weight? Eat a **** load of steak and ice cream if you want to pack on a few lbs. The amount of water you have to drink to hgave a diluted sample is absurd. Also dude got in a fight with a nurse at the hospital....a fight that was so disrespectful they sent his ass packing...... Not surprised at all.
  14. I think Darnold is and will be the apple of the Bills brass eye. I think the murmurs you've heard recently of the Bills liking Rosen are smoke that is being put out intentionally. Rosen's durability issues and his lack of pocket presence are concerns I don't see the Bills selling the farm to go get. Darnold, OTOH, I think he's a future top tier QB in the NFL. I think the sweet spot for the Bills to trade up is in the #2-#7 spots. If, and I think it's a huge if, the Browns pass on Darnold I'd expect the Bills to being working the lines hard. With all of the other teams that need a QB, and my view of Darnold as the best QB, I think it's going to be tough to leapfrog so many teams that might be also looking to trade up. In the end I think the Browns will select Darnold #1, which to me ends the possibility of the Bills making a huge move up in the draft. As for Baker Mayfield.....not a fan.
  15. Jimmy Garoppolo went #62 in the '14 draft. We took EJ #17 in '14. It's all about picking a good player and developing that talent
  16. Sean McDermott and the Bills have no use for math, they go based on "feel". That's why we rarely attempt 4th and short, never go for 2 pt. conversions. This group of bozos is as behind the curve as you can be. I blame it on the Pegulas though, they're the ones that go out and hire these people that totally ignore data. I think Terry is more impressed that Sean was a decorated wrestler and wears a cross around his neck. That's all good and well....but go get me the guy that understands and embraces the math.
  17. Eagles prob. have a good feel that Reich is not the man in Indy. It seems that Leslie Frazier has the inside track. The Pats strike again.
  18. I'm curious to see how it turns out for you, let us know after the '18 season ends. I do know if you work stubhub properly and buy tickets late you'll likely save $$$. Tickets in late Nov. And Dec. Are always dirt cheap.
  19. That would really be messed up from the Bills stand point. It's one thing to lose a coordinator, when you kind of see it coming and you have the time to find a replacement when coaches are available to be interviewed. At this stage it's like getting stood up at the altar. This McDaniels is a real pissant
  20. Nick Foles has no interest playing anywhere other than Philly. He'll either hold the clipboard behind Wentz in '18 or move on from football.
  21. Brady is the best ever. My hate for the Pats has dissipated in the last few yrs. as I realized he will be talked about as the best ever for a very long time and I can say I was there to see it all. Still root for them to lose, but the hate almost blended to a slight admiration from afar.
  22. I wish this was true, but unfortunately the Pegulas didn't hire an aggressive coach. I absolutely loved what Pederson did in the SB, to the point of being envious of Eagles fans. A coach like that is more important to a team than any one player, outside of a premier QB is. I don't think Mcdermott even has half the cajones that the Eagles coach has, and it's a shame too.
  23. Hats off to the Eagles. One of the best performances by a head coach I've ever seen. The aggression on 4th down and his play calling was pure beauty. With that said how do you think Lions fans are feeling right now knowing Matt Patricia is their new HC? That defense stinks......and it stunk vs. the Jaguars. That hire looks really bad right about now.
  24. Smart move and an easy call I think. Denver or one of those teams will give up a draft pick. It comes down to: does every single team interested in Cousins opt to say let's screw the Redskins salary cap and force them to pay Cousins......or does 1 team say, "screw it we need a QB so bad, I care more about our success than screwing the Redskins, give them our 3rd rounder this yr." I'd bet big time on the latter. Redskins still have leverage if they apply the franchise tag so they should.
