And it took him a couple of years to be comfortable making calls.

I do, I don't potentially screw the defense this year for a pick that may or may not pan out. I don't think Edmunds is bad and I take issue with people who think he can be replaced with a rookie without significant dropoff.

Because our D is predicated on long armed corners who contribute in the run game. The 1st round has a few CBs who fit the bill as well as being outstanding in coverage, but they are expected to be gone by pick 20ish, so you're looking at good coverage corners in the 2nd who don't fit the scheme/body type that our HC looks for and is an expert in. If there is one position you trust McDermott to develop it should be corner, we've been getting by with a UDFA at CB2 with late rounders backing him up. Value for CB is good in the 3rd round with several players who fit "our type" of CB and it would be a reach to pick them in the 2nd. You can't just plus in a list of positions and say "well we need a Guard the most so we draft the best G rd 1, then we take a CB, then a LB." This isn't like madden where you can just smash a square peg into a round hole. If you're looking for an early round G I'd suggest you look at their RAS score because we are dropping the plodding large men and moving to highly athletic OL

I would pass on the trade and just draft Lloyd in the 1st, WR/RB in the 2nd and CB in the 3rd and Bob's your uncle. No need to trade away your defensive signal caller in the middle of a superbowl window, I'd rather just get a comp pick.

This guy is Marcel 2.0. He has all the physical talent in the world but has no interest in putting in the hard work needed to be a great player. He has had weight issues forever. I'd recommend watching the lockedon pod where they go in on his issues in college at length.

Matching an RFA means you can only sign him to the exact contract the Bears offered. The restructure would be necessary and couldn't be done up front if they wanted some cap relief.

This is some really pathetic energy here. The point being that by opening her mouth and creating a distraction she is in fact doing the opposite of helping her husband, but lacks the self awareness to realize it. Unless her goal is to talk her husband off the team, in which case I'd say the fans are right to be annoyed with her. Her looks have literally nothing to do with anything. I'm starting to view her as I view Eugene Parker, who cost us a pretty decent safety that no one wanted to lose at the time either. This FO has shown that they don't like things negotiated in public, they prefer things to be kept in-house. If Poyer wants a new deal, he has Rosenhaus approach the FO. If they FO says no to a raise, he has three choices: play out his remaining year, engage in childish antics claiming he won't play absent a new deal, or he can ask for a trade, in which case complaining publicly lowers the likelihood of him moving because it lowers his trade value. Beane isn't about option 2 and the majority of fans in Buffalo will immediately turn on the player for messing with our Super Bowl window. Team Poyer's best move is to shut up, negotiate quietly and if things fall apart, quietly ask for a trade. That is, if he actually cares about the team that gave him a chance to develop into a very good player and the fans who have only supported him, as he purports to. Look at Diggs, we never even knew something was being negotiated and he never complained about anything, then he got paid.

I'd take any of the top 6 corners in the 1st. I'd trade up a bit in the second to get 7-8. Other than that I'd just wait til the 3rd.

Well his value is as high as it's ever going to be. Package him, our first and next year's second to get to 7 with the Giants and just draft Hamilton if he's on the board that late. I'm a Poyer fan, but I can't stand people who negotiate in public. Diggs kept quiet and got paid. The only thing bush is doing is turning fans against her husband.

Hold up, she talked smack about Hyde?

Getting really tired of all these simps on twitter white knighting poyer and saying he deserves to be paid more and tagging Bush? Absolute creeps.

Correct, this is a regurgitation of a Jon Scott tweet

He's raw, super athletic and we let Edmunds play out his 5th yr before offering him an extension so he may walk at the end of the season. Would be smart to get a big LB with movement skills and let him develop for a year.

Whaley needs to keep Beane and Diggs' names out his f'in mouth

CB in the 1st and I'm up for trading up to draft Hall in the 2nd

Cause he's a scumbag, that's why not.

Still a very good if declining talent with absolutely zero leadership or teammate skills. He's proven he's all about $ and talked trash about Buffalo on his way out. Yes, he played when we were a clownshow, but the shots were unwarranted. I'd 100% rather give up a mid-round pick to the Giants for Bradberry.

The article shows zero evidence this has happened, it outright says "nothing in the works" and then says the Bills could be in on him because he was here before.

We pick up a legit CB2 and the question is how do those teams beat us.

IMO there is one major factor you're missing here. That's the first round ability to keep someone on a 5th year option. From a cap perspective you want to use that tool on a premium skill position where you can keep what would be a more expensive player for less and for longer. With prices going through the roof for WRs and CBs, you benefit from that 5th year option, especially for non top-10 picks. Here is an primer from https://frontofficenfl.com/2017/03/27/nfl-rookie-contracts-explained-fifth-year-option/ I'd rather use that 5th year option on a CB, DE or WR rather than a G because I think it results in a better deal for the team in regards to money allocated towards a position.

I'm unaware of this, could you please say more?
