They just traded a 26 year old player with this production. His former coaches were the ones saying this. I think it is incredibly naive to think he wasn’t a problem for the Vikings. that said, it’s not like he has issues off the field and is Antonio Brown, who the Bills almost acquired. But it’s clear with the AB and Diggs moves, the Bills are taking calculated risks on talented players with some attitude issues. Hopefully, it works out.

Diggs is healthier and that is the major difference imo. And that’s just as important as talent. and Sammy was huge in the playoffs for a team that won a SB. That contract is worth every penny now. If Diggs has the same exact production and the Bills won the SB, it was a great trade. It would have been awful to have kept Gilmore and drafted Mahomes. I love Tre and he’s one of the best but this scenario wouldn’t have been bad either.

This is a good post. I definitely think you are seeing this through Bills colored glasses a lot more than if you weren’t a Bills fan. I used to compare Brett Favre’s first few years with JP Losman’s to make myself think Losman was going to be good enough. my whole issue with the Allen pick is that we were hoping a guy who wasn’t that great in the Mountain West (and flat out awful against tougher conference teams). Would become a franchise nfl qb. If Allen does this, he would absolutely the exception to every rule. My prediction right now: he continues to show flashes but is kinda a game manager on a really good team who isn’t that consistent. And then are stuck in the Tannehill territory where he is good enough to get a second contract but we are pretty sure he isn’t really the answer. but I seriously hope you are right and truly mean that.

To quote Parcells, you are what your record says you are. This is what I can’t stand about the Allen excuses. He was a 49% passer in junior college. He never hit over 60% in the Mountain West Conference as a top 10 nfl prospect and didn’t make 1st or 2nd team his last year. He’s been one of the lowest starting QBs in completion % his first 2 years. Stop with the excuses. He’s not accurate enough. and Diggs was kinda of a female dog in Minnesota. I get it because he’s our guy now but he had temper tantrums in wins because he wasn’t getting the ball enough. If I was coach, I’d absolutely lose it on a guy like that. He seems like a good dude off the field but it is foolish to pretend like he wasn’t a problem in Minnesota. They are a team with SB talent. You don’t get rid of a guy like Diggs if there aren’t real issues. hopefully, Allen does become money with Diggs and all of this is put to bed. But at this point, Allen isn’t accurate enough and Diggs was a problem on the field for the Vikings.

The Bengals were an annual playoff team a few years ago. I think people overrate how bad they are. And it’s Ruggs. Like any receiver, it depends where he goes. But he is going to get drafted pretty high and I think he is a #2 at best. Could be a really good 2 but again, he needs the right situation.

But it’s that the problem? Consistency? No one questions If he can make spectacular plays. But then he follows it up with awful plays. He’s lack consistency his whole career. And that’s what makes good Become great. but at least, hopefully, we are done with the excuses and can just see if he’s the guy or not.

I mean it was a silly post. I’m excited about the future but I would have rather just watched my team win the Super Bowl. and Mahomes is the franchise. He nearly carried the 2nd worst defense to the SB in 2018. They will be completely fine if he stays healthy. I just don’t think he’s totally healthy. Foot injuries are killers for receivers. also, and this is what a guy like Diggs struggles with. But being a threat on offense helps the rest of the team. Diggs could have a major impact on the game even if he only has like 3 catches by drawing coverage and opening up run lanes. He struggled in Minnesota to be happy doing this. I’m sure Sammy wants the ball more but he helps the offense. You need multiple threats. And we finally have that now.

Fun fact: Diggs averages 66 yards/ game. Sammy when a Bill averaged 66.5 yards/ game. sammy, when healthy which is obviously a problem for him, is about as talented as any receiver in the nfl. Bills fans laughed at NE signing Gilmore. Fans aren’t always smart.

I mean qb play is a Huge factor in this. Yeah, I bet they are definitely regretting winning that Super Bowl. Would have been way better off saving their money so they might have a chance to win it 5 years from now.

That afterthought was their leading receiver in the playoffs. Matter of fact in 5 playoffs games with the Chiefs, he has 454 yards or 90.8 yards/ game. I would be furious with that type of production.

Allen is awesome in fantasy football, as are all qbs who run a lot. but this guy is good at what he does. But again if you don’t like the message, attack the messenger. It’s so pathetic that this is what the country has become.

The Pats are going to be in the running for the AFC East title. It’s so funny. They went 12-4 last year. A lot of posters said Brady was washed up and garbage now. Now that he is gone, they are going to completely fall apart apparently.

If the nfl really cared about cleaning up the league (they don’t), they would hold teams accountable and penalize them for repeating signing scumbags. Plastic face loves signings scumbags and he doesn’t suffer for it. If his team got penalized a draft pick when one of these scumbags does it again, he would think twice about it. but the nfl has some huge double standards. Beat women ok. Silently take a knee ?.

You should read the Gilmore comments when he signed with the Pats. A lot of Bills fans saying what a moron Belichick was. ? and I don’t want him enough to comment but if a corner gives up a catch, fans think that player sucks. Corner is the most physically demanding position in sports with the NFL rules. If there is one I trust McBeane on without a doubt is cbs. You can’t have enough now and they think this guy has something left, I’d totally be fine with it. It would be one less position to fill in the draft. Then draft multiple young pass rushers.

https://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/2016/10/rex_ryan_doesnt_think_his_support_of_donald_trump_is_dividing_bills_locker_room.html fact is there are a lot posters who love to bash Kaepernick and Reid who would love it they had pro Trump Cleats or something like that. Personally, I’m fine with all of it. And absolutely blows my mind that people whine they way they do about a guy silently protesting yet are fine supporting women beaters and other scumbags. Seems a little backwards to me but to each their own I guess. I also find it odd that people get upset about speaking about social issues that are affecting others. What happen to empathy? And like it or not, athletes have huge platforms more than most human beings to make social changes.

I pray they do this because it would be incredibly dumb. I like Burrow and his attitude but it does make me a little wary he has one year of success on an absolutely loaded offense.

I mean it was the Browns. We sold a dead parrot to a blind kid like in Dumb and Dumber.

Cousins has passed for 4,000 yards 3 times. We have never had a qb do that and have parties when they break 200 (Allen averages 190). I can’t imagine Diggs will be happy if that continues. He really, really cares about his numbers.

I think this overrated. Like I’m sure Diggs would rather hang out with Allen because Cousins seems the world’s biggest dork. but Diggs seems like he cares about his numbers first (because they led to more money) and than everything second. Again, dude was throwing temper tantrum when they were winning. I hope this doesn’t happen if he’s not getting his numbers here. A really good receiver can make a huge contribution by drawing coverage and opening things up for other. At this point of his career, Diggs has embraced that mindset. Let’s hope he does.

Yeah, I’m real life, it should be Ryan. But Mike Vick in madden 2004 was one of the greatest video game players ever. No big deal but I once put up a 4,000 yard passing and 2,000 yard rushing season with Vick and 60 tds. Again, no big deal!!! and an all time Bills has to be one of the best rosters. But they need to get that scrub Willis off. So many better options than *****.

Huh? They made it the worst roster. This is what I don’t like about the McBeane stuff. They have done a good job but people completely overrated the “turnaround” they did. They act like it was the Browns they took over and had 1 win. They took over a team that averaged 8 wins and have plenty of guys playing key roles on other teams. This wasn’t a bad situation at all they inherited.

So wait? Now do we like PFF? Or do we hate them because of White and Allen’s ratings? I’m so confused and I just bought my Collinsworth voodoo doll. I hate him because of the website he owns!!!

Yup, this thread is beyond predictable. I’m starting to think this board doesn’t cater to a diverse group of people. ? So were you fine with Rex Ryan and RI campaigning for Trump?

Sounds like an awesome dude but I’m sure some idiot will ruin it. It’s funny during this I’ve had people I hadn’t talked to in forever reaching out. Good for Levi for doing this. It’s a tough time for some people.

I’m guessing money was the major reason but what do I know. I can’t fully hate on not extending Shaq because he really hadn’t prove anything. But I don’t care. Murphy sucks. I wish we could have never signed him and kept Shaq, an ascending player. Oh well. Besides Star and Murphy, I can’t question their defensive acquisitions.
