How does their GM still have a job? That is one of the worst stretches in GM history - Head Coach he picks gets fired in a year; top 10 qb gets traded with a 5th for a 2nd in a year, and an extreme DUI. How many guys keep their job after that?
I think AJ Brown will have a nice career as number 2. I wasn’t a huge DK fan but he landed in a great situation and we will see him making big plays there even if he is inconsistent.
And these scouts and front office people aren’t Gods. They make huge mistakes all the time. I think this will be a guy that will fall in category of whatever TEs of Bills past. I do hope I’m wrong but you figured out how to a guy with skills more than 0 tds. Especially after your big receiver gets hurt.
I’ll get labeled as a hater but yeah. I liked Watson more coming out than Allen and he has done nothing for me to second guess that. I’ll say Allen has better physical skills but Watson has just been making winning plays since college.
But we have Allen and that’s why I want to get him more receiving help.
Would you say this if he wasn’t a Bill? ? not even knocking allen but Watson is very good and has shown a ton of evidence of this. Allen has had glimpses with great physical talent.
Conversely, if you don’t like the pick, it doesn’t make you a whiner. It’s a message board not a cult. You don’t have to give back your Bills fandom if you disagree with something. And if the national media didn’t like the pick, the “homers” would trash their opinion and say how dumb they are.
Its beyond silly.
Agreed and that’s why he dropped. But with the depth, he won’t be the main guy and could develop. Even if he was just a red zone guy his first year, that would be huge value.
Is his potential any any less than the TE we took? And at least Butler had a major impact in college. Sorry, just venting because my girlfriend hates the draft. ?
I’ll go on record and would have rather had Hakeem Butler.
Butler instead of Knox and Love in the 4th instead of DS would make this an amazing draft IMo. Hope I’m wrong.
I thought it was a good deep class. There might not be a ton of stars but there are plenty of good number 2s with 1 potential if they get lucky. Harry, The Browns, Butler, Campbell, Butler, etc. that’s a pretty solid group.
2017 was a bad qb class they said. And everyone before the draft said while there weren’t a ton of 1st round receivers, it was a very deep class. I think folks are changing the narrative now.
I always respect your opinion on things and this could be true. I would rather had Butler than our TE and Rb but obviously, it’s just my opinion.
Honest question. Do you trust this regime’s ability to scout receivers?
Maybe I didn’t post it right. I think he has the potential to be a number 1. Doesn’t mean he will. But that is what you’re looking for. He would fit a big role in our receiving core. We have a bunch of smaller type receivers.
Last year, I hated the Ray Ray and Proehl picks because I liked ESJ of Notre Dame. Nothing was a given by there was no upside to the guys we took.
Well, I apologize Joe. I thought you have become strictly a cheerleader for this regime. I respect you being objective. And you are far from a hater. It’s kinda funny people think that.
