Rookie Watkins with Allen is a 1400 yard rookie who makes the pro bowl. Watkins had no one throwing his way
I agree and tried to make that clear.

since when is McDermott the GM?Beane will do WAY more homework and research than Doug did
McDermott is the power in this organization. He was here before Beane, got him hired and can get him fired.

I have seen Nabers play and he looks like an excellent receiver. That said, this is not a move that I would be in favor of.
In 2014, an undisciplined, impulsive Doug Whaley gave away the store for Sammy Watkins and it proved to be a disaster. True, we didn't have a decent QB on the roster (let alone a great one like Josh Allen) but if deals like this turn out to be a mistake they can cripple a team. This draft is said to be quite deep at the WR and OT positions. I favor staying put and filling the roster with early picks at these positions.
I readily admit that I suffer from shell shock after decades of Bills stupidity and really do hope that McDermott surprises me and does this the right way.

That one shook a little harder, this one lasted a little longer.
Agreed. As I said my chair was rocking sideways with the legs leaving the floor on the last one. This one was noisier and as you said, lasted longer.

My son is in College Park, MD and they felt it. A co-worker in RI felt it as well. He was on a call with folks from Philadelphia who felt it a few moments before he did.
That is how fast these thing travel.
Approx 12 years ago I was on the phone with my daughter. She said to me "I have to go" and hung up. She was living in Herndon, VA. I had no idea what was happening to her and was scared. Less that a minute later my chair was rocking from side to side. I'm not sure that this one was as bad.

How many of you felt it in the tristate area? They are calling it a 4.9 on Long Island. My house was shaking for a few seconds.

Imo the most important change has to be wrt the transfer portal and NIL. I am not against either mind you. Far from it but they really do need somne sort of regulated system.
OT Kadyn Proctor was a 5 star, top 10 overall player coming out of HS. He played well (not great) as a freshman. Proctor hit the portal after Coach Saban retired and went to Iowa Univ. (his home state). A few weeks later he decided to re-enter the portal and return to Alabama. Coach Ferentz wished him well, but he also stated that Proctor took more than 1/2 of Iowa's NIL money with him.
As an Alabama Fan I suppose that this should make me happy but it does not. I mean, what is there to stop a great player from signing with the Tide, taking our NIL money, and splitting with it? As it now stands, the college players have more freedom that NFL players. Mahomes can't just decide that he wants to play for the Dolphins. He is under contract.
Again. I am all for players getting paid but college football is in need of a fair system.

I am thinking that perhaps I'm going against the grain with my opinion. I have been very tough on McDermott but my initial reaction to this trade is positive but with a caveat.
If he dedicates the early picks to WRs and OTs, I think it was a good move. I don't think that Diggs is getting better, and a #2 is frankly a bit more than I expected. This draft appears to be loaded with receivers and OL, and now is the time to focus more on the offense and these positions specifically.
The caveat? If McDermott drafts safeties, corners and other defenders with the early picks we will be heading right back to the Levy/Jauron days and lose football games. I truly hope this doesn't happen but again, at this point I support the trade.
Jmo.

Mine is Jermaine Burton - WR - University of Alabama. I'm calling him a sleeper because he is a first round talent imo but I don't often read about him being selected in round one. here is why:
1) He is said to be a bit of a head case.
2) His quarterback (Jalen Milroe) isn't so great imo. Some of the passes in this video were very good. Others didn't hit Burton in stride. Milroe is not very accomplished at short to mid range passes imo.
3) It is worth noting that at the Alabama Pro Day, Burton chose QB Ty Simpson to throw to him over Milroe.
I really can see this kid as a great #2 for Josh, who is 100x better than Milroe. I think that Jermaine would be open all over the field and score TDs.
As always, JMO.

Too much early focus on defense, which is probably a primary facet of what is wrong with McDermott and this team.
Sorry BB, jmo.

As around the sun, the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assure
That I'll be loving you always
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing, will grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
Do know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always

It used to seem to me that my life ran on too fast
And I had to take it slowly just to make the good parts last
But when you're born to run it's so hard to just slow down
So don't be surprised to see me back in that bright part of townI'll be back in the high life again
All the doors I closed one time will open up again
I'll be back in the high life again
All the eyes that watched me once will smile and take me in -

Eboigbe at 163 would be an absolute steal.

Who GM’ed this draft again? Absolutely horrid.
Marv Levy, after he brought in Jauron, his clone in many ways.

Evans was decent. He was very fast but he was a one trick pony.

In a class that is said to be loaded at OT, the Bills should absolutely draft at least 1. Dion is HUGE and a great candidate for injury. RT Brown will probably command a HUGE contract when free agency comes around.
If we posters can see this, it isn't asking too much for McDermott to see it.
