Really like this pick. More depth at LB, sub packages and special teams. Our next Matt Milano.
Cool highlights, but I didn’t know music that bad existed.

This take just exposes how little he understands our roster and scheme.
Or draft strategy.

Same here. Such a d-bag. Always has been, always will be.

I prefer Nick Tahou's, where the garbage plate was actually invented. Lots of places imitate it, or have their own take on it, but I prefer the original. There are a few good places I'll go to in a pinch if I can't get to Nick's, but really there's no substitute for the original.
That said, I'll be there for the draft version with the rest of those with palates sensitive to the flavor of a quality meal.

Ryan Nassib had a 41. There's some perspective!

Pick will surely be a bust.

Yeah, we're really not going to have a difinitive answer for 2-4 years from now. I liked the second half of his rookie year, but there's a long way to go. Let's revisit this in two years - it will be a great conversation! Here's hoping Bills brothers and sisters!

The teams you play are what they are. What is really important is your home vs. away schedule (pats looks a little easier than buffalo's), when your bye falls, where your away games fall, how many short weeks you have, and cross-country travel. The cheatriots usually get babied when it comes to rest and short weeks, and the Bills usually get screwed. We'll see how this year goes.

Some good players left in FA or were traded, but given the crap results when those players were on the team, it is hard to argue with resetting the roster. And some were overpaid by other teams, and because of a horrible cap situation (thanks, Whaley), there's no way we could have kept them.
Along with that, getting rid of Dareus was fantastic.

That would be, "douche". And you are right, he was.

Same issue here. Asking me to pay $49, even though I'm a subscriber. Hooray for stupid AT&T

Except they made the playoffs last year, largely because of good coaching. Go sit in a corner, little guy.

Um, we did. We fired Whaley. He's the one that picked Peterman. He's the one who had the team that scouted players all year long. He's the one that did the trade out of that position. Revisionist history is fun, but it makes you look friggin stupid. Cut it out.

Thanks for letting us know, Jay. Saying prayers right now.

So I've waited until the new week to start any threads. Didn't want to come on and say "told you so," as I've been posting about our line, QB group, and glaring issues all off season but was dismissed time & time again as just being negative.
But there's one thing I've been optimistic about, that I knew in the back of my head was just the homer in me...Our organization's ability to develop a QB. I believed this coaching staff would finally do right, and end our ineptitiude since Jim Kelly. Evidence points to the contrary however, and it's definitely a huge concern.
This staff just last week was confident & had faith in Peterman as the starter. They watched him for a full NFL season, and another off season, and believed this guy was a worthy NFL QB. Half way through game 1, they already pulled him and threw the rookie in who they clearly didn't want to start. Now he's the starter going in to game 2 because it's "what's best for the franchise" (he only made that point clear a million times). But how can we have faith he has any idea what's best for the franchise? Not even 5 days ago Peterman was what he thought was best for the franchise. Last season he thought benching Taylor, then yanking his replacement (again in 1 half) & throwing Taylor back in was what was best! He thought signing McCarron, then trading him & running with 2 inexperienced QB's as our group was what was best for the franchise.
Yeah, why would we ever need McCarron when we got these 2 studs here locking down the fort? You already exhausted & killed any hope one of your 2 options was ever going to succeed, and with 15 games left you're already down to your last hope....the raw, project, "potential," QB who fights to hit 50% of his passes in high school & college, against Mountain West competition, and hasn't done anything in his football career, and now is asked to suddenly do things he's NEVER been able to do but against the best competition in the world!!?
I like McDermott. I think he's a good coach. I think he's a good leader. But he's shown he's already thrown up too many red flags to say he knows how to develop a QB properly, or even knows how to identify a good QB in the first place. Having a veteran on the team for the rookie to learn from & to lead your young group would've been the most obvious, easy thing to do to at least help learn the ropes & to mentor these guys, but we didn't even do that!
All this while setting these 2 guys up with what's likely to be the worst offense in the NFL... A line that fans wanted to pretend would somehow just become good with the loss of its best players (great logic), and by having one of the most mediocre WR corps around...these 2 QB's are setup to fail no matter what they do. And with this schedule? Ravens, Chargers, Vikings to start the season? Yeah, don't worry...those defenses will surely be nice warmups for these guys
And yes, a QB getting smashed to oblivion can ruin their career & shot at ever becoming decent. David Carr was shell shocked, and took a record amount of sacks his rookie year. Allen isn't going to fare much better, and it's not his fault. The guy can't help but do what the coaches tell him, and he can't develop in conditions that aren't conducive to his success. He wasn't close to pro ready, and now he's being thrown to the wolves. Way to go McBeane... I didn't expect a winning season. I didn't expect a playoff repeat. But I DID expect you to handle this situation with respect to the position & process, rather than attempting to systematically make every bad decision that has historically ruined QB's careers.
Ridiculous. New offense, roster turnover, one game into the second year of a coaching regime, and you've decided he can't develop a QB? Seriously, that's just insane.

Sully always searched actively for the negative angle. ALWAYS. I wrote the Buff news multiple times asking them to do better. I'm glad that miserable dolt is gone.

Really losing some belief in Beane/McDermott that they are working him out, seriously
Really? It is their job to explore options. Please, let's not get overly dramatic here.

They should have got a time machine and gone to the future where they would have know Wood and Incognito would be gone.

I'm definitely concerned about Peterman's lack of arm strength. There's not NFL velocity on those balls. Looks like a little less velocity than even someone like Chad Pennington. The wind starts blowing and we've got a problem, because any route over 20 yards becomes a liability.
Love his quick release, though.

No. Not sure why anyone would suggest it might be a good idea to listen to a buffoon.

Some people are introverts and just aren't jazzed about being up in front of people or being the center of attention. Sometimes introversion means they have a smaller but much closer circle of friends. This personality type actually plays well into the team concept, especially those playing on either line. There's my MBTI lesson for the day.
