KC additions this off-season: Joe Thuney, Orlando Brown, Kyle Long, Jarran Reed. That's a lot of talent.

AFC is much better than the NFC right now, unfortunately. NFCE is trash, GB is the only good team in the NFCN, and I think only TB is dangerous in the South. The NVCW is solid. And then there's the AFC.. 😒

I thought Addison would get cut/moved, but his pay cut and restructure indicate that he will be on the team this pear, per Buffalo Rumblings:

I was really curious to see how Rousseau's Miami tape compared to Dunlaps Florida tape, but I couldn't find anything on YouTube. Give Rousseau, who's still growing into his body, a few years in the weight room and league and maybe we'll have a Dunlap-lite DE on our hands. Someone who can can lock down the edge on his side of the field and use his long arms to stop the QB from stepping up through holes in the line/escaping the pocket to the outside.

Also, here's Dunlap's highlights from 2019 (I just found a random video from YT, no particular reason why I picked this one). A number of the plays look like plays that Rousseau made during his 15-sack season (bull rushes, inside moves, using his long arms to disrupt plays, etc.)

Was trying to think of player comps and Carlos Dunlap came to mind, so I looked him up. Gregory Rousseau Height: 6'6" Weight: 266 lbs. Arm length: 33.75" Hand size: 11" 40 yard dash: 4.69 sec. Vertical: 30" Bench press: 21 Broad jump: 9'7" Shuttle: 4.45 sec. 3 cone: 7.5 sec. Carlos Dunlap: Height: 6'6" Weight: 278 lbs. Arm length: 34.5" Hand size: 10" 40 yard dash: 4.68 sec. Vertical: 31.5" Bench press: 21 Broad jump: 9'3" Shuttle: 4.61 3 cone: 7.21 Obviously measurables aren't everything, but you gotta start somewhere. If he turns into a Dunlap-esque type player, I'd be pretty happy with the pick.

Does anyone know where to find snap percentages for our DL during the 2018/19/20 seasons? I ask because I know McD prefers to have his defensive linemen cycle a lot, which I find interesting. Beane seems to like taking DL early (looking at Carolina's record while he was there and now here in Buffalo). With premium picks being used up on players that rotate in/out all the time, I would hope/expect for more sacks due to them being "fresh" during games. That doesn't seem to be the case over the last few of seasons, so hopefully it starts coming together this year with Star back in the fold. Otherwise this is a lot of draft capital (1st, 1st, 2nd, 3rd) and money (3rd most in the league) tied up in a group that can be pretty underwhelming at times.

I don't exactly think all of the the visitors to this forum fall on the right-hand side of the IQ bell curve lol.

How is KC able to fit so many large contracts? (I'm assuming KC is gonna get a long term deal in place.) And how do we compete?

Sorry I don't live on the forum, dude. Here are some excerpts from Tim Graham's 2020 interview with Stevie surrounding the Pittsburgh game drop & subsequent tweet fallout. Yeah, Stevie called out Gailey once in 2012 (perhaps it was warranted, considering the offense was ***** and Gailey was fired just a couple months later...). You know who else was a headache for their team and was labeled a diva? Who just so happens to be on the current Bills roster and whose nuts all our fans hang off of? I'll give you some time to think of who that might be. You make Stevie out to be some dickwad for some reason. In an era of ***** teams and ***** players - many of whom were just collecting a paycheck - he busted his ass and helped make the team fun to watch, every week. He loved Buffalo, the fans, the team, and still comes back for games/gives back to the community. Have fun hating SJ13 🤙

Wish we still had the confused reaction emoji for comments like this. Dude was the epitome of "process." Worked his way up from 7th rounder to WR1, all the while having a personality and having fun. I'm willing to bet you're in the minority of Bills fans that find him to be a loser.

Care to elaborate? I'm curious what you mean by this.

I'm disappointed in this one - was really hoping we would re-sign him. Best of luck in Detroit!

Whether its Shelvin or another big body 1T, that's who I want. Getting someone in at that position will directly help Oliver do what he does best, and help the LBs do what they do best.

:3 I'm curious what type of $ he'd command. Would be a solid 3rd down option for us.

What happens first - the Bills acquiring Ertz or this hitting 75 pages? EDIT: 50! 🥳

Used The Draft Network and netted out with: 1.30 - Kwity Paye, DE, Michigan 2.61 - Ifeatu Melifonwu, CB, Syracuse 3. 93 - Ben Cleveland, iOL, Georgia 5.161 - Bobby Brown III, DT, Texas A&M 5.174 - Anthony Schwartz, WR, Auburn 6.213 - Paris Ford, S, Pittsburgh 7.236 - Tommy Doyle, OT, Miami (OH) I think I'd be happy with that 🤷‍♂️

Larger return for NYJ than I thought they'd get, to be honest

Kinda weird for Chiefs fans to be hanging out on a Bills MB, don't ya think? Y'all got nothing better to do with your time?

I'm the opposite. Miami is set up incredibly well for the future. This is a win-win situation all around for them.

True, though I think for the first time in a long time that both franchises have the right guys in place (GM & coach). Houston didn't do us any favors in 2020, knocking us out of the playoffs then setting up Miami's franchise for the next decade with that Tunsil trade.

Hate this for us - NYJ and MIA absolutely loaded with 1st round picks.
