They picked at 17 and you really think we should have taken a safety in the 1st rd? And then we still have no MLB.
its kind of a strange argument you are making. Edmunds wasn’t even expected to be there at 16.
I’m just saying I don’t like the trade up. Who knows who would have been there at 22? And no, I would never have a problem with taking a player like Derwin James. That guy is a beast.

I think that's an extremely optimistic maybe.
Probably. But you don’t know how the round plays out if the Bills don’t make that trade. Maybe the Chargers pick Edmunds at 19 and Derwin James slides to 22.
1 minute ago, YoloinOhio said:Especially since the Chargers literally said they were taking him at 17 if he was still there. They struck gold anyway with James but unless they are lying (why would they after the draft?) he certainly would not have been there at 22.
OK, then maybe James slides to us at 22. That wouldn’t have sucked.

I feel your pain regarding the lack of weapons on offence, but my sense of it is that Edmonds may well wind up a steal where he was taken and well worth the trade up.
Could be. And of course we don’t really know who they would have taken at 22 or with pick 65 if they’d kept it.

One? Not a fan of Edmunds or Phillips?
I like both of them. Did not like the trade up for Edmunds though. That high third round pick could have been used on some sort of offensive weapon (Royce Freeman, Antonio Calloway, or—god forbid—a lineman). Too many holes to give up a premium pick for a linebacker. Maybe he’s still there at 22...

It’s encouraging that after using almost the entire draft on defense, they found at least one guy who can play.?

Mahommes is the real deal, and they whiffed on him.
There is a very real possibility that JA is Losman 2.
Our front office pretends like they are genius's, but they are a bunch of very average d*cks.
Who is this Mahommes you keep talking about?

Putting Mahomes aside for the moment, how is it possible that KC has so many offensive weapons and we have none, zero?? I mean, seriously: Hill, Hunt, Kelce, Connelly, and DAT, and I could go on and on. Just a complete and utter fail at OBD. It makes me sick to watch teams that have bona fide NFL players at the offensive skill positions.

We at https://gotitans.com/ like to visit the forums of teams we play each week.
Here is how our season has gone this year:
- We lost the game we were supposed to win then won the games we were supposed to lose
- Major injury issues early in the year. Our top 4 offensive players (in order -- Delainie Walker, Taylor Lewan, Jack Conklin and Marcus Mariota) missed significant time. All but Walker are back and healthy now though
- Run game has been trash
- WRs pretty good though there have been some bad drops and the number 1 WR the previous 2 years up and quit on the team
- Pass rush is strong, we were able to put a lot of pressure on Carson Wentz, even with their good OL. Rookie Harold Landry is doing well rushing the passer
- Secondary is hit and miss. We had another injury at SS. High priced FA Malcolm Butler has a habit of following up a big a big play by giving up a big play
- Run defense could be better. First round rookie Rashaan Evans has barely played and missed all of TC
- New coaching staff appears to be light years ahead of the old Mike Mularkey staff
My prediction is a defensive battle between the Bills and Titans. Which is how all our games have gone this year.
How’s Jurrell Casey doing? Last time we played you, he was a big problem.

I don’t know how they will build the offense. Pretty much everyone on this offense needs to go except for Allen, Dawkins and maybe Marcus Murphy (young and cheap) apart from that we need to rebuild the whole thing. This will take a few years if we can accomplish it.
Do you want the same people who passed on Mahomes and Watson, and traded up for Zay Jones, to be in charge of that project? Are you interested in giving them a few more years?

Looking around the league yesterday there is no doubt the Bills have the worst offense in the entire country. Pee wee, high school ,college, powder puff...... Will we ever see an NFL offfense? Will we ever see a real NFL receiver? The rules in the Nfl favor offenses and here in Buffalo the Bills can"t get a freakin field goal. Some point totals from yesterday, Houston 37, Colts 34, Bears 48, Bengals 37, Falcons 36, Pats 45, Browns 42, Raiders 45, Saints 33. The team I root for 0, ZERO, NONE, ZILCH, NADA not a freakin point. Years ago John McKay coach of the Tampa Bay Bucs was asked about the EXECUTION of his offense, he said he was in favor of it. Thats how I feel about the Bills offense.
I want my ticket money back, I deserve at least half my money back as it seem that the Bills only field half a team. That wide receiver bunch is a freakin joke, and the offensive line is the punch line.
Thanks for letting me vent. They're killin me Whitey, they're killin me!
You are forgetting about the fact that the Packer’s defense is probably a bottom 10 defense in the NFL.
Unless you were actively working to sabatoge the team, it would be difficult to put together a more inept offense than what the Bills are trotting out there in 2018, including what might be the worst receiving corps in the modern history of the league. Will anyone be held accountable, or will the people who created this fiasco be given years to try to prove that they are competent?

According to the Bills cheerleaders on TSW, McDermott and Beane should get at least 5 years, maybe even 10, no matter how incompetent they prove to be.
I think we can safely say that if and when Josh Allen busts, they will both be gone, and that’s as it should be. Unfortunately, they have set him up to fail spectacularly.

Well, it seems the we you are referring to are the Pegulas. I’ve got to think this regime gets 3 years, but they may not know what they are doing.
Yes. I know everyone says they get at least 3 years, but how does anyone competent put together an offense like this one in this day and age?

First we need to figure out whether the current regime knows what it’s doing. If not, then they should not be put in charge of fixing the current mess.
In today’s NFL it’s almost impossible to create an offense as inept as the one we’ve got right now. It almost requires acts of intentional sabatoge. Hell, the 49ers just put up 27 points with C.J. Beatherd at the helm. The Browns put up more than 40 points on the road with a rookie QB. And let’s not even talk about what the Chiefs and Texans are doing with the QBs we passed on a year ago.
Finally, someone needs to be held accountable for assembling a seive of an o-line and the worst receiving corps in the league—maybe in modern NFL history. I think it would be a stretch to think McDermott and Beane know how to fix it.

Could have started this thread at 1:15
Game over almost as soon as it started.
The very first series certainly set the tone. Pick up six yards on the first play, then go three and out with incompetent play calling and poor execution.
-
Folks, one thing to keep in mind is that the Packers’ defense is NOT good. This may be a historically incompetent offense.

Where would you like him to throw it? To the green bay defenders sitting and waiting
I wasn’t referring just to that play. It seems to be a habit.

Allen takes way too long to get rid of the ball. Is that a correctable problem?

Well at least he’s well-spoken

That’s a great play by the DB. Not a bad pass at all.

We need to get rid of the empty backfield.

Lol are the announcers really saying that should have been a roughing the passer?
If that’s roughing the passer then I’m done watching football.

The DBs are getting dinged up again. What is with the Bills and injuries to the DBs?
The defense is on the field all day-more exposure to injury. Plus, they are constantly forced to tackle guys running free into the secondary.
Taron Johnson playing very good ball.

James could likely play corner in this system.
Maybe they draft a MLB somewhere else. MLBs aren’t that hard to find.
