Paup 1995MVP

I am sure we could make good use of Jerry Jeudy as a starting WR with Josh Allen. If a guy can run fast, run good routes and has solid hands, he can play for us regardless of who else we have. That's like saying we can't have more then one Stefan Diggs. LOL

I am pumped about the 3rd round pick for Edmunds. The best value we got since we drafted him was the 3rd round comp pick for letting him go. I knew there had to be something good about over drafting Tremaine Edmunds in 2018. Thank god Beane and the Bills moved on. Terrell Bernard is such a better fit for our defense.

That’s why you are not a GM.

I have owned a business for almost 3 decades also. I have never disrespected an employee of mine. Always treated everyone right. If you are smart, work hard and get along with your co workers reasonably well, you should always do well in most companies. If you are lazy, an #######, and/or are stupid, you won't do well at in too many industries. And will probably be fired pretty quickly..

He was excellent. Mortenson and NFL Football were just synonymous with each other. Sad to see how sick he looked in his later years. But the guy kept doing what he loved until the end. That is awesome in itself. God bless him and his loved ones.

Go on You Tube and watch the season recap of the 1970 or 1971 NFL season. It was unbelievably brutal the hits that were being put on QB's back then. And the tenor of the video was how positive this was. And that the fans were loving the game more and more. Interesting to see how the game has changed. I started watching in the early to mid 70's when I was a youngster, and the game certainly has changed. It was good then. And it is still good now. It was just glamorized back then as a gladiator sport of violence physicality and intimidation. With the Raiders and Steelers symbolizing that. The Vikings and Rams were also considered very physical teams back then. But the same can be said about hockey as well. Completely different game today then 50 years ago. And life in general from 50+ years ago til now has evolved the same way. Watch videos of protests in the 60's and 70's. The cops used to beat the tar out of protestors with impunity. Now they tiptoe around afraid to do much of anything. You decide which was a better way.

The toe tap game against the Colts-that was the AFC Wild Card game in 2020 right? Our first playoff win since 1995. Those were some real nice catches by Gabe in that game. And the drive that Josh led before halftime in that game starting at our own 2 or 3 yard line is legendary. I just wish Gabe was more dominant on a consistent basis. And had a little more twitchy explosiveness to his game. But he was a solid player.

One of your favorite Bills players ever??!! Seriously?? Gabe had some nice games over the years. Seemed like a good guy. And was a hard worker. But certainly not an overall game changer on a consistent basis. He isn't twitchy or sudden in his movements. Has mediocre athleticism hands and speed. But if you love him, good for you I suppose. He looks and reminds me of Mike Evans. A poor man's Mike Evans. We certainly need more explosiveness at the WR position to compete for a Super Bowl. Lets hope that happens this offseason.

I agree with your assessment. The six game win streak late in the season to get us to the divisional round where we only lost by a missed FG to the Chiefs showed the heart grit and toughness of the team. And said a lot about McDermott leadership ability. The defense just ran out of gas because of all the injuries. We get healthy and a little younger on defense. And get some explosion with some new WR's (Both of which I think Beane will make a priority) and I see our team being a strong contender again. The salary cap seems pretty easy to manipulate. And I think a lot of players want to play for a winning organization like the Bills. Rather then take maybe a little more to play for a scrub team (Bears, Commanders, Panthers, etc) who have a lot of salary cap space. We will be fine when the dust settles.

What alternate reality are you living in Jim Bob? To say that Spector Teller Hamlin Hodgins McCloud and Neal have been hits for us is categorically false. None have done anything for the Bills to help towards winning a championship. (Maybe Spector still does.) Drafting guys is one thing. But keeping them on your team is also part of the process.

I think Elam still has some potential to be a very good corner in the NFL. He has shown spurts of really good play. Hopefully this offseason he can really focus in mentally on what he needs to do to be a starting CB in the NFL. If he can raise the level of his game, having him Rasul Benford, maybe Dane and Tre, and that's a hell of a group of boundary CB's.

Taron Johnson is nowhere near the cover CB that McDuffie is. His technique is not that good. He is a tough smart player. And a great tackler. But not at the same level in coverage as McDuffie

Joe Brady coached a couple real good ones at LSU in Chase and Jefferson. He needs to be part of the WR conversation for sure.

You are either too high, and/or too high on Higgins. lol. He is good but not great like you seem to think Gunner.. He doesn't play with a lot of twitchiness. Ridley has great speed which we need. I don't think we are going to have a lot of cap space for big ticket WR's. Lets get two in the draft, and develop Justin Shorter.

Completely disagree. We did not deserve to win the KC game because our defense was decimated and played like it. We moved the ball reasonably well. But to get to the Super Bowl you need to be solid on both sides of the ball. And special teams has to play a positive role. (missed FG and terrible Fake punt were not that) Also our deep passing game was lousy against KC, and for most of the season. But there is lots to be hopeful about. The O line played very well this year. The defense should get healthier and a lot younger. And we will get some more weapons for Josh. We have our OC and DC set for next year. Sure it was a tough loss to lose to the Chiefs at home. But I think the Ravens have a lot more to be upset about the way they blew their game against the Chiefs. (Lamar is certainly not a Super Bowl level QB like the media wants to portray.) Overall, I thought the team showed great resilience going on the 6 game run to get to the Divisional Playoff game. And it certainly wasn't like the Chiefs kicked our ass despite our defense giving up big plays all night long. We have a tough team that will be even better next year. The hunger to be champions will certainly drive the team, and the entire organization.. Lets go Buffalo!!

Every team that fires a head coach has problems in the organization. Just because the Chargers have Justin Herbert doesn't mean its a GREAT opportunity. Herbert has underperformed, is not much of a leader, the O line stinks, they have no running game to speak of, and their secondary is trash. This is a team that gave up 63 pts to the Raiders. So there are problems even there for Big bad Jim H to fix. If things were running well Staley would still have a job. That being said, no way would I want to coach the Commanders. The stadium is trash. The roster is lousy. And who is to say the new owner is really any better then the old owner. He already owns the 76ers and the NJ Devils. Who is the football guy that will run the front office? A lot of uncertainty there. And the football culture was good years ago w Joe Gibbs and George Allen. That's a long time ago. Maybe start by bringing their old name back. It really wasn't that bad. As for the Seahawks job, I would be all over that. The culture of the team, the Stadium, the fans. Top notch. A great place to make a name as a young coach.

Winston can play. He may not have started any. But I watched him play mid season at Minnesota. He isn't great. But he understands the game, is a leader and isn't afraid to whip it around the yard. For whatever reason Dennis Allen and the Saints have not given him the chance to start. They went w Andy Dalton two years ago, and brought in Derrick Carr this past year. I like Winston better then both. But that's just me. We all have our personal preferences. Its like liking different ice cream flavors or ladies.

Where is Goff? I will take him over Hurts Dak and Lawrence every day of the week. Herbert has done nothing. He is a baby B word who just loses. And Josh blows Lamar away. Stop watching ESPN. Where is Jameis Winston? Guy is a gamer. The black Fitzie.

On the 3rd down throw out of bounds before attempting the FG, Shakir was wide open in the left flat. He would have easily gotten the lst down inside the 17 yard line. Unfortunately Josh was looking and rolling to his right and both of our receivers were completely covered in the rt corner of the endzone. I agree about the run up the middle. Not good. We had a 1st down at the 27 with two and a half minutes on the clock. And ended up w no points, and a big L. That whole sequence just sucked.

I am a Wolverine too. Go Blue. I like Roman Wilson's game a lot too. Of course we underutilized him at Michigan like we do all our WR's. But when his number was called he came up big. Especially against Bama on that big catch on the game tying drive. That being said, I do not see him as a 2nd round receiver. He is on the smaller side, and is quick but not overly a burner. He does have good hands. More of a Beasley type guy, with a little more height. 3rd or 4th round is where I see him going. Would love him on the Bills. But we also need a big time outside WR who can created separation, and become a #1 for us sooner then later.

The Diggs Miller and Knox contracts stink. If we can get rid of all 3 (which is unlikely) and replace w more productive cheaper players, Beane will have earned his keep 10 times over. Bills D is OLD. We need pass rushers. WE need younger safeties.. And we need more playmakers (at least 2) at the WR position.

Diggs needs some new scenery. And we need some new WR’s. I take the $13.5 mill cap hit next season and turn the page. He has no tread left on the tires. It’s obvious. He can’t beat corners any longer. He’s had a very good to great career. But it’s winding down. Watch Moneyball. There comes a time for everyone when they can’t play the game they love anymore. That time is coming for Diggs. Father Time is undefeated. Some on this message board do not seem to get that. Sad but true. I wish Diggs had 3-4 solid years left. But it certainly doesn’t look like it.

Why do you want to keep Neal? He does nothing on special teams or defense. And what are your plans for Isabella?

Floyd disappeared in the 2nd half of the year. He is not worth big money. None of our DE’s are.

I agree. Our receivers outside of Shakir are brutal. Sad about Diggs. What has happened to the man? But still his offensive play calling is oh so predictable.
