Boatdrinks Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I'm good with 3-1 and virtually two drafts next year! 3-1 is great. Players let go for draft picks in lower rounds isn't likely to net similarly talented players. The goal needs to be the playoffs then the Super Bowl . Even the current players know that can't get too high on a 3-1 record. Bills teams have posted similar records in the recent past, only to fizzle out.

Buddo Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Iirc, wasn't Washington a healthy scratch for one of the last games of last year, due to 'not practicing very well'. And that was by Anthony Lynn. Work ethic or attitude might be the 'problem'. Seems a shame, tbh, as he's certainly flashed ability, but if he doesn't want it bad enough, then he will be gone, possibly even just cut, if we have need of roster space.

Dopey Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Well this is silly if true, unless for a WR which it doesn't sound like it is. There will be literally no players of note from the 2016 draft remaining. No team can afford to just flush an entire draft.Well, if it's crap,what else are you supposed to do with it? Trying to be funny,hope it worked. Seriously, I'm happy with what we've gotten in return for some of the players we 'flushed' down the toilet. Couple of contributers and we now have a ton of picks.

Boatdrinks Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Augie... shushhhhhhhhh. After yesterday I think 3-1 isn't good enough for some. We didn't score enough etc etc And Dick Jauron was 5-1 with Trent Edwards. What did it get them? Again 3-1 is great. Still lots more work needed.

GG Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 i think he got injured early in his packers tenure and had problems rebounding until he got here. Sounds awful like Big Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaviorPeterman Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I wouldn't doubt this is true since McD/Beane seem dead set on purging this roster, it's also very telling as to why Dareus is still here because no team out there is dumb enough to trade for him even if we were willing to take a 7th round pick. At present though Beane needs to focus on how to tweak this roster and prepare for a potential playoff and stop worrying about dumping Whaley players.

Bills teams have posted similar records in the recent past, only to fizzle out. Four games is FAR from a season, but I'm pretty happy at this point. I'm sure they have a lot of trust in their own scouts, and I think THAT will be a real test going forward. We need to be able to capitalize on all these picks they have gathered, this year and every year. You can't afford $100 million dollar guys who don't dominate games.

cba fan Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Beano and McDerma are some of the most closed minded people I have ever seen. Never have I seen a new regime come in and dump so many previous players. Of course if they keep winning 3 out of 4, none of that will matter, and we will just need to accept an occasional cut of a talented player.

BADOLBILZ Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 The DT play was poor yesterday.......Kyle and Dareus both looked injured and played bad......Washington should have been active over Dareus but maybe he's not been practicing up to McD's liking.

BADOLBILZ Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Adolphus Washington, DT, Buffalo Bills An exec said Washington was available during camp for a fifth-round choice, as the Bills plotted their future under new coaching and personnel staffs. A 2016 third-round choice, Washington was suspended for his final college game at Ohio State and then was acquitted of a weapons charge while with the Bills this past summer. "I just think with [bills defensive tackle] Kyle Williams being so old, it could be hard to trade him," an insider said. "Plus, they have a good thing going right now." On the other hand, the Bills have not been shy about using trades to reshape their roster, having sent Sammy Watkins to the Rams and Ronald Darby to the Eagles before the season. Any WR on that list?

BuffaloBillyG Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 So, if he is as great as many are stating...why didn't any of the other 31 teams trade a lowly 5th rounder for him? Honestly he's JAG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he was arrested on gun charges? That might make some teams scared. Teams value picks wayyyy more than players... we got a third for lynch lmao There is an OVER ABUNDANCE OF PLAYERS IN THE LEAGUE... and a shortage of QBs Teams would rather stick with their own than trade for a guy they might not be able to coach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
