Domdab99 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 So the Bills traded Sammy Watkins, Cordy Glenn, a 2nd round pick, and a 1st round pick for Josh Allen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not thrilled with Allen but I cannot claim to know more than Beane and McDermott. I am willing to trust the brain trust that got us our 1st playoff appearance in a generation. Cool story bro... Based on your logic, why post or join a message board. Literally none of us know as much or more about football or scouting players. Doesn’t mean we can’t discuss opinions or that they can be wrong. I get annoyed with the “everybody is negative, none of you work for the NFL” response. It’s lazy and counterituitive to what the message board is all about. Defend it, hate it, say why you like the current staff, but this BS response is garbage. Sorry. Generally not so attacking. I hate this pick. And this hit a nerve. Cheers and go Bills! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Where’sLloyd Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I wanted Rosen, but I’m gonna support this Allen kid. He does have ridiculous physical gifts so let’s hope the coaches are right and can put him together. I teach high school kids, they say stupid **** all the time so not gonna read into old tweets too much. That was a well played ploy by someone trying to get his client a better payday.

stuvian Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 If Beane wants to hang his career on Allen so be it but I'm not sold. It feels like an epic reach. Let's hope McCarron can generate TDs for the foreseeable future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where’sLloyd Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) As a fan of the sport I like Rosen and think he likely will be really good, but if I was on the coaching staff I probably would be put off when he says he might be angry at a coach if he’s not trying to his best every day. I bet there is a sense Allen is more coachable and they can fix his accuracy....if such a thing ever happened. It may not be accuracy with Allen but rather choosing the wrong option leading to incompletions and The Bills can coach himupmon how to make better reads. I hope they can.

Chuck Wagon Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Either Beane picked the next Cam / Luck / Wentz or the next EJ. Doesn’t feel like much in between with Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope McCarron can generate TDs for the foreseeable future This ^ There is something very “Billsy” about this pick. We didn’t get a guy from a big time school who had vast success in college. Instead, we get the small school guy who was quite average in college. Allen just seems second rate. I remember being excited about Losman, Maybkn, Spiller and all those picks. Maybe I’ve just grown jaded, but this pick just feels wrong. It just doesn’t give me any reason to feel excited. I really hope I’m wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Joshin' Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Allen was fourth of the top 4 QBs. As many do, I worry about the level of competition and accuracy. My hope is that many professionals had him #1 or #2. That gives me hope and as a Bills fan I will hang on hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Y. Orangeman Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) Jesus, this is the 7th pick they used on a QB....and I think he is ridiculously underrated around here. Edited April 27, 2018 by N.Y. Orangeman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
