Instead, Wynn is going to obliterate Bills players the way Logan Mankins did for years. Best offensive linemen in the draft, to the Patriots. I am a UGA fan and agree Wynn is great. Belichick went to UGA earlier this month and I am sure he found out everything he needed to know about Wynn there. I will take the Edmunds pick over Wynn. I am a huge Oline believer but also think McDermott deserves a LB he can use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why stop trusting them now? Do people think that beane doesn’t know his job is probably tied to this? I’m sure he freaking knows. I totally understand not agreeing with the pick but people on here saying they know he’s gonna bust and that this will be what sinks the ship honestly are just moronic. Yup. Trading up for a project QB always works out. Happens regularly. Clearly they know nothing about offense. And Arizona is laughing.

If you subtract all the bubble screens and dump offs from the other top QB's you might find similar numbers/ completion ratio as Josh Allen. The other top prospects also had a better supporting cast. You get that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosen were both this year plus the other injury...so it matters more when looking at Rosen because you don't know how he will respond next year. Not to mention, no one had to call around to figure out how to "get through" to Baker or manage Bakers personality like they did with Rosen. In fact, its pretty telling 3 QB needy teams chose other QB's over Rosen...not to mention 2 teams that could have also taken him (Giants and Broncos) felt he wasn't worth taking over other prospects.

The Bills by NFL standards are weak at skill positions. But when you can't defend your position just call someone drunk, you sound like an idiot. You lack basic logic. How do I disprove a negative? I said I DON'T KNOW, NEITHER DOES JROBER. Nobody knows if it's a hit or miss yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their choice was between the two Josh's and I am willing to bet Allen's likely availability put him above Rosen. Mayfield is not related to the point I was trying to make.

MarlinTheMagician Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Allen is rated higher than Rosen almost everywhere that i have seen. And since none of us know ANYTHING compared to the diligence the Bills did why not just get behind Allen. He is in fact our QB and has done nothing wrong on the field for us. I have never seen so much irrational love for a player as this board has expressed for Rosen. He was there but WE DID NOT WANT HIM. End of story. If years prove it a mistake you can crow about it later. But you can't possibly be correct tonight so get over Rosen, he ain't playing here - never, ever, ever. Except on a visiting team. Suck it up. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This regime has been here one season. What happened in the history of the franchise has literally zero factual impact on today. We have no idea how good or bad this regime will be at developing a QB, but we do know the past failures of older regimes do not in any way factor into this one. And sorry, but I could not disagree more about your "who cares" about how Allen had the best offseason by far. The truth is, the ONLY QB who had a great season was Baker. Rosen had a terrible record with 2 concussions, and Darnold disappointed and was a mistake and turnover machine. All of them have risks and faults...and when teams need to call around to find out how to manage your personality, engage you, and manage you mentally (Rosen) then thats a red flag on its own. So lets not over exaggerate the other prospects as if they were slam dunks, none of them were. And with a young QB in the offseason, seeing a guy come out and wow you over the others, show improvement in the areas listed in the areas they need to improve, etc is very relevant. Totally respect you as a poster, so mean no disrespect to you in this response. But...if you are going to ask me whose opinion I trust...a bunch of arm chair GM's who haven't done even a fraction of real due diligence on these QB's...or the entire regime of the Bills who spent thousands of man hours researching, watching, interviewing, etc of these kids...I will lean towards the professionals opinion. And thus far, Beane has done a LOT to earn his trust. Your comment about "backing into the playoffs" is irrelevant to the job Beane has done. He has leveraged all kinds of value for this franchise, made incredible moves, found great value last year in guys like Micah and Power, etc. So far, he's done everything to earn our trust IMO. I think you’re a good poster too. And no offense since I used to be like that, but you’re also a bit of a homer. And I mean that as a compliment. 1) Rosen literally played with one of the worst defenses in college. He had to put 30-40 points every game to even have a chance for his team to win. 2) I love and hate the offseason. The idea that guys rise and fall in the offseason months after their last games blows my mind. So yeah, I put little stock into his accuracy improving in shorts. 3) A lot of accuracy is muscle memory. While this can be slightly improved, I think it is more challenging to get consistent with it than people realize. For example, I am capable of hitting some great golf shots. However, I will never be on the PGA because I lack consistency. I think the EJ comparison is valid because he was about as hard of worker as the Bills have ever had. He just lacked the muscle memory to ever been consistent. 4) I respect Beane’s rise. But let’s not act like these guys are Gods. They miss all the tome. There are plenty of examples of this message board being right over nfl GMs (I remember people loving Russell Wilson). the nfl is about nepotism. Bill Polian basicslly got like 10 guys from Saint Francis High School nfl jobs because they were friends with his son. so I hate being negative but I need to be consistent. I was against this from the beginning. I don’t question how hard he will work or how much research the Bills did. I just didn’t see it from this guy and it seems like a huge risk, especially when I saw games where Rosen looked like Aaron Rodgers. but I pray you’re right and I’m wrong! 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what makes a great QB. You forgot to include [/sarcasmfont]. Here's two names that Buffalo Bills fans should remember: Tarik Glenn and Adam Meadows. You see, that's how a truly brilliant GM develops an organization through the draft. That's how you go to the HoF as a GM. You don't bring in projects, denude the team of talent and draft picks, watch the offensive line retire, and pick up bull **** WRs to supplement head cases. I need some time for mourning. I'll be cheering every Sunday and hoping this fine young man does us proud but tonight ... this turned out so close to being exactly what I thought would happen. So close.
