17 Josh Allen Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I love it. If I was Allen I would watch that video every day to keep me grounded and working hard for the City of Buffalo. Great motivation tool 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 To see the crowd go from excited to shocked/defeated between the words Josh and Allen was interesting. Beane better hope he wins... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brand J Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 The Allen selection feels like yet another Billsy moment. Unfortunately we're used to those by now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaCrispy Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) Haha that was great...everyone just looking around to see if other people are as miserable as they were i asked my my wife why drafting a QB always has to be such a painful experience for Bills fans... it is supposed to be a celebrated time but it always seems like a funeral for us...why don’t we get to enjoy it like other teams?

Kingston Bills Fan Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Our O-line is in shambles and we gave up two 2nds to move up 5 spots for Allen and the Cards only gave up a 3rd and 5th to move up 5 spots for Rosen I say Cards got a way better deal! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I was in the FL keys yesterday watching the draft.... when the Dolphins picked the safety. Half the place just screamed.....FUUU*****k. LOL. Not many people there were too happy either. Just thought it was funny to see. I remembered the same reaction to pickin. Whitney low those many years ago.

I can say the same about you.

TheBeane Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I think I felt much of the same way. You can see people excited, then a little nervous, and then just accepting it. I've said the same thing through this whole process, I had a few preferences, but would just be happy to get 1 of the top 4 prospects and for the Bills to take a chance and get their guy. They did that, got their guy at a reasonable cost, and then filled another glaring hole with Edmunds. I am cautiously optimistic and really hope Allen sits behind McCarron until we get some other holes in this team filled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been so many times when the general consensus of fans has hated a first round pick who busts. We don't have to have blind faith in the organization. Fans can be right. I hope Allen succeeds like every other Bills fan (minus the lunatics). Just because I'm not an "expert" doesn't mean I have to like the pick. So, your post is dumb. Really really dumb.

Chuck Wagon Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I felt the same way. Euphoria at trading up to get one of the guys, mounting excitement to hear "Josh" and utterly deflated to hear "Allen" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) I’m going to sound like a condescending ***hole here but I’m going to say it anyways. 95% of the people in that Field House haven’t seen these guys play. WNY doesn’t follow college football and doesn’t really know the game. They formulated their opinions over the last handful of months based on Schopp and the Bulldog, Jeremy White, Mel Kiper, etc...It is different around here when someone like Gunner is upset. He has studied these guys inside and out and formed an opinion. Bandit did the same and had a different take. Those people whining in the Fieldhouse over the Bills taking 1 guy that they have never seen over another guy that they have never seen pisses me off. The 5 minutes of YouTube highlights that they watched don’t classify them as knowledgeable!! Sorry for the rant and thanks for letting me get that off my chest.

Boatdrinks Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I was at a downtown BUF establishment and I'd say the reaction was the same. I'm guilty of this: I facepalmed and groaned in agony when the Commish said ...Allen. I'll admit , I only watched him play in two games and I wasn't impressed. Maybe I just saw two of his worst games, I don't know. After years of disappointment I wanted to see the FO make the safer pick here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosen-not-Chosen Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Have to wonder what a guy like Pegula thinks when he watches something like this. I'm sure Beane and McDermott ignore stuff like this, but I think Pegula watches this kind of stuff. Very disheartening for a lot of Buffalo Bills fans that pick was.

ExWNYer Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I'm sure that of the 'Big Four' (Darnold, Mayfield, Rosen, & Allen), Allen wouldn't have been the first choice of "most" Bills fans...but whether the Bills had chosen Allen or any of the other three, there would have been a segment of the fan base that was going to be pissed at the selection regardless. That's the nature of today's hot take interwebs. I, for one, admit to being crestfallen when they chose Allen over Rosen but I quickly moved on and hope that the organization got the right guy. As fans, that's all we can do whether or not we agree with the team's choices. Go Josh Allen and GO BILLS!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
