0017 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 It’s just great to see them get there guy, not settle for what’s left after there guy goes two or three picks before, I was really disappointed by the Allen pick but I think Beane is a hell of a GM and we should trust his judgment. I do love the Edmunds pick! Excellent trade up to grab him potential to defensive rookie of the year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent trade up to grab him potential to defensive rookie of the year. this is pretty much exactly where i landed as well. i was very disappointed by the selection of allen over rosen. but moments after the selection, i came to grips with the fact that this is our guy. and i will support him and wish him nothing but the best.

I yanked that comment in like a minute after re-reading what Chris Mortensen said about Pegula on Allen. Think Mortensen made it seem Pegula wanted Allen more than Pegula meant for it to appear. That's why tight lips are best around reporters. Words get misinterpreted, but even the seemingly professional ones can't resist to spin, even subtly.

No, I'd like them to make smart decisions based on real world data and analytics. Obviously neither was used in the QB selection process. The data points to Allen not having much success in the NFL.

I often disagree with Promo but he nailed it this time. Brandon, Levy, Whaley, and Nix were horrid; even TD was a disgrace on The Bills. These folks seem to be different. They had a plan and executed it and the plan makes sense. Joe, I would rather take a risk on a qb than lose with another 1st round DB, even if it was Minkah! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBLESS Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 This is a hard group to please. Let's say that between the few who wanted to keep TT and the group who would like a new qb but did not want to waste draft capital trading up, you have , for the sake of argument, 25-30% of the fan base. That leaves 70-75% who wanted to trade some or all of our draft picks to get THEIR choice [ not necessarily 1BD choice] of the top 4 rated gb's, then there's the relatively the low % who wanted Jackson or Rudolph. Let's say this 70-75% group was roughly evenly divided between the top four. Out of 100 typical fans that would look like this: 25% wanted to keepTT or did NOT want to trade up 3% draft either Jackson or Rudolph 18% Rosen 18% Allen 18% Mayfield 18% Darnold you could adjust those percentages any way you want, but no matter how you cut it Beane had AT BEST a chance to please about 25% of the fans. I still like HIS chances of getting it right working with a large group of professional scouts and coaches over "the pizza delivery guy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lfod Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) They have done everything I wanted. They traded huge contract rotational star Dareus. They traded limping decoy pay me huge Watkins. They benched and traded saftey dance Tyrod. They started 5 pick Peterman. They even got one of the top 4 rookie QBs in a ha we leaked your tweets grab your pitchforks Josh Allen. They even broke the drought and got into the Playoffs in the offence has no point in being here 3 point game. They don't have to care what I think, just keep doing what I love and not caring about my opinion. Now what I want is McBeane to keep giving me that sweet sweet pure entertainment.
