SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 New breaking news!!! A team is “impressed” with the rookie QB they drafted. All this talk is talk. We wont know crap until they play a meaningful game. (For rookies preseason is meaningful). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not even sure what that posters point is. Everyone has been raving about his size, athleticism and the fact they think he can fill out even more and have good speed for an LB in the NFL. I think he's the one guy we all can be excited about. His tackles are bigger than him? The !@#$ does that have to do with anything. Every great LB in the modern era played with tackles bigger than him. 2 hours ago, oldmanfan said: Mine is simple.

I'm sorry it went over your head, but it's simple headline writing. Edmunds is big. Allen is big. They are both first round picks, so they are betting "big". They took two really big athletic guys in the first round. I don't see the point in disparaging him, or making the point into something else like you are.

It's amazing how almost half of the three pages in this thread can't grasp that simple point.

Golden Goat Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 (edited) The Bills still have a full draft in 2019 and buckets of cash for free agents to replace Allen and Edmunds if they're really that bad (which they won't be). How is it such a big bet? Edited June 2, 2018 by Golden Goat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
