Rockee96 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Hi Everyone, I've been looking for reports to see how Josh Allen is doing so far. Any insights or observations? The news around him seems real quiet recently and I haven't heard much about him. To be honest, I was one of those that was disappointed that we didn't draft the other Josh, but I'm hoping that our Josh is showing promise. Thoughts?

He has great arm strength, makes good throws, makes bad throws, has much more to learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 From what I hear from Sal and Vic, it sounds like they are bringing along slowly with the 3rds. I agree with their decision to take it slow with hm and get as many reps for AJ as possible as he’s definitely the starting guy week 1. Josh needs time to develop. He will learn the system slowly and when he’s finally ready, I trust McD and Daboll will get him in with the 1’s. Just remember what happened to the older Carr who was killed when the Texans who put him out there week1. I know they had to as an expansion team, but it ruined him he was sacked so many times. i don’t care if we see him at all this year, but if the experts think he is ready, they know when to put him in there. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In respect of AJ being the guaranteed starter Week 1, based on what I have heard to date they still appear to be giving Peterman equal time with the 1's so they might not have made up their minds yet..

And I think McBeane is OK with him not starting at all this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Yeah, they've got a year to get him ready. Year 2, he best be starting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be right, but I think AJ is more likely, but what do I know. He has more NFL experience than a guy who throws five picks in one half.

I think they need to decide between the two relatively quickly as they are both relatively inexperienced and need as much time as possible to develop some chemistry with KB , Clay and whoever the heck the rest of the receivers end up being...

machine gun kelly Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Agreed Aussie. im sure by training camp we will find out as one thing I gather about McD is he is pretty decisive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royale with Cheese Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Reports seems to be that he’s making some really good throws but also missing ones he should hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was tyrod still throwing the ball it wouldn’t have made it 5 yards beyond the line of scrimmage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaw66 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I don't think anyone knows anything yet. No matter how well Allen might be doing in OTAs, there's no reason to move him up to the second of first string yet. Moving him up quickly will raise expectations and put pressure on him. The guy has never been in an NFL camp, he's learning a new system with all new coaches, and he's been at it for less than three weeks. McD is keeping a low profile with him. If he's better than either of the other two, training camp is plenty of time to move him up. I'm sure the Bills haven't made any kind of decisions about when this guy is going to see the field. We'll know how he's doing when we see which squad he practices with in training camp and how many, if any, first team reps he gets in training camp and pre-season games. In other words, we will begin to know some things in a couple of months. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
