And with watson, I liked him but also was worried about his turnovers and he would be a good decision maker in the NFL. Admitedly my main preference was to trade down and go defense because we just finished a season where in the 15 games TT started (he sat final week) we were 3rd in NFL for most TDs and tied for fifth in scoring. Meanwhile outside the fluke NE shutout with no Brady and Gronk, our D was ranked 28th and giving up over 26 points per game. I knew TT wasn’t the long term answer but I also knew the next years QB crop was supposed to be deep too. I would have been fine drafting a QB in 2017, just felt the D was in way worse shape at that time. But this is why I thought Mahomes was different than Allen 1). Reid. He chokes in the playoffs but he is one of the best offensive coaches of the last 20 years. If we had Reid pick Allen, I’d blindly trust it. I don’t have the same faith in SM and Daboll. Sorry. 2). College production. It definitely doesn’t mean nfl success but if you’re a first round qb, I want to see you dominant. Mahomes did and Allen rarely did. 3) Mahomes elite skills, which Allen as has. 4) sitting behind a vet. I was never a big Tyrod fan but he would have been a great guy for a young qb to sit behind to start their career. we disagree about this a bit but I always appreciate the perspective and I genuinely hope White and Allen turns out to be a good trade for us.

MrEpsYtown Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 (edited) I'm just watching this game for free agency. I think Mitch Morse has looked pretty good so far. Looks to be the only guy on KC sustaining his blocks. Tyrell Williams and Chris Conley haven't been impressive.

And that’s why I think Allen is a part of how you evaluate the trade. If Allen becomes at worst a solid starting nfl qb, the trade can be acceptable. If he has a JP Losman career, it’s a complete disaster no matter how good Tre White is (and he is borderline great). And you can say hindsight but isn’t that the whole job of a nfl gm?

As an aside, I still have an unopened box of Flutie flakes! As do I! And I got grounded for sneaking to the pantry to try to eat them because I loved Flutie and I loved frosted flakes. The night my parents caught me trying to eat a cerimonial box of cereal, berating me over my 11 year old life decisions, and putting the Flutie flakes where I couldn't reach em.. that was the day I learned what it really meant to be a Bills fan boys. I'm opening up my soul here. And I still have those f***ing Flutie flakes. And I'll eat those f****ers when we make a SB to end the curse. And I'll probably have food poisoning during a bills SB.

MrEpsYtown Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Anyone else find it interesting that the Chargers can't protect, yet will not let Forrest Lamp play? I mean he was a high second round pick who was projected to be very good. Unless he hasn't fully recovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
