thurst44 Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 It's really quite amazing to remember how bad the defense was in that first game (and then the first half of the next game) and to imagine that the team would be one Baker-Mayfield-pass-on-his-last-drive away from the #1 defense in football. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the feeling I got. Still neat we got a supposedly potential #1 pick at #9 anyways. 43 minutes ago, DJB said: My long range prediction of this thread is that it goes down in flames.

RyanC883 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 some interesting stuff in that thread (it's only 2 pages). Someone said no way we would take D, another said, "take Haskins," which is somewhat impressive given it was at the beginning of the college season I think, and another (not me) astutely noted, "We traded the whole team for the opportunity to pick Allen. Now we have a QB that isn't ready yet and no other playmakers. It's gonna be a long year but a really fun off-season." Interesting to read all of that now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Landing Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 In July of 1973, I posted on the internet that OJ Simpson would run for over 2,000 yards that season. I was only nine years old, and Al Gore was still in college. How impressive is that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I refuse to give a frustrated fan credit for assuming we finish dead last and would take the #1 prospect in most mock drafts at the time. 2 hours ago, downunderbill said: I remember that post draft/first two games period.

BringBackFergy Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I can't find the thread but I remember @Cripple Creek suggesting that Josh Allen looked like a perfect prospect for the Bills during his first year at JuCo and subsequent year at Wyoming (before his shoulder injury). If I find the thread I'll link it. It's important because this was before any other national "expert" got on the Josh Allen train. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can always do it yourself though. You got an issue bro... I didn’t call you out once... There are tons and tons and tons of 5* recruits who never pan out... who never star in college tons of 5* QBs who never do anything he was a highschooler when I said that... and I was the first to talk about him here Every 17 year old has massive bust potential and All I said was he was the best HS QB I’ve ever seen and was going to be a top pick... i was going to the us all American bowl You can be a douche but that is a prediction... because there are a dozens and dozens 5* QBs who haven’t planned out over the years fact most 5* football recruits don’t even make the league... but Lawrence was a guaranteed star when I made this when he was a high schooler ? Yea right funny joke 4 out of 10 5* QBs don’t even get drafted and 60% that do don’t even last 5-6 years in the league... 5* QB retention rate is 40% I realize it isn’t the boldest take... but nobody was even talking about Lawrence here in 17 Edited May 13, 2019 by Buffalo716 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
