PSA- Beane on PMT


plenzmd1

Recommended Posts

Heads up. Beane is on Pardon My Take Friday’s podcast. I have not listened yet, but should be good. 
 

for those who have never listened to PMT, they  are very funny, but can be too crude for some folks , especially with language.

Just listened to it.  Talked about needing a #1 WR and how they tried to go after some guys at the trade deadline last season.  Bemoaned having to settle for FGs at Houston.  Said at the end of the day they know they have to score more points.  Diggs is better than what they felt they could get at #22 and (pats self on back) with the COVID-19 situation having a veteran rather than a rookie was a consideration also.

 

Otherwise, nothing too insightful.  Apparently Frank Gore has large balls.

For those of you that don't listen to PMT or follow them on Twitter, they're the guys who created DraftJoshAllen.com and started the "big hands, rocket arm, tall, looks good in shorts" stuff lol. They're big JA guys. Loved the interview. My big takeaway is that its confirmed that Frank Gore has huge balls.

HC says they didn’t need #1 WR.

When you don’t have a #1 wr and your team is making a playoff push, why would a coach say that they need a #1 wr?
 

just wondering

Poster upstream said Beane said they were trying to get a #1 WR last season before the trade deadline.  Yet McD had already stated that todays' NFL doesn't require one.

 

Then Beane himself said this "“I’m not one that subscribes to a ‘number one receiver’,” Beane told reporters during the NFL Combine. last year

In this interview, he also acknowledged that the Bills need to score more points and that it was frustrating settling for field goals in the playoff game against the Texans. 
 

Does saying that they don’t need a “true #1 receiver” mean that they aren’t allowed to get a really good receiver who can help the team? Are all good receivers automatically banned from discussion? Even when they say that the team needs to score more points? Because that would be dumb.

The point is that it is good news that he revised his thoughts on the (obvious) need for a #1 WR from a year ago and got one.

And like I had asked.  When you don’t have a #1 wr and you are a team clearly improving and making a push, what would you say when asked about not having a #1 WR.  
 

it’s not as if they just offer their opinion on the matter. They were asked about a #1 WR.  They didn’t have a legit #1.  So, what would you say?

they knew they needed a number 1.  They tried to trade for AB.  It didn’t look to be a strong WR by my estimation.  The FA class was lame.  
 

 They just didn’t have one and they answered the questions like they’re supposed to.  You can’t believe that all these interviews answers are the truth

Yeah, I agree -- WEO just likes to be the contrarian.

 

If you're a coach/GM and your team is in the midst of a playoff run you don't talk about what you don't have.  And even after the season is over, before you've made any roster moves, you still don't "tip your hand" publicly even if everyone else knows what your team needs.

Whats wrong with that statement?  Doesnt mean he doesnt like talented WR's, just means he doesnt see it as a team must have a #1 to succeed.  But if talent is available he has always said he will do everything he can to make the roster and team better and likes draft assets to use both to acquire veteran players in trade and to move around the draft to get guys they covet.

Oh I know. Really just wanted to see how he’d manipulate what I said in order to avoid answering the question

Well aren't we glad Beane changed his mind then.

 

Learning can happen.

Contrarian by pointing out how the guy's quotes were contradictory? Ok...

 

When that ("we don't need a #1 WR") was posted here last year a lot of posters were agreeing with it----simply because Beane said it.  Now, of course, same folks are saying the opposite----because Beane now says you need one.

If you truly believe it, nothing wrong with it at all.  When you conclude the opposite less than a year later, it's not evidence that you now like WRs.  The neglect of this position until this offseason has been well documented elsewhere anyway...

Neglect?  No offense man, but thats a misguided statement.

  1. You can not fix all positions at once.
  2. In a surprise playoff run year 1, they made a move to get a WR who did actually help us make the playoffs as we dont win the snow game without KB.
  3. Then with the QB in place, he went and got Brown and Cole last year and said they tried to trade for another in season.
  4. Now he traded for Diggs.

Sorry bud, saying he has neglected WR position is just false.

KB was a bust.  1 game doesn't change what was obvious.   They booted his dumpy azzzz

 

Beasely was a solid pickup.  Brown wasn't enough.  Bunch of solid WR available in the 2nd last year.  Went with T that will now move to G...and perhaps draft another T.

I'm not sure they know how to evaluate collegiate wr, but the actual wr room right now is good. Still like to see someone like Pittman or Claypool added.

I would be shocked if they went WR in the 2nd.
