Von tore his acl before after 9 games....played all 16 games the following season, 14 sacks and All-Pro. Von having a positive hopeful attitude about everything is refreshing. Something a lot of fans aren't used to apparently Not the same thing...Von wasn't 34 years old when he tore it the first time. People got bent out of shape when many of us warned Tre may not be back to start the year...they got more bent out of shape when many of us warned he may struggle when he is back as it often takes until the next season before they bounce back. So young Von vs 34 old Von isn't a fair comparison. At his age, just playing at 34 without coming off an injury is a question on whether they will be the same player. But coming off this injury again, but now at age 34, certainly brings legitimate questions on when he will be back and how much it will affect him or not. Von is always optimistic, which is good, but doesn't change what he is trying to recover from at a much older age. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That part of Matt Parrino's recap was certainly exciting. Quote James Cook looks the part Cook looks bigger and quicker in his second OTAs after the Bills took him in the second round back in 2022. He’s the odds-on favorite to be the team’s starting running back and he looked the part on Tuesday. He had one play where he deked Bernard almost out of cleats on a run play and then later in practice beat linebacker Matt Milano down the left sideline for a big completion from Josh Allen. Cook showed off sure hands during practice, catching all the balls thrown his way. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brand J Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Last we saw of Diggs this offseason, I believe was at a fashion event. What would we say if Josh didn’t show up to OTAs but was instead seen in NYC with his new gal? Would it still be “it’s only voluntary!”? For the record, I don’t care what Diggs does in the offseason as long as he shows up when it’s mandatory and balls out. I just wonder how the perspective would change if it was Josh not taking part rather than Stefon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for a different reason than why I would want diggs there. I want Allen there to get the new guys acclimated to catching his fastball as soon as possible and work on the nuances of what each other is thinking. Diggs and Allen already have that chemistry so it's not as much of a big deal if he misses because we're know just because he's not there, doesn't mean he's not getting ready for the season. I want diggs there just so all this talk about him being there ends. If he showed up at the start, this isn't even a discussion. He could have gone the first day and not show up until mandatory mini camp and no one would care. Edited May 30, 2023 by The Wiz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wonder how the perspective would change if it was Josh not taking part rather than Stefon. Allen would be justly criticized if he weren't there. The QB is the engine that makes the offense run. There are a lot of new players and new-to-us players, and Josh needs to work with them and get them accustomed to how he wants them to run routes, and to catching his passes. Diggs is an individual contributor. Diggs not being there doesn't keep other guys from using their time to best advantage and is, in some ways, a benefit to the team. It gives Kincaid and Shakir and Shorter and Cook more pass-catching reps. As long as he and Allen get together enough to be on the same page (whether it's with the team or individually), it works 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beck Water Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 4 hours ago, HappyDays said: I was pretty interested in what Parrino said about Dezmon Patmon: Quote Kaiir Elam burned by fourth-year WR Dezmon Patmon stands 6-foot-4 and weigh 225 pounds and he gave Elam all he could handle on one rep during team drills. He made a quick move off the line of scrimmage, gained some separation, and then blew past Elam down the right sideline. Kyle Allen recognized Patmon’s win right away and lofted a beautifully-placed dime to the end zone for a touchdown to the former Indianapolis Colts sixth-round pick. Elam recovered a bit on the play after the initial move but couldn’t get all the way back into the play to impact the catch point. Elam is in the middle of another competition for the cornerback no. 2 job with veteran Dane Jackson and second-year cornerback Christian Benford. We quietly picked Patmon up off the Colts practice squad after the season. He's 6'4", 225 lbs, and ran a 4.48s 40 in the 2020 combine. It's interesting to wonder if he was the Colts version of Isaiah Hodgins (only faster) and if he can blossom given a chance. The bad news is that it doesn't seem as though he's ever played STs. As we know, that's expected for the WR who are further down the depth chart with the Bills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be great to have him there, even if he wasn’t practicing, to get acclimated to his new teammates and give pointers - as a captain - of course! But evidently that’s not in his character. The only problem I had with Diggs was publicly undressing his QB in the Bengals game and then skipping out early on the team. As Shannon Sharpe once told John Elway, “as long as you don’t openly complain about me dropping a pass, or running the wrong route, I’ll never publicly complain about you missing a pass.” Josh isn’t the type to show Diggs up if he drops a pass or runs the route differently than what he expected. He did have that one moment in the Bengals game when the two missed on one where he was motioning with his arm, but aside from that he’s always been quiet.

I don’t see how the two are comparable I put the question out there for discussion, mainly aimed at those who shout “it’s only voluntary!” I wanted to know if their position would change, or if they’d still sing the same song. Josh hasn’t missed any OTA periods since he was drafted as far as I can remember, except this year when he had to check out of a session early due to prior commitments. But at least he still took part at the start and was there for his teammates. This was a hypothetical question, not a Josh Allen/Stefon Diggs comparison. I know the two are completely different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
