Word came out that he was the last receiver left on Allen’s wish list. Thats a big deal. Why would Beane not want to consult the face of his franchise when trying to get him more weapons? This tells me that Allen’s wish list included Harrison, Nabers, Odunze, Coleman, and probably Thomas. Think of it this way…if worthy, pearsall, or legette were on that list, they would have taken them at 28, or at most 32 for legette. I’m sure Beane would have liked to have traded down another time, but he could have risked losing Coleman. I wasn’t overly thrilled with Coleman being the guy, but while he might lack separation on tape, and a good 40 time, he also had amazing splits in the 40 and other drills. The drills are where the football comes out in these guys…you know, catching the ball. Haha. Anyways…when you look at the bigger picture with Coleman, it’s not a bad pick at all. The guy is really athletic, has great hands and body control…and most of all…Allen wanted him. That’s great that Allen likes him but let’s not turn this into drafting Shabazz Napiers for LeBron. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goin Breakdown Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 58 minutes ago, balln said: Allen has been on record and even piecing together his off seasons. He takes 1-2 months off completely. No working out. Goes plays golf. Travels w his lady friend he says he doesn’t participate in draft process, no interviews, no game tape he said he watches the YouTube highlight vids. I DO not want in anyway Allen to make picks directly. I think this is all funny interview filler. This describes most of us haha. No working out. Hanging out with the lady. Golf. Watches YouTube highlights. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amprov56 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) 11 minutes ago, Brandon said: The QB knows more than we do as average fans, but he's still a player and not a scout. He hasn't worked in the pro or college personnel department. I honestly think everyone, to include Josh Allen is aware of that. Despite the endless negative gibberish you read on TBD, the Buffalo Bills are considered to be a first class NFL franchise and while I'm not a fly on the wall nor have a hotline to Brandon Beane or the Pegulas, we have been a perrenial playoff team since the arrival of the new regime. You dont become an NFL GM making poor decisions! As in any organization, coporate, military, or small business - you need input from the ground up. BTW, visit North or South Carolina and ask them if they would welcome "McBeane" back. Edited April 27 by amprov56 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 It doesn't matter until we see him play and how they will use him. Everything else is speculation that in all honesty is meaningless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToGoGo Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 I’m against Coleman because I don’t think he will work out however I am very confident that the Bills have done serious due diligence on him and his character. They have made two top notch draft picks after him which solidified in my mind that this is a top class organization regardless of how Coleman works out.

dgrochester55 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) I get the preference for receivers and some fans wishing that they drafted someone else. What I do not get is the logic from fans who see drafting a WR with their first pick as "doing nothing" to upgrade the position and at the same time think that trading up to get a WR in Franklin who everyone passed on three times will instantly solve the WR depth issue.

BillsPride12 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Is it just me or does anybody else see some similarities with Eric Moulds? If he can pan out to be that type of player at the NFL level I would be very happy 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Looking at some of Coleman's catches - I bet he snags that 60-yarder that Diggs missed. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo03 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) Beane: Josh who are your list of WRs you want me to draft? Josh: (gives list) Harrison, Nabers, Odunze, Thomas and Coleman Beane: Ok, thanks. Beane drafts Coleman Beane: Josh....I got your last guy for you Josh: Awesome. Can you grab a few other guys for me too? Beane: Mmmmm. I kinda wanna go back to my routine defensive drafting. Is that ok? Josh: Ugghhhh....I guess. Beane: Thanks Buddy. Happy draft day. Love ya Edited April 27 by Buffalo03 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPL Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Allen loves throwing to the guy that isn't open... so makes sense to get the guy who makes catches when he isn't open. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyNoodles Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 2 hours ago, Sammy Watkins' Rib said: You don't get put in as punt returner if you don't have some natural athletic ability. The fact that he returned punts for FSU at his body size is a good sign IMO. This guy has football quickness and IQ. I can’t recall a punt returner that big. He definitely has a lot of agility for somebody his size. One other thing about punt returners, IMO it’s the second hardest job at a skill position next to QB. You have to some big time courage and confidence at that job. It seems this kid has that “dog” attitude players like to talk about and I like that. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Otreply Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 I suspect that asking Josh about a “potential” draft pick is more a courtesy than anything, it’s like a courtesy invite that they are hoping you turn down…, Josh likely said something to the tune of, get me a bigger taller target, etc , jmo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
