We're at a critical juncture in the life of this regime. It would take some amazing on field results for a whiff on Coleman to be shrugged off.

Brandon Beane, one of the most overrated GMs in the NFL.

If someone else drafted Allen hes scouting D3 guards

watching him, I really can’t tell if it’s a true effort problem. Sometimes when someone can’t compete, it looks like they aren’t trying when they actually are (but just are bad).

Ive seen him just slow down and quit on plays probably because he cannot compete at this level. Poor game speed, doesn’t understand coverages, and cannot break tackles.

I think it would be a lot easier to write it off as just a bad pick if not for the way Beane doubled down on his handling of the WR position in that infamous radio interview after the draft. 

I haven't heard the clip. I understand the investment in the WR position and can understand that Coleman has a higher ceiling than McConkey. But part of scouting is personality assessment. It's especially concerning given that we've whiffed on defense picks too

Sure sounds like an apology call is in order for a pair of radio hosts I know 

Beane would never. After the incident happened I was totally expecting some written fluff apology or something along those lines to come out the next day but instead Beane went on the Pat McAfee show and doubled down on it and had a good old time laughing it up about the situation and how great the Bills offense was

Said it was a shiz pick on draft night. THIS has been my major frustration as a Bills fan: watching them make stupid decisions and KNOWING they are bad decisions in real time. It’s maddening. 
 

I wanted Xavier Worthy at that pick or Ladd McConkey in a trade down. 
 

But no, McBeane is smarter than everyone else because he got LUCKY passing on Mahomes (stupid) and lucking into Allen.


It is frustrating when so many fans are correct when questioning certain draft picks. 
 

The fanbase, pretty overwhelmingly, didn’t like the Elam, Basham, Coleman and Carter picks. 
 

Especially Coleman and Basham. 
 

And what do you know, 4 recent premium picks, and the fans were right. 
 

Maybe Carter can be a functional rotational DT next year, maybe.

The official Bills X account released it and made fun of WGR. Arrogant Bully.

 I would NEVER let Beane forget it if I was Jeremy.  EVER.

Yes to his credit Jeremy has been very professional on the way he has handled the aftermath of the incident. Kudos to him

It doesn't seem that the group of WRs from Coleman's year has turned out to be the great, deep group of WRs that was advertised.  Even the WRs selected before Keon have been disappointments to some degree.  I don't see Keon becoming a quality WR and I would not be surprised if he is not back with the Bills next season.  We will need two real boundary WRs next season in addition to all of the other needs that we will have.

Quit your day job and become an NFL GM then.  

 

By the way, you can thank Doug Whaley for passing on Mahomes.  Beane WAS NOT GM until May of 2017, shortly after that draft.  Beane had NOTHING to do with that.

Quit the message board and grow a brain. 
 

“McBeane” covers both McDermott and Beane, got it internet cowboy?

It’s frustrating that Josh took Diggs to another level and got so much out of Beasley, Brown, Sanders, even Robert Foster. 
 

Beane has brought in guys with similar (with exception of Diggs) career experience in Samuel, Palmer, and Moore, yet they can’t come close to their past career averages here.  The QB didn’t change, so that leaves…..

Exactly. All the fans who suck at scouting can’t understand this. But yes, this.

There are some whiffs that are just too obvious, and they hit me like when our OC gets too cute and try’s a stupid gimmick play when the obvious play is the right choice. 
 

The one that still drives me up a wall was when they passed on DK for that RT (I believe…but it was someone worthless). 
 

If you want to go down that rabbit hole, with DK, no need to trade for Diggs. No trade, we keep our #1 that could’ve been J.Jefferson. 
 

Obviously just a “what if” fever dream but imagine what JA could’ve done with DK /JJ and it’s not like it would’ve taken Madden like trades. This was what was right in front of us.

Could be the reversal of info is something that actually happened behind the scenes. These people are just reporting what they are told and it could be something happened that changed the Bills’ mind. Like, telling Coleman he wasn’t starting and he didn’t take it well, so they pulled him out completely.

 

There's at least one other possible scenario.

 

Teams will sometimes intentionally leak false information to some employees they suspect of being the source of previous leaks. If the false info is publicly reported it implicates the employee or few employees that were fed that info.

Id argue his work in later rounds offsets those misses tho, we draft very well imo

 

 

I disagree, you cant miss how he does in the early rounds.
