Having Kyle Brandt and Adam Schein in your corner is kinda cool tbh. Michael Robinson too.

(frank)in better than Skip Bayless' cowboys

Kyle used 2 plays for them, the allen TD to diggs and the diggs catch where he knocked the jet player down on the jet's sideline and just stared at him on the ground

I'm looking at CB, G in the first couple rounds but am unopposed to a quality player, say a WR, if one drops to them in the 1st

assuming they are moving on from sanders and maybe cole after this season

the needs I think are
guard
wr
de
dt
lb depth
cb
safety depth

9 picks and free agency to pick them up


side note do they pay wallace or let levi walk?
he has played strong the last 4 games although he was against weak passers/wr's

He was one pelvic thrust away from an 80 yard taunting penalty.

No doubt o-line needs attention, but I really like the idea of keeping CB stocked with quality.
Another Bulldog player that caught my eye last night was ILB Channing Tindall, who's projected as a lower round pick.

I'm hoping he plays like he did last game these playoffs. If not, I'm unopposed to trading him.

If he's traded, who replaces him for the upcoming season? Klein? A free agent? A draft pick?

Edmunds has been one of the best MLB in the entire league, People here just have unrealistic expectations of him.

Matt Milano has been just about above average, yet people think he is god.

Its a weird fanbase.

I always appreciate a man with long braids or dreds. TE just needs to have his "Bills moment" for lack of a better term. A truly clutch unbelievable play at an uncanny time for the Bills. Perhaps it happens this playoffs? The instant it does the narrative forever changes on him.

I disagree on MM. I think he is well above average.

My thought process is this:

Is Edmunds reliant upon dominant play from the d-line to impact the game? I'm leaning towards yes which for me (a non-coach or gm) doesn't justify a $12m cap hit next year. But again, if he plays the way he did vs. the Jets in the playoffs, then that's huge for the d and the club.

He's the Bills' version of Risto with the fan base. You know where I stand. It's an opinion, nothing more nothing less

Spot on with the Risto comp. Though I think he's better at his job than Risto by some margin.

Edmunds makes some boneheaded mistakes because he lacks confidence in his first reads, he hesitates sometimes. Overall, he's an extremely effective and intelligent MLB. It's fair to say he's a top 10-12 MLB.
