Buffalo is one of the dumbest teams in the league.
Mahomes and Watson are both better than any QB from the 2018 class...JMHO and that may prove wrong in time, but Watson was shredding teams before he got hurt and Mahomes looks like the real deal.
Trubisky may end up being very good as well, but he didn’t show as much as the other 2 even with more opportunities...I just think those coaches will get him there. [Reply]

I said it over and over again last year. Fans who wanted us to trade shit away in the 2017 draft to collect picks in 2018 were completely ignorant of what the 2018 class would actually have for top-end QBs (I wouldn't take ANY of these choads over Mahomes). Secondly, YOU DON'T KNOW HOW THE 2017 SEASON WILL PLAY OUT. Buffalo tried their ****ing best to collect picks for 2018. They tried to tank. And the one season since 1999 that they WANT to tank, they make the ****ing playoffs. A low draft pick and a top-heavy QB class means if you don't trade up, you won't get one. And that's exactly what happened to them. They're paying far out the ass for the 4th best QB prospect in 2018, who isn't even close to what they could have had by simply keeping their 2017 pick and drafting the 2nd QB in 2017.

They probably regretted it during the season last year and they're really kicking themselves now. The Jets seem to have made it out OK. They still need to hit on the pick though. [Reply]

So does this mean that you are acknowledging that Mahomes has the makings of a very good quarterback now? Otherwise, why would the Bills care? This class is better than Mahomes by your view. [Reply]

I believe the Bills would've been better off taking Watson or Mahomes than being in the spot they're in now.
The Jets had to give up #6 (1600 points), #37 (530 points), #49 (410 points), and another 2nd round pick (~400 points) to move from 6 to 3 (2,200 points). The Bills are going to have to give up way more value than that to convince a team in the top 5 to drop down to #12, and if they don't, they'll be stuck with the 5th or 6th best QB in the draft.
At least Buffalo hit on Tre'Davious White last year... [Reply]

Ya the Bills are basically robbing Peter to pay Paul. I don’t like any of these QBs as much as Watson or Mahomes. I’ll be curious to look back at what KC gave up compared to them. They also should’ve moved on Fromm Tyrod after a couple games and tanked correctly. [Reply]
Broncos have practiced with a preseason opponent 4 straight years. Nothing finalized, but Broncos and Bears are discussing holding joint practice sessions prior to week 2 preseason game, per source. https://t.co/lfEpaLfGBm#9sports

One in the hand is better than two in the bush. [Reply]
