I think Freeland is a lower 2nd possibility, but I see him coming off early in the 3rd. Duncan and Morris are also good choices at 91.
Joe D. was just talking about how terrible some of Shakir's underlying metrics were, basically echoing an article from Buscaglia last week where he said the following:
Of course, there are other numbers that paint a completely different picture:
Did Buscaglia actually watch tape on Shakir's snaps? Did he analyze the play design, look at the actual routes run. Was Shakir even part of Allen's progression on any of those plays? I would say probably no. That's why I default to the Cover1 guys, the rest of the Buffalo media only ever talks about skill positions, it's like they grew up playing madden and have no appreciation for anything outside of the QB and WR positions
Phillips is on a one-year contract with just a $1.2mm dead cap hit if released. He could easily be a camp casualty. They're stuck with Settle ($5.2mm dead cap) but he doesn't offer much. Same with some of the DEs who, beyond Miller and Groot, are essentially JAGs.

I think when someone has just 10 catches on 275 snaps it's a fair thing to talk about, especially in response to those that were projecting him into our starting lineup. The fact that he was a 5th round pick in a historically bad draft class just reinforces that, in my opinion. I think he's still a fun prospect with some upside, but I never understood those penciling him into the starting lineup, especially after the Harty and Sherfield signings.
I really like Buscaglia and wouldn't lump him in with the WGR and TBN losers at all. I think he's the best thing going in Buffalo Bills sports media. I think his observation about Shakir stands, he had very poor production relative to the amount of snaps he played. Maybe the issue was more Allen not having faith in him as opposed to him actually not getting open, but the production wasn't there. Evidently the Bills didn't have much faith in him either, as seen by the parade of old guys they brought in end of the year to erase him.
I like (most of) the Cover 1 crew for what they are, amateur fans doing this as a hobby, like us. Some of them really get on my nerves on twitter when they get too high on their own supply, though and start seeing themselves as better than other fans (or some of the silly feuding between different podcasters - there's enough space for everyone folks).
But back to the topic at hand, the WGR boys are being insufferable, that we can all agree on.
Dalton Kincaid Tight End Utah | NFL Draft Profile & Scouting Report
Rating: 87.0 Rank: #3 Forty: 4.71 Dalton Kincaid is an elite receiving tight end, who possesses super soft hands, runs crisp well disciplined routes, and has the speed that makes him almost...www.nfldraftbuzz.com
He was used from a variety of positions at Utah and ran a wide variety of routes making him maybe the most pro ready TE in this class.
Last year, Kincaid’s snap distribution was 55.1% in the slot, 9.5% wide, and 35.4% inline. I believe that's similar to what the Cover-1 guys said were Kelce's percentages.

"The 30-45% a JSN/Flowers/Addison doesn't play in the slot, they'll be out wide."
They're missing the forest for the trees. It's not going to matter what position he plays. All that matters is how Buffalo utilizes him, and if they're successful doing so.
Anyone think they might take a flyer on the Mapu from Sac St in 5/6 ? or does Rapp already fill that hybrid role ?
they all hated Josh Allen 5 years ago, I bet that's not on their linkedin pages! lol Going to Newhouse or Brockport does not make you an expert.
It's radio consultant playbook 101. It get's the low-hanging fruit of barstool fans to call in.
Seen a couple replies like this. I wouldn’t have taken Downs here. But Downs in the early 2nd plus more draft picks maybe would be better. My point is a day one pick to turn a TE into a slot receiver when a day two pick on a slot receiver may have had the same impact is not exactly ideal. Kincaid is a better player, but might not do better in the slot WR role. THAT said, I acknowledge Kincaid offers more if he develops as a blocker.Except they obviously had a first round grade on Kincaid and not on Downs
I like Downs quite a bit, but I think Kincaid brings a lot more to the table.
Done that about 100 times today.
Their big board is a bit messed up & they haven't updated the team needs for when the CPU picks... Which leads to some strange results.Done that about 100 times today.
At first I thought the sim was broken, since it went through the 1st round at warp speed.
Bills still have pick 130 in the PFN sim. Also, I've been pretty successful trading 91 for a 4th and 5th.
