Jeff Caldwell is inarguably the closest thing we've ever seen to Calvin Johnson based on athletic testing, and yet, he's supposed to go.... Round 5 or Round 6 in the Draft?
Pretty crazy
I know I'm the "athleticism doesn't matter for WRs" guy, but this is literally the most athletic WR ever (99.9 SPORQ)
@dresalter@KevinMassare Regardless though, he’s not 4 rounds better. I’d love to eat crow on this but given the cap situation and contract value for a player the bears were going to cut, a 2nd is rich. I could live with a 3rd but a 2nd was more than I was expecting.
@4JoshReed I agree. Th promotion absolutely backed Beane into a corner because now he has no excuses if the roster fails. Players and coach decision are his.
Now we need to see how aggressive he can get while maneuvering the cap
I can see it now... the home opener, brand new stadium, new HC that's suppose to represent change, new season full of hope to get over the hump, first play of the game: Josh lines up in shotgun, screen pass to Shakir for a 1 yard loss.
So by promoting Brandon Beane and Joe Brady the #Bills have essentially full placed the entire blame for personnel, offensive & defensive struggles on Sean McDermott's shoulders. Guess we'll quickly figure out how deserving that was.
@4JoshReed had the bills won and this game been in NE, how do you think they would’ve fared today? Give the weather going on in NE, I think it would’ve been a close and gritty game but I feel like I would’ve liked our chances…

@4JoshReed Beane also has drafted rather poorly with his numerous picks in the fist 3 rounds with minimal exceptions. This past draft looks promising so far (aside from sanders (another potential whiff with trade up), but too many times he’s missed at critical spots in positions of need.
@4JoshReed Beane needs to fix the cap but also swing for established & actively productive players esp WR to get this team over the hump bc its been the same ending every yr for last 6 years. Its about time hes started feeling some heat bc this subpar roster has his fingerprints all over it
