Granted I see the same things at our games, but that's because we have sucked horrendously for a long time now.

This was early in the season. Falcons were like 2-1 after that game! Lol

Falcons are having a hell of a draft though... Not the biggest fan of Jalen Collins, but Quinn knows what he's doing in that department. Rest of the picks have been excellent.

It was also a school night against Tampa....

Awfully quiet in here after the draft... No one excited about their new players?

NBA and NHL playoffs are far more relevant

I liked our draft. It wasn't flashy, but we added depth/competition where we needed it. I think Darby has a really high ceiling, and he should be seeing the field immediately.

Nope were all so mesmerized by the fight of the Century which took place Sat Night.

You're not gonna like this (and it's strictly my opinion), but I thought the Bills had the worst draft of any team. Not having a 1st rounder due to the Sammy trade is part of that, I guess, but I just genuinely didn't like a single pick by you guys.

It reminded me of many painful Titans drafts, to be honest.

I'm not just hating on your draft because Kiper did. Kiper sucks, but I did happen to agree with him about the Bills draft.

Kiper's full of shit. Impossible to grade a draft this soon, but I really liked the players we added. I'm very pleased with our draft.

Mesmerized by that fight? Really? The only thing good that happened that night was game 7 of Spurs/Clippers.

Fight sucked... but that was exactly what I expected from it.

Just depends what your favorite sport is, I guess.

NFL is at the top for me, by a long shot. Lost interest in the NHL playoffs once the Preds got knocked out. I'll just watch elimination games from now on.

I loosely pull for the Grizzlies, but they have absolutely no chance against you guys. Grizz would be lucky to win one game.

I personally don't care about any of the remaining teams in NBA/NHL, but I will probably pull for the Warriors when they get past the Grizzlies.

Nobody will really know for another 1-3 years to get excited, or not.

You can't fully evaluate a draft until 2-3 years down the road, but if you know enough about the players, you should have an idea right now whether or not to be excited.

I'm about as excited as when I draft my FF team each year. Sure they look great on paper, but lets see what happens.

I think with Greg Hardy, Randy Gregory, DeMarcus Lawrence and Jeremy Mincey, we may actually have the best set of 4 DEs in the league. Could be the difference between a serviceable at best defense and one of the top 10 defenses in the league.

I hope so but it's a little too early because of the obvious we need to see them play and play together and hopefully eligible to play together.

I'll take ours and I am heavily biased lol. I fully expect us to have at minimum a top 5 defense.

I thought the Jets had the best draft. Liked how you guys also stole Zac Stacy for a 7th rounder.

It's a shame they still have no QB because that defense is nasty. With an average QB, that's probably the #1 defense in the league.

I expect the defense to be on the field for too long, which will hurt their ranking.

I'm almost more excited for Clive Walford than i am Amari Cooper.
A lot of scouts had him as the top TE. He dropped in the draft because his cockyness turned off teams

I liked our draft too. I really wanted Mariota and then Kevin White. But Leonard Williams is a very solid pick (more than not he was the highest rated player in the draft). To get him with the #6 is a pretty good deal.

Best scenario is Fitz beats out Geno and performs as an average QB.

I'm really enjoying the beginning of the Mac/Bowles pairing. Mac certainly is putting together a much more talented roster than last year. He has essentially wiped away the scouting department and is bringing in his own staff. Jets fans have been clamoring for this for years especially Teflon Terry Bradway.

We should have a pass rush and our back end should be formidable. I think this is our most talented defense in a very long time (more talented than any team Rex fielded).
