Fatherly Advice to Josh Allen

Manifesting R Mason Thomas Into a Bills' Uniform

Inside this edition of the Bills, Bills, Bills Pod, I'll tell you why I so, so, so badly want R Mason Thomas in a Buffalo Bills (should that be possessive?) come late-April. But if not R Mason Thomas, then I'd be really happy with Akheem Mesidor. Ideally both, though! I also think Keionte Scott rules, and Darrell Jackson, Jr. rocks, and Jayshawn Barham is awesome, and Brenen Thompson is cool, and Bishop Fitzgerald could be great, and Josh Moten could be sick, and Dominic Zvada deserves to be drafted not just signed as a UDFA.   Don't skip the musical interlude!

Jim Leonhard Archetypes

Inside this edition of the Bills, Bills, Bills Pod, the hiring of Jim Leonhard provides us Bills fans with a freedom we have no known in a long, long time when mocking college prospects to our defense. In this mock, we mock Sonny Styles, who's dropped to us at 26, along with his defensive teammate, Kaydan McDonald, who has suffered a similar mock-fate, to the Bills at 60. We round out the draft with Treydan "My Guy" Stukes, Malachi Fields, Michael Taaffe, Eric Gentry and Bryce Boettcher. 🦬 ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Mock Drafting in the Jim Leonhard Era

With the announcement on January 31, 2026 that Jim Leonhard would be assuming the role of Defensive Coordinator for the Buffalo Bills, a new suite of archetypes has become available to Brandon Beane and the front office who select players in the NFL Draft. That's freakin' exciting! Prospects like R Mason Thomas, Cashius Howell, and Romello Height are now - theoretically, anyhow - on the menu, or at least, not intrinsically prohibited from appearing on the menu thanks to the 3-4-ish defensive scheme that Leonhard runs. Heck, big papas like Kaydan McDonald, who didn't fit McDermott's one-gap, penetrating style of IDL may profile as potential fits in the new system. That's doubly exciting! In this mock draft I select R Mason Thomas (EDGE, Oklahoma) in R1, followed by Darrell Jackson, Jr. (DT, Florida State), Malachi Fields (WR, Notre Dame), Aiden Fisher (LB, Indiana), Jadon Canady (NCB, Oregon), Mason Reiger (EDGE, Wisconsin), Eli Heidenreich (FB, Navy).

Fatherly Advice to Josh Allen

Dads are models of consistency. Right now, the Bills are world-beaters one week and bottom-feeders - if even... lower than scum? - the next. That's not dad-like consistency. And the only - yes, only - path towards team-wide consistency is on a ship steered by #17, Josh Allen: SuperDad. Buffalo's quarter-of-a-billion superstar QB is in year eight at the helm, and his 36-year-old OC, Joe Brady, has not proven capable of synchronizing the four chambers of the offense's heart: The run, the pass, the OL, and the play-calling. Josh has a chance to write a new opus over the course of the next 8-12 games. It won't be easy, but it is simple: Be a good dad. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

My Top-10 Most Important Buffalo Bills for 2025-26: Part VI

#10 Keon Coleman 🦬 In each of Drake London's three seasons, he has been moved around the formation with increasing frequency, culminating in a 2024-25 season during which he only played 60% of passing snaps from wide alignments, and finishing with the 4th most receiving yards in the NFL. I submit that Keon Coleman ought to be similarly distributed among the pre-snap pass-catching positions (X, Y, Z, F) to make the most optimal use of his length and strength. If Brady dials things up right, Josh can just sit back and sling the ball around the field to any of the now many weapons he has at his disposal. Defenses should be back on their heels in 2025-26, and if they can no longer sleep on Keon, he'll have earned his nomination as my 10th most important Buffalo Bill for this year. Thanks to The Draft Professor [https://draftprofessor.com/] for the tip about how enjoyably home-grown out Buffalo Bills roster is 🙌 That list o' mine again: 1. Josh Allen 2. Matt Milano 3. Taron Johnson 4. TJ Sanders 5. Spencer Brown 6. Dion Dawkins 7. Terrel Bernard 8. Landon Jackson 9. Ed Oliver 10. Keon Coleman ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
