What if we let Zadarov play up all year?

It might be unfair to Risto and Pysyk but it's an idea that keeps coming to me. But I guess we really don't need to rush Zadarov or any of the youngsters for that matter.

I'm a 1.

I have no faith in the Bills period.

Alonso hurt, Glenn sick. Soon Watkins will sprain his ankle and he won't be the same for the whole year

8-8

Losing Kiko hurts, and who knows what happens with Dareus.

Defense will not be the sack machines they were last year. Would be
hard to match, anyway.

Offense, even though they averaged over 20 pts. game last year, will be better with
additions, especially Watkins. Manuel takes baby steps.

Predicting a win against New England and a road win at Oakland is bold. We've beaten NE twice in our last 23 tries? We haven't won in Oakland since 1966.


6-10.

To be fair they also had 1/3rd of Tampa's defense at one point or another too.

Not only will Zadorov not be up here this year...
He'll be in the ahl next year as well, at least to start
He was a guy from the start that was gonna need a lot of development
Loads of talent and potential, but still pretty raw

They'll be lucky to split with Miami
There's NO way the beat the Pats or Pack unless their QBs get hurt.
8 wins is a big reach unless Watkins & EJ play like ProBowlers...
I think we he about 5 wins
Ej has talent, and I like his potential as a leader...
But he has big accuracy issues that will take time to work out
I expect a lot of up & down with him this year
Next year I'm hoping for some real improvement

I'm really excited to see how much better Zads and Baptiste's offensive game will be this season.

I like those prospects as well
There's a bunch I like from that draft class especially
Ristolainen will be a cornerstone for our defense for years
Possler is a guy I think has a chance to make an impact for us in a few years
Hurley and Bailey need a lot of developing
Compher I can't wait for... Be he needs some time too. He could Captain teamUSA for the World JRs this year
And its way too early to tell with Petersen, but he's got potential too

Although we didn't pick him...
I think Fasching was from that draft as well

Great draft for sure, but it's not even just that I like Zads and Baptiste, but they both had spikes in their stats last year and I'm intrigued as to how much better they can make their offensive game. Especially Zadorov, who if he keeps his offense up (or even better, continues to improve it), is looking like he should have gone much earlier in the draft. Great mix of size and off. skill.
