if you think the RB you'll get at 30 is a difference maker, then you take him at 30. If you don't think there is much difference between the guy at 30 and a 3rd rounder, wait and go IOL or IDL, or LB, or whatever. But the argument that RB's are a dime a dozen is patently false. Put McCaffery, Barkley, Cook, Kamara on the Bills and the offense is exponentionallybetter/harder to defend.

the last place red zone defense owned our 1st place red zone offense. Daboll should apologize to everyone on the team for his playcalling (so shoul Fraizer and McD).

i saw that on TV. What set Diggs off?

he and yeldon both look better than singletary

I'm also fine with Knox being TE1. He was good enough this year when called upon. If Pitts for Fiermauth (sp--te from PSU) is there at 30 or 2nd round, respectively, I"d grab one. Otherwise, fine with what we have and would upgrade other areas first.

RB: we NEED a running game. A big, fast RB would be nice. We have two slow back, and Yeldon, whom the coaching staff should play more. OL: need to block for running and passing game. Can't let only 4 people get to Josh like last night DL: our DL is continually making tackles 5 yards past the line of scrimmage. A 1T would be ideal, second is an Edge. LB: could use a real MLB to move Edmunds outside, which hopefully helps the pass rush. If not a MLB, then a pass rushing LB. Edge: see DL and LB above. NEED to pressure the QB. I actually think that through the draft and FA we can address all of the above. the contract would likely be structured in a way to allow FA additions.

I liked Dane. I think he becomes the #2, hopefully we can keep Wallace, which gives us Wallace, Dane, and EJ at CB 2.

For everyone roasting the OP, this is a decent critique. Josh was not as good against the Ravens and KC as he was all season. So lets determine why. One reason: the OL play seriously deteriorated. KC was getting continual pressure with 4 DL, which allowed KC to drape coverage all over WR's. No one was open. We have a putrid screen game and lack a speedy back for it. Daboll could have helped with some plays to McKenzie, but didn't until the game was out of hand. So reason #1: OL. Reason 2: Gosh got sacked for something like 50 yards. He needs to throw it away MUCH sooner. If there is no one open, and no where to escape, option 3: throw away. Don't try to force an escape, particularly if it involves running backwards. With that said, there has rarely been a QB asked to carry an entire team this early in his career who has had this much success. We have no running game, our WR #2 is on a broken leg, and something was wrong with Brown, and our defensive game plan v. KC was a joke. In conclusion: (1) fix run game; (2) fix OL; (3) Josh throw it away sooner; (4) fix defense.

not a weight bearing bone makes sense. Still, ouch. That is a tough guy. And he still was productive (not as much as before, but still produced).

how is this even possible?> WOW.

I'd save a lot on the DL by letting most of them go. Use savings to sign Tomlinson from the Giants to play 1T and/or an Edge rusher, and draft those positions also.

Oliver would be much better with a real 1 tech next to him. Regarding Edmunds, I see him at replacement level. but he is still young, so he could improve. he is more of an outside LB. He is a huge liability in the run game. If we can't keep Edmunds, we could pick up a 1 tech and draft Edmunds replacement. Overall, the DL is a huge issue.

agreed. the coaching and game plans were terrible. the OL added to it with its terrible execution.

well, this wins true yet depressing post of the night. that said, I like Allen more than Boomer and we have a GM who may be better than Polian. I like our odds of catching and beating KC.

agreed. and hopefully a better RB and line will help him do that next year.

well. hopefully SB victory is on the way! but agree we are missing a run game, edge, 1 tech and some OL upgrades.

yep. esp. the last part. the Kc D just teed off on our passing game because we have no running game. and the OL was a disaater. OL was a disaster. Nice of them to back Allen up at the end, but how about blocking those guys to begin with.

yeah. it was those issues. we had no run game, letting Kc’s not great D key in and sell out to stop the pass (it worked), while KC played balanced on offense exploiting our terrible zone scheme that does not work against KC. we fix those weaknesses and we’ll beat KC.

yeah, looks like everyone was covered. OL was a disaster today.

or DC apparently. and hit him at the line.

agreed. cant’ be one dimensional. and DT and OL.

Bean and Allen are really the reason for optimism.

well. to be honest we are as relevant as every other non-winning team. we got smoked 2 times by KC this year. We need a running game and better front 7.

yep. and KC has the worst red zone D and we sucked against it and kicked fg’s. our lack of running game and inability to stop it or TE’s was on full display today

lack of preparation and in game adjustments and going conservative v. kc.
