That was more than one thought , I think : ) all good stuff. Ford and Spain's crew contract might tell us what they think of O line down the road. No Ford hater at all. But i want to see much better pass pro from who ever is playing the position. I think Ford has growth potential still.

Bolded makes good sense I might feel the opposite, keep Lawson. Phillips want to get paid and play like 3 down guy. depends on how Bills look at the whole group and where to find the upgrades Yes HECK yes. But likely not coming free. Actually get me both and spend to the cap lol Very good post and thanks for the well thought out perspective !

I worded it poorly. Where can Beanes find us some gems for future state via the draft. Beane has raised the bar in just one off season the line up to average or better than. and now has depth. and yes there is work, but is it is no longer a crap fest. another year together will do wonders. We disagree bu not by much. Fix the RT and the whole line will look better.

My gosh, Life for some is absolutely unfair and cruel. My prayers for their souls and Mr White's healing. not sure i could recover from that. But is sure hope he does and comes the other side stronger

good point about McDs MO in the locker room. But i would not be surprised to see Bills keep the Vet they already have one more year. and let him work on the Draft pick. (later pick ( as i think they have their feature back in Devin I don't feel the need for another Yeldon. nothing against the boy : )

The O line guys. I wonder where McBeanes finds those gems. Except 1 position i think the Bills have the line in good shape. Draft O line for the future state. RT are expensive in FA. Not sure what they do there besides figure out Cody Ford I like the DE thinking. But yes he might be a Witch to pull all that off. Looking forward very much to offseason(FA) draft , refining and defining next years roster. That must be a given ? Draft another one later in the draft who compliments Devin and or trade for that as well. This is big. About what the running game will look like. Time to dial that up.

That is really pretty good stuff , from my perspective

I may have missed the part about being a number one. Vying for #1 ? perhaps ? and yes i wish there were more and better choices in FA. hedge the bet and draft for a rockstar then. Who will start or get earned reps early in the season and has a ceiling too high to reach in a year of NFL ! Perriman would improve the WR room we currently have. add to its breadth and depth. and maybe he will work his arse off and play like he did end of his season when asked to step up. He might end up being a bargain ? : )

practice makes perfect : )

we are surely screwed at attaining an excellent WR via FA. certainly not getting a #1. so Bills need the big guy who catches well to fill the roster. And draft a few ; )

due diligence and all that for sure

Gosh if only my Company would function like that. : D But i do agree. Not only is it smart business? Bills are now in that position. Nice ! Regardless of Fans clambering to dump players because Contracts and stats and The Draft Position effectiveness variable that gets played . Competition in a fair balanced climate really does bring the best from each competitor imho

good post. Hope that your Child was able to settle down and become adorable again. we all have our moments ; ) I certainly hope you are linked to pro scouting for Bills ! Not bad Pete

Both players were "middlin'" during their careers. steady. not great. steady. and one of them was well overpaid and kept on too roster too long. oh wait Thats both of em

yep. exactly. Is Clowney the guy to lead the Rookies on and off the off the field ? and become defensive Captain. Because McD wants them all to be of that mindset. No Mario Williams personal fridge types on this team and we wont get either : (

I do not like Clowney in Buffalo. not that opinion should ever set precedent : ) But i feel Bills will find a couple edge guys using more than one method. Drafting is my hope. and sprinkle in some FA. Depending on Lawson and Murphy. Eyes wides open of course. is this where Bills splash ? should be fun : ) Seems to be the consensus around here. Care to reiterate why though ?

Let me change my word to "rattled" and i am not worried he will over come and continue to improve. as he has shown from game to game and season to season.

Nor should you

Only because you are wrong. LOL : ) He absolutely became overwhelmed against Ravens and Pittsburgh's defenses .

good of you to credit Ferguson : ) Good poster here for sure ! and i love Knox. will trend upwards exponentially.

Watching games is best. Statistical review is just a reference point. McD plays a rotation as we all know. The idea is that some one stands out each down , when all of them do their job. This is where Jordan is in error with his comments. He is putting himself above the Team. Wonder how Ed feels about that?

simple as that. Hope they work out a deal though. He and Harry would make a sweet rotation. Lets get Stars contract in line and draft or udfa his replacement

I have said it multiple times. Josh is the factor. Not so much the Targets we have. Very good QBs make Ball Catchers look good. He did regress. He acted scared in a few games. Ravens he could not figure out what they were doing. And that may be Coaching. But he looked out of sorts and unable to regain his steadiness a number of games. and why they lost. He is young , i love him and he is Our future. Am very glad he and Daboll get another season together. Cuz Daboll wants to become a HC. and someone will make him that offer. By then Allen needs to be out of the nest and flying on his own. Go Bills Danke

Speaking of good posts. and copying whole post? I wanted to highlight something you wrote. Because i have seen it 1st hand and it is such a good analogy from you. My two Grandsons from one daughter 3 and 5. Spoke Lao 1st and were mixing in english. Now if we do not understand the 3 year old? The 5 year old translates in english. My oldest Grandaughter, 1.5 years is learning Spanish faster than english. She recognizes all the words , but slow to speak them. But like the boys, once they get a handle on it ? watch out. The 5 year old is reading and writing and is a fantastic story teller. You point of a delayed result is quite apt Hap. It's a fact. and i agree with you and Ayjent on most all the points you each have touched upon Merci

The pass blocking was up and down. And the Line was the focus perhaps? Protect your most precious asset. Allen was getting killed year before. McBeanes brought in about 15 linemen past season to raise that bar immediately higher. Beasley Brown Kroft and drafting Singletary were all nice upgrades. and they are ALL new to the team. And new to Allen. Josh takes another step forward this season ? and we will see those dump offs and 3 checkdown. Plus called screens. Key area to improve some very good posts in this thread btw ^
