Better yet, let's get ahold of Derek Fine!

So the Bills didnt sing Kroft and draft Knox in the third? Lee is being strutted out as the primary TE that we will utilize in all situations?

Two players are the only example you have out of the multitude of other players they brought in? Moreover, your take on Fischer, a guy who failed at OL and has not proven anything at a positional switch is a better solution....

Kroft Knox Lee are the only three I see making the team. Sweeney makes the PS and the others, like Croom and Fischer will be cut.

I'd be really shocked if Sills didnt make the roster with how they paid to lock him up and an UDFA

Pulling for Zay, and let's be honest the off season could have two outlooks for Zay Take 1- They signed two guys, three if you count Williams from the CFL. They also dished out a handsome bonus to land Sills as a UDFA. They signed two tight ends if we count Fischer and his positional change, and drafted two more. They clearly want to add to the skill position core because it was lackluster. Or 2) Despite all of that, by some accounts WR wasnt even considered a high priority for the Bills brass in the draft. Therefore, there is still a very real possibility that there could be playing time up for grabs if Smokey Beasley and/or Foster start to slip up.

You always take BPA. It's not redundant if you find a way to utilize the talent. Moreover, you can never have enough quality front players, and Quinnen is vastly more of a backfield disrupter than Leonard is.

A very lazy take.

They signed upwards of 17 players, they also tried to trade for AB. Not sure the course is as narrow and definitive as just building via the draft. Moreover, not every pick will workout, if you have a chance to add a legit NFL player, you roll those dice with a QB on a rookie contract.

I'm more concerned that there was no edge rusher taken until the seventh round.

This! 110 this! Also, if they have reservations about Shaq and his injuries, what exactly is Ansah, a beacon of immaculate health? I would have no issue adding Ziggy, but we have no one signed at edge beyond this season and punted on Chase in the third for a RB. Again, love me some Singletary, but this seems short sighted.

Or, check this out, you cut him before the new league year starts, ala Texans and Kevin Johnson and you arent on the hook. So you really dont have much to lose, but thanks for making it simple for me.

Clowney and it's not even close

It's simple, we have the cap space, pick up the option and move on.

That's understandable, however, when the team turns around and signs as many players as they do along the line... two of which are tackles, then they trade up for a RT.

Bills overpaid for a two down run stuffer who isnt that good of a run stuffer.

Unless Gore shows that he really is tapped out and has nothing left in the tank, I'd be very surprised if he was let go.

The sad part about all this "Buffalo didnt take a WR, so their draft wasnt overall that great" banter is, people dont care how the WR would turn out, just as long as we took one. We could be looking back at a flop mid round WR, while say Singletary for instance has a terrific career elsewhere. However, heck, as long as we took a WR...

Ju-ju and Thomas were second rounders, get it right!!! Lol, all kidding aside, this is a very good post. That being said, its important to also point out who the QBs were for those WRs you listed.

So, if we get to cherry pick the successful ones, can we point out the amount that were passed on and never panned out?

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh just see above. Thanks for quoting my post, just to tell me to see above.

Knox is a Beane pick through and through. Will take guys with super athletic ability and super upside despite their lack of production as every other level.

Remember when people ragged on Foster, especially after he was cut... yeah, not saying Sills will be similiar, but the point is, don't close the book before it's even been written. There is a lot to like in Sills game, and while we do have a log game of above average potential at the position, no reason to believe Sills cant be a player for us.

Again, Kyle at the end of his career is different than a ninth overall pick Oliver. No one knocked Kyle Williams No one knocked his Pro Bowl selections, although the Pro Bowl is an absolute joke. No one said you can't find players all over the draft. The point was about the rotation of players. A towards the end of their career Kyle Williams isn't going to play the volume of snaps a ninth overall pick will. Nothing more, nothing less.

We all love Kyle, but let's be honest, Oliver at nine is vastly different than Kyle Williams at the end of his career.
