Shady isn't going Anywhere. Otherwise it's all possible though I feel Teller is unlikely and I like Croom but he's going to have to make a jump to get on the 53

Well even as a very optimistic fan , I knew deep down last year would be rough. We lead the league in dead cap by like 30 mil compared to the next team but we got alot of young guys playing time. The vision was always that we'd start really being a force in the upcoming season and we're built for long term success because these moves.

That 4th was involved in moving up to nab Dawson Knox. The 5th he got for McCarron was used to get Ford. He got a 2nd for Sammy Watkins , 3rd for Darby which basically got us Allen and Edmunds. Beane is THE MAN!!

I think this is a 10 win team. I really do. Out of 11 offensive position , I feel like we upgraded all 11. Cause returning starters will all benefit from the upgrades around them. Just can't envision this offense not improved, by how much depends on Allen of course. Then you got an elite defense with 10/11 returning starters and a potential elite addition at DT. We added solid depth in the secondary and have a legit 9 man DL rotation and a vastly improved Edmunds, they could definitely be the # 1 defense. And added two ST demons. Roberts and Periose (butchered his name) from Mia. Yeah 10 wins.

Crazy he had Cody Ford going 14th.

I've always been a proud, optimistic out of state Bills fan but they have handled his unfortunate passing about as first class and beautifully as they could have via social media. I'm a little bit prouder today to love the Buffalo Bills. RIP Pancho , your spirit was an inspiration to the world .

I agree.

Sheesh, I was truly hoping he could fight this. R.i.p to a man that looked to have a huge heart. Any family or friends on here , I truly give my condolences to you. I know for a fact where he will be in spirit on Sundays from Sept -Jan.

Same. The defense is likely at Least top 5 , if not number 1 . ST was addressed and should improve significantly. Periose (former ST ace from Mia) and Roberts for example are both ST aces. Ya, it all comes down to Allens progression , which I feel will be significant.

Just a couple examples but even after our large FA haul , not many ppl beyond the fan base were taking this team serious. Especially since the draft , it seems some national reporters have done some research about this team , including recognizing McBeane as a potential great Hc/Gm combo. I don't mind being under the radar but glad that they're slowly getting the respect they deserve. It's playoffs or bust for me. I think Allen is that good and the OL specifically will go such a long way in this team being successful

Very underrated signing. Thinking Fisher might be in trouble but we got a great complement to Kroft , Knox , Croom etc . Putting the finishing touches on that offense! A Lee Smith type TE is very important to Dabol and we get a premiere blocking TE in the game. Great work!! His impact won't show on the stat sheet but he'll be valued in this scheme. Love the signing

Even without McCoy , McD used 4 DT fronts last year , on 4th and 1 or less and Goal line situations. I do believe Oliver offers quite a bit of flexibility along the line

Kids going to be special

Same here. Was 22, first time I ever touched an opiate. One of my best friends would offer percs and xanax and I was always to scared! 6 months after my prescription ran out for my wisdom teeth , I had an oxycodone (10 mg Percocet) connection and that started my slippery slope. My mother always says she wishes I never got my wisdom teeth pulled

I've seen documentaries on Ohio's epidemic . It's really the whole country. I feel it is at a point where major reform should be coming from the Government. It's the leading cause of death for ppl I believe. Numbers are just astonishing

Eh. They have no edge rushers, i do like Polite, their 3rd rd pick , and also behind Trumaine Johnson at CB, who was underwhelming last year, they don't have much. I see them as a middle of the pack defense personally.

Good point, I recently saw a Brian Dawkins little documentary and McD was coaching the secondary, I'm certain he gained an enormous amount of knowledge and perspective on the game from Reid but ya he's a completely different coach , different energy, different approach to the game. McD is a natural, I've said this so many times, we struck gold with him and Beane as well

Appreciate it! It even made me pursue a career in helping those fight this deadly disease. Right now it's truly an epidemic where i'm at,North Jersey , it's unreal how young and how hard these kids are going. I guess we gotta keep fighting but the Gov't also has to step in and make some big changes because it's not normal for 20 somethings to be dropping like flies.

I thin play action is going to be a huge part of the offense, which means we need an effective running attack. He does have 2 world class rb behind him and plenty of depth behind shady and Gore. I think the upgraded OL is going to have a positive impact on every facet of our offense.

I have been there and couldn't imagine being even a minor public figure where everybody knew of how much i F'd up. I'm now 3 years sober from xanax and opiates. I still drink but only socially and attend aa, na meetings regularly . It's a lifetime disease, and all he can do is a 1 day at a time. I'm rooting for Pike big time. I know all too well the destruction , depression , isolation and negative results this disease brings. Sending good vibes his way Unfortunately , you may be right. It's funny because rock bottom came to me when i was "doing good" . I was working, drug free and looked like I was cured . But i was still dabbling and realized it wasn't just the drugs, it was the whole lifestyle i was addicted too. The fast life, but I hit an emotional rock bottom and that's when i finally found the change i was looking for. If he can truly find that piece of mind, the strength it takes to be good at football will be nothing compared to fighting addiction.

Hurricane fans are absolutely raving about this kid on twitter. They're convinced we got the steal of the draft, which led me to do some more digging and this kid can PLAY, wow. I think he can come in and challenge Bush immediately for starting in the Big Nickel package McD likes to run.

yea, this was my first thought.. But i will say , probably for the first time as a die hard fan of this team , i completely trust and will be optimistic towards any moves made by this front office.

on paper this looks like a talented , deep team.. very excited

Josh Allen makes a lot of guys expendable that still get PAID. Ask Anthony Barr and Kiko Alonso

absolutely. his dead cap goes from 13 mil this season to 5 mil next. Still a major blow to that defense
