LABILLBACKER

We just need 1 HR defensive front 4 player. Think about this fact. Since Beane came on board May 9th, 2017, we've had just 1 player have a 10 sack season. Leonard Floyd a 1 yr FA rental. And ironically Floyd at 33 had 8.5 sacks this year w/ SF. That would've led the Bills this season. We missed on AJE. We swung and missed on Von. It's highly doubtful we keep Greg "Tremaine" Rousseau after this season. Who knows what we have in Carter/Solomon? We haven't had an elite pass rusher since Mario Williams. McBeane had the correct strategy since 2017. Unfortunately the guy buying the groceries purchased a bunch of rotting expired food. His offensive picks have been A-. His defensive picks have been C+ and probably kept us out of multiple SB's. He's gotta identify the failure (maybe poor scouts?) and fix it fast.

Sweat had 2.5 sacks, 2 TFL's and 3 qb hits. That's a pretty impressive box score. Like I said if we strike out on a Garrett/ Cosby trade, I'm going to work up a strong Sweat. Roseman and the Front 4 were your MVP's.

Come on D....it's your time to step up and do your part...come on Brandon, nail these defensive picks...BPA

If Samuel is even relatively healthy this season, it's a wash and I'm sticking with Curtis one last year. I think we will resign Hollins to a 2/ 8M kinda contract. And I think we draft another wr somewhere in the first 3 picks. I'm giving Coleman & Kincaid one more year to prove themselves. No doubt we extend Shakir. I want no part of this Hollywood.

I'm on "Roseman Draft Bot Team BPA" from here on out...If we don't land either Garrett or Crosby, we sure as hell better get someone like Sweat or Koonce as a consolation prize. Beane must make sure his scouts are competent. And draft DL until you throw up.

Yes any successful organization has to have a balance between owner, HC, GM and players. And I'm the last one on this planet that wants to see Josh have to do most of it himself. Yes after drafting Josh (kudos to McB), we've landed some good supporting players. But not great or elite defensive players. Like the thread title says from @Logic (and I agree 100%), Josh's amazing abilities have been wasted because of lost opportunities on the DL. Wasted picks on guys like Elam, Basham, Epenesa and more. We swung and missed tragically on Von. Let's be honest with each other, Beanes track record on early picks has set us back in building a dominant playoff caliber defense around Josh. And I'm convinced until we build that dominant D, we will settle for regular season accomplishments.

Don't ever acuse me of hating this team ned...I've been supporting them long before you were even born.

I'm not paying a 4 year DE (Groot) who averages 6.2 sacks per year anything above 15M per. I don't care how good he is against the run. At least Sweat has one double digit (11) sack year. Rousseau's ceiling is 8?

We win constantly because of Josh Allen....

Exactly, don't allow them to have that distinction. Build a grown up game wrecking DL. Enough of this finese crap.

It's Garrett, Crosby, Sweat & Hendrickson in that order. I'm not even considering Mack. Keep Rousseau his last year then let him walk via Tremaine.

I have no confidence in our scouting dept. and this trickles down to Beane. Look at how poorly we did our homework on Basham, Epenesa, Elam. Even Kincaid and Rousseau have been to some degree disappointing. I'm all for good selective trades but I'm not down for extending underperforming players. If we're relying on our scouting dept., I'm nervous.

Exactly, we don't have quality man coverage dbs and our DL is nowhere near Philly.

It's Chiefs, Patriots, Eagles in that order.

I can live with that. Eventually the draft gods will not shine down on KC forever. We need either Garrett or Crosby. And we desperately need to draft DT Dawgs. And they don't have to be choir boys either. Take a page out of Roseman's book.

We gotta pray our 3 rookie defensive players (Bishop, Carter & Solomon) take a huge step their 2nd year. This April must be a defensive heavy draft emphasizing DT/CB.

I was told this week that I should never practice "hindsight". So all I got for y'all is "I guess we'll never know"?

We knew against the Ravens, Rams & Lions we had nowhere near the defense to compete in a SB. Philly's defense tonight was fearless and abusive. I've never seen rocky Mahomes get that overwhelmed. It was like Fangio knew the exact play coming. Until we lock down a dominant front 4, it's going to be more of the same.

Roseman and that Front 4 are my MVP's. It all starts at the front 4 and our over the years is mediocre.

We don't have a SB caliber defense yet....key word...yet.

Oh we're all in based on the transactions. Unfortunately we've made the wrong transactions.

I'm probably not even keeping him on the team. I just don't think there's much left there to salvage.

....always has been
