    I think this is more the million dollar question. I have posted on this previously, below is the allocation of draft capitol by position. It's only looking at how teams spent what they had, not how much they had. I'm summing the total point value of every pick and looking at a % of how those point values were spent at each position. 

     

    Buffalo ranks 7th in defensive spend since 2018. We have had top 10 defenses in years past. We even had top 3 defenses in years past. It just doesn't translate when it matters most. Which speaks to your call out of philosophical changes. It is entirely possible Beane and McDermott could be highly effective leaders and that is most likely the case, but is our approach married to the wrong concepts, specifically on defense? Then if so, how likely is that to fundamentally change? More clarity should come this season I would think and that is part of what makes this year very exciting.

    How do I get Beane and McDermott to read this?!

    Please no...

     

    I ask all of you to think "what would an upgrade at safety really accomplish in McDermott's D?" Wouldn't we all say prime Micah Hyde & Jordan Poyer were a big upgrade over what we have now? And what did that look like come playoff time?

     

    Just remember, it's still McDermott's D. The point is that we could get 2 x studs back there, and the end result doesn't change the way he calls a game. I'm not saying it's ENTIRELY pointless, it's just the move least likely to help this team take a big step forward. I don't think having 2 great safeties back there will turn the tides against the Chiefs.

     

    I'd rather double down on our biggest strength - Josh Allen. The side of the ball most likely to see changes year-to-year is offense, so give Joe Brady more tools to help Josh succeed. McDermott & Beane are good at finding defensive talent in the later rounds anyway.

    this times a million

    I’m sure he feels like crap. Two seasons in a row, the offense has the ball in their hands at the end to tie or lead, and gets nothing. 

     

    Two end of game drives vs KC for all the marbles, Zero points.  You aren’t going to the SB with that.

    unless you have a defense like the ravens or chiefs

    This is wayyyy …. overstated. I think there is room for a reasonable second contract.  However, to your point his skill set is limited and he is not good at pass pro. I just don’t see him getting a huge contract given the short half life of RB’s in the NFL.

    Some team will overpay to the point where the Bills will not match. The cap is going up and struggling teams typically overpay for skill position players. The Bills are smart and will continue to draft RBs (see Ray Davis). They will not sign a RB to a second year contract of any significant value with Josh Allen on the books.

    Diggs was voted a team captain.. never said one bad thing about the City of Buffalo or the organization

     

    Came to practice every day and played his butt off for 4 years

     

    The media drummed up his diva status and helped drive him out of town... There's been nothing but smear pieces about him for the last 2 years

     

    The national media and pundits drove him out of Buffalo by highlighting this narrative day in and day out for 2 years

     

    He certainly never went to the podium and said I want to leave or anything bad about Buffalo.. never not once 

     

    What he was was hyper competitive

    What’s your take on his last tweet? Kinda curious. (Before leaving Buffalo)
