That works for keeping the Bills a double digit win team. The only thing it doesn't do is get those playmakers you need to win a Super Bowl

While luck does play a part, you also need elite playmakers to win as well. As good as Beane is at finding good players to fill holes in Free Agency and McDermott is at getting the most out of his players. The one are they haven't done as good as Super Bowl winning teams at is finding elite playmakers in the draft. They find good to great starters with amazing culture but that only gets you so far.

All the more reason to add some elite talent.

While it does happen that great teams don't win a Super Bowl going all in. At the same time what the Bills are doing hasn't got them there either. While it keeps them a top team every season, they have only been to 2 AFC championship games in that time. All I'm saying is try something different for a change. If not overspending in free agency, why not try to move up and draft a blue chip player.

While QB is important, he can't do it all alone. Look at the Eagles. They had a great QB, but also had an elite RB, an elite WR. On defense they had a dominant DT and top CB.

To win a Super Bowl you need more than one impact player.

That's fine. They may have a bit of a down year but it's worth it for a Super Bowl win

I don't have an issue with them building a team this way. It's good for consistency and keeps them competitive. My biggest problem is the ability to find elite playmakers in the draft. Outside of Josh, they really haven't found their Chris Jones or Kelce or Barkley. It's been a lot of really good team players.

Beane's very good at finding starters in the draft. Where he fails is finding elite or impact players.

I will give him credit in keeping the Bills a top team year in and year out. It's much better than the drought era. I still want just one season where they overspend on free agency.

I get it most of you are good with the status quo.

I don't care about other teams. The Bills made moves to free up cap space and for what? None of them move the needle.

We don't know. There is a possibility that everyone they offered said no.

What about being aggressive in free agency and get some high end talent to get to a Super Bowl and maybe win one.

Meh. He's a JAG, just like most of what they have signed so far. Where's the impact players?

What are the odds they draft a player that will make an impact?

Or how about spend some money in free agency like other teams did.

I agree but other than Hendrickson, a lot of high end talent has been signed.

Maybe so but they were reluctant to spend that kind of money on free agents today. You think they will not only spend that money but also picks in the draft?

I would too. Something tells me it's unlikely to happen. It's a similar contract as DK and they passed on that.

How often to mid tier guys get to that level? Regardless I would have rather this team pay for some elite talent for once.

That's not saying much. I'm sorry but this team needs impact players not mid tier guys like they signed today. That's not saying much. I'm sorry but this team needs impact players not mid tier guys like they signed today.

None that really move the needle.

He got $8.4 million for 2 years with a possibility of $10 million

Every one is too expensive for this regime.
