I think Daryl Johnson can turn into a good DE, but there’s a logjam in front of him. He’s show nice burst off the edge and he has great length to boot. May get cut, but I think he will rise over time. He’s too young to give up on and he can play STs too. I think Buffalo should keep Hughes and dump out some of these older vets like Addison. Hughes, Basham, Epenesa, Rousseau, Obada and Johnson is who I would roll with.

• Josh Allen wins Super Bowl MVP • Carlos Basham, Ed Oliver and Tre White become elite forces on this D. • Bills have a dominant defense. • Josh Allen posts similar stats as he did last year with fewer INTs. • Gabe Davis catches 65-70 catches for 1,000 yards. • Bills take a true RB by committee approach. We see solid production, but not exceptional production. • Edmunds and Milano have good not great years. Their job is made worlds easier by our improved DL.

It depends. If the player is a great fit for X team and he thinks he will thrive in that system or if especially if that team is a good team, a successful team and maybe even a playoff/contender type of team, it may make sense to take a bit less in that scenario. You’ll see your deal to fruition. What happens if you go to a dumpster fire, your team sucks, the players around you suck and you don’t perform at your highest level as a result of it? You get cut, you never see the vast majority of the money you signed on for and you lost 2-3 of your glory years playing for a crap franchise. Players that go this route have no heart. Not always, sometimes they believe that team will change, but most of the time they’re just cold hearted mercenaries with no desire to win.

I like the last bit you posted. Some may view this as a bad thing, I do not. This means our defense is cooking and will be very good this year. This is only going to help Allen in the long run. Iron sharpens iron. This will refine him as a passer and complete his game as a QB. Hopefully this turns Allen into a top 1-2 QB instead of a top 4-5 QB.

I’m all for trading him if Green Bay wants to give up a pick. I doubt he makes the team anyhow.

I couldn’t agree more on Doug Peterson, but you have to keep in mind that McDermott went 9-7 in his first year here, taking us to the playoffs with castoffs nonetheless. Only way that happens to McD is if he gets burned out, lazy and loses passion for the game. As far as a ring goes, it should happen. With a player like Josh it should happen and not just once but multiple times.

Pray for no injuries. 🙏

It’s kind of curious to me because I think our DL is one of the deepest units we have on the team.

Hey man, I got enough depressing ***** going on in my life right now. Spare me your crummy list. 😁

No, no my friend. I worded that completely wrong, sorry bout that. I think one Lombardi will probably guarantee that Beane and McD are in literally no danger of losing their jobs for the next decade. I do think a QB like Josh can get you 2-3 over the life of his career if this team is built the right way and we draft well. I do think a dynasty is entirely possible though. I worded that wrong my friend, sorry bout that.

I’ve always liked Mahomes. I actually wanted the Bills to draft him. He reminded me so much of Brett Favre coming out of college. When we traded back for Tre, I was disappointed, but little did I know that we would end up with not only an All Pro corner, but likely a future All Pro QB in Allen. I give Beane props for trading up with the veracity he did to get Josh Allen. It took balls to do what he did, very aggressive. All in all, I think Josh will be a better QB than Mahomes if he stays hungry and works hard. There’s no reason we shouldn’t be able to squeeze a few Super Bowls out of Josh if this team is managed the right way. Ultimately Beane’s job is very safe for now, he has a long leash, but he must deliver on a few Lombardis in my mind over the next 3-5 years because with Josh Allen, there is no excuse for us not to get one.

I expect another lockdown.

You’re not going to hit a home run every time but I realize why big plays excite people. I’d argue that plays within that 10, 20, 30 yard range are more important and I think hitting on those plays will make our offense more consistent. If you miss on a deep ball, all of a sudden you only have two downs to move the sticks and defenses can tee off on you. Josh has the ability to rifle the ball in there up to about 40 yards out. Very little arch on the ball but it’s a speeding bullet and he drop it in on a rope. He does seem to struggle however with getting good arch and the timing down on plays beyond that yard range.

I beat the drum for Boogie all offseason, yet I still don’t think fans know what they’re getting. Give it a year or two, he’ll be the best player on our defense.

Honestly? It wouldn’t surprise me if we added another TE sometime before the season. Bug is likely just a camp body. Cool name though but I think we’re hoping a serviceable TE shakes free.

I think between Wallace, Jackson, Wildgoose, Hamlin and Griffin, Buffalo will see a player or two step up in our secondary. We must keep in mind that DB is McD’s specialty. Why spend a first on one when McD can get production out of guys drafted later in the draft?

QB: Allen, Trubisky HB: Singletary, Moss, Breida, Williams WR: Diggs, Davis, Beasley, Sanders, McKenzie, Hodgins TE: Knox, Hollister, Sweeney, (FA acquisition) OL: Dawkins, Williams, Morse, Feliciano, Ford, Brown, Doyle, Bates, Boettger DL: Basham, Oliver, Hughes, Rousseau, Obada, Zimmer, Lotulelei, Phillips, Epenesa, Johnson, Butler LB: Edmunds, Milano, Matakevich, Klein, Dodson DB: White, Wallace, Hyde, Poyer, Neal, Jackson, Johnson, Wildgoose, Hamlin, Griffin K: Tyler Bass P: Haack

Bates belongs at C/G, not T. He has huge upside though.

One could argue that RB is the Achilles heel of our offense depending on how you feel about Knox and the TE position. Neither Singletary nor Moss are guys I’d pay big money to. Sure, they’re serviceable, adequate and decent but they’re not elite talents. I do like Singletary’s running style though and Moss runs hard but Buffalo could benefit from upgrading the RB position.

He’ll probably be ranked around 15th overall and his accuracy will be like 77.

Makes sense, but do keep in mind that Hollister saw a lot of snaps at FB in Seattle. Which is why his Y/R is as low as it is.

Just more evidence to support the fact that the Jets are a dysfunctional franchise. I mean, with the way the CBA is set up, it’s established already as far as how much each player will get paid, so the Jets are digging their heels in over petty nuances. Meanwhile Wilson is missing out on much needed snaps with the first string offense. I dislike the Jets, not just because I’m a Bills fan but because that organization is filled with terrible people, starting with their owner Woody Johnson.

Michael Jordan did this as well with the Hornets and he made lots of beans and biscuits in doing so.

If we put Rodgers in New England and Brady in Green Bay, do you think that would have changed anything?

Ok I just nursed my first cup of coffee, so I’m sorry if this doesn’t make much sense, but then again my posts hardly ever make sense so you may not spot the difference. ☕️☕️ Chicken or egg? Tell me how Brady did without Mike Evans, Gronk and Chris Godwin in his final year with the Patriots? Sure, QB is the most important position in football, sure a great QB will make do with average receivers, but it takes good to great WRs even for a QB as talented as Brady to win the Super Bowl and to go deep in the playoffs. Same goes for Josh, whom I feel can get us multiple Super Bowl titles, but without a good team around him, he likely wouldn’t even get one. Every team needs playmakers/elite players outside of the QB position to be successful, but in the salary cap era you must choose who you pay, who your star players are and who you build around and who you let go. Beane must determine who his untouchable players are, which will likely be players like Allen, Diggs and TreDavious White. Overpaying for good players can hamstring this franchise and can prohibit us from winning a Super Bowl and how deep we go in the playoffs. How many people do we pay top dollar to? How many meat and potatoes players do we sign to reasonable deals? This is the balance Beane must strike.
