Yes and more yes... it should have happened years and years ago, but every year Beane blunders the top few rounds of the draft per usual, especially at the wide receiver position. Josh and the Bills should have had multiple vertical threats with speed that can separate and catch the ball years ago. Beyond Diggs, which wasn't even a draft pick, just a trade (and Shakir who's been decent), it's been a collection of low priced misfits or has beens every year in free agency and barely anything wide receiver related in the draft, yet he always think that will be enough. It hasn't and it won't be until he invests in that position appropriately. He had multiple opportunities last year as well in a great wide receiver draft even after the Coleman pick!

Yes, it's been a big need every year since Beane came here, but he's yet to address it fully or get a star receiver with speed that can separate, with the exception of trading for Diggs. Josh has one of the best arms in the league, but are pass plays are 5 yards down the field at most because none of our receivers apparently can get open beyond the five yards. I'm not even sure that Brady knows how to use receivers properly to be honest on this team.

Since he got here... His drafting especially in the first couple rounds has been pathetic, the only wide receiver he's drafted that's been decent has been shakir. And how much draft Capital has been wasted on the defensive line that never gets it done when needed.

This is another learning experience I'm sure per McDummy, we will learn from this ...🙄 apparently he still hasn't learned anything & figured it out after 8 years in big games. Sick of KC and if I have to see Taylor Swift one more time jump up and down as they Pan the camera to her every single play with the phoniness, I'll puke! Enough, Buffalo deserves better!!!

The same predictable ending per usual; so many bad calls and mistakes and decisions in this game. I'm tired of McDermott as well as Beane's drafting. What an embarrassment, we have the worst luck because of the idiot coaching staff and front office, including the players in big games, pathetic! This franchise is cursed, especially in the biggest moments!

Yes the defense has been a problem all year long as well and they never seem to show up when they absolutely have to, especially on 3rd down this year.

Brady's play calling has been mediocre at best, not just this whole game, but most of the season, very predictable. Yes, they've run the ball well which is great but he certainly hasn't been creative in any way and for god sakes have some plays (not just a few per game) where they pass it down field more than 5 yards. So many poor decisions and play calls in this game.

Yes, meaning acquiring him in the offseason and not being able to figure out even in a small way how to use him this year.

What a waste of a pic, a waste of more cap space and it's especially puzzling that we couldn't possibly find even a small way to get him involved just a little bit consistently during every game, especially considering the collection of misfit receivers we have currently. Beane's track record with receivers has been pitiful, whether it be in free agency or picking them in the draft, which for 7 years he rarely has done unfortunately unless they're in the late rounds. Diggs, being the exception... but he was already a proven commodity so it wasn't like Beane was betting on his own instincts and ability to rate talent on whether a receiver would be good or not like in the draft (that has not really happened, except with Shakir who has been pretty decent and consistent last year and so far this year). However, the Amari Cooper trade looks pretty decent on the surface, especially from a cap standpoint. Although, I'm not too crazy about giving away a third round pick, yet really with the swap of a seventh in 26 for a sixth in 25, not too shabby when you factor in the contract cost this year, which is basically free. Regarding the higher draft pick than what he was traded for previously was mainly because of the miniscule cap hit that the other team would inherit, i.e., us in this case (that's a big plus and he should help open up and make the whole receiving core better). I was on record of preferring and obtaining him rather than Davante. Just last year, Cooper continued to be among the league's top WRs with a career-high 1,250 yards, including a 265-yard, two-touchdown performance against the Texans on Dec. 24th. Plus, look at that clip of him catching it with one hand out of bounds when Allen threw a bomb and threw it away on the sidelines, that's pretty comical. They have some chemistry already...lol!

McDermott and this coaching staff are the most incompetent I've seen in a while. How absurd, that should not happen, ever! WTF!

Please Bass has to go! Unfortunately, he's one of many problems and it's been obvious for a while, yet they continue to not bring in a kicker, get one prior to the season or draft one, thank God we at least scored a touchdown. He's obviously going to cost us some games. Another glaring obvious replacement yet no replacement before we got stuck with him for the season.

And even though I think it would be bad value from a cap standpoint and what we'd have to give up for Davante Adams, if we only gave up maybe a third rounder, I guess I would be more inclined to be semi okay with it depending on what the cap implications were once we adjusted his contract and how many more years we ended up being attached to him, he's already 32 years old. We have enough dead cap and bad contracts already. I don't trust Beane with negotiating any type of contracts like this, especially if they also include trading draft capital. We are usually on the losing end of those types of trades where we're in a bind and in a situation that should have been solved a long time ago, but now he's pressured to do something because of the obvious lack of addressing these issues for years and he gives up too much or pays too much... or both! Remember all the big name receivers in free agency that apparently everyone wanted like OBJ who the Bill's would have overpaid for like other contracts Beane has negotiated, OBJ has done nothing (a name and nothing more, passed his prime with way too many injuries historically)! Same with DeAndre Hopkins who has done better, but nothing to write home about and he would have been extremely expensive. Looking back obviously, if we did obtained either of those guys, it would have probably done very little for us in moving the needle, yet the Bill's would have been stuck with more bad contracts on older players for a few more years. Not really what we need, we need to draft young fast wide receivers and we should have been doing that for the last 7 years as I've said ad nauseam given the talent that Josh possesses with the time he's here. Beane has criminally under invested in weapons for him unfortunately. I would prefer to use the two 2nd rounders in draft capital to take a shot at a couple young fast wide receivers or bundling one or two to move up in the first round to get in a better position to draft someone that has a higher probability of succeeding short & long term (although there are no sure bets for certain in any round but the higher the round, the higher the probability of success typically) where we know we have that wide receiver or receivers on a low cap number for quite a few years and someone who's much younger.

Home run if he catches it, but Diggs was wide open about 12 yards out in the middle of the field for an automatic first down and then we get three more downs where we weren't that far from the end zone after that play. Taking the higher probability easy first down would have made it much more realistic in possibly scoring rather than going for a more difficult pass to complete and a higher chance of it going incomplete. DB's were blanking a lot of the wide receivers in the end zone and of course the opportunity for somebody to get in the backfield and disrupt Josh was more probable, which is exactly what happened as he held onto the ball too long rather than taking an easy first down and getting the ball out of his hands quicker with Diggs wide open. Once he had that lay up first down, now he has three to four more downs and he can take a couple shots in the end zone without being one and done... he would have had three or four more tries if needed!!! Much smarter decision making by doing just that and a much higher probability of winning the damn game, which is what we wanted to do obviously, but that's not what Josh did unfortunately and what transpired sadly. The same ending per usual, just a different year whether it's the Chiefs or the Bengals... stupid decision making at the end of the the most important games during the playoffs that really count, which has been a perpetual theme of McDermott's teams and heartbreaking as a long time fan!

And for the record, I'm at the top of the mountain screaming for premier wide receivers every year in the draft or even in a trade if it makes sense and he's not over the hill or has a huge attitude problem. I just don't think Davante Adams based on what we'd have to give up for him, how old he is and his cap numbers even if we restructured it, would make the best sense at this point in the season. Would he make us better on offense, absolutely! Could it end up being the missing piece and all that we would need, probably not.

We are paying $30 plus million for Diggs, yet we don't have the player to play, we just signed Samuels to a 3 year deal of $30 million ($15 guaranteed) and we are now going to trade him away after ONE YEAR as well because the genius coaching staff couldn't figure out how to use him properly... AND also lose a 2nd round pick for a 32 year old injuried wide receiver who's not that fast either! We're paying $120 million for defensive end that rarely plays year after year. How many incompetent moves is Beane going to make by being wrong with the players he already obtained or traded for or let go, over paying for them and then getting rid of the player for nothing that moves the needle... or eating the entire horrible contract??? I mean we just extended Diggs and paid him more money and then got rid of him shortly afterwards and have to eat that whole contract within a year, how idiotic can you be and then there's the Von Miller debacle. Eventually you kind of question the decision making here because over the years a lot of things are starting to add up that don't make a whole heck of a lot of prudent sense and you start to question his ability and competence (including McDermott). And Josh has to start learning and playing better as well, he's making the same stupid decisions often times that he's made every year. You would think at this point, he would be a little bit more savvy with quite a bit of experience in the league at this stage and know when to take the first down versus the home run play, take the easier open play that may result in less yards but continues to move us forward or maybe take the check down and eventually get us three additional downs rather than going for the home run hit. For example, like he did in the Kansas City playoff game when Diggs was completely wide open for the first down in the middle (and we would have had three more Downs and tries for a touchdown), yet he goes for the highly difficult home run throw in the end zone for a touchdown and if you don't hit on that one play, at that point the game, it's over & we lose. He had much better odds of winning the game if he would have took the easier and higher probability play for the first down. One shot or go home versus three more tries and probably win!
