Nice write up, you hit on several valid points that I agree with.👍

Folk keep sayin the browns this the browns that, lots of talent, but... KC is good, and really no better than they were before their O line came apart and had to rebuild it, zero sum gain in all reality, The Bills maintained their High octane offense, and brought in talent to up the O & D lines, and brought in a burner WR kick returner amongst others, so at worst it’s status quo, at best, no one is scared of KC anymore, lots of fear talk going on here....

Yup, definitely worth it,

Those would be great sarcasm gifts, where can a fella buy some of those....

Ethan, you get funnier as the draft threads go on, 😂

Always... My new on line persona

Bummer on the animal front,

Do you feel better now? 😂

Look at the crew that drafted Maybin..., that pretty much says it all,

Jack Anderson, all American boy, kinda captain America ish...

Does anyone remember his first name...

Hell, just read any of my posts, and there it is, right in front of everyone... 😁

How’s a guy to have a witty comeback when your mom is brought into the thread...

Damn shame, probably couldn’t bring himself to cheat anymore so Bill fired him...

Damn, I forgot we have absolutely no other quality players on the team, you’re so right, there’s no way the existing roaster could ever get back in the post season, should have relied on an unproven drafted rookie to put us over the top, yup, silly of me...,

Does he put milk in his tea?

Regardless of what the fans say/like, Beane did exactly what he said he was gonna do. He and Sean had a plan an they followed through on it, in a year or two when our older vets on the D & O lines are gone or near gone these quality picks will make paying Josh a whole hell of a lot easier to do, and still have quality players lined up to insure we are not a flash in the pan two year window team. Long term success is the goal.

It also tells me that our preferred O line never played together during the season because of injuries, and that they “may” all be healthy this upcoming season, and with additional emphasis/pressure applied to those in charge of the run game scheming by Beane during his season ending PC tells me that is the reason for keeping the band together, I’m not of the school that we need to be a run first team, that would be silly and a big step backwards, we just need an effective run game, and apparently Beane feels we have the horses for that in stable as it were. The D on the other hand is needing help...,

I hear what you’re getting at, but we all saw what an O line that can’t hold up looks like in 2018 first hand, the offense couldn’t execute plays consistently enough to be a threat, and to a lesser degree it happened in 2019, and defenses kicked our butts to often, even this past season we saw break downs in O & D line play and it lost games for us, the lines will always need to hold up, I can’t think of a scenario where having a bunch of 3rd stringers as your starting O or D line is a winning option. The adage holds true.

We evidently both think that the game is won and lost in the trenches then, I feel that that has always been the case,

I heard it spoken of on this board yesterday iirc

The poll did not have, “ it won’t matter” as a choice, so...,

If your lines can’t hold up, you cannot execute plays, on either offense or defense, period.

Can he sing like Michael...

The game is won and lost in the trenches, when FOs and HCs start forgetting this, the path is then only to failure. As Marv Levy said, if you listen to the fans, you will be soon be sitting with them. I really like Beane & Co calling the shots.
