Just picture it. It’s the day after the Super Bowl in 2025. The Bills haven’t won one yet, but we have more cap space than Dallas and KC. Brandon Beane holds a press conference with a “Mission Accomplished” banner streaming behind him. Bills fans across the nation weep with joy.

Does not compute. no one is saying the season is over. That’s a complete strawman. Folks just want stars to get us over the hump. If we rolled with Boogie and co, I would still expect us to be a playoff team. I just would rather win a super bowl.

I want to upgrade our pass rush. If we sign Bobby Wagner and trade Edmunds for Hunter, im cool with that. If we sign Chandler Jones im cool with that. If we are waiting for Boogie and AJ to develop into star caliber players, I am NOT cool with that.

Thank you. It is relatively easy to throw around money to mid tier FA’s to build an okay unit. It is much harder to hit home runs. Every team in the NFL is trying to get better. We cannot continue to just try to stand pat. That’s how you end up a perennial bridesmaid. Correct. I think we should be trying to get better at DB, HB, OL, EDGE, IDL, LB. sure you can’t get better EVERYWHERE, but to say having better players wouldn’t change the result of a game is flat out wrong.

Restructure. Chandler Jones is going to go for $18M AAV (maybe $20M with multiple suitors), how are we going to pay for that?

Sure you can. One extra sack and maybe it doesn't come down to 13 seconds.

or trade for Khalil Mack if I wasn't prepared to be outbid.

So do you think we need a Chandler Jones type upgrade or no? I’m kinda confused. If we pursue Chandler Jones, and don’t get him, is it then okay to be mad we didn’t get Khalil Mack?

We’d only sign someone as old and as slow as Joe Haden if he played DE.

The concern is that Jones signs elsewhere, and we get the classic report, “The Bills were also in on Jones but he’s going to X,Y,Z.” That will make me scream.

Is your argument that our DL is really good then?

“Telling it like it is” is hard to do when you don’t even know how “it is.” Tell me more about their lack of playoffs lmao. next you’re gonna complain about Tony Romo’s play this year.

You trash them without even knowing anything about them which is way funnier tbh. Just an uninformed hater.

They made the playoffs this season lmao.

How many rosters are better than Dallas'?

So let’s go win one instead of worrying about 7.

You’re too busy trying to be the next Pats dynasty for 20 years. You have to win one before you can win 7.

Lol oh you need to win multiple Super Bowls now huh. Brady had won 3 Superbowls after 4 years as a starter and that’s the benchmark we are gonna use for Allen and Beane? Big talk from a franchise with zero SB wins ever lmao.

The Rams just won a Super Bowl by making a couple big trades. The off-season is not over, but yes, running it back by signing low impact depth players the way this current roster is constructed is the wrong move. It’s significantly the wrong move. Beane got the Josh Allen pick right and did a great job trading for Diggs. Obviously the QB is the most important position and covers up a ton of bad. But it doesn’t make him one of the best GM’s in football.

Can’t believe the Rams gave up so much for Matt Stafford! Let Goff develop!

Lorenzo Alexander had one super productive year as a pass rusher and never achieved the same success again. Should we still wait for Cody Ford to develop or should we try to get better at guard? Our Super Bowl window cannot and should not wait for these kids to develop over the course of 4 years. That’s GMing malpractice

Counterpoint, Boogie and AJ suck and shouldn’t hold us back from getting better.

Someone realizes that the key to beating good QB’s is to pressure and sack the crap out of them. Unfortunately, that someone is not Beane.

The next person Edmunds hits hard will be his first.
