Chaos

Did you read the write on draft buzz. Not aligned with your conclusions at all.

I am not disputing this, but other than Beane bitching about Josh taking too many risks, can you link to any actual examples. None jump to my old mind.

Edmunds was once an athletic freak project (except not as big , fast or strong as Beal). Did you have pacheco identifed as a 7th rounder last year to be a difference maker for the Super Bowl winner.

Without Allen, Diggs doesn't matter in the decision making for Beane.

https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/DJ-Johnson-TE-Oregon Projected 7th round prospect. Negative seems to be he is 24 years old. HEIGHT: 6-4 (89%*) WEIGHT: 260 (98%*) HANDS: 9 (21%*) ARM: 33 4/8 (74%*) SPAN: 80 (92%*) FORTY: 4.49 (C) (95%*) SHUTTLE: 4.51 (P) (9%*) 10 YARD SPLIT: 1.59 (C) (70%*) DJ Johnson from Burbank High School was rated a 4-star recruit by ESPN and handed a 4-star grade by 247 Sports. After high school, Johnson joined Oregon after being heavily recruited. Elite athletic skills -- Made Bruce Feldman's Freaks List at number 4. He wrote "Johnson had a dominant showing in the Ducks’ spring game, making five TFLs and four sacks. Those numbers are as jaw-dropping as the results the 6-4, 275-pounder has produced in the Oregon training program, posting a blazing 22.88 mph on the GPS to go with a 455-pound bench and 655-pound sumo deadlift." Tougher between the tackles than many expect. Fluid and quick drop into zone, covers enough ground to be Tampa-2 "MIKE" and knows where the markers are. He has the strong core and powerful hands to shed blockers, and he shows excellent instincts with the ability to quickly locate the ball.

Except for Brandon's Beane's entitlement to rest on the laurels of the brilliant Josh Allen pick forever apparently.

Trade all of our top picks for a 1,2&3 next year plus some later round picks this year. We are running it back with the old timers this season, Morse, Miller, Hyde, Poyer, and have all of last years draft picks who didn't get to play last year. Plug them in, sit this years later round picks behind them, and be prepared for next seasons inevitible reload in the draft:

It seems like it is defined to create a giant dilemma for Bill's fans. BPA at the least needed position. Ugh. I would hope to be able to trade down a couple of spots and take which ever OT is left. I would avoid Downs because of his size.

pff MOCK draft simulator regularly presents this at the default settings Who do you pick?

But if BPA is a QB, you do agree they should draft another position?

so less than teams of people who watch every game and sell their results for megabucks to NFL teams and the public. No disrespect, but until you can monetize your opinions with the NFL, there is no reason for anyone else to think they are better or more accurate. Just different.

We will win the east. However even if we go 17-0, we won't know if any improvements made matter until the divisional round of the playoffs. 17-0 would be a blast, but it will take patience to get to the real answer.

I cheated with a trade, but I liked this one:

He is going to be a free agent. If he has a good year on the Bills another team can offer him the same contract. Oliver is only worth his current salary. If he was released outright, no one is likely signing him for more than $10mm this season. So teams aren't going to give up compensation for the same luxury.

If Harty turns out to be the next Tyreke Hill in hiding, then Beane will be the executive of the year. If he performs at his historical production levels, we need a new GM. Truth probably lies somewhere in between.

You have a fair point. If we can wizard him him at the vet min of $1,165,000 he might be worthwhile.

He was the Cowboys worst run blocking linemen. Do we get any of the good run blockers?

I don't like continuity for continuitys sake. And I am not a big Singletary fan. And they points you make about the comp pick seem valid. Hoever, I felt like going into the 2022 season if you polled Bills fans on what team had the best team chemistry in the NFL, the Bills would have been a runaway number 1 pick. That seems like it is changed now. I don't think the Bills have any intention of resigning Singletary, but I wonder if replacing him with a similar JAG does more or less for team chemistry (as unmeasurable as that is).

Do we get the Cowboys 2022 Oline for these short yardage rushing situations?

What is your source of information for this? What does fully healthy mean? Does that mean he will play at his 2020 level of play? Or his late 2022 level of play?

How many games do you watch a year. If you watch four games a week, and focus on nothing but oline play, that means you will have seen 25% of plays. If you watch only Bills games, you see a small fraction of the games overweighted with 6 of them being AFC east opponents. None of our eye tests really matter, other than too ourselves.

Oliver barely produces at the 10 mm salary cap level. He has no meaningful value in a trade. He is also not a big liability. He is neutral. His inclusion in a trade is simply to shift salary cap, allowing other parts of a trade to be made.

I would consider cutting Morse and save 6 million on the cap. He just is not a meaningful part of the future. But if you are holding on to Morse, you should be all in on Seumalo because both of those guys are on well on the back nines of their careers, and if you are keeping Morse the time is now. The current regime seems to be praying that Spencer Brown goes from turnstile to at least average NFL linemen. Holding on to Morse and praying Spencer Brown gets better, and signing McGoven seem more patchwork than strategic. It might work. I certainly want it to work. However, I think in the long run, the Bills are better off using these season to go younger on the oline, with the hopes of them being together for four or five seasons before free agency breaks them up. (This assumes the ability to draft good olinemen). I think it is plausible to Maneuver to end up with Dawand Jones and Steve Avila, and even going nuts and adding Joe Tipman to those two. Spencer Brown can be in on this competition. McGovern is young enough and affordable enough to do this. I would rather role with Gabe Davis at WR2 then use the draft capital to improve that spot, with the current oline in place. Defense needs to figure out how to get it done with what they have.

That was my point that it depends how much they were willing to accomodate Henry. Hence "it would be stretch" and "its a narrow road". Not sure how to help you understand further.
