DC Grid Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 First he resigns Stevie for relatively cheap...you might even say dirt cheap given what some bum WRs got this year. Next he gets THE free agent prize at DE. Then he gets another solid pass rushing DE in his prime (Anderson)...and keeps the guy from returning to New England. And on top of all that he does a pretty decent job of resigning some sinificant role players. If Buddy et al put together another stellar draft this could be the best offseason the Buffalo Bills have ever had.

playman Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 if it all results in a playoff-berth than absolutely
DaveinElma Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Winning the offseason isn't worth much from September to February. Sincerely, Vinny Cerrato & Howie Roseman So how did Lee Evans do this year in Baltimore?
Hapless Bills Fan Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 First he resigns Stevie for relatively cheap...you might even say dirt cheap given what some bum WRs got this year.

If Buddy et al put together another stellar draft this could be the best offseason the Buffalo Bills have ever had. My opinion of him is rising, but let's see the draft class and the team on the field
daytonajay Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 If he pulls off another draft like last year, we can say he has done a solid job
PromoTheRobot Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Make the playoffs and he's a candidate. Win a playoff game and he's a lock. PTR
Malazan Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 I like what Buddy has done and is doing, but you can't win it until the season.

The Cincinnati Kid Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 I think he has a solid lead with Elway close behind...
Rico Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 I think he has a solid lead with Elway close behind... I think he is FAR ahead of Elway right now for best off-season. Now let's see what he does in the draft.
The Cincinnati Kid Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Elway has done a lot of good for Denver...he got Peyton and sent Tebow packing...Both excellent moves for that franchise.
sllib olaffub Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Buddy has shown some skill this offseason at dealing with Free Agency - something I was very worried about after last season. Turns out he was just waiting for the right players, and for the right maturity level of the Bills. Now he is putting it all together - and I agree, he should be recognized thus far as one of the best acting GM's. And, I believe the draft is his real talent. Our team has gotten much younger, and much BIGGER since his arrival. Even our backups - on both lines - are big, capable guys who can play! Another awesome thing - Doug Whaley. He's learning from Nix, and no doubt has a considerable hand in all this. He is going to bring new vitality to the organization when his time comes, and he'll be able to come in and continue with what has been started. This defense - with the right luck, maybe another LB'er or playmaking CB - could be really special!
Dorkington Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 What's our record? If we produce on the field, he'll be rewarded.
Rico Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Elway has done a lot of good for Denver...he got Peyton and sent Tebow packing...Both excellent moves for that franchise. Got rid of a money QB for a big game chump. I'm not impressed.
Chas56 Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Break down the off-season into two parts: free agency and the draft. So far we are still in the free agency part; who even knows if Buddy is finished with this part. But I would have to give him a solid A grade. If he does even a B grade draft, the Bills will have a pretty solid off-season to build on. I am pretty sure now that the Bills will go OT in Round 1. I believe they will get a very good player at that spot regardless of the position. So I really think that this will be a very good off-season for the Bills, and we will have Buddy & Co. to thank for that.
KRT88 Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Really? I'm all about winning in the off season. Call me with your votes if were 10-4 with 2 games to go!
