They sit 14th overall and 7th in the AFC, three spots behind the Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos for the final playoff position in the AFC.

"Almost good enough" is our wheelhouse! We know it very well
Buffalo_Stampede Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 (edited) 14 sounds about right, but it's hard to take the rankings serious when they have the Eagles listed at 5. Eagles have a good roster. Not a lot of weaknesses there. The thing is though having elite talent in the right places. Edited June 7, 2016 by TheTruthHurts
CommonCents Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 They have a good roster. Not a lot of weaknesses there. Ehh I think they are lacking at skill positions. WR's, CB's, and QB are all question marks. I like their D front but that's not pushing top 5 just look at some of the teams behind them and compare skill positions.
Dorkington Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 Minimal offseason changes, and we finished 8-8 last year? Unsurprising to be in the middle of the pack.

I like their D front but that's not pushing top 5 just look at some of the teams behind them and compare skill positions. WR and CB yeah, QB is decent with Bradford. Its mostly based on their individual grades. Just because the overall roster is good doesn't make you a good team. I find it interesting the Bills ranking has improved from last year.

machine gun kelly Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 I just clicked on all of these links and don't see a list. That's fine. 14th sounds fair. If our defense gets the scheme, TT develops as we hope or expect, and we have manageable injuries, we'll contend. A lot of if's.

Players attitudes have to be right, but coaches need to put the players in position to play at their ability. Rex seems to have changed a lot by making the scheme more simple.

Big C Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 I'd like to see the whole breakdown of our roster, but I do not care to pay for insider.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 I think the more interesting question is what was the result from the 2014 and 2015 ranking exercises... Did it correlate to success or is it just another meaningless and inconsequential ranking
Big C Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 I don't know what ESPN does with PFF's stats, but you can see the projected starters with their grades from last season at this page: https://www.profootballfocus.com/pro-pff-offseason-grades-buffalo-bills/
26CornerBlitz Posted June 7, 2016 Author Posted June 7, 2016 14. Buffalo BillsTop five players: DT Marcell Dareus, OG Richie Incognito, OT Cordy Glenn, CB Ronald Darby, DE Jerry Hughes Starters who should be upgraded: OG John Miller, OT Jordan Mills, WR Robert Woods, LB Preston Brown There is a lot to like about the Bills. Tyrod Taylor's 2015 season was a huge boost to a team that previously had one of the worst quarterback situations in the league. He was far from perfect as a passer, but he looked more than viable in his first year starting. He also added 405 rushing yards while scrambling and another 151 on designed carries. The defense could be even better than it looks if their top three draft picks make an immediate impact. Pass-rusher Shaq Lawson has already undergone surgery to repair a damaged shoulder, but linebacker Reggie Ragland and defensive tackle Adolphus Washington could both plug huge gaps with a good debut season.
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 (edited) Perfect!! "Almost good enough" is our wheelhouse! We know it very well The difference between good and great is small.....maybe 1" or 1.5" Edited June 7, 2016 by The Thurmanator
