Cygnus99 Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Will it be better if the Bills lose the rest of the season and be 5-11 for better draft ? Of course that is not going to happen . Most of us know we will have another mediocre season and end up 7-9 or 8-8 and be out of the playoffs . We are going to win meaningless games like beating the colts and the Dolphins at Miami
entropyrules Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) unless you really have a shot at the 1-5 slots losing out won't gain the Bills much...their big problem is their drafts have just been a mismatch to the coaching schemes...hence the constant shuffling (i.e. letting go and trading) of players. just once I wish the Bills would 1) have a coach who schemes to his players strengths and not the other way around and 2) have a competent scouting organization that is in concert with what the coaching staff is looking for Edited November 15, 2017 by entropyrules
ALF Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 No, McD and Beane have to evaluate the players to find out who will go all out even in a losing season.
TPS Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 The Bills are going to save their season with a win against LAC. It will be a home game for them, and they will fix the run D.

McBeanes seem to be in synch.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Please ... Come on guys. Stop with the quitting already!
BuffaloMatt Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 No. Play with pride win or lose. We are Bills G*d damn it!

We are going to win meaningless games like beating the colts and the Dolphins at Miami It doesn't make a difference. The Bills have been drafting in the top 10-12 most of this century, and it hasn't made them winners. Sometimes they've missed on their high picks, but mostly they don't keep them beyond their rookie contracts even if they're Pro Bowlers ... or maybe I should say, especially if they become Pro Bowlers.

K D Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 should have tanked from the start. if i was running the team we would have traded Shady for a 2nd round pick and Tyrod for a 4th back in Sept. neither will be on this team next year anyhow

Yup - just gotta hope we got the right guys in the building to do it right this time.

Hue Jackson wanted him bad and they didn't pull the trigger. Could have had Mahomes too. Need to just grab those guys and figure it out later

Tatonka68 Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 If you do not have a Franchise QB, you draft a QB every year until you have a franchise QB. "PERIOD!"

We've drafted one in 3 of the last 5 - considering you only carry 2 on the active roster that's a decent amount. Decent chance we draft another one this year giving us 1 in each of the last 3 years.
