And if not them, who to target in the draft (we will need to drft one regardless of FA in my opinion Good question I go Star because of his familiarity with McD but either one would be great.

That's clearly not true. It's never been true. What's the purpose in stating literal falsehoods that add nothing to the discussion? If you were a top free agent at your position, and you wanted a ring, would YOU want to come here? Or, would you rather go to New England, Pittsburgh, Atlanta, Jacksonville, Philadelphia, LA Rams or Minnesota? Edited February 28, 2018 by Buffalo Bills Detective

I would want to go where I get the most guaranteed money, a place where I have a chance to play, somewhere my family is comfortable, somewhere that I am comfortable and then a chance to chase a ring. When the average career is 3.3 years long, money is infinitely more important than chasing a ring. Edited March 1, 2018 by Kirby Jackson 1

Do I just care about a ring, or do I want the right combination of (a) money, (b) the chance to start, (c) cost of living, (d) schools (I may or may not have a family), (e) familiarity with coach/players/system, (f) potential to win a Super Bowl, (g) team's cap situation (which will dictate how many other key FAs they can bring in), (h) team's draft capital, etc.? Yeah, there's more to it than "Buffalo sucks!!!11!!!1!"

Pete Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Marquise Lee or Paul Richardson and draft DT and front 7
Virgil Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Neither. If we are going to continue to rotate our defensive lineman like we did last year, I don’t want to pay a lot of money to one.
ghostwriter Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) I want Kyle Williams back and draft a star DT with 21 or 22. I like Vita Vea (he'll be gone), but I think Taven Bryan will be there. Kyle Williams is still a very decent starter and I'd like to see us make the playoffs for him one last time before he retires. He just needs somebody next to him, he is not the same, but he can still play. Edited March 1, 2018 by NewDayBills

You are the detective, so you would know. Thanks for the info.
ndirish1978 Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 3 hours ago, GreggTX said: Star L. is not a good DT. He is very much below average. I suspect he'll be hanging around for a long time and will sign for far less than he got as a high draft pick. Poe is a tick above average. They will need to draft a DT in the 1st or 2nd round in either case. They signed Tolbert when it should have been clear that he had nothing left to offer. I hope they don't make that same mistake with Star L. They will also need to upgrade the depth at DT, which shouldn't be too hard. This is incorrect. Star is a very good speaceeater and is responsible for a lot of the success of his line mates. We should be able to get him for not that much. Poe has back problems, I would stay away for that reason.
