Well said, my friend! There's probably 100,000 people on this board with 100,000 different opinions on how we should build the team!! LOL! Some more informed than others, only time I get pissed off at someone for their opinion is when they don't use facts to back it up! Especially around draft time, you'll see fans banging the board for multiple reasons: #1- His name sounds cool. #2- Sensationalized by the national media. #3- Played on such and such big school. They know who they are and it's super annoying! Sometimes it's a conundrum. 1

Good players are found all over the draft and the Bills need a lot more good players. The current regime’s penchant for paying multiple draft picks for one player isn’t a good strategy. The Bills (Based off of early returns) seem to have drafted 3 starters in each of the past 2 drafts (Possibly 4 if Allen and Zay pan out.) That's a pretty good rate, I fully trust the regime in drafting. It's the use of the cap space that I am not so sure about .

Offense probably needs 5 new starters That’s two more drafts at their current “ rate” of finding starters ( that’s probably being generous) just for the O.

Allen the jury is still out on. That being said I would not be opposed to trading mid or late round picks for established WR's but I do overall trust this regime when it comes to the draft.
BillsFan692 Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 Future is bright in Buffalo i still BILLieve. Allen is shaky but he will get better with time. Not sure what his ceiling we will be but def not at it so RELAX.

We have a bunch of guys playing serious minutes from just the last draft. (Your “rate” is questionable, at best.) If we sign 2-3 starters with all that cap money next year and draft a few more, we’re in the mix. I’d go FA OLine, and draft WR as they are too expensive in FA. We can do 5 new starters on offense, and PRAY some other guys step up.

Idk if there are any huge FAs out there...but I think thats where this team will need to hit. C Ryan kalil would be an awesome get and he has Carolina Panthers ties so it may be a win-win, he's getting up there in age but still is playing at a very high level.

We know they can identify defensive talent. Do you trust them to identify offensive skill positions? And of those 10 draft picks 7 are after the 3rd round. The Bills need to hit on A LOT of those picks to replace players that will also be gone in 2019. We changed offensive coordinators/systems - that will ALWAYS set you back since players are fits for systems. Did Diebol ask for Kelvin Benjamin? Staying consistent with the systems/coaching and good things will happen and suddenly our draft picks and free agents will work out much better

Sometimes yes. Sometimes no. It really just depends on the player(s) in question, the picks being dealt or received and the team's needs. 3 hours ago, jahbonas said: We changed offensive coordinators/systems - that will ALWAYS set you back since players are fits for systems.

The rest are Beane acquisitions.

Lol no...but we are also in postion to bring guys in. I mean....Buffalo has become a more attractive spot than I could ever remember. FAs actually come here and we dont have to break the bank anymore. I think thats one of the positives of bills mafia/culture blah blah blah.
