The recievers and pass rush still concern me, not sure they have enough there, more so at reciever, but assuming Allen continues to progress there should be no reason this team isnt competing for a playoff spot come late December. I'd like to see another WR with size. I think Ed Oliver is going to help the pass rush quite a bit. Not only will he be more disruptive than Kyle Williams was at the end of his career, (and I love Kyle Williams) his elite skill set and athleticism is going to pull attention away from Jerry Hughes. Hopefully, Shaq Lawson will continue to improve on the other side, and maybe with another year removed from his injury, Buffalo can get something from Trent Murphy. 1 1
4merper4mer Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Reporter made some good points but also likes bands that dress up like giant eyeballs so who knows? 3 2
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 I know I haven't felt this good about the team in many years. sure, proof is in the pudding but the ingredients the last two years has made for what should be a successful run at the division and beyond. call me impressed 1
Jumpsuit Jim Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 (edited) The wideout crop in this year’s draft is weak overall. That is why we hit the bin big time in free agency. There was no need to reach for mediocrity when we could get the mediocrity during free agency and use the draft for high quality. Free agency where the draft is weak. Draft the year’s strong positions (we got a top 3 overall DLineman at #9. Sick). Who cares that we missed DK? Edited April 27, 2019 by Jumpsuit Jim 1
Shaw66 Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 That's a really insightful commentary. I hadn't thought about the Allen angle - acquire a legitimate franchise qb prospect without mortgaging the future. I think Beane is one talented dude. 1
Warcodered Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 I mean I know people were angry they didn't get a WR yesterday but they had to know people wanted that and they got the guys they wanted. That's not a bad sign.

If/when this team gets 6-8 wins this year I'd start over with a new vision. As someone said, the record will do the talking. The rest is just typical off-season Bills Kool Aid drinking. 1
BillsFan4 Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Agree with Wawrow 100%. This is by far the best I’ve felt about any Bills regime since Polian. I actually have faith in our front office and coaching staff, and it feels great! I mean..... Just listen to their press conference. how could you Not love these guys? 1

Woodman19 Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 This is the difference between assembling a team vs. just finding good players.

We kind of already upgraded the WR corps already with two new players abd actually building an offensive line to buy time for routes to develop.

Yeah we did, but I still don't think they're satisfied with it and will make more attempts to upgrade it this year. They might not be able to but I think they'll keep trying based on the attempt to get AB and the talk of a trade with Atlanta.
BullBuchanan Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 How do we compare against the other strong and rising teams of the AFC? The Patriots, Chiefs, Chargers, Browns, Ravens, Jets, Colts, Broncos, Jags, Steelers What's the script that allows us to run through each of these teams in January?

I can’t see this front office trading a 1st round pick for Julio Jones
MrEpsYtown Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Somebody needs to help John with Twitter and character limits...but great points all around. Trading up in front of the Patriots and grabbing Knox tells me Beane is willing to move around the board and paying attention to what is going on, which is way different than what we are used to around here. Remember how how painful and confusing it was for Buddy to trade up for TJ Graham? It's like he did not know what he was doing. Beane is a pro. He gets it and he's smart. You may not always choose the right players, but how can anyone argue against the process? Let's see what the results are.

I would offer you $5 for every documented instance of someone here posting either of those things, but it wouldn't be fair right now 1

That just leaves statements of Whaley being better than Beane... ? Edited April 27, 2019 by MDH

If you aren't considering them at minimum better than us on paper, you're making a mistake. Edited April 27, 2019 by BullBuchanan 1
