Isn't that guy Duke? Hes looked good so far. Im definitely comfortable with Foster as our #4. 

 

So i dont see the point to acquire a guy as depth since we have Foster. If we are indeed looking for a WR then it must be a guy that can be our Alpha dog

We are getting to know Beane a little. For example, the Bills reported interest in Sanders could have been a smokescreen. The obvious need is someone more dynamic to compliment Brown. As good as Brown is, it is  has become a glaring need.

We already have a situational deep threat guy in Foster who rarely plays

 

We need an impact WR not this guy

Exactly. I get really tired of hearing people say "good enough". The ONLY thing that qualifies as good enough is winning the SB. We need a couple game changers and a probowl OT. On defense we need to add a shutdown CB and an elite edge rusher. Add probowl talent at those positions and pray that Josh continues to improve as a passer and look out for us. I don't think we're a serious threat to go all the way, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

The ghost of Robert Foster.

Duke is the depth guy. He's looked fine in his limited role in two games, but he's not dynamic or any type of threat to stretch the field. He's the type of WR you want to bring on the field in the red zone or when you need to move the chains, and hope that if he can't get separation, that he can use his huge frame to shield off the defender and make the catch. 

 

But with his speed (or lack thereof) he's not threatening the defense at all. And with Foster inactive, no one but Brown, or Andre Roberts who has barely played WR for the past few years, has that ability. That would be a big element added to the offense. Defenses wouldn't be able to sit on underneath routes or shade to Brown's side on deep routes if there was another capable player opposite him. 

 

AJ Green (injuries aside) obviously fits the bill but will be costly. Anderson does too. DeVante Parker has flashed a bit this season but would be another in-division deal. Just seeing now that Dante Pettis might be moved that could be an intriguing flyer, he would be a change of scenery lottery ticket kind of like Zay Jones going to the Raiders. 

 

I just want to see anything other than a practice squad guy out there as a starter. I don't want to see this team waste this opportunity with this soft schedule

They are sitting Foster out so they can use him as the sweetener in a trade for true WR.

That GIF makes me think of the fence painting scam run by Tom Sawyer, and how the Bills could use it in dealing Foster before the trade deadline:  “Wow, that Foster’s such a devastating receiver that we have left him inactive all season long.  It just wouldn’t be fair to the rest of the league to unleash him to play!”

Him too, but I don't think the Bills are looking for DT specifically.

They should be because the Star/Peko tandem at 1T is uh...not great, to put it lightly

I don't disagree.  The Bills are playing Jordan Phillips at nose at least some of the time because Kyle Peko isn't big enough or strong enough to handle it.  Phillips is a more natural 3 tech despite his size, but at least he's big enough not to get pushed around.  It's just that the Bills' lack of murmuring about DT makes me think they've decided to try and make it through the season with their current foursome at DT knowing they get Harrison Phillips back next year.  I don't necessarily agree with Buffalo's approach
