YoloinOhio Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) For those without an Athletic sub (I hope you at least have a Wegmans sub but I digress) re-signs - Shaq 4 years, 31 mill Dean Marlowe, Waddle, Julian Stanford Tender RFA Isaiah McKenzie at original round render Tender ERFAs Levi Wallace, Robert Foster, Jason Croom lets hit the market - Spain, K Johnson, Gore, Jordan Phillips, Maurice Alexander, Kurt Coleman, Senorise Perry Free Agency signings: CB Xavier Rhodes, Minn 1 year 8 mill SLB Kyler Fackrell, GB 3 years, 15 mill RB Jordan Howard, Phil 2 years 7 mill Ol Joe Haeg , Indy 2 years 5 mill 3 tech DT Sheldon Day, SF 1 year 2.5 mill Extensions - Milano 4 years, 52 mill Dawkins 5 years, 71 mill White 5 years, 78 mill Draft- 22 OT Andrew Thomas , UGA 54 S Kyle Dugger, Lenoir-Rhyne 86 WR Bryan Edwards, S Carolina 118 DE Alton Robinson, Syracuse 137 WR Antonio Gandy-Golden, Libert 149 CB Harrison Hand, Temple 168 RB Antonio Gibson, Memphis 181 OL Keith Ismael, San Diego st 187 CB Sanford Samuels III, FSU I like a lot of this but not sure about Edwards with that broken foot and also it’s one pick ahead of Khalid Kareem in this mock so I’d be real tempted to take him there. Don’t know a lot about Alton Robinson but Kareem is an excellent player Edited February 22, 2020 by YoloinOhio
Kirby Jackson Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 My initial reaction is that he didn’t do nearly enough to address the skill positions. The Bills need to upgrade their weapons. This doesn’t do it. They aren’t nearly explosive enough. 24 1 1
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 My nightmare scenario there. No WR FA or before round three? I'd have serious questions about the direction in this case. 8
qwksilver Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) An OT in round one means Beane and company are throwing in the towel as Ford as a RT. I don't think they are there just yet. Milano's contract seems crazy, but I guess that is where we are in today's NFL. Pretty solid off season but prefer they attack WR more and who's rushing the passer? Edit: didn't see Fackrel signing but might not be enough anyways. Edited February 22, 2020 by qwksilver 1
1st Ammendment NoMas Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 Love it except for neglect of true #1 WR. Anyone know the reason for Fackrell's big drop off, 10.5 sacks (2018) down to 1 (2019). Was he hurt? I don't follow GB much, so no intel on this signing.
DFT Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 Surprised he left a TE out of the equation. Well thought out though and even though there’s nothing “sexy” here, it does almost everything necessary. But not upgrading the skill positions with anything but mid-round picks to support Josh’s continued development is where I’d disagree. Failure to upgrade the teams continued biggest weakness just doesn’t seem “Beaney” at all. Not only do I think they’ll be in play for compliments at TE, but I think they’ll be focused on bringing in a big-bodied receiver. But as my wife continues to remind me, I’m way more wrong than right.

Clyde Smith Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 I would be highly disappointed if this was the outcome. 1
Gugny Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 This is dumb. It's like he thought it was opposite day. He can't be this stupid. 5 2 1

Pass rusher still seems meh to me after this 7 minutes ago, BillsRdue said: Love it except for neglect of true #1 WR.

I do think Rhodes would be a classic Beane signing and I like the Jordan Howard signing 2

This wasn't great last year. The 1st RD OT seems not so smart. Does he mock the 1st round? I'd like to see what else was available.

The better question is why 10.5 in 2018, only 6 combined the other 3 years... 1

Josh Jones, Shenault, Blacklock, Swift, Justin Jefferson, Patrick Queen, Raekwon Davis, Reagor, Delpit, Jonathan Taylor are taken after 22. 19 minutes ago, qwksilver said: An OT in round one means Beane and company are throwing in the towel as Ford as a RT.

I would be ok with moving Ford to G and taking Thomas. I doubt he’s there at 22 though 2
OldTimer1960 Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 While I do recognize that the team has needs beyond WR, I can’t see how you can possibly ignore that huge need. Brown and Beasley are nice, but there isn’t even a young WR on the roster that you even have a *hope* that he could be impactful beyond them. I understand that this is being touted as a very deep WR class, but that should not entice them to get cute and wait until the bottom third of round 3 to address it. I think that is just begging for not filling that need - at least in 2020.
TheBeaneBandit Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 Thomas would be a great pick (probably long gone though), but I hope a lot of the other moves are quite a bit different.

Just depends on where they have him on their board, not where he ultimately falls. My concern with the player is the foot injury
Gambit Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 I sure as hell hope Milano doesn't get that much. He isn't worth that price.

My concern with the player is the foot injury It isn't that a 3rd round WR can't pan out, but you certainly have better odds of satisfactorily filling a need in earlier rounds. I am not opposed to a WR in the 1st or 2nd AND another in round 3, but I think they would be taking a big chance by not bringing in a viable FA and also waiting until round 3 to take a WR. If they do that, they are once again not giving Allen enough talent around him to determine if he can be the long-term answer at QB.
