It's crazy to look at and realize we aren't even through the value portion of FA or the draft yet!
LABILLBACKER Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 On 3/18/2020 at 6:54 AM, billsfan_34 said: Lee Smith is as good as gone. Tough to carry 4 TE’s and 6 WR’s. Too much talent for him to stick and Duke will win out over Lee Smith all day as he can play a hybrid role in a pinch or be the big bodied receiver we need. Josh Norman is a corner. Say goodbye to Jaquan Johnson. Our punter was erratic last season- the Bills will bring in 2 legs to compete for the starting job. Yeldon was in the doghouse last year. Expect the Bills to draft a pounding back or grab one via FA. See ya Yeldon. 8 LB’s on the 53? Hmmmmm Agree on all counts. There's no way Lee Smith stays on this team over players like Sweeney & Duke. And clearly obd moved on from Yeldon last year. He also will be upgraded. We have to bring in 2 new punters to replace Bozo. Sean will keep extra LB's because of his system.

Bozo may be the most erratic punter ever in a Bills uniform. We must upgrade the P position.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 Was reading an column in the Athletic today and it made an interesting point. It talked about how the top 3 slots are all set, but depth remains a question and also addressed that WR is one of the positions that takes the longest for a rookie to come up to speed, but with getting Diggs they don't need a rookie to contribute much. Also talked about a few FA names they could still sign. Nothing really new there! But did get me thinking, assuming the Bills do draft a WR in 2020 would he be add more as a backup rookie than a McKenzie, Foster, or Williams, maybe,maybe not. So what as this article suggested if they draft a guy like South Carolina’s Bryan Edwards who was hurt so his draft slot will drop as result. Maybe he's ready to go, maybe not, so could stash him on IR for a year to develop without taking up a roster spot. On the other hand if prior to week 1 someone else gets hurt and out for the season, could keep him active. Or he clearly is better than the 3 names I mentioned as backups, you keep him active. 1

SoCal Deek Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 Not too shabby...and we haven’t drafted a single player yet! Some talented guys are going to get cut and then quickly snatched up by other teams. 1
Orlando Buffalo Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 You have a strong roster for who is currently a Bill- I am surprised we have no real backup ILB on roster and I assume that will be addressed relatively quickly. But I like that team.
akcash Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 Dude we are so stacked!!!! I've never seen a Bill's team this good on paper.
Paul Costa Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 And the cap looks solid next year right now. Draft will hopefully fill in RB, WR, Edge, and another CB. What do you think about bringing in Flacco @ 8 Million on a one year deal. Just in case ?
letsgoteam Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 For those dismissing Lee Smith and the value he brings to the team, I believe he would be (is?) the emergency offensive lineman. Because a lot of times didnt the Bills only dress 7 OL?

Hopefully Beane can put on his wizard's hat and once again trade those players that aren't going to make the cut on this deep roster and stock up on some more draft capital to use like the 5th and 6th round picks (Teller / Bodine) that were a part of the Diggs deal. 1

What do you think about bringing in Flacco @ 8 Million on a one year deal. Just in case ? Back up QB has been a glaring weakness since we were left with Barkley. Look no further than the regular season finale. I thinks there’s gotta be better options than Flacco, but yes, it’s an absolute need. Also must add an effective RB & Punter. THEN, we’ll be set. oh, and bring back the Jills.?
ALF Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 (edited) I give Barkley a pass for game week 17 , resting too many Bills starters for the playoffs did him in. jmo With a healthy OL and adding Diggs and hope a good replacement for Gore , Barkley should be ok if needed. He seems to have good chemistry with Allen , and now he knows the system and players. Edited March 27, 2020 by ALF

Nice guys don’t cut it at this level and, imo, that’s Barkley. 1
