Why not a Free Agent RB2?

Yes, Round 3 is the sweet spot between performance and value and it's what I predict Beane will do.


I agree, and I’m hoping AJ Dillon last until our pick and its him.  
 

Major draft crush on him right now.  A young Jerome Bettis is what I see.  Also Derrick He th clone.

 

Big. Powerful. Fast. Elusive. Great hands.

We all agree that there is a "hole" on the roster in the RB group.  Whoever they add and by whatever means they get him, he will be on the field with the ball in his hands way more than any other player they acquire from now until the start of the season (if we are blessed to have the conditions to have one.)  This will happen if he is RB1, RB1a/b or RB2.  RBs take more physical punishment than any other position, imo, and they get dinged up all the time.  This RB might get significant playing time should Devin suffer any lingering or serious injury.  We all want more playmaking talent added to the offense, right?  So, why not get the best playmaking talent possible added to the roster?

 

I am pretty sure that the Bills front office has put together a well thought out plan to address this roster "hole."  I'd love to know what it is.  We'll probably only know a small part of it based on what we see them do in the draft.  Do they want a specialist?  Do they want an all around talent that is capable of being on the field in any situation?  Do they want someone that is good at parts of the game where Devin lacks?  Getting someone as good as or better than Devin makes the offense better.

I don't see Singletary as a top 8 RB in the league and if we have a chance to get that sort of guy, it should be our first choice.
