You know, the area everyone was discussing. we won’t be the track meet team, but have talent across the board. Would’ve been nice to get faster on offense still though.
1st Ammendment NoMas Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 My take is that they thought Dillon would be there in the 3rd and had to take Epenesa when he slid. Moss is Dillon lite, but seems punishing. I say we go out and add Devonta Freeman to this group and find one more WR and we are stocked.
ChevyVanMiller Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 Love this quote about Moss: Contact Balance: Like trying to knock over a weeble-wobble. Mass rides low and he runs with a wide base. Flexibility in his ankles and hips allows for him to catch his body at absurd angles to the ground and still retain his balance and quickly turn upfield. Has a bowling ball approach to tight spaces and an active off-hand to stun the initial brunt of incoming contact. Able to generate scramble drill plays with shocking survival ability in between the tackles. 3 1

Yeah, maybe treading water while getting younger and cheaper on defense, but we are CERTAINLY more talented on offense. And the draft is far from over. I like our FO as one of our advantages. Later rounds is where I hope we can “win” over a lot of other teams. GO BILLS! 2

We will be an "impose our will" offense, not a Madden 2020 offense. I'm happy with that... 4

Ok we just got another (more physical) Singletary. I'll freaking take it. Vision and contact balance for days. Between Allen, Knox, Singletary and Moss, just keep a weekly slot open for Angry Run nominations earmarked for a Bills representative. 3
GreggTX Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 He should be a decent backup RB. Too bad we have done nothing to bolster the blocking.

Which ones? Tennessee is the outlier, not the standard. 1 minute ago, John from Riverside said: Controlling games against high powered offenses is very important Want to beat teams with good offense? Control the ball and help your D You do that by running the ball In Back To The Future, Marty McDly went back 30 years into the past. You've done that outlining the strategy needed to win games in the 1990 NFL because ball control doesn't matter when your opponent scores 30+ like KC or perhaps BAL can do. Didn't Houston just score 19 points on Buffalo in something like 1.5 quarters? How are base DE's and slower RB's going to help Buffalo score?

He should make us stronger. Good pick. A complimentary back to Singletary. 1

I assume you mean in the running back department and not as a team as a whole Stephon Diggs Smoke Our two start WR's add plenty of speed to this team Having a young banger RB was ALSO a need 2 1
NewEra Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 While I really wanted to add back with more speed, I’m pretty happy right now. he compliments Singletary in a different way. reminds me of a smaller looking Lynch. i feel his top end speed is better than the 4.65 at the combine. I’d say a hamstring tweak could have an impact. gonna be tough to decide between a moss and a Singletary Jersey. Who’s the lead back in 2 years? Probably going to be a game to game split. I’m eager to see how these kids grow together.

There were 15 WR's taken, 6 of which came in the first round. Another 9 in rounds 2-3. RB's are a devalued asset in the modern NFL. And it shows year after year when perhaps 1-2 are taken in the first round.
