Heck, won’t be a popular one but Diggs has to be a candidate to possibly step back coming to an all new offense with everything going on.

See I don’t see Beasley losing any reps. Those other receivers playing will be on the outside. I suppose that they could slide Diggs inside but I don’t see that at the expense of Beasley. It may be with Beasley in a 4 wide set.

there are only so many snaps in a season.we added diggs davis and hodges and haven’t lost anybody yet. even considering  duke losing all his reps to davis (not a given at all), barring injuries, brown and beasley have to lose reps no? the numbers don’t add up with beasley and brown not losing any reps.

Brown could lose some reps I suppose. Beasley plays when they are in a 3 wide and he is in the slot. I don’t foresee that changing when they go to 3 wide. He plays a different position than Davis.

Regress is such a strong word but as much as I hate to say it, Tre White.  I think he's really going to be challenged this year.  He has made a real name for himself, is a marked man, and we will face some top tier offenses this year.  I think we will see a drop off from him, maybe not major, but "uncharacteristic."

Expand  

That would make his price drop?  likely not....

I am a little worried about Milano. Matt has started to show a little bit of injuries here and there. Couple that with his size and every game/year is more punishment,  am keeping my eye on him. He didn’t play great last year while dealing with the hammie. 

Expand  

Yes, but I also am looking for his former safety instincts to kick in and get a few picks......he is worth watching for various factors.  He is, of course, a fitness freak, and when right is what we want out there.

it is a misconception that Beasley only played the slot last year for the Bills. He played outside around 30% of the time (NFL advanced stars). Bring injury, he is pretty much not going to get those snaps with Diggs on the field.

 

now fantasy analytics have become quite sophisticated. almost every fantasy site had a “sell” on Beasley after the Diggs trade. see for example

The Diggs trade is great news for the Buffalo offense but far less promising for Beasley's target volume. The former Cowboy was mostly limited to slot work in three-wide formations early last season, eventually progressing to a role in two-WR sets as he played more than 80 percent of snaps in five of his final six regular-season games. Beasley once again figures to be limited to three-receiver alignments now that Diggs is in the picture, so a reprisal of last year's 106 targets will be tricky if his teammates stay healthy.

And no Adam Thielen on the other side of the O-line...

I agree on Hughes, but he played hurt in 2019 so I'm not sure. I also think Brown and Beasley get fewer targets, but will still play at a high level. Diggs is another candidate. I'll be pleasantly surprised if he can duplicate what he did in Minnesota with better passers.

I think Singletary will have a similar stat sheet in 2020 as he did in 2019. Moss will be getting lots of carries in short yardage and goal line situations so Singletary’s numbers will suffer. I could see Moss with 800 yds and 10 TDS while Singletary gets 800 yds with 4 or 5 TDS. Should be a really competitive competition at RB this year.

...none....the competition is now too fierce......regress and McBeane will tell you to get "rates from Mayflower"....this ain't Dopey Dickie Jauron's "Club Med"....

Without looking at a single post, I say......

 

Offense: Tyler Kroft

 

Defense: Matt Milano

 

There really is nowhere to go but up for Kroft, but can he sustain an entire season? Dawson Knox & Tommy Sweeney will only improve, so Kroft has got to step up.

 

What concerns me about Milano is that I think he has reached his ceiling. I don't know if he can get any better than he has. This is his contract year so that could mean that he could have a big season.

This.   I think poyer extension was a bad idea.  He will be benched this year. 

I think opposite.  He excels with help

who will poyer be benched for?

Milano was an animal before suffering a dislocated ankle December 2018. I think he'll be better after a normal offseason, at least conditioning wise.

Yeah, it looks like he's going to miss some games, and when he does come back he may be in McDermott's dog house for a while.  That generally doesn't do good things for a young player's development.

The entire receivers group, wr, te, rb, will all need to understand they will be sharing targets, and who ever is hot will get the most one would assume... there I go assuming again...

Beasely?  He's in the slot--teams aren't going to worry about him with Diggs on the outside.
