Insane Investment Into the Dline Paying Off

Beane did not plan on spending nearly this much draft capital and salary cap on the D line.  He was afforded the opportunity to continue using a disproportionate amount of resources shoring up the shakiest unit on this team because he's been so successful in drafting, signing, and retaining talent in every other area of the team.  

 

Beane has done a tremendous job building the Buffalo Bills.  I give him tons of credit for our recent success.  The defense is playing lights out as a unit but that does not mean that the building of the Dline has been some master plan executed to perfection.  In my opinion, addressing the defensive line has been his biggest struggle.

The o-line says hello/help. IMO you got it backwards.

How are you feeling about that rotation this morning?

Feeling like we should be listening to any, and all, offers for Hughes/Obada/Butler and asking in return what corner/guard they are willing to swap for. 

 

Hindsight is 20/20 but having Epenesa/Basham inactive after a game like that is pretty frustrating.

They were healthy scratches like Basham has been for most of the season and AJ was for much of last season.  McD and Frazier decided to roll with Harrison Philips in the lineup for more size.  Real difference makers don't find themselves on the Inactive list because of matchups.
