HappyDays Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 10 minutes ago, Coach Tuesday said: WR is definitely a need. Next year, sure. If we're talking about spending draft capital on a mid-season move to put us over the top for a Super Bowl we don't need another short WR. Our biggest issues on offense are interior blocking and red zone offense. Cooks helps with neither. I don't even know where he would fit into the rotation unless we actually got rid of Beasley and moved Sanders into the slot, which I definitely don't see happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do happen to make a move I highly doubt it is for a WR, unless as you said they move on from Beasley (which I also highly doubt). Yeah agree if a move is made before deadline, very good chance it would be for a particular player that does make the difference needed to get over the top. In which case I would guess OL, CB, possibly. Unless an injury I don't see it being a WR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were actually 3-2 with him (he was inactive for the Denver game), beat two 5-11 teams and in the Falcons (10-6) win, the defense allowed 147 yards rushing, and Marcel didn't register a single defensive statistic. The defense might have suffered a little after he was traded, but the team gained immensely from shipping him out. And as an aside, I hope we're witnessing the same thing happening with the Sabres. Just a reminder for those who want to remember the facts differently. 😉 https://www.cover1.net/the-impact-of-trading-dt-marcell-dareus/ Edited October 28, 2021 by BADOLBILZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 3 hours ago, Coach Tuesday said: Speed is the need. Yep. The Bills have receivers that get open............what they don't have are receivers who can make a lot happen in traffic with the ball in their hands. So the system works great when Allen is on.........when he is not sharp and the team needs RAC yards.......the offense doesn't have much of that. A lot of fans are fixated on the Bills getting an explosive RB.......but throwing accurate and well timed passes to RB's is a glaring Allen weakness. He could definitely use another WR who can run away from people, though. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they play together at Ole Miss? I think the Knox injury is legitimately 6 weeks. He may come back a week or two sooner tops, but a healthy Knox for playoffs is what’s needed. I think the Bills should make a move for TE that allows Knox more time, no rush. Say a week 13 or 14 return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Brandon Aiyuk might be available, his playing time has evaporated in SF. Could probably get him for a 6th. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estro Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I dont think WR is something that will be addressed at this deadline, but long term we do need a young infusion with an emphasis on speed/quicks. A player with a skill set like Rondale Moore, with serious YAC skills would take this offense to another level, IMO 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills only had 2 wins against teams with winning records in all of 2017 so that's no place to plant your flag. It's about the style they were able to play early in the season knowing that they had a first line of defense. Cover 1 had excellent analysis on it. They were only 4-2 thru 6 weeks but they could also have easily been 6-0 with that defense. Two close losses. They weren't the same defense after the Dareus trade. Fact. Dareus was a really talented player and made a very significant impact in Jacksonville.....worst run defense to first run defense..........and they actually had a lead in the 4th quarter of the AFCCG against the Pats. He was tremendous in the playoffs. To imply that trading Dareus was the taking off point for the McDermott regime is laughable nonsense.......which is what I was replying to in this thread.
