I mean........the running back IS the LEAST important player of those 11 though.    @GunnerBill said it and I'm doubling and tripling down on that sentiment.

 

So let's not get carried away with how much better it makes you as a team to improve your RB position by a quarter of a yard per touch.

 

If this weren't the case then the last 20+ years wouldn't have been so hard on teams that put a high priority on the value of their RB's.

I don’t disagree, and I’m not pushing huge chips in with getting him but do think some folks were getting carried away the opposite direction.

Singletary is decent but there are opportunities on the field for so much more. There's a reason Cook is the only RB to score a rushing TD this year - speed matters in the red zone.

 

The Bills proved tonight they are capable of beating the Chiefs even when Mahomes is playing well. BUT they didn't prove that a Super Bowl appearance is all but guaranteed. McCaffrey puts us over the top. Get it done.

 

And OBJ. IDC it's about winning the Superbowl this year - Diggs Davis OBJ and CMC burn it all this season

We don't know where Devin was "supposed to go" on that Allen run on the audible.  Its easy to say post snap where, but we do not know what the pre snap call was.  So not really fair to put it on Devin if you don't know that Devin even made a mistake.  

 

Allen gushed about Devin in his post game presser too.  

 

And Devin made a lot of important plays for us today, and that is both from watching the game and listening to Josh give him high praise today.  

He's supposed to. He's the leader of the team. He'd probably praise Spencer Brown too

[JerseyBills]

Don't want him.

Don't need him.

 

Too many mouths to feed

Motor is just fine!

If I had to rank it in my own head, an addition of someone like OBJ is infinitely more valuable and I would bang on the table much harder for him if it was possible.

 

If it’s “add noone or add CMC,” then I lean to add CMC 

 

 

Basically OBJ is worth about 5 more yards per touch over his career than Lil' Dummy McKenzie.   So yeah..........if that gets Dummy off the field then that addition makes A LOT of sense.

 

Upgrading from Singletary's 5.1 yards per touch over the last 3 seasons with McCaffrey's 5.3............I mean who gives a f*ck about that minutia.........those numbers are insignificant.    A pittance of difference.

If you’re looking at yards per touch, sure. 
 

McCaffrey is averaging 8.5 yards per catch to Singletary’s 6.7 in that same time period.

your numbers are wrong btw. Singletary is 4.9 yards per touch to McCaffrey’s 5.4 in the last three seasons.

As a DC, would more attention be given to CMC or DS? How does that affect the other pass catchers on the field?

The Bills are 5-1 and just beat their “chief” rival on the road and your reaction is to think up derogatory nicknames for our players?  Nice.

That's all that matters because RB's have to do BOTH to be most effective at EITHER.

The Bills defense would gladly let you dump off passes to RB's all day.    It's their defensive philosophy.

as would everybody else in the world other than CAR.  They said today they'd entertain a trade if multiple 1sts were involved.  Game over if true

Three 1st's I heard today. Forget that

Wait wait wait, no.

 

From a macro perspective, a WR is always going to have a larger impact at YPT than an RB. The average yards per play are going to be vastly different.

But a star RB is always gonna have WAY more touches than a star WR. Hell Singletary had 100 more touches than Diggs last year lol.

I underlined the part that you should have gone with.

But the second part is also true. The answer is not to roster 9 WR’s and never run. Because that will never happen.

They don't really want to trade him. Diggs was only worth 1 and he hasn't any injury history. What did Beane teach Dan Morgan when he was here? 😂

[zow2]

IMO we are in year 2 of a 4 year window to win the SB.  I mean a great chance to win the SB.  So management should do what they need to do to make this team as strong as possible.  Don't give up multiple 1st round picks but anything somewhat reasonable should be in play.

Are you implying that they haven't made significant investments in their RB position already?   Or that a fraction of a yard difference per touch between RB's is.........big?     Because both are just wrong.

I’m implying their investments at RB haven’t born fruit, because, well obviously.

 

and the differences in yards per touch are not as weighted as low as you want to make them, because RB’s touch the ball a lot more than WR’s.

[gflande1]

I honestly wouldn’t want them sending any picks. With his current contract, it’s a one year deal. We’d either have to let him walk or renegotiate a better deal.
 

With the bills current cap situation, it’s likely they’ll have to let a few players leave after this season, which means we need every pick in the draft. The teams future is in the draft with all the big money contracts we have. 

[Bing Bong]

Apparently Cam Akers is likely to be dealt out of LA. I liked him a lot from what I saw in the playoffs last year.

 

I'm happy enough with motor but Cam's my guy if we're shopping. Young, not much mileage, rookie deal, runs like a maniac
