Mango Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 1 hour ago, Johnnyp566 said: Next years draft needs to include a massive emphasis on offense and the interior is no exception. The Bills pursued Saffold in the past and it’s too bad he didn’t sign because then he wouldn’t be in a one and done situation. One one hand it would be great to have him. But we have to start filling holes with immediate impact from our draft picks. OL is no exception. You can’t kick the proverbial cap space can down the road forever. At some point you have to pay the bill. New Orleans is a good example. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Otreply Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 He would make great depth if we can get someone better to take the starting position. Just sayin… Go Bills!!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been OK, but he shouldn't be paid like a Pro Bowl Guard because his play this season isn't at that level.

atlbillsfan1975 Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 All he has to do is play good and then accept the offer Beane gives. Am I missing something? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastport bills Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 This guy has been a great addition. First he’s a road grader and is opening holes for backs that were viewed as pedestrian. He hasn’t allowed a sack which is hard to fathom. Finally, he loves being a Bills player. Bring Roger back because he’s locker room plus as well. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen Saffold miss blocks and the only reason Josh didn't get whacked was because of Josh's legs. If he expects to be paid like a top guard in the NFL, I think he's in for a rude awakening. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 2 hours ago, FrenchConnection said: It’s nice that players want to stay here. That wasn’t always the case at all. Wonderful community, player friendly organization, best fanbase in the world. What's not to love? I'd bring him back on a team friendly deal but only as a backup. This team's #1 weakness is OL. We have to FINALLY draft aggressively on OL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 While Saffold’s performance is obviously subject to critique, how great is it to have a veteran NFL player openly lobby to stay in the organization? 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StHustle Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Cool so that means he’ll take a vet minimum deal. I’d be ok with that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78thealltimegreat Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 We desperately need a tackle and C/G with 2 of the first 4 picks we also need to get a Josh a speed receiver and 2 TE hole is enormous… in other words I want Roger back but this draft we gotta go heavy on the O in general 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROCBillsBeliever Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 3 hours ago, TheBeaneBandit said: Hopefully he comes back but we also draft his understudy. This, precisely! We all know this regime values competition, and tries to make every role a battle to win. If Saffold is down to take a hometown discount, and we bring in a lower-round draft pick to learn and battle for a spot, that's optimal.

I agree. Too often, stats don’t tell the entire story. Like last year when our d was rated number one but most would agree it wasn’t the best in the league. Well…Saffold may not have given up a sack, but he hasn’t been great either. Beane bet on Allen’s talent to mask the deficiencies of the line, which is exactly what has happened. 31 minutes ago, streetkings01 said: Interior lineman and playmakers needs to be the focus of the draft. The off-season needs to be finding cash to resign our defensive players via restructures and cap casualties. Totally agree. Prime draft assets need to go to the offense. Enough of betting on Allen to cover up the deficiencies of a patch work oline. Get him a couple new linemen and a weapon or two to pair with Diggs. 20 minutes ago, eball said: While Saffold’s performance is obviously subject to critique, how great is it to have a veteran NFL player openly lobby to stay in the organization? I think Saffold realizes his career is winding down and is doing a little butt kissing cause he knows his options may be limited. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlgarsh Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 RT is a bigger need than LG IMO based on play this year. Draft both, Saffold can hold the fort down while teaching a young guy what to do. I think at this point, Brown has regressed. May be due to scheme, who knows.

MrEpsYtown Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 FA guard wise, he is probably in the top 5 or so available. His play has been up and down imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
