I hope the Bills invest heavily into the offensive line this offseason

[Einstein]

For all the good that Beane has done - and the list is long and great on that front and we are blessed to have him - it would be wonderful if he spent significant resources this off-season on the o-line. Spencer Brown is going to get Allen crushed sooner or later (hopefully not before we find his replacement), and Saffolds best days are long gone. I also question how much longer Morse plays with all his head injuries.

 

And when I say invest in the o-line, I don’t mean old retreads like Saffold and castoffs like Quessenberry. 

I mean high draft picks (first two rounds) and signing top tier free agents. Guys like Terron Armstead, who has been very good for Miami this season after being a top tier free agent at the Tackle position this past offseason. What to do with Dawkins? That’s a great problem to have. And James Daniels, who has been an excellent Guard for the Steelers after signing a 3 year, 26.5M contract in the offseason. Or Austin Corbett, who is on a similar deal.

 

There is some serious talent due to become free agents this offseason (of course some will re-sign with their team), including Elgton Jenkins, Mike McGlinchey, Jack Conclin, and Orlando Brown. The opportunity should be there.

 

Go Bills.

They seem to like addressing one thing at a time. First it was skill positions, then it was the D-Line, and next will be O-line. They’ll have a high first round pick which is the perfect spot to get a quality Guard.

I meant low first round pick. Sorry I’m drunk 

[ClemsonBills]

I’m at the point where idc what we do in free agency, I want OL round 1

[LABILLBACKER]

@ 32 the Bills absolutely have to draft Saffolds replacement.  WR in the 2nd round then RT in the 3rd round. No Sean I'm not allowing you to take 1 defensive player in the first 3 picks.

And round 2.

[Dablitzkrieg]

I'm hopeful they go OL, WR, OL, WR, OL, OL in the draft.   

[Buffalo Barbarian]

And elite WRs

Josh allows Beane to spend heavily on defense. We can’t keep doing this to him with mid round picks and 1 year free agents to protect the kid. 
The Chiefs rebuilt their entire oline after the Super Bowl with Tampa and the Bengals spent 80 million dollars on their oline this off season alone to protect Burrow.

Leslie and Sean having been coaching defensive football for a combined 30 years I’m sure they’ll be fine. 

[Your Brown Eye]

I'm sure they will dumpster dive for their o-line replacements/upgrades this offseason

   I don't know why  the league doesn't look to sumo wrestlers for oline talent.  Lol that would be a solid beefed up line if they got some of those fat guys.  At the very least they could try to produce some solid ol talent that learns the skills needed in nfl opposed to college ball.  Give some of these oline gurus on the nfl dime to train players in basic blocking skills.

“Complimentary football “

D would benefit from O line upgrade. 60 down and line reshuffle biggest impact on this game. 17 “hid” this. 

[Bubba Gump]

If this team had an above average o-line, they would be unstoppable.

Prime spot to grab a top level guard or center.

it would be 31 after we win the Super Bowl. The dolphins had to forfeit a first round pick this year 😂😂

 

but yes, we need to upgrade OL desperately. If we don’t meet this seasons expectations, the OL will likely be the main reason.

Put your money on a 1st round safety.

We’ve been overdoing drafting Dlineman recently last yr we could of drafted Creed Humphrey over Basham . Humphrey is a top 3 center in the game right now and at the time was a no brainer pick over Basham. McD most of overruled Beane in the draft room because double drafting DEs in first 2rds is borderline insanity especially when the previous yr we used our highest Pk and Epenesa.

If Josh is behind an offensive line that could actually give him 4-5 seconds, he can pick apart any defense in the league. He running for his life back there and still finds guys.
