I know it will require a lot of cap space and maneuvering, but could be done. Hopefully he will not require an extremely long term contract and will believe that he could win a SB here in Buffalo. Eisen believes this is what we should do and I agree. https://youtu.be/2yu0eu-jQW0 Hello, the 80s called. They want their offense back. Maybe we can get Barry Sanders to come out of retirement, he probably still has tread on the tires. It's a passing league now and we have ONE WR who can get open and catch the ball. Please, let's CONTINUE to ignore WR ... Quote

It's like WRs in Baltimore in 2022.... we have a pass happy OC like they had a run happy OC. Quote

Okay ... let's go all in on Barkley so Dorsey can give him 7 carries a game while we chuck the ball 50 yards downfield to Stefon Diggs and a bunch of undrafted free agents. Believe me, I want to have an effective running game ... but big money on Barkley is not the answer. I'd rather bring in Greg Roman as run game coordinator and draft a 4th round RB to go with Cook and Singletary (who we probably can resign cheap) Quote
GETTOTHE50 Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 fix the oline first. new guards and rt and put bates at center. then you will see cook and hines do much better. forget Singletary and saquon. sign or draft a #2 wr. cut Mckenzie. Quote

Your offense never uses the RB in their game plan, they always seem to be an after thought. (See last game for example). I don’t think Barkley go to Buffalo just for that reason, if he left he go somewhere like Miami or Baltimore where he can pump his numbers up more, but again I think he resigns with the Giants. Quote
billieve420 Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) Don't pay top dollar for FA RBs it is never worth it. Draft and replace once they come up on their rookie deals. Edited January 24, 2023 by billieve420 1 Quote

Yeah the defense played scared, but they weren’t holding cinci under the measly 10 points the offense mustered up. Quote
Billl Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 Why would anyone want him? He averaged 4.4 ypc in the running game and 4.4 yards per target in the passing game. Add to that the fact that he had 352 touches last year (the exact same number as his rookie season), and he's likely to get hurt again. Quote
Scott7975 Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 Sign him with what? The Bills are $15 mil over the cap and have 24 players to sign to get a full roster. Even restructuring Josh barely takes care of the cap we are already over. You want to restructure the entire team to sign one guy? Quote
gotme365 Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 Prime Jim Brown won’t make a difference without upgrades in the Trenches Quote
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 I want a bettering ram that can punish that cover two shell. Apparently this draft is loaded with RB talent Quote

ghostwriter Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 I love Saquon but we need hogs up front more than anything. Take that money and sign RT Mike McGlinchey to sure up that right side of the line and draft a couple interior guys RDs 1-3. Also keep in mind that we can re-sign Singletary at 1/3 of the cost of Barkley and Singletary has less wear. My FA wishlist • Mike Gesicki, TE, Miami UFA • Mike McGlinchey, RT, SF UFA Quote

billsfan89 Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 Oline is the issue not RB. Cook is a ready made back heading into 2023 and Singletary/Hines are solid depth options if they are brought back. The team needs two new starters on the Oline plus depth and an heir apparent for Mitch. Quote

I can't see us bringing Singletary back with way Cook took over the starting spot in 2022 and with Hines coming in as a #2 more. We should draft someone that can compete for touches/be a hammer when needed but drafted later than sooner. Quote
WNY Posted January 24, 2023 Author Posted January 24, 2023 https://www.yahoo.com/sports/report-saquon-barkley-seeking-christian-163800030.html Disregard.....I guess it was just a pipedream anyways. Quote

They don't fit the scheme they are slow power run scheme types. Best to sign a free agent and draft back to back guys in rounds 2 and 3 or 3 and 4. There may be some OTs that they consider at end of round 1. Pick could compete with Brown or maybe move inside to G temporarily or permanently. Maybe Cody Mauch is a possibility. 1 Quote
