corta765 Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 (edited) With Adam Henry added as a coach and the need to go with a greater investment on offense I wonder if we see something like this: QB Allen RB Hines/Cook + Latavius Murray as a larger back for short yardage (1 mil salary in 2022) WR1 Diggs WR2 Beckham WR3 Davis WR4 Shakir/Mckenzie/2nd Round Pick TE Knox/Sweeney LT Dawkins LG 1st round Pick C Morse RG Bates RT Brown/ FA /3rd or 4th Round Pick Now mind you most estimates have the Bills with about 30 mil in cap space with projected restructures on the way and cuts. ODB on spotrac is estimated contract at 13 mil although I do wonder after all the noise, lack of play, and injuries if that deflates down to 9-10 million. Also Beane said they were not planning on a major signing (granted GMs never are fully honest). They could probably structure the contract to space the cap hit later to protect themselves but you would need to commit for 3 years I would think for ODB. Also signing ODB means Poyer is gone and Edmunds for sure is gone while you have 10-13 million tops to fill those holes as draft usually is 7-8 mil in cap space. On the flip side the offense has a lot more juice, you get a WR in the 2nd for the long term, the offense line gets younger help, and a guy like Murray is a nice big back. This is just hypothetical and its fun, what are your thoughts? Edited February 15, 2023 by corta765 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd sign Perine over Murray and cut McKenzie/ Sweeney. Bates slides to LG and we draft RG/RT. I'd still draft a wr somewhere in the first 3 rounds. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just hypothetical and its fun, what are your thoughts? If you are confident the oline is fixed with a first round guard than this plan is viable (I think the line needs a much bigger overhaul) Having over 30 million spent on WR 1&2 with a total age of 61 is also a bit unusual. I am not sure that is optimal. I would rather spend the money on Philadelphia Eagles guard Isaac Seumalo, and roll with Davis / snd round WR pick to battle it out for WR2. Davis will be much better if Allen has better pass protection. https://heavy.com/sports/buffalo-bills/isaac-seumalo-eagles-free-agency/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OBJ sounds good on paper but he’s coming off his 2nd ACL and the only he way he signs a cheap contract is if teams have doubts about him. If he’s halfway decent, given the FA WR class, the Bills likely aren’t going to give him the contract he’ll want 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Torrence falls to the 2nd round. He's considered the best Guard in the draft and could start day 1. Also can't see Tillman falling to the 4th. I would think Robinson has a higher likelihood of still being available in the 4th vs Tillman. Unless I'm crazy, I also don't see a chance in Hades Patterson falls to the 5th. I am definitely open to the idea of trading out of the first to get us some additional picks though if there's not really any first round talent left at 27 in needs we have. I don't want to see any reaches. Edited February 15, 2023 by Billz4ever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that mock there wasn't really anything appealing left...Robinson was there, but Indy had a pretty nice trade offer so I took it and Torrence was still there after moving down 8 spots to pick up an additional 3rd and 5th, so I took him... I think once the combine happens the board placement will probably be more meaningful so this might not be realistic, but I still like it 😂 Edited February 15, 2023 by Big Turk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to disagree without having inside info. on his current status post injury. If he is deemed "FINE" I would definitely sign him. He'd make our offense much better instantly. I do agree Von Miller was a mistake, and will continue to be a mistake with his salary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just hypothetical and its fun, what are your thoughts? Since it's a hypothetical I'd go all in on the OL... Sign free agents RT Juwaan Taylor (JAX), OG Ben Powers (BAL), draft OG O'Cyrus Torrence (Florida) in round 1, draft ILB Noah Sewell (Oregon) round 2, C Joe Tippman in round 3 and let ILB Tremaine Edmunds walk in FA. Letting Tremaine walk probably means we can sign both Powers and Taylor but who knows what the price tags will be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 They’re signing Jarvis Landry. Landry might be more likely than Beckham due to cap. Pencil in Landry at slot WR. Beane has been trying to get him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
