How ChatGPT would have handled the 2021 Offseason

[Yantha]

So unless you are living under a rock, you have at least heard something about ChatGPT.....  I asked this AI system the following prompt:

 

"Provide an in-depth analysis on the state of the Buffalo Bills roster, cap space, ability to sign free agents, and strategy to improve the team via Free Agency and the draft. Include the top 3 positions that money should be spent on in the free agency, and the top 5 positions that should be addressed in the draft."

 

ChatGPT is only updated to 2021, so the answer it spit out was related to that offseason.  It's a fun read....  Enjoy!

 

Here is the response:

The Buffalo Bills had a successful 2021 season, finishing with a 11-6 record and winning the AFC East division for the second year in a row. However, their season ended with a loss in the AFC Championship game to the Kansas City Chiefs. Heading into the offseason, the Bills have some important decisions to make regarding their roster, cap space, and ability to sign free agents.

 

Current Roster Analysis (2021)

The Bills have a talented roster with a strong core of players led by quarterback Josh Allen, wide receiver Stefon Diggs, and cornerback Tre'Davious White. However, they have some key players who are set to become free agents, including offensive linemen Jon Feliciano and Daryl Williams, and defensive end Jerry Hughes.

The Bills' defense was a strength in 2021, ranking sixth in the league in points allowed per game. However, they could use some depth at the defensive end and linebacker positions. Offensively, the Bills could use help along the offensive line, particularly at the guard and center positions.

 

Salary Cap Situation

The Bills currently have about $10 million in cap space, which is not a lot to work with in free agency. They could create more space by restructuring contracts or releasing players, but that could have long-term implications on the team's salary cap. It's also worth noting that the NFL's salary cap is expected to increase in 2023, which could give the Bills more flexibility in future seasons.

 

Free Agency Strategy

Given their limited cap space, the Bills will need to be strategic in free agency. The top three positions where they should consider spending money are:

Offensive Guard - The Bills struggled at guard in 2021, and finding a quality starter would be a big help to their offensive line and their ability to run the ball.

Defensive End - Jerry Hughes is a free agent, and the Bills could use another pass rusher to pair with Mario Addison and A.J. Epenesa.

Linebacker - The Bills have a talented duo in Tremaine Edmunds and Matt Milano, but adding depth at this position would be beneficial.

The Bills may not be able to afford top-tier free agents, but they could find value in mid-tier players who could provide depth and fill specific needs.

 

Draft Strategy

In the draft, the Bills should focus on addressing their biggest needs. The top five positions they should consider are:

Offensive Guard - This remains a major need for the Bills and could be addressed in the first or second round.

Defensive End - The Bills could use a young pass rusher to develop behind Hughes and Addison.

Linebacker - Again, adding depth at this position would be beneficial, and the Bills could find a quality player in the mid-to-late rounds of the draft.

Tight End - The Bills have a talented receiving corps, but adding a tight end who can block and contribute in the passing game would be a boost to their offense.

Cornerback - While the Bills have a star in Tre'Davious White, they could use another quality cornerback to pair with him and provide depth.

It's worth noting that the Bills don't have a first-round pick in the 2023 draft due to their trade for defensive end Gregory Rousseau in 2021. However, they do have two picks in the second round, which could allow them to address multiple needs.

 

Conclusion

The Buffalo Bills have a talented roster and are in a good position to compete for a Super Bowl in 2023. However, they need to address some key needs in free agency and the draft, particularly along the offensive line and at defensive end. Given their limited cap space, they may need to find value in mid-tier free agents and hit

I’m already over ChatGPT and I don’t even know what it is…

Skynet does what it wants.

Yeah I have been working with ChatGPT since early January and I did a similar query but deleted it. Yesterday I made a inspirational video for my mother ALL created with AI tools to experiment with. I used Steve Harvey as the speaker since he is one of my mother favorite people.

It's funny I asked ChatGPT about the Bills-Chiefs playoff game 2 years ago and ChatGPT said that if it was head coach, it would have elected to kick short of the end zone on the kickoff and play man defense the last two plays versus the chiefs during the last 13 seconds.

And it was doing so well to that point. Took so many swings at early DEs in the draft, Beane’s drafting strategy broke the AI. Even it couldn’t believe they invested that much into the position.

Insane article and a horrifying glimpse of a manipulated future. Not only this, we still can't find an offensive line that is not offensive to the chatbot.

Minus, the part about Rousseau, it's quite possible the Bills won't have a 1st round pick this year once they trade back.   Maybe ChatGTP is just clairvoyant.

No offense intended there friend.  

 

ChatGPT is an "artificial intelligence" that's ramping up quickly, and I'm sure that depending on the industry you work in, you will hear about it sooner or later.  It's pretty cool....  but not perfect.

Chat GPT is programmed by maniacs.,mental.

Wow, just like me! 

 

I may have to change my username to ChatGPT.  🤔

Never heard of it.  Don't live under a rock.

 

But I'm not into computer stuff.

These are the most popular AI languages.  I am familiar with the ones circled in red. 

I'm sure most of our readers are aware of this but AI languages are preprogrammed or biased by mere humans! 😎

Just sayin'  ...

Can ChatGPT call offensive plays?
