Finding someone who's able to replace Saffold and upgrade the pass protection will move Josh's needle. Now let's work on finding Spencer's replacement. The Harty signing is a little of an overpay but hopefully Ken won't shi# the bed finding a intelligent way to use him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel free to comment on which signing is the most wizardy as well 😁 This might be the dumbest attempt at a LAMP troll thread I’ve seen in a long time. Why waste everyone’s time? This is the kind of thread that reduces the need to read anything else you’re gonna post in any other thread. It’s that bad. Good luck with that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyo321 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 (edited) The most impactful signing wont even be on our team, but will be in the AFCE. It will be when the Jets sign Rodgers. This entire division has gotten real, in just two years. There will be no layup games in this division anymore.

GreggTX Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Connor McGovern will have the most impact if, as I fear, he starts. Unfortunately, his impact won't be positive. He's also overpaid and taking up a roster spot. I'm still hoping we sign a quality OL and Harty can do a good job on punt returns so I voted for him. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buftex Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Yeah, would have to go with McGovern. He will likely be our starting right guard. Supposed to be an excellent pass blocker, so-so run blocker. But, barring anything unexpected, you can already pencil him in as a starter. Not a knock on our coaches (ok, maybe a little) but Harty could be a great weapon, or like other guys they have brought in, he could have almost no opportunities, or much impact. Not even necessarily a reflection on the player, but our coaching staff and their reluctance sometimes, to try to get more out of the tools they have at their disposal.

Chaos Posted March 19, 2023 Author Share Posted March 19, 2023 (edited) Initially this was intended to be a bit tongue in cheek. I had assumed that this first phase of free agency may have seen more activity. But I guess as the first phase of free agency concludes, Conner McGovern is our big move, with a couple of million of cap space left for a small move and enought cap to sign the draft picks. Really hopeful that Elam, Cook, and Benard can have first second and third round rookie impact in their second seasons. If that happens (and white returns to preinjury levels, and Miller comes back to pre injury levels) we should be considered championship contenders.

From what I read, McGovern is a solid G. I think Harty is most likely going to have spot duty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a 52.2 grade from pff last season, not sure McGovern gives me anything to smile about. Upgrade from Saffold sure, but Ike is an upgrade over Saffold as well ( barring he stays healthy). Not really excited over any FA'S we've gotten so far. Almost Happy we re-signed a couple of our own though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turk71 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 McGovern was rated 64th out of 77 Guards last season, great pickup. If there's one thing Beane is a wizard at its finding offensive line talent. Let's all get behind the new starting guard and pretend he is going to be good all offseason. When it turns out he sucks we can attribute it to the need for continuity and time required to gel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Bills are still a passing team, no matter how much fans think running still leads to success in the NFL. Interesting. 13th in pass blocking and 64th overall? He must be the worst run blocker in the entire NFL if that is true. What was Seumalo's pass block rank? From PFF last season BETTER PASS PRO THAN RUN BLOCKERS ANDREW NORWELL, WASHINGTON COMMANDERS ISAAC SEUMALO, PHILADELPHIA EAGLES KEVIN DOTSON, PITTSBURGH STEELERS JUSTIN PUGH, ARIZONA CARDINALS DALTON RISNER, DENVER BRONCOS Evidently Seumalo is also a better pass blocker than run blocker, and he's 10th overall compared to 64th for McGov, which means he is also a very good run blocker. Spin it any way you want, the Bills overpaid and missed out on a much more talented lineman. Last year a bunch of folks got excited about Rodger Saffold. I wasn't one of them. I said he sucked, and he did. The ***** line needs talent. Once again it looks like plug in some crap and hope for the best. Unbelievable to me that Allen is on his second contract and they still haven't given him a decent line. That should have been the first priority imo.

Wizard Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Damien Harris so far. I can always hope it is Bobby Wagner and Isaac Seamulo. Bates and Boettger are serviceable backups to me. Besides Milano, every Bills linebacker is at best a backup and/or limited to a few special teams packages 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locomark Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 (edited) Whichever guy we sign in a few weeks at $4-5 million to be an experienced DE pass rusher while Von heals. Edited March 21, 2023 by Locomark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ndirish1978 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Impossible to say. You could argue last season at this point aside from Von Miller it would be Saffold and he turned out to be a turnstile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
