Beane took a team that never made the playoffs and transformed it into a team that always makes the playoffs. Terry counted up the successes and failures and rewarded Beane with an extension. One of the things that made Basham expendable is that Beane has successfully acquired other good DEs. I do agree, though, Beane still needs to get better as a GM. He's given McD a good roster to work with, maybe a very good one, but not a great one. Edited August 29, 2023 by hondo in seattle 2 Quote
LittleSammy Posted August 29, 2023 Posted August 29, 2023 Wonder if we can trade McDermott and Beane for Daboll and Schoen? 3 2 1 Quote
SectionC3 Posted August 29, 2023 Posted August 29, 2023 8 minutes ago, Coach Tuesday said: Beane has been tossing his 2nd round picks in the garbage since he became GM. Zay (busted here), Cody Ford, Boogie, Epenesa. So . . . Yeah. We may plop Elam on the discard list pretty soon, too. Quote
Roundybout Posted August 29, 2023 Posted August 29, 2023 Just now, Bleeding Bills Blue said: They also used the 2nd overall pick on zach wilson the year before. So they got an all-pro corner, a NOT all-pro WR who looks to be a good player, and a worthless QB. With More draft capital than buffalo has had if you combine probably the last 3 seasons if not more. They also threw away a pick on Denzel Mims and Becton is looking pretty poor. Quote

Stud corner in award and safety in Hufanga. Not to mention Hargrave and Armstead on in IDL. No one else has that many blue chippers. Quote

If 30% of 1st round draft choices fail, what do you think the odds are for 2nd rounders? Dude you're wasting your time. This is the same guy that 20 years ago would be wishing for this to be something to complain about. They want to sit there and complain as if we didn't win 13 games last year and the year before with a team that is built and built very well. Did he miss on a few picks? Sure.... but what about the Gabe Davis', Matt Milano's, Benford, Neal, Knox, etc etc etc ... He absolutely needs to be better in rounds 1 and 2, there's no doubt but hes far from a poor drafter. I believe I saw the Bills retain most of their picks beyond most in the league. 1 Quote

QB - Eagles RBs - 49ers WR - Eagles - It's close though OL - Eagles DL - 49ers - Also very close LB - 49ers DB - Eagles Pretty close - gotta give eagles an edge with Hurts though. Quote

Overager in the draft. Short arms. No bend. Not heavy enough to effectively play tackle in our scheme. Maybe he’s a 3-4 DE. I don’t know. I never got this one. Quote

GM hit on an elite QB and has an owner with some of the deepest pockets in the NFL. Beane is a good GM.. talented eye for Day 3 players and is solid in FA acquisitions/cap management, but these bad misses on premium draft picks are adding up. 5 1 Quote
