I could see the Chiefs offense being around 10th best while Bills would be bottom 10. Correct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like he's a tweener type, OLB/end in a 3-4 scheme. He's going to be asked to go straight ahead, IMO...he just doesn't have the lateral agilty/quickness to be a dropping in coverage. But he might turn out OK, in that role. Goof luck to him, pretty sure Shoen was very high on him (recalling post draft interviews/limited videos of draftroom excitement) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills wouldn't be bottom 10. They were ranked #22 with Tyrod Taylor at QB and Rick Dennison as OC and very little offensive talent. This team isn't worst than 2017. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) Outside of the Beane stuff I think that Basham was a versatile player who started to come into his own as the season progressed last year. I think I would have rolled the dice on Basham than AJE. He definitely was not living up to his draft status, but he seemed to start contributing. I wish him the best, but if the Giants get good production out of him and Hodgins I will be salty. So to that extent, a small part of me hopes he doesn't work out for them.

balln Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Basham in two years has a total of 5 TFL and 4.5 sacks. 2 years. Has like 37 tackles total. That’s solo + assisted. He sucks! Stop with the “he’s really coming along!” Crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chiefs have the coaching capable of bolstering their Offense and scheming them into over-performing. Not so much with the Bills. Not sure about bottom 10, but I'd say definitely bottom half.

Kinda like Elam. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralonzo Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) 3 hours ago, No_Matter_What said: My guess is 6th, hoping for 5th. And I guess he could be worth 5th given his abilities/contract, so not that unrealistic. I'd hope for a 5th for Boogie and a 7th since between him and AJE, a) Boogie played better in preseason, and b) he has an additional year of team control.

If we didn’t have Josh Allen, we would most likely have another quarterback like Carr. We wouldn’t be starting Kyle Allen. We would be about 9-8.

Who disagrees? The offense is Diggs...hopefully this Kincaid/Knox thing works out...and not much else. WRs and RBs are the definition of average paired with a shakey OL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 3 hours ago, thenorthremembers said: There is one HR a GM can hit..one. And thats drafting a franchise QB. He hit the HR already. This is really the simple reality of drafting. Unless you have the difference maker at the most important position in sports, it’s gonna be a struggle. There are HOFers who’ve never sniffed a ring because they languished on teams without a QB to get them there. Drafting JA is one thing, but I give Beane more credit for maneuvering from pick 22 to pick 7 in order to get him, especially because he didn’t give up any future first round picks to do so. That took some doing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess one could argue who the QB2 was, but I think it speaks more to the rest of the offense on the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're 12-15 with an above average QB. As good as I think Reid is, it took a supreme talent in Mahomes before he won.
