‘Beane deserves credit for tearing Buffalo’s roster down after a playoff appearance in 2017. It would have been easy to stick with the roster that did enough to sneak into the playoffs, but the GM knew that the roster needed to be overhauled from top to bottom so that the team could be financially healthy long-term. It didn’t take long for Beane to right the ship in that regard. Of course, Beane is going to have some tough decisions ahead in the next few years when it comes to re-signing young talent already on the roster, but he has put the team in a place where it can retain its best talent.’
