another one, more offense this time: 30. Buffalo Bills Javonte Williams RB, North Carolina 62. Buffalo Bills Brevin Jordan TE, Miami 93. Buffalo Bills Hamsah Nasirildeen S, Florida State 160. Buffalo Bills Bobby Brown III IDL, Texas A&M 173. Buffalo Bills Amari Rodgers WR, Clemson 210. Buffalo Bills DJ Daniel CB, Georgia

Today's draft with no trades. Happy to upgrade OL and DL, but missed out on LB and a more impactful offensive player. Overall a good draft if we address LB in FA, which seems unlikely. 30. Buffalo Bills Jalen Mayfield OT, Michigan 62. Buffalo Bills Carlos Basham Jr. EDGE, Wake Forest 93. Buffalo Bills Alim McNeill IDL, NC State 160. Buffalo Bills Kylin Hill RB, Mississippi State 173. Buffalo Bills Shaka Toney EDGE, Penn State 210. Buffalo Bills Trill Williams CB, Syracuse

I think this mentorship of Allen thing is overblown. It seems like most of our marginal veteran offensive players "mentored" Allen. Lee, Barkley, etc. I'm sure we can replace Lee with someone who can help Allen, to the extent he continues to need it beyond the QB Coach/OC. Henry had Gates ahead of him, which led his breakout year being later. I'm fine with Knox as a receiver, but his blocking is horrid.

hey, enough piling on the OP. Guy trying to come up with something fun trade wise in the offseason, and all you wise-guys show up! I think we'd have to trade our 1st for the other Josh Allen. I'd do a 1st and 6th for him. I think he'd be great here. He did have a down year last year then got hurt. It's a gamble a bit for both teams.

2nd round tender is barley more than right of refusal. I'd do that.

i'm not sure if the ownership (Ralph) was the issue. I think a series of incompetent GM's was more the issue. Since Marty never got another HC job after Washington, it appears there was more than just Ralph uncomfortable with him coaching again, for whatever reason.

that's interesting. Wonder why Ralph didn't like him? Gailey was not a bad hire, terrible talent on those teams. Also, Schottenheimer's son likely turned down the interview because his Dad wanted the job. I'm not sure if Marty could have turned the Bills around in 2010. Such poor talent/drafting.

Backup QB is important. Anyone here remember Super Bowl 25?? Or the Greatest Comeback game. ? I’m not sure if Barkley is it or not, but the backup needs to be able to step-in with some competency in the offense.

yep. And a RB. agree. I think we get OL help from the draft and keep our current guys. Edge or big nickel could come from FA. this is a great point.

I think you need to put someone on Kelce for sure, and perhaps even hill. Maul them at the LOS where you are allowed to bump the receiver. You simply cannot allow either of these two to have clean breaks. Mess up the timing a bit, and hope that someone on the front 7 gets to the QB. I disagree with this. White is strong enough to handle press, so is Jackson. Wallace might be also. Poyer is. And have Edmunds or Milano press Kelce. I mean, esp. in the KC game, we needed to press Hill with a CB. Hill is not a "big" guy. The D is soft zone because that's what Frazier and/or McD love, and it's going to get them killed against KC.

KC also has CEH. We are missing the 3rd part of a "big 3" on offense, as well as a great front 7 player like KC has. I think we can get the RB in the draft, so we have Josh, Diggs, and RB; and then grab a DT/DE in FA. KC will still be tough to beat every year for the reason you said. Those 3 always give them a chance to win.

I think we had a really good draft class. Interestingly, the class seemingly has more impact players AFTER the third round. Epensea is a ? at this point, Moss was trending very well before his injury and is likely the starter on paper next season who will compete with a rookie/FA; Gabe Davis looked like a 2nd round WR at worst; Bass looks like a pro-bowl kicker, and Dane Jackson looks like a legit CB 2 from the limited play he's been given.

I also like walter football, but the amount of ads/lag time is really annoying. drafttek.com is also great.

I'll play. Answers above.

this is perhaps true, but we don't have many "elite/top dollar" defensive players.

nice. Depth is important.

Not sure that AFC Championship game helped him. He's an above-average LB, albeit replaceable. How many of those tackles were TFL?

if MCD didn’t think the offense can convert the TD’s against the worst red zone defense he needs a new OC, and if he also thinks his soft zone D will stop KC’s offense at that point in the game he’s simply hoping. the only way to beat a more talented team is out execute it, out coach it, and be smartly aggressive. The Bills did none of these things.

KC is dirty they should appeal the fines. they appear arbitrary and capricious given that like (or more egregious) conduct was not also fines.

not a terrible idea, but I don’t think the players or fans would want the “moral victory” of finishing 3rd, so I cant’t see much interest in the game.

I lime this topic. And thanks for the draft info and highlight video. I’m all for Bold moves, but McKenzie will replace Roberts. Singletary is a decent RB 3, (after draft pick and Moss), but he may face competition from Williams. I wouldn’t cut him, however.

I’d keep Hughes, Addison and Hyde.

the TE writeup is somewhat alarming. What does everyone think of going after Everett from LA? Seems to flash, albeit inconsistently for whatever reason.

Priority/players I want back: McKenzie: this is Robert’s special teams replacement, and is a great gadget player on offense. Just need to remind Daboll that we have him in the playoffs! D. Williams: this will help solidify the Right Tackle position. As OP noted, Ford is not the answer. J. Feliciano: while I’m underwhelmed with his play in the AFC Championship game, he is a great backup at the very least as a G/C. C. Bojorquez. Seemed more dependable this year. Ability to flip the field is tremendous and saves us from having other teams start within FG range. L. Wallace. Fits in well with this D. Provides a decent CB2 range/backup CB. Nice/$$ Dependent: Barkely. Would like him back. Good to have a vet backup QB, although I’m not opposed to brining in a better vet backup. Likely that Jake is the long term backup solution. Milano: would like him back. D is better with him, but he’s not irreplaceable. His injury history makes him likely to be affordable. He totally vanished against KC in terms of impact plays. D. Marlowe: great as a backup safety. B. Winters. Good as OL depth. Ty N. Good OL depth. Cut/Use Cap Space for other FA Acquisitions: Josh Norman Andre Roberts Trent Murphy (he was great against Balt, then was inactive v. KC, which is puzzling). Tyler Kroft. (I’d actually like him back, but since the coaching staff has forgotten he exists, his cap money is better spent on an impact DL/DE) TJ Yeldon (same as Kroft, plus, I’m hoping we draft a RB that can catch, hit the hole, and you know, be put into the lineup by the coaching staff) Andre Smith. Likely we draft a LB or get another one in FA that makes him expendable.

I like the idea of acquiring Watt. he may be on the downside, and that should be reflected in his contract, but he's still better than our current talent. Also, AJ could learn from one of the best. I love the idea of getting Watt and Tomlinson in FA. Solve DT/DE and then you can draft one, but don't "have to".
