Can this OL block anyone?

OL being man-handled.

Super Bowl is very hard to get to. AFC is loaded with great QBs.

They don’t have the pass rushers to take advantage of Cincy line. Now, talk about a bad OL - that’s the Bills’ OL.

Only hope is a dropped pass

That isn’t happening. McDermott isn’t the one missing blocks on the OL and defense with no pass rush is a sitting duck against Cincy.

We can hope that Frazier gets a head coaching job…

This game is gonna be over quickly.

This defense is good in stats, not good in real play.

An entire week to game plan and the first play is to McKenzie? He should be the last option on all plays.

Who would the WR or OL be? As much as I would love a great WR prospect to pair with Diggs, I don’t think there will be one there unless they reach for a lesser outside prospect or are willing to draft a slot receiver in round 1. This is reportedly a weak WR draft class, though I really like Josh Downs, Zay Flowers and kind of like Parker Washington as slot options. Would have to take Downs in the first as he will be long gone before late 2nd. I don’t think Flowers will make it to late 2nd either, but Washington might. in terms of outside WR in late first, I don’t really see one, unless you like Rashee Rice.

I think their hands are going to be severely tied by cap in FA. Anyone they can sign is likely a low-end FA.

You might see them take an OT in they first. At least based on some reading, it looks like a lackluster draft for C and G. There are a few, but PFF currently thinks 5 IOL are worth picking before day 3.

Agree in general. Offense needs more help - especially WR and IOL. I think there will be good slot receiver options at end of first and maybe late 2nd. Outside receivers looks like a pretty weak class, but still a long way to go in evaluating the prospects. I’ve read some who believe there are only 5 or so IOL players worthy of 1st or 2nd day picks.

But the draft is much less loaded at WR and OL - particularly G and C for first round talent.

RB might be the most dependent position. Without adequate blocking and other threats (passing weapons) and schemes to draw defenses’ attention and fool them, a RB can be neutralized. This is pretty true of many positions, but I think a bit more true for RB. Not opposed to drafting a great RB prospect, but I think improving the OL and providing more passing threats that spread defenders thin can also help the run game. At present, I don’t think the OL is solid enough that an investment in a high-end RB is warranted without a plan to also address the OL. Overall offensive weaponry allows every aspect of the offense to be better than the individual parts.

This doesn’t appear to be a draft where they will find a first round value at WR late in round 1. It is still early yet for prospect evaluations, so possible for that to change, but right now I’m not sure this is a strong year for WR, unless you are looking for a slot guy - Zay Flowers and Josh Downs both are interesting and Parker Washington could be pretty good, too.

Coach badly?

I don’t care that they stopped them. This aren’t winning the next game against a NFL QB. On to the draft.

Gave this game away.

No pass rush.

Yes, they have been exposed. Good, not great team.

Awful choke.

One and done. Doesn’t really matter, this team isn’t beating Bengals or Chiefs in the playoffs.

Terrible.
