Daboll will be a head coach somewhere in the NFL next season and Trubisky will be his starting QB!! Think about it what better way to groom you future QB for whatever team he may be coaching then using JA to show Trubisky the ropes of your offense without getting on the field. Daboll will be coaching a Trubisky led team in one of the following locations IMO:
LV Raiders: I don't think this is what the Mark Davis envisioned when hiring Chucky and Mayock when he hired them. Mayock has messed up a couple of draft classes and once he gets fired here I can't see him going back to the Draft show he once hosted on NFL network. Chucky has always been over rated in my eyes....he was a better game day host them head coach. Carr although good at times, reminds me of a poor mans Andy Dalton and the reason why I say poor man's Andy Dalton is because at least Dalton could get his teams to the playoffs. The Raiders are also in the same division as the Chiefs as we know and they need to score points to match the Chiefs..and that isn't going to happen on a consistent basis without a mobile QB with a gun who can sling it. The Chargers will be no push over either.
Minn Vikings: What better way for Trubisky to become a starting QB again other then in the same division as the team that dumped you and haunt them for the next 8 to 10 years. I don't think Zimmer makes it though the season this year and Cousins isn't taking them anywhere....ever. Cousins is a glorified back-up QB and a rich one at that. Daboll coming in there with Trubisky will be great for that offense and poised to take over the division again for a good run IMO.
or
Houston Texans: Yes the Texans are in a bad spot right now. Once they trade away D. Watson they will have a ton of draft picks and nowhere to go but up. I think Daboll would take this job if the contract is good and he has a say in everything that goes on within the team but not the final word. I don't think it ever works out where the coach is also the GM...and don't mention the Patriots because Cheating Bill is an over rated GM who caught lighting in a bottle with TB12 who made Bill look good while QBing a team with a lot of bad rosters. I think this team needs to do what the Bills did when Sean and McBean got to town and clean house and rebuild. I don't know who would take this job though it kind of reminds me of the Browns and Us a few years ago...a place where head coaching dreams went to die. But both franchises seemed to figure it out so maybe Daboll can take that experience and build the Texans.
But this won't happen because all the coaching jobs will be filled before Daboll get's a chance to accept one because the Bills will be playing in the SB. Go Bills!!
Daboll may get hired even though the Bills are going at least to the AFC title game again. And he may sign Tribusky.
And if he goes, he is definitely taking assistant O-line coach Ryan Wendell. Just as long as Daboll doesn't poach Chad Hall, Ken Dorsey or Bobby Johnson we might be OK. If he becomes HC and hires Chad Hall as OC the Bills are in trouble, imho.... There's going to be growing pains there. I thought Hall was ahead of Dorsey as Hall gets a lot of good press since his hire. He's a real hard worker like Daboll.....
This offseason is a huge one. With Jerry, Addison and Star coming off the books and AJ, Groot And Basham gaining valuable experience.... I hope our coaching staff doesn't get too devastated.

Could Mitch Tribusky become a brand new type of QB in the NFL?
More of a 1-B so we remove wear and tear and avoid injury to our #1?
I mean things like mopping up games a little earlier than in the past or possibly giving him starts vs. the jets and Falcons at the end of the year?
Maybe?
Josh took a lot of hits mopping up Miami, etc..... I think Mitch could do that (mop up the fish) .
Yes, it sez here we sweep the East once again. Our competition is much better especially in NE and Miami but we are much more mature and prepared to handle upstarts missing key components.... (see: QB). I think the Bills are ALSO better this year. Along the offensive and defensive lines particularly. On O, LG will be upgraded no matter who the starter is he will be better than last season. Our new(er) OL will also learn how to run block more effectively over the summer AND we are already superb pass blockers (could be better at LG).

Yeah, it's gonna be tough to choose who rounds out the group. It really depends on how Stevenson and Hodgins progress through camp/preseason.
Stevenson grabbed a deep ball from Fromm where he got good separation. If he keeps doing that, it's gonna be hard to try to hide him on the PS.
Stevenson is going to fall victim to an unfortunate accident fairly soon.....

Looks like plenty of room still left on the roster for Ertz. 😉
Yes!!!!! Ertz is another blue-chip offensive player that can keep the O moving if (when) we run into injuries.
I have my doubts about our TE room and our bottom WRs if we were to call upon him under the big lights.
(then again, I'm not exactly sure Ertz can still do that.)
The point is last season we absolutely ran out of weapons and failed Josh. You just don't do nothing the following season and hope for the best; you build depth. Some will say we signed Sanders and that is sort of an upgrade I agree because JB was really out most of last season. So it is an upgrade. However, Diggs, Sanders, and Beasley don't strike me as the most iron men we could get. One could even argue that the reason we have them is because they are slender. With Beasley and Sanders anyway. Don't get me wrong, I'm proud to have them both and I think Sanders is our true #2 WR this year, he is very good. I just don't want to run out of weapons again..... Maybe Beane takes a close look at our current TEs and bottom receivers over the course of preseason and determines we have the guys we need. That we could replace a Beasley if need be. Or a Sanders? Maybe both? I don't think we could really replace Diggs as he is our money man. I think every great offense has players they cannot lose....
Does anyone think the Bills season could go on to the Super Bowl minus Diggs?
I also wanted to mention I have this sneaking suspicion that we are going to miss Daboll more than most think.
I think the wide-open TDs might go away without him..... He definitely schemes most of them..... Although you have to credit Diggs for attracting so much coverage. Beasley at times draws a steady double (once Allen hits him a couple times.)
It seems Daboll stays away from Beasley often I think Daboll doesn't want to tempt fate with injuries. He is just so small.
Beasley can beat almost anyone fairly easily one on one....with today's rules it is just so easy for a guy like Beasley super, super lightning quick. Beasley simply reacts to the DB feet and goes the other way and it is too late for him to recover, Beasley is open by five yards. He is a great modern day slot WR. Sanders is more valuable to me as he can get open playing on the line. That's a lot harder to do. When we go four-wide this year and if we iron out our OL deficiencies we should absolutely lay waste to all defenses in the league. Put Singletary or Moss in the backfield....let 'er rip! That 4-wide ought to really kick-ass between the twenties anyway. Josh will also get his fair share of TDs from outside the red zone as well. It could be Davis, Sanders or Diggs going deep. Knowing Daboll, it could even be Beasley. Beasley gets some deep passes from Allen from time to time. I don't think many TDs though....maybe this year?
I still haven't rewatched the AFC title game and I still feel reluctant to do so....

I was doing an early projection of the 53 man roster for myself, and I was shocked how easy it was to find myself keeping 10 DLinemen. McBeane typically have a history of keeping 8 DL, but I would not at all be surprised to see 9 or 10 this year.
QB: Allen, Trubisky
RB: Singletary, Moss, Breida, Jones
WR: Diggs, Beasley, Davis, Sanders, Mckenzie, Hodgins
TE: Knox, Hollister, Gilliam
OL: Dawkins, Williams, Morse, Ford, Feliciano, Boettger, Brown, Doyle, Lamp, Bates
DE: Hughes, Epenesa, Rosseau, Basham, Addison, Johnson
DT: Oliver, Star, Harry, Butler
LB: Edmunds, Milano, Klein, Dodson, Matakevich, Adams
CB: Tre, Wallace, Johnson, Jackson, Neal, Wildgoose
S: Hyde, Poyer, Johnson
ST: Haack, Bass, FergusonNotable Cuts/PS/Trades: Antonio Williams, Christian Wade, Marquez Stevenson, Tommy Sweeney, Bobby Hart, Efe Obada (would really like to see Obada make the team), Justin Zimmer, Cam Lewis, Duke Williams, Jake Kumerow
What does your guys early roster projections look like?
Stevenson will get IRed for certain, watch. I say A Williams makes the roster as the 3rd RB and standout STer. Wade goes to our normal IR so we can call him up. I really want Obada too but how? If Sweeney can play STs he can make it although he might get Henderson's spot as well. I think Bates HAS to make the team so you're right on there. But Bills May carry only nine, look for another Injury along the line for the rookies..... Maybe the Bills try to put Dodson on the PS and go with five LBs and carry Obada?
I hope we get to put a good WR on the PS for injuries....the kid we got from Dallas is pretty accomplished.....
Do the Bills make one big move for their Super Season run?
Maybe our TE room doesn't look so bad with Sweeney on it? He was a very good do everything TE in college, but it is way different in the pros, is he finally ready? Did Lee rub off on him and teach him how to block? I think we can run more offense being harder to prepare for had we a TE that could really block well plus catch. Sweeney was projected to be a #2 TE. To be just that. A blocking TE that can catch. A Lee Smith with a little more speed and athleticism. Although you don't need that much athleticism to go sit in a zone. Maybe in the playoffs when defenses try to take away everything. I hope Sweeney can make the jump. He could also be useful when we go up 21 and put our back up QB in to ice the game..... Run, pass, run.....to take what the D gives short. I think we could use Mitch something like this.... Huge difference between Tribusky and last season's QB..... We need to get Josh to the playoffs healthy. Maybe Josh doesn't even play vs. Atlanta?
Rest the big man.....

The D line absolutely has to take a major step forward.
The problem with Groot is he seems too tall. It seems that he will always cede the lower pad level to the defender. Does he have speed and bend to use his length to his advantage? I hope so but we shall see.I certainly get what you're saying. Are you a Chris Jones DT KC fan? I'm not a fan, I hate KC but Chris Jones is a blue DT. Do you know his hgt. and Wgt.? He is 6'6" 310#. The guy is just a monster vs. the run and pass and I think he is why the chefs are better than we are. Groot 6'6" 290# could easily gain 20 by next season. He is also used to (as much as anything else at least) rushing from the interior. Maybe he plays both for us maybe he moves to tackle. Maybe Boogie does too? Who knows? But if Chris Jones can be a feared pass rusher (and great run defender) Maybe Groot Can too. At his age and position experience level, he could become just about anything. Tight end? Who knows? The qualities I think he has are: he's tough I have heard (hard worker, etc.) He's huge (That is a given) He is a rare athlete. Especially for his size. I think he is a perfect lump of clay for our supposedly great coaches. (Frazier, McD, our DL coach, our LB coach, we have a lot of great D coaches supposedly.)
Hopefully, Tremaine, Ed, AJ, Groot and Boogie really shine this fall. I don't expect a ton from the rookies, but everyone else. From the rookies, I want to see glimpses of great talent. Especially from Groot even though he is exceedingly raw. I think he is smart and a hard worker so if he is special athletically we should see it....
But back to getting a pass rusher, I agree that for the most part, I think it is shorter guys that excel. Or, at least, we should have a young, squat, speed guy on the roster like Jerry Hughes. We'll see....
With Jerry, Star and Addison coming off the payroll this year perhaps we can sign an impact veteran defender? And maybe draft another DL in the first two rounds?
We have to keep an eye on O always though as well as JA needs protection and weapons that get open. We'll see what we have this year (from the last three drafts) and act accordingly next draft.

Oh no I don’t think Kumerow is a lock at all. But he may get the nod over Hodgins because of special teams play if the last spot is between them two.
I was more referring to a couple comments about cutting Taiwan Jones who I totally understand takes a roster spot us fans would like to use for Breida or another receiver or something on gameday. But I think Taiwan is a lock to make the team, I also think there’s going to be intense battles on this message board if Moss, motor and Jones are active every week and Breida sits like Yeldon.Maybe Antonio Williams can solve the argument??? He played STs in college for certain, so he might be pretty good at that plus he looked fantastic vs. Miam...... I'm rooting for another Williams to make the Bills for sure. He might be another Fredddy who knows? I like him, a lot.
i would look to trade Moss if I can get a third and a sixth, and go with Singletary (He's the best first down back of the bunch and I think he gets his 5.1 again to lead the league. (Pretty bold, huh?)
Williams becomes change of pace plus short yardage. Breida becomes a guy Daboll draws up TD plays for, and Wade goes to the regular PS where he can be called up when needed. If we can't get what I want for Moss we obviously keep him and Breida doesn't make it and hopefully all three play RB and STs and I'm telling you, Moss has zero problem playing STs either. I just don't know if he would be too useful?

To open camp today, Kansas City sent out the 1st team OL and that consisted of:
LT Orlando Brown
LG Joe Thuney
C Creed Humphrey
RG Trey Smith
RT Mike Remmers
The bolded are rookies. I've mentioned it a coupled times here and there since the draft. Trey Smith is going to prove to be the steal of this entire draft. Nothing but glowing reports on this guy since he showed up. Reid is usually not the biggest fan of putting rookies in the starting lineup...but even today on day 1 of camp, Reid gave yet another strong assessment of Smith.
Of course it's still early, and I don't want to discount my Chiefs bias as I report this...so there is that...but being as objective as I can...the very early returns on the rebuilt line and the rookies on it....Smith in particular....is very good.
5th Round TE Noah Gray out of Duke is getting alot of attention and making alot of plays.
Last years second round LB Willie Gay reported to have had a great day 1 of camp....and was out with the "ones"
I am NOT a KC whatsoever but you have to respect how they do things. They do seem a step ahead of McBeane and it is questionable how much better the abills can be this year. Did we draft defense well? How good are Tremaine, Ed, AJ, Groot and Boogie going to be? What the Bills need are true blue-chippers to emerge out of this group and to date we have none, imho out that group. We did draft White & JA two major blue chippers but SuperBowl teams always have more than two.
I do like that Groot is a total wildcard. I'm not certain anyone knows his floor or ceiling, but I take solace in that. Had Groot put together another year like he had in 2019 we would have NEVER got him. I really hope he is our blue chipper. I have hopes for AJ and Boogie as well though I really don't understand how they're going to turn into feared pass rushers when I think of feared pass rushers I think of shorter, faster players like Von Miller But we'll see.... Gigantic Reggie White was pretty damn good, too.

Don’t think Stillers are nearly as dangerous as Washington. That WFT D Line is Scary Good.
We all know when Fitz is on he is good too. WFT is a team I have no ill feelings about.
I really like Rivera. He’s a class act.I have them about even. While wtf may have the best DL, Pittsburgh is right up there with Watt (he's really an end) and Heyward two solid blue chippers. Last time we played we had some troubles on O and Pittsburgh had a lot of LBs out.
They'll be healthy this time and looking to upset. I'm glad it is in bufffalo and that I feel, no defense is prepared for our four-wide with elusive JA back there. Our not so secretweapons.

So all I have really taken from these comments is
A) Is there that much interest and urgency in flipping Kumerow for a late round pick?
B) We have had Mcdermott here awhile now, do we think he’s all of a sudden changed? Special teams players have been a huge part of his roster building every year and I don’t think that’ll change this year. I don’t know much about Hodgins outside hearing his catch radius is crazy good but Kumerow plays special teams and has been quite good at the dirty work some receivers don’t like doing.This is our most talented roster under McD that is for sure. You're absolutely right about our emphasis on STs but given more competition (we never had a really deep roster before) it will be interesting to see what we do. Are you intimating Kumerow is a lock due to his ST play? I gotta admit I didn't notice or forgot Kumerow on STs. Was he noticeable?
Talk about this problem it is going to come to a head at DE with Daryl Johnson an excellent STer and not really getting better at DE.... Man, what are we going to do along the whole DL?! Carry 12? LOL, Talk about keeping guys for STs .... I don't know how effective our DL can be on STs? I hope next year we are great along the DL. Hoping AJ, Ed, Boogie And Groot are solid keepers and with Addison, Star, and Jerry coming off the books Beane can add an impact player perhaps?
And we draft another DL.... We could be dominant there with any luck (and skill).
Are we going to catch the chefs eventually? Look at Tremaine, Ed, AJ, Boogie And Groot. Can Beane draft?
We'll See....
I just read Peter King say we reached for Groot but 2 or 3 DL went right after Groot. We just started the run but we had better of gotten the best one.

Make the team... we need his skill set imo
We have so much talent in the bottom of our WR room but I don't know if any of them could be even a #3 in the NFL....
They are right there at the fringe of that (#3) I think.....But who knows? Gotta give them a chance.
We have Stevenson, Lenoir, Kumerow and Hodgins that all offer tempting nfl level talent, imho. Gentry maybe too?
I think Hodgins has that classic NFL size and athleticism that perhaps he could be a star. Stevenson is 2" bigger than McKenzie but offers similar speed and quickness (I think). Kumerow doesn't have those long arms or athleticism and jumping ability but he has more experience....If both were to make it you couldn't call Buffalo WRs tiny anymore with Davis, Kumerow and Hodgins. Especially if they actually played Kumerow and Hodgins. I think we play all our weapons under Daboll though and as aside, I think we miss Daboll when he's gone more than anyone realizes. I don't know if our underlings understand exactly what Daboll does. Or if they are willing to put in all the film work. Do they know what they are looking for? I sure hope do but I have reservations....

Who the hell is our back up LOT?
With Nsekhe gone I have no idea.
Are we starting the rookie Brown at LT?
Are we jumbling our line? Moving Williams to left (he hates that!) and starting Brown at right?
This easily could turn into a big trouble spot for our boys in blue this fall. Can Brown play as a rookie?
Jery Hughes embarrassed Becton on the Jets.
Speaking of Hughes, why haven't we drafted a Jerry Hughes clone yet? You know, someone that can actually hit the QB?

Fitz throwing dimes for the WTFs. He looks good in the maroon and gold.
They could be a very tough out, along with Pittsburgh. Two very good D's....
Neither team might not be able to deal with Daboll and healthy our four-wide though....
We really haven't seen our four-wide up and healthy yet....and Davis is a rookies e no more.
Look out for Sanders tearing it up for us....
But both Washington and the stealers have defenses to be weary of....and QBs that could get hot.
Washington could easily be a playoff team.... Fitz! In the playoffs! Look out!

I didn't arch the video but it is an interesting idea to view JA as a glitch in the matrix. While this Bills team is good, it's just another 6-10 to 10-6 team that weare do used to.

He is Neo.

Training camp starts tomorrow and we're a month away from the Bills 53-man roster being set. Post your bold predictions here.
I'll start with two of my own:
1) After the obvious quartet of Diggs, Sanders, Beasley, and Davis, the last 2 WRs to make the team will be Hodgins and Stevenson. McKenzie will be a surprise cut.
2) Cody Ford will be traded for a 4th or 5th round pick near the end of training camp. Forrest Lamp will take his spot on the roster.
I think your predictions are indeed bold. I sure hope you're wrong about Ford, we need a great LG and I think Ford offers the most potential there as we zone-block I think we'd prefer a big, tough hombre there. I hope he stays, starts and prospers and Ford is a thing that helps us take another step towards beating KC.
The other prediction however might portend to good news! We know McKenzie has talent and that the game is NOT too big for him. His problem comes when other WRs can't draw coverage away from him. He knows the offense and has learned a ton from Brian Daboll and our fine WRs coach. This makes him pretty valuable to us regardless of the shortcomings. If we were to have two young, unproven WRs good enough to knock McKenzie off the roster, that would indeed be very good news. They would have to be very talented to do so, imho. Daboll and the WR coach would have a lot of work cut out for them getting the young pups up to speed. But if they're both clearly better, it's worth it.
For my predictions I'll go with Antonio Williams making the team and also playing on some weeks. He also becomes our short yardage specialist. As a small bonus prediction, I say the Bills decide to put C. Wade on the standard practice squad vs. the special one so we can call him up if needed.
My second bold prediction is that we trade Moss (not Singletary). The reason is two-fold: Moss has more value and Singletary is the better back. I say we trade Moss for a fair third round choice (and that it will be higher than the third we used to pick Moss.) and a sixth as interest. So a third and a sixth. This will give Beane some ammo for the '22 draft if he really needs somebody (although I think he's learning to stay put or to usually
6 hours ago, HappyDays said:We almost let him walk in free agency. I think they're ready to live without him. Hodgins offers size and ball skills and has gotten some buzz this offseason. I predict Stevenson makes the team because Beane rarely cuts new draft picks and he can take on McKenzie's role. If Stevenson doesn't show anything in training camp then McKenzie is probably safe and they'll try and put Stevenson on the PS.
I was Surprised no one offered McKenzie enough to make him want to change cities. The guy had 8 or 9 NFL TDs for cripe's sake!
So I was happy we could retain a guy we spent a lot of time and effort into training how to do all these things. He had TDs three different ways! I'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth and I'm going to happy we get him for another year. Things are going to go the way they always do. McKenzie will be the fifth, gradually losing snaps to Hodgins who will run totally different types of plays to give DCs nightmares. Stevenson is going to have a timely injury to land him on the IR where he is free of pouching. There, he will learn all the stuff McKenzie already knows (While McKenzie learns more!)
and Stevenson is going to train, train, train that body to learn not get injured. It is tons of hard work and discipline and if he can do both. Learn while getting a lot stronger yet more flexible (the Bills way, thank you Pegulas) he can compete for a real job next year. He makes himself WAY more valuable to us that way. He makes himself way more valuable to other teams as well.

trade down not up in a draft.)
So our RB room will look like Singletary - Antonio Williams - Breida. With Wade on the PS ready to call up.
Singletary - is your first down back ready to gain 5.1 yds./pop.
A.W. - A Williams through and through. Bigger and better than Moss at being a Moss like back. He proves he can block in preseason.
Breida - we're going to actually use Breida and Daboll knows exactly how to use the kid for big plays and making a defense very nervous. Breida has a comeback year of sorts. All three backs are used, all three stay fresh and healthy. (Though there will be weeks one back is not active).
So, there you have it. Two and half predictions. All in the RB room.

Mayfield & Jackson will never strike fear in me. And when Kelce and Hill slow down the conference will be ours.
The Bills need to do three things: first we have to start Billieving we can beat the chefs. To me, it appears McD thinks he is not good enough. Number two we have to out-maneuver the chefs on the managerial front. Diggs, Sanders And Beasley are going to get old too; whichever team replaces their talent better should win. And three we have to catch up to the chefs. They are a slightly better team than we are now. We are very close though.... Imho, we are one Chris Jones away from the chefs. Give us Chris Jone and take him away from the Chefs and we should beat them, imho. Although we also need to overcome issue #1 in advance of that game. While Chris Jones is only one player he is a good one. And to have him go from the chefs to the Bills isreally like two players have been changed. But that is the difference between the two teams, imho.
Now, that isn't to say we couldn't beat them this year. If Chris Jones gets hurt and Groot is as good as he looked at Miami two years ago were even that fast. Football is a lot more complicated than that but I do think we could beat them. Do I think it is going to happen in week five? No, probably not, but let's play the game anyway cause you know, that ball bounces weird and stuff. The Bills lost to the giants about 30 years ago and that one should have never happened but did so you have to play the game.

While Allen vs. Diggs is definitely a chicken and egg question, the obvious answer is who cares?!
We have both and for a long damn time.
It clearly isn't just Diggs as Brown was awesome last year, Beasley two years and Davis one. And Sanders is going to rip it up as our #2 this year. The four of them (Diggs, Sanders, Beasley and Davis) are going to be electric with JA leading them behind our OL this year! Watch out for the Bills, baby! If we get Ertz we'd have a fifth weapon. Without Ertz, maybe Knox maturesthis year? Maybe other Bills step up more? I'm sure Daboll will makeHodgins a Star If Hodgins has the talent, Daboll will find a way to make him shine and put less wear and tear on the top four. We have to get to the playoffs with that top four! I think we even might be able to beat the chefs but our defense will have had to improve some from last year's playoff performance as well. It could happen with Star, Boogie and Groot added plus AJ hitting year two. But the chefs are good, man. We'll see in week five if McD has a plan or not. (He seemed to have no idea of how to play the chefs in our last two or three meetings. But with more skill comes more confidence..... I think McD has to stop idolizing the chefs coach tottart.
Go Bills!

As far as Cleveland goes you can argue about the rosters but it is close and the most important position is QB and I think the Bills have it; hands down.
Not only that but we're the only team that has Stephon Diggs. This is another huge advantage.
Cleveland's lines may be better than our but the important thing to know about Buffalo's OL is it is superb at protecting Allen. That's what counts as far as Buffalo goes.
And while it is very important to have the lines, the Bills have better LBs and a better secondary to boot.
Buffalo can stop even the Browns run game if it is the playoffs and Cleveland will be out of the run game soon anyhow when Allen scores TDs. Do not let Allen's playoff sort of slump fool you, Buffalo's important skill players were all injured, all of them! Even Brady stinks when you take away his skill against playoff caliber defenses. And Allen was missing his #2 most of last season, maybe the whole season it could be said as Brown was often just a decoy. Watch Allen if he gets to go fourwide this year with a healthy Diggs, Sanders, Beasley and Davis. We are definitely going to be electrifying. Better than last season; watch.
Go Bills!

Maybe Beane looked at everything very closely and thinks the Bills are not ready to dethrone the chefs? Our offseason certainly reflects that as the Bills while looking improved (Sanders vs. injured Smoke, and we added the whole draft w/o really losing anybody of value but our KR/PR.) still don't matchup vs. the chefs very well.
I think perhaps Beane is looking to next season when our young defense will have more experience (Tremaine and Ed, but especially AJ, Groot, Basham And others while Jerry, Addison, and star come off the books....
Can Star, Groot And Basham really raise the level of our defense this year???!!!
Can our talent remain healthy for the playoffs????!!! Diggs, Sanders, Beasley, Davis, McKenzie and the sixth?
Do we sign Ertz giving us one more big chip? I hope yes, but I didn't look at the books closely for next season. Maybeif we don't sign him this year we can add a blue chip defender (a pass rusher) when one becomes available?
Can Knox take a huge step? You gotta give him an attaboy for trying as hard as Allen does.
Could Allen be even better than last year???? I think he can. Fine tune the line title things while gaining even more confidence in himself; becoming nearly unstoppable with the modern rules and his good teammates.
These are the big questions for this year and some for next....
but think about next season with our OL still in tact, AJ, Groot and Boogie coming into their own. Another draft to draft. Star, Jerry and Addison coming off the books. That's a ton of cash.... Gotta replace Star but still.
We need a DT, CB, for the D and maybe for the O a RB, and WR (probably). Maybe a star pass rusher still but maybe not?
We have this whole very exciting year to play; I concede nothing to anybody. We have Josh Allen perhaps still on a upwards arc and no one does.
But next season promises to be equally exciting. (I sure hope we drafted well!)
Go Bills!

Tied with SF at +1200.
Behind the favorites KC at +450 and TB at +700.
Should be another fantastic year to be a Bills fan...
Holy *****! SF is good, but sooooo many question marks. They're a clear notch below the Bills, imho.
i have the Bills all alone at three as the third seed.
i have the whole NFC West, GB, Baltimore, Tennessee, And Cleveland tied at the #4 seed.
Why are the Bills alone at three?
Josh Allen......
And!
his whole offense....the line and the skill..... the pass blue Viking is superb and our skill room is top five in the NFL.
and while we're not good at RB we are clearly not bad either......Mark my words.....The run game will be better in 2021. It will be more effective. Daboll is going to work it, work it, work it; fix it.
Go Bills!

Is KR/PR too much for a non-dedicated man? Is McAkenzie big enough to handle both?
Can the Bills be better on STs this year?
Maybe. It will be exciting....
