We know how you feel

If both teams are 💯 healthy. I would think KC wins. the same was said when we signed Von. Everyone and their mothers said the Bills were the team to beat. And we were. Until injuries (and more).

Did obj sign with the jets?

We put the guy that we knew wouldn’t come down with the contested catch back there. Gabe

He’s already been hired, minus the title.

Seems like they do. not like it means anything, but Joe Marino said that he thinks this is what we’ll go into the regular season with - plus one developmental draft pick. more and more I want us to select Anton Harrison. He’s really good in pass protection.

If it’s a late round pick (or 2), so be it. Find a way to get rid of Ed’s cap and restructure some more. We’d still have day 1-2 picks for OT-DT and Mike. I don’t think they have to make the move but it makes sense if we can negotiate his contract in friendly terms. If healthy, it would put him in the HoF for sure. If he goes to the wrong team, you never know how things turn out. See OBj. He’s currently sitting behind Muhsin Muhammad in catches and yards.

You can do it with one star playmaker and a bunch of solid above average WRs/RBs. It happens all the time.

Yeah i think it’s tough to say which is more important because there are many variables; potential Morse retirement, potential Spencer Brown improvement; potential bates improvement/regression. Dawkins future. as of now, I’d agree, OT more important because Brown needs to be challenged (at least). I’d draft the tackle first, taking into consideration the prospects in the draft. I think I’d go Broderick Jones= Darnell Wright >Anton Harrison in that order. There aren’t any IOL worth 27 imo.

Like I said…. It has nothing to do with the time involved or the process of checking.

Great trade for your boys.

I think it’s weird to look up and see if he’s following Josh yesterday- remember the exact followers and then check again today. It’s not the time involved as much is it is the thought process. but I’m also not really into ig.

Good. Wish they traded him to the nfc though

Good post- I agree. I don’t think that we “need” a star WR2. I think it could help- and if we traded for a Hopkins- jeudy or signed OBj I’d be really fired up about it. The only cons to the move is future cap. That’s the main con to adding any star player. Especially agree with the last sentence. Gabe would be better with a better OL because Josh would be better. Same goes for play calling. Other than injuries, I thought OL and Dorsey (along with Frazier) were the main reasons our season ended how it did. give me a tackle in Rd 1 and Avila or Schmitz in round 2 and I’d be very happy.

So KC having a a WR with over 1000 yards would’ve made things different? Juju had 933 yards——- and 30 more catches than Gabe- on 8 more targets…..while missing 3 games. When forming my opinion of Gabe Davis as a good WR2, I don’t look at stats. I look at making clutch catches when Diggs is bracketed. I look at separation. If they don’t get much separation, I look at contested catches. If you want to look at stats- look at drops. Look at catch %. Not volume stats based on playing time on a team that had ZERO other outside WRs to compete with him. I hope we replace and trade him. He wont be worth the next contract as our #4. He’s not good enough to be our WR2. agree to disagree

I don’t think those stats, in this offense, with our QB proves anything except he was the #2 option. I think many WRs would have put up those stats playing in our offense with Josh allen throwing him passes, running routes opposite Diggs.

And the offensive line to give them time to get open….

He “looked pretty good” when he singlehandedly stopped the chiefs final 3 drives short of the end zone. he’s a closer and we didn’t have many games that needed closing. He was a stud. https://theanalyst.com/na/2022/11/who-are-the-nfls-all-pro-players-of-the-2022-first-half/ Miller has been worth the extremely lofty price of admission for the Bills so far this season, posting a pass-block win rate of 57.3% and winning 63.0% of his run-defense matchups. You may be screaming ‘where is Micah Parsons?!’ about the absence of the man seen as the NFL Defensive Player of the Year frontrunner. Parsons is fourth in pressure rate among edge rushers (28.3%), but 16 of his pressures have been unblocked, illustrating a role in the Dallas defense in which he often takes advantage of stunts as the looper. Athleticism and quickness create a tougher situation for the linemen who are being gamed, but it also relies on the penetrator half of the stunt to pick two defenders. In other words, he’s creating pressure because a different lineman is blowing a hole through the protection, giving Parsons a free rush on the QB. In terms of traditional pass rushing, Parsons’ impact has not quite been significant enough to make the cut.

Are you saying that von Miller didn’t look great for us? I’m confused.

Yeah. Mad. But cincis backups are good…. And showed the world how good they are the following week playing against a starting DL.

if i thought Beane shouldn’t draft a DE ever again based on his past, I would want him to be fired. I don’t agree with the assessment though. He missed on 2 and hit on 1. I hated his misses when they were drafted and didn’t have expectations for either of them

👍🏻 agreed on Dorsey too. Huge roll of the dice

Yeah they’ve been bad at it in rd 2, but I’m happy with Rousseau. If the plan is to never draft a Pass rusher again, Beane should just be fired. You can’t run a team like that.

Yeah…..Beane talking him up is the only reason I think they may not take a tackle early. I think it’s stupid and it’s putting our entire season at risk. They guy wasn’t just bad in pass pro. He was terrible and has always been terrible (in pass pro). My problem with the bolded: to have a bounce “back” season, you must first have a season to bounce back to. He doesn’t have one. He’s always been bad. He’d bounce back to being bad. He needs to improve a great deal. If he doesn’t, the season could be in the toilet. I just don’t understand why we would risk it. Especially in a draft that is lacking in 1st rd talent at most positions….but has a few very solid RT prospects that could be sitting there waiting for us. I hate dwelling on offseason GM blunders, but I would likely join the sadness blame the GM brigade if we don’t make an attempt at upgrading RT. It was proven to be a huge liability.
