Say what you will about McFrazier, but they are excellent at developing defensive backs. And they have already turned former CBs into one of the best safety tandems in the league (Poyer and Hyde). Benford is intriguing, but I'd still like to add one more safety in the offseason.

The "Josh Pit."

Let's trade up and draft a WR, then sit him on the bench so he can start in 2024.

Agree. I liked McDuffie more going into the draft, but I don't think he's better than Elam right now. He was just given more opportunity. When given the chance to play, Kaiir demonstrated the ability to show up in big moments this season. I believe the '22 draft class will prove to be a good one for the Bills.

Brown has prototypical size, and is one of the best athletes in the NFL. But he had next to zero experience when he was drafted. He absolutely has the tools to be an elite RT. Having said that, we need to bring in competition, and allow him to develop. Imagine if we had the patience to do the same with Wyatt Teller.

Edmunds is going to get 17 - 20 million average annual value from someone. The Bills could structure the contract so his cap hit is less than 12 million for the first year or two. But dude is going to get paid.

Lamar is the "elite" QB that scares me the least. McFrazier seem to have a good recipe/gameplan for limiting him.

Yes, the chiefs traded Hill last yearb but they still kept one of the 2 best TEs in the history of the NFL. The Bills don't have a guy like that through which to funnel the offense if they trade Diggs. I agree that we need to get younger, and let those young guys play.

That's an oddly specific description of Zay. I hope you clear your browser history.

Fire Jim Salgado.

Maybe he can move up to 9, and draft an undersized DT. Seriously, though. It's about scouting. Scouting of prospects, and scouting of self (team). Not about where you draft so much. Mixing in a little luck wouldn't hurt.

Agree. Special teams are very important, but I think Matakevich is a luxury we can't afford when the o- line is badly in need of an upgrade. Paying 4 million to your 5th linebacker isn't good budgeting when you're 20 mil over the cap.

Well, Josh said we need to be like the chiefs. Beane just said, "hold my beer."

I don't think people realize how good, or important, he is. Sure, he doesn't make a lot of splash plays (a function of playing in Frazier's defense I suspect). But he's able to take chunks of the field away and lowers the overall efficiency of the opposing offense. I'd hate to lose him. It creates a massive hole.

This team needs a lot of cheap depth guys. I expect to sign and keep a few undradted FAs. As well as a trade down or two in the draft. But i don't want to trade one of our starting caliber CBs and create another hole. Especially because 2 are on cheap rookie contacts. And Dane is a RFA.

And it burns when you pee... so I'm told.

Imagine Peterman with the eagles offense. He'd only throw 2 picks a game.

Jerricho Cotchery could be a possibility. Played there, coached there. Currently a WR coach at a small university so this wouldn't be a lateral move.

I wasn't happy with Dorsey this year. But I've made my peace with him being the OC next year. So let's give him an NFL caliber o-line to work with, and a real WR2.

I think there were multiple factors to their rookie success this year. Scouting, coaching, injuries, and lack of depth. But it is impressive that they were able to plug in their rookies and not miss a beat. Their coaches are able to adapt scheme to utilize their players. Meanwhile, our coaches keep the athletic, first round CB with ball skills on the bench because he doesn't fit the scheme.

I really don't understand people questioning his attitude. He's not being a diva, he's not trying to pad his stats. We're lucky to have him. I wish we had a few more with his fight.

To be fair, he wasn't plucked by Daboll and Shein until late in the season when their WR corps was decimated. But it is concerning that a team with drop problems couldn't find a place for Hodgins' sure hands.

I think this is exactly right, and would be ideal. We need a real playmaking WR2. That guy isn't on the roster right now.

I think he wants to be an OC one day. He was just falling down the totem pole here. I wish him the best until they play the Bills.

I hear his responsibility will be to pick a play out of a hat on third and long.
