Cole Bease has been regarded as one of the top slot guys in the league for a while now
John Brown is most known as a speed guy.....
A lot of these signings so far are low risk high reward who are coming off injuries have have shown production in the past.......this I agree with HOWEVER I worry much less about the name of the player then how they would fit our offensive and defensive schemes
And they fit
They're moderate risk moderate reward like all Bills moves. These guys are all on the backside of their career, and now the Bills are asking them to carry the load.
They overpay them enough so that they become the guy.

Based on the contract numbers, none of these guys appear to have been brought in to be "marquee players"
Trying to hit it on the cheap. Like Spencer Johnson et al.

Yep - feels about right. Or like many of our signings over the past 15-20 years. Andra Davis, Dwan Edwards, Geoff Hangartner, Kawika Mitchell and so forth.
That's exactly it. Seems like Buffalo is always trying to take another team's niche rotational player and pay him to come here and try to be a marquee player.

These signings remind me of the early 2000s. The Bills brass are bringing in consolation prizes with a general philosophy of you can win with a bunch of average JAGs. Morse excluded. Don't see us making a deep run on the backs of Cole Beasley and John Brown.

Don't need WR's when all you do is run the triple option, wishbone, and wildcat.

Gary V is such an insufferable toolbox. I bet he watches Wolf of Wallstreet naked.

And here we go. Whine that they haven't signed anyone earlier today, then whine when they do. Some of you should trade your Bills gear in.
Well, it's kinda like sending someone to the store to buy an xbox with all the cash they need and find out they bought this with the cash from a guy in the parking lot:

If you aren't angry, you're easily scammed.

this is a case where they should have over payed in my opinion. an area of need and they are never going to spend all this cap money nor should they 11 million per year would not have effected their bottom line in the least and my have swayed the player. interested to see what happens at right tackle and center
The titans already grossly overpaid.-

Wentz is gonna be a great qb in this league for the next dozen years man. He was the best qb in the NFL last year until his injury.
No way he gets dealt. Zero chance.
If Foles beats Brees, I think you have to trade Wentz. Wentz has one good year to his name so far.
-
If you just forget about what they're getting paid, and how they were acquired, who's the better QB? I think the answer is Foles. Obviously Wentz has more talent, but Foles is the one taking this team deep for the second year in a row. You might win less regular season games with him, but he's already won more SB's.

That's a lot of words to essentially print a quote. It probably should have been a tweet.

I changed my mind. We need to do whatever it takes to draft Josh Allen, just to confuse every commentator and listener for the rest of their careers.
-
I want them to trade back as many times as possible. Give me 4 2nd round picks and 6 third round picks instead.
Then give me David Sills. Incredible story and player. -
Now: Mayfield, Allen, Jackson, Darnold, Rosen.
3 years from now: Mayfield, Allen, Rosen, Jackson, Darnold -
Barkley is the easiest pick there is. If the giants were a playoff team He'd be in the MVP conversation. He's better than the rest of the Giants roster combined.

Why?
The Cowboys in 1975 went to the Super Bowl with 12 rookies. 2 of them were offensive lineman.

This the kind of draft performance coupled with really good FA signing we need if "THE PROCESS" has any chance of success.
We've had McDermott and Beane's first year and mulligan tank year. 2019 is time to put up or shut up. No more excuses.
My bottom line for next year is we better be at least "in the hunt" going into week 17.
A couple things have changed in the last 50 years.

This team is at least 2-3 more years away from being a contender. There's minimal FA talent in 2019 as of now, and expect Kyle to retire -- creating a hole that Phillips has yet to prove he can fill.
It's unrealistic to expect 2019 rookies to have an immediate impact that can turn it all around at positions like WR, late round RBs, OLine, Dline. If somethign happens to Brady, allen improves enough, or we get better WR play, we may be able to sneak in a WC here as a 1 and done team again.
2020, Lorenzo retires and creates a another hole. Shady is definitely gone, so now we need to have a marquee RB. Hughes might be considering retirement by now. Hopefully some of the 2019 rookies (WR) have started to come around and Edmunds and Phillips have proven they're serviceable starters or even stars. If not, draw again. if everything works in the Bills favor here, MAYBE they could have a little run to the playoffs, but I can't write a script that makes them championship contenders here.
2021. Assuming Allen is great, we have a stud WR, stud WR, lines are shored up, DB depth, Brady is now the most obnoxious commentator in sports - now we can finally talk about realistic scenarios for a championship team.-

I'd take Josh Allen over any of the others. He's a phenomenal athlete who has grown tremendously throughout the season. He came from Wyoming to the NFL, behind a bad line with crap receivers and no running game, other than his own. He's made some great throws, and he's so much better now than earlier in the year. By the time they fix the line problems, get him some targets, and get a running game going, he's going to be an absolute star.
I'd argue he hasn't grown a bit as a passer so far. He's exactly as advertised with the exception of being a much bigger double threat. However, that may be more a product of him not handling his reads as well as he should. He's still a big armed athletic thrower with accuracy issues who doesn't always process his reads correctly or fast enough. I like his leadership.None of this is a problem right now though. He's done a good enough job so far on a really bad team. Growth typically doesn't happen during the season for a rookie. It's far more likely that it'll happen in the offseason, and then maybe during the next year as he irons out what he needs to.
The biggest thing for me is that he learns how to control power. He might be able to throw a ball 65MPH in shorts, but sometimes he doesn't put enough heat on the ball, other times (flats) he puts way too much, and his trajectory on deep balls leaves a lot to be desired. Those are all fixable, and I expect him to make a massive jump assuming he has the appropriate coaching, which is far, far, far from a foregone conclusion. -

So basically, this is complete speculation on your behalf? Gotcha. Thanks for your insight
It's called inference. It's a thing.
Well, for some of us it is.

He should use that physical talent to hit someone once in a while. I haven't seen him bury a player yet.

Yep I understand. But it’s 3 games in a row where he has struggled. He also only has 1 INT.
I’m not saying that he sucks, but he hasn’t played well for nearly the last quarter of the season and IMO he doesn’t deserve a Pro Bowl spot over the other 4 who got in.
He has one int because he's rarely targeted. There was a stretch of games this year you could be forgiven for thinking he wasn't even playing because he just eliminated his opponent from the game. He's absolutely elite tier.

Nope. Telling it like it is. He was Pro Bowl caliber for a few weeks. He hasn’t been so great over the past 3 weeks. Just as Devante Parker, Scottie Anderson, or Kenny Galloday. just saying - you don’t see Jalen Ramsey, or Xavien Howard struggle like that.
White has been good overall. Not better than any of the CB’s selected. He needs to put together an entire season of Pro Bowl play.
Must have missed Ramsey getting roasted this year.
