I hope this is just talk and we are not really going to keep Addison. What the heck is the plan, to rotate 6 DEs? And spend 3 high draft picks on DEs in two years just to have them play 20-25% of snaps?
Cut the fat and move on. Let these young guns get some meaningful playing time. Hughes and even the guy we signed from CAR are enough of a vet presence.
I could see us keeping 6, with Johnson as the man out.
I can’t stand having Addison on this team, but...Hughes and Addison are solely outside rushers. Epenesa, Rousseau, Basham and Obada can all play inside/outside. If we’re rushing DE’s from inside on passing downs, we’ll want quite a few on the active roster.
Could also put Harry on the block, with only Star, Oliver and Butler as locks.

If they drafted Elijah Moore at 30, instead of Rousseau, I’d probably give them an A.
I get the Rousseau pick. I like the potential of it. If it allows them to cut/trade Addison this offseason, I’ll retroactively bump the draft to an A.
I just feel like Josh deserves one more piece/dimension. We’re asking him to go to war against Mahomes who has an elite WR1, elite WR group, elite TE and a running game AND/OR someone like Cleveland who have a strong WR group, solid TE play and a monster run game and Baltimore who got Lamar a bunch of weapons to go with their running game and TE’s...
And what Josh has (that is proven) is an elite WR1 and strong supporting cast of #2 WR’s in Beasley, Sanders and Davis. Potential at TE and a work in progress run game.
All 4 teams look to have solid OL’s.

I don’t see how anyone can say we’re the same team now that we’ve added two seriously talented lively young thoroughbreds to our d line. That was the missing link last year. For one thing I expect about 5-10 more forced fumbles this season which by itself can add a win or three to your record.
I really have grown to like the two DE picks, along with adding Obada. Truly, I think we could see a dominant defense again next year...That being said, Front 7 is the one area I need to see it to believe it from this Front Office.

Tough Draft to immediately analyze (as if any are).
I think it was a very sound, strong Draft...
Made us bigger, more talented and deeper across the lines, took a speed WR/KR/PR and some secondary depth.
Where the fan frustration can come in is that KC, CLE and all our Division Rivals seem to have gotten noticeably better.
We have basically the same team, which continuity can be a huge positive, and while deeper - the Draft doesn’t address the fact that KC and Cleveland have more top end talent than us.
We also need to hope the running game woes can be fixed in-house as the only changes are the additions of Breida and Tackle depth.
I wouldn’t be shocked to see another big move between now and the start of the season.

We could certainly carry 7 WR’s as well.
We go 4 wide a ton. If Stevenson provides speed and is our KR/PR, McKenzie is the gadget guy, and Hodgins is big slot/red zone, it could make sense to have all active on Gamedays.

they say that 4.45 was slow for him and think he can run a sub 4.4, also that his game speed is as fast as his 40
Yup. Just watch his highlights. Some guys just look different in open space... this guy looks different in open space.-

I’d be shocked if this guy doesn’t make the active roster.
Phenomenal KR/PR & has blazing speed to be a “take the top off” guy.
Since we got him in the 6th, I’ll write his name in pencil, but I think he’s exactly what we needed.

Looks like this guy is WR6 as KR/PR/Speed Threat
Kiper says he’s 6 feet, so a burner with some size.
Love the pick!

I like Cornell Powell. Thought he was a nice player for Clemson, but would be redundant on the outside for us with Diggs, Davis and Sanders.
-
I honestly would’ve liked Elijah Moore at 30, but doubling up Rousseau with Basham actually make me like the pick more.
It seems we have an idea of what we want this DL to be, and both have talent and will play this year.
The two OT’s, I get the frustration, but with Nsehke leaving, we didn’t have a swing tackle. Bobby Hart is a Tackle in name only. We throw the ball a ton and need to make sure Josh Allen is making all those throws.

Okay, Basham is a high-effort guy who lacks elite speed and explosiveness (a position where the Bills doubled down). Breida? For all his speed, he is injured a lot and has moved around quite a bit. Little impact with Miami.

I am not talking just about the 5th round. They had picks in rounds 1-3, and took two developmental DE's. There were plenty of other options.
Basham is not a developmental DE.
Rousseau is called that simply because he has a crazy amount of untapped potential.
Both will be in the DL rotation this year.

Which is what Spencer Brown was and is why I understood that. I guess I’m the only one who is worried about our interior D Line even if Rousseau and Basham can move around, I’d like a pure DT to go along. And, a CB to develop is nice too. I understand building for the future especially with big contracts coming up sooner than later.
We have Star. You can literally get good 1 techs in the mid-late rounds every year.
Id like another one too, but the vision for our DL clearly looks like it has one goal... rush the passer.... and then figure out everything else.

Feliciano, Ford, Boetger, Bates is it?
Morse is good, Feliciano is average and Ford is unproven as a starter, but Bates and Boettger are decent depth.I’m fine with these guys, given how the Draft played out.
More than relieved that we addressed Tackle depth. Bobby Hart wasn’t it.

Showing now that the Bills have three 6th round picks. 203, 212, 213.
Seems like overkill 🤷🏼♂️ -
Finally seeing Buffalo in the up-next box...

Ahhh the drafting a kicker convo again on ESPN with the McPherson pick.
I can honestly say that I am very happy we spent a pick on Bass.

I am aware that great players can be drafted very late or go undrafted. It's rare, though. So...who is your diamond in the rough?
Doesn’t seem that rare for the position when two of the current best and one of the all time great were taken later than where we currently are in the Draft. -

They ❤️ Dawson Knox
It takes time to develop Tight Ends.
Kittle, Waller and Kelce didn’t enter the league as those dudes.
Im fine sticking with Knox. He’s clearly got the ability.

FSU is wild with how much NFL talent they always have, yet they’ve been a dumpster fire for years.

Why? Diggs torn oblique, Davis sprained ankle, Beas broken leg...those are significant injuries to play thru. And after Smoke fought thru his injuries, his play just dropped off completely.
We didn't get shut down by Indy. Bmore and Kc did shut us down, so agree there. But combination of injury and execution both games.
Agree speed would be nice. But it's more about execution and finding ways to get our guys open. We have plenty of talent, but I agree another skill position player this draft, with a diff skill, ie quickness, speed, yac would be great.
Josh Allen beat Indy. People forget how great he played, especially in the national media, due to the late fumble that Williams recovered.
Buckner was a demon but, unlike KC, they couldn’t keep Allen hemmed in and our WRs weren’t broken down yet.
The only other QB’s who could have won that game for us would have been Mahomes or Rodgers.

Bills 2021 Draft - Overall Assessment
in The Stadium Wall Archives

I 100% agree with the vision to be a perennial contender. I cringe when teams load up for a short window. As a fan, I want sustained success and a shot to win it every year.
We clearly have that view.
I just think Josh deserves another piece.
We’re hoping Knox and the running game develop, while other contenders already have those elements in place.
I will say, on Gabe Davis last year and maybe Marquez Stevenson this year, we feel somewhat reminiscent to those Steelers teams that developed these mid-late round WR’s and out of nowhere they were studs.
