    opponents have laughed and shut down totally for the 2nd half of the Bills 3 losses so far, this is noticed by all.

     

     

    So you're saying that's why the line is only 3.5? Because teams don't try in the 2nd half and allow the Bills to creep back?

    Maybe some validity to that, but not creep back to within 4 points. I could see that if opponent is up 28-3 at half and then the final is 31-20 or something.

    He was rarely used yesterday.  He is not very good.  One would think with this O-line a double TE, two back set with a FB would be a good idea. Instead they ran out of the shotgun three WR most of the time.  I just see no need for a FB in the modern NFL. Lee, Croom, or Murphy can do everything DiMarco can.  Waste of a roster spot that could be better used for a third QB, a 6th WR, or another defender.  

     

    4 plays on Sunday vs GB. 4. Waste of a spot is right.

    Could have kept Kerley or O'Leary, among others.

  3. Best would be to just keep losing. Ideally they progress in these games and look better in their losses.

     

    I'd be OK with "24-21" losses the rest of the way. Competitive, with the offense scoring some points, and the defense not getting totally annihilated (maybe 1 score against them is on the offense.. pick-6 or whatever).

     

    It's not happening this year (obviously). We need draft firepower with a top-3 pick (and hopefully trade down to amass more).

  4. Don't know how they grade,  but my eyes say no way.  Maybe they don't count "rushed/pressures" or if shady shakes for a 1 yard gain if that doesn't count against them? Additionally,  SD D may have been more in cruise control in second half after the big lead, puffing up their numbers. OL needs to be a priority next year... these kind of analyses take pressure off the need.

    So what other positions should they not have addressed in order to address multiple weaknesses on the OL? QB? MLB? CB? DT? DE?

     

    Personally, I was a trade down guy last year and will be again next year. Too many needs. Need multiple top-3 round talents on OL (as well as the other positions you list). Getting just one 5th round OL every year (for example) does not build a line. Need to totally invest in OL since it's been grossly ignored for a very long time. At one time, I think we had 6 picks in the top 3 rounds last year before the trades (is that right?). Would have been a good time to get 3 top-3 round linemen. Every position's important, obviously... just seems like OL is always an afterthought. Just my opinion, but I think OL is the most important position group on the team.

  6. They had plenty of time to adjust to the best 60% of the starting OL leaving. (not enough time left to scout is SO LAME)

    Honestly, the OL was not good last year either (or the last 20 years for that matter).

    Tyrod/McCoy made them LOOK serviceable because they were quick scramblers.

    OL should have been majorly addressed. Been saying it for 20 years... but especially after losing those 3 guys.

  7. Move down and amass as many picks as possible!

     

    We need 4 (yes 4) new OLs (all but Dawkins need to be replaced). 

    We need 2 WRs.

    We need 1 CB.

    Likely need a LB and DL (Alexander and Williams replacements).

     

    Sticking with the pick and grabbing Bosa would be a mistake.

    Awesome player, would love to have him, but with all those holes above... just can't do it.
