    Until they change the rules to not favor the offense, continue drafting offense early and  spending most of your money on offense.  I like Rousseau and Benford but i’m not breaking the bank for them.  

    EDGE or pass rushers in general are worth the money. People fail to realize that Rousseau has nearly 20 TFL this year as well.

    I apologize for being a broken record, but a 1 tech is needed. Alim Mcneill would have been a great look, but the Lions resigned him in October. Not sure who else is a free agent. But may be a smart place to look in the draft. It will also be interesting if the Bills look to switch D. Carter to 1 tech next year. So far he has been subbing in for Ed O. At the 3 tech.

    I would argue that a dominant NT could take this defense from mediocre to great.

    Only way the sign Douglas or Cooper would be on a short-term one-year contract.  
     

    I think Benford is probably their biggest priority in the offseason.  He’s somewhat under the radar and while a new contract won’t be cheap it will likely be cheaper in 2025 than it would be in 2026.  
     

    I think Shakir will be next.  Rosseau is a question mark IMO.  I think they really like him but might be unsure if they want to pay when he’ll get on the open market.  It remind me a lot of Tremaine Edmunds.  
     

    As good as Cook has been I don’t think Beane likes the idea of giving a big contract to a RB.  He hasn’t done this before but we’ll see

    Rousseau is arguably our best player on defense and outside of Josh Allen, James Cook has been our biggest difference maker on offense.. I think you sign these two men first.. Both are apex players.

     

    My problem with Shakir is I’m seeing $19M/yr averages and I think that’s an absolutely ridiculous amount of money to pay a #3 guy. Without Josh his production falls way down. Why not take that money and sign a true #1 or even just draft one? I mean, for $10M-$12M sure! But $19M? C’mon man.

  5. Amari Cooper and Rasul Douglas are our high profile FAs this offseason, I’d argue against signing either of them..

     

    Mack Hollins and Ty Johnson I would welcome back at the right price.. As I would Damar Hamlin and Alec Anderson..

     

    But with $61M in cap space, I would argue that Buffalo should get an early jump on our 2026 free agent crop.

     

    I see our FAs in this order priority wise:

     

    1.) Greg Rousseau | He’s closing in on 10 sacks and 20 TFL.. He’s probably the pick of the litter and our trusty stalwart on defense.

     

    2.) James Cook | I am usually against signing RBs to big money but this guy is just so good and he consistently takes some of the pressure off Josh. 


    3.) Khalil Shakir | If we can get this guy signed to a $10M-$12M per year contract, he would be a great signing. I would not pay him big money.

     

    4.) Connor McGovern | Why not? He won’t cost a lot and he’s good.

     

    5.) Christian Benford | Is he a system corner? Or is he good? In a DB happy system, do we let him walk?

     

    I think if we can lockdown Rousseau, Cook and Shakir at the right price, we are in a good place going into the Draft…

     

    Who do you guys think Buffalo should target in Free Agency/Draft?

     

    Any early Draft prospects we should keep an eye out for?

    I can't quite go there yet. The absolute most important thing a QB can do is be able to read defenses. Look off safeties. Brady and Manning were the absolute best to ever do that.

     

    They were like OC's on the field. And they both had good enough arm strength to compete in shootouts where needed too.

     

     

     

    He’s getting there though.. His brain is catching up with his arm.. He’s like 85% of the way there.

    Really?   How can you possibly know that with any kind of impartiality?  Statistics, which we use so extensively to measure QB performance, won't work because of the differences in the game. 

    It’s just a numbers game. By default there would be a few players who slip through any which way. Kelly, Marino, Elway could probably play today, I’m sure there’s others too.

    I "watched back in the day", and your statement is simply untrue because of the differences in the game today and back in the 1990s simply make comparisons of the QBs of those two eras impossible.   Kelly was drafted in the great QB draft of 1983 (41 years ago) along with Elway and Marino.   Marino was the last of the QBs to retire, lasting until 1999.  That was 25 years ago.   The game today is much different today than it was in the 1990s just as the game in 1994 was light years different from how the game was played in the 1950s and 1960s.   What was/is valued -- and needed -- to be a great QB in the 1960s or the 1990s or the 2020s means that it's likely that few QBs could be successful if they were somehow transported to thirty years to the future or the past.

     

    Some of them can though.
