Yeah the comparison to the 2012 Patriots was odd. The Bills do not have a Welker or Gronk on offense. Nor do they have one of the greatest coaches in NFL history.
The Jets are doing an excellent job of tanking/accumulating picks.
Hitting on those picks will be the tough part. And they still need to find a franchise QB. Which is the toughest thing to find.
The league is wide open. Getting as much help as possible could be the difference between another postseason exit and SB win.
It's not going to be this way next year.
The fact they were even willing to trade him in the division should have been a red flag for the Bills front office. The Patriots knew he would not be a threat to them. And he wasn't.
Having legit weapons on offense/defense makes it easier to play better in the postseason. The guys they have are not gamechangers. They can try as hard as they want. But most are not number one receivers. Nothing will change that.
