    Hopefully not too aggressive. Hard to shake the ghosts of Sammy Watkins from the memory banks, but it feels like that same situation. The draft is loaded with WR potential, and Whaley wanted to get the cream of that crop… then Davante Adams goes in the second round.

    Point is, in a deep class I’d rather fire 2, even 3 bullets trying to find the Davante Adams, Aj Brown, DK Metcalf, or even Justin Jefferson in the late 1st, rather than risk the farm and hope Nabers or whoever is more Jamar Chase than Sammy “Can’t Miss, Generational Talent” Watkins.

    I was thinking the same thing today, when we traded up for Watkins in a loaded draft, everyone said how stupid that was.

    I'm a big supporter of the double dip for WR with this great crew coming from college. I also believe that combining the draft pick WRs (bigger, physical, speed guys) with the crew we have will have a dynamic impact on the offense. Not worried about Diggs being gone in the least if they do that. Plus, let's face it, we need to outscore teams like KC, we've tried the over investment in D strategy for McDermott and it doesn't work. 

     

    EDIT: I don't love the trading for a guy idea and then paying him. We could get 2 studs on rookie deals and go with that.

    After watching KC beat the 49ers with a underwhelming receiving core, and let’s not forget how good the 49ers defense was. I think your right about McDermott and the defense, that isn’t going to get it done.

    Happens every post season, and our good but not great HC runs back the same scheme every post season, and just can’t wrap his mind around making changes so it’s less likely to happen again. I like McDermott. He and Beane dragged the Bills kicking and screaming out of a 17 year long sh-t show, and I for one truly appreciate that effort, but its time Sean makes some adjustments for Christ sake, jmo feel free to disagree at your leisure. 

    It’s crazy how open kelce is against us, if McDermott doubled team him the hole game and someone else went off I could live with that. With the WR KC had this year, yea I’m taking kelce away.

  4. Nothing to get excited about, we needed someone, with not a lot of cap. Looks like we’re running it back with the cheap depth players.  And hopefully we hit in the draft, and I’m fine with that, we weren’t getting pass KC and CIN. With the old crew. GO BILLS

    I hear ya, but have to admit that any move we make.. my sole focus is “how does this set us up against KC?”

     

    No matter what the other AFCE teams do, we’ve been able to win the East.

     

    We have two other main contenders in Baltimore and Cincinnati.  One we typically beat, the other we struggle against. 
     

    But nothing else matters until we can get out of the AFC.. and for Buffalo, Cinci, Baltimore.. every move is made with an eye on the Chiefs. 
     

    It is what it is. 

    And that’s why I’m glad we’re not running it back, on defense anyway,,

    Chiefs Defense steps up in the Playoffs.  Bills Defense does not.

     

    Chiefs supporting cast around Mahomes steps up in the Playoffs.  Bills supporting cast around Allen does not.

     

    Not just KC's HC is better than the Bills HC, their DC is a better DC than our HC.  

     

    It is what it is. 

    And I would add there front office is better, hence all the winning there doing…

    Here we go folks. It's starting. Everybody is going to spend the next 8 months ignoring what they watched with their own eyes and boil it all down to one player.

    Man I just said Mahomes has it, I can’t stand KC anymore then anyone, but the dude makes the plays ,
