I would totally play it back with this roster, esp with vastly improved health at Corner, Safety and O Line. Beane made many solid additions in FA. The draft will be nice and some new talent for future years will appear, but this team just needs to play better on Playoff game day, plain and simple ( as they will be there ) .

I could see him selling as well. His heart may just not be in it anymore without Kim in the building with him. He may see the team and her over the top work ethic as a cause of her health issues. I could see it for sure.

agreed. I would trade down with the 1st. Bring more draft choices in and find more Benfords, etc. I'm ready to play it back this year with last year's 14-4 existing starters, the quality guys coming back from last yrs injuries and the new FA additions.

Surprised he hadn't already been signed. Good player. defense doesn't much matter in the NFFL (National Flag Football League) ... the playoffs last year and the SB showed that the top half dozen teams will put 30 on you regardless of who you have on D Signing Klein may mean they can draft Offense more readily , which is a good thing

Agree. Many posters on this board have been sucked into the "unless you win the SB you suck" mentality. Congratulations to the media for creating this myth.

Worth doing if JSN drops in the draft for some unknown reason. He's probably a top 15 pick, so can't imagine Beane breaks the draft capital bank going up to 10 or 12 from 27 to get him. From 27 to 20? Then sure maybe. We'll see.

Sure, if McDermott intends to completely change the defensive scheme (4-2-5) he's used for over 10 years. If he's sticking with what he's used very successfully for over 10 years , then no, we are not interested in a true 3-4 NT. I think we know which of these is the case. Next.

thnking Beane will trade back, and then trade up enough to get Campbell in the second. He ends up with Campbell plus a full 7 picks. Thats the way I see it. Pretty simple. Worst that can happen is we get 7 picks and Bernard takes over for Edmunds, which he was drafted to do anyway.

yes. defense doesn't much matter anymore at the highest levels as with today's rules, D cannot win against the best pass offenses. the NFL at the highest levels is pretty much pass heavy, flag football. Have a run game and run defense, sure, but don't expect to go very far it you don't have the QB and receiver talent to play 50 throws/game flag football . WRs/DBs don't even wear pads anymore bc they don't need to

they'll probably go with Bernard. that is why they drafted him last year, as a hedge that TE leaves, which he did. pretty simple. all but the last negative on the OP also applied to TEdmunds, so not seeing a big dropoff in play necessarily.

i don't follow this draft stuff very closely, but the general feel in the media seems to be this is a relatively poor draft class in general .

Brown will be RT this year. He'll be better than last year.

BPA on offense. Position doesn't matter.

this years predictions just about as useful as last years' zzz

That with continual, marginal roster improvement every year and Josh Allen as QB, the McBeane Bills will win the SB. Rams "burn it all down" method to get one trophy is about the most hollow, most quickly forgotten title in sports history.

lets go get Warren Sapp while we're at it

that'd be my acid test... they dip into the ranch and the lunch is over

my favorite is the guy in Canada with the outdoor "billshelmetbar" .. check this handle out on insta. they use it in all weather

The rest of the AFC East was poorly run for 17 years.

yep. I'm a believer. 55-21 record just does not lie.

solid. McBeanes are killing it again Under the radar, just upgrading everywhere. slowly and quietly. O Line, RBs, WRs.

hopefully none beyond October

no one cares

well so much for that one pretty sure the WRs signed so far are upgrades

When you can't touch the QB, you can't touch the WRs, its impossible to stop a top, quick release QB and top WRs other than a few drives per game, I am not super interested or concerned about defense. Playing the top 5-7 teams, you simply need to outscore them, so put your focus on having the number 1 offense. Focus the D on getting 4-5 stops per game (punts/FGs) when you score TDs on all but 3 of your drives. I am exaggerating, but why go nuts sweating over and spending huge $$ on D when the rules don't allow them to play? I'm glad Edmunds walked.. he doesn't generate stops, he just forces offenses to take longer to score a TD. That model is interesting but doesn't work against top 5 teams. You need to score, score and score some more. Is it possible that the flag football game at the Pro Bowl was pretty entertaining because it looked a lot like the regular game?
