  1. Some folk are just really  stupid when it comes to doing life’s normal stuff, in this case he self creates a situation that shows him as a willfully ignorant/stupid person, that has evidently no respect/concern for others, this behavior, after his teams fans financially coming to his aid to help him not that many years ago..., mental health issues or not it’s not excusable.

    But I think it has pretty much always been that way. Overdorf just does what he is told.

    Ah yes, but it was those instructions that he was given back in the dark times, I am certain that Overdorf has the appropriate skill set to do what he is told to do, and does it well, otherwise he would have been waived... 😁

    Nah. I think fans just want to see the team make an attempt to take the next step in improving the team and winning a SB. Depth signings and relying on the draft isn’t going to accomplish that, IMO. Hopeful they can pull out a move to really bolster the team and close the gap between them and the Chiefs.

    Have some faith in a GM & HC team that have taken the team from being an out and out laughingstock to a powerhouse in short order, There is a contingent of fans that post here that would openly complain about winning it all, because we traded Sammy Watkins years ago... 😂

    Yea.... at times this group can be too damn conservative. Gotta be aggressive and take some risks if they want to win it all. 

    Yup, and be a middling team for several seasons after the cap comes due, 

     

    Folk seemingly don’t understand the concept of being a perennial contender, I wonder how many more times and how many more ways Beane has to say this for folk to realize what’s happening at OBD..,

    part of the song of Don
    "set yourself free" is the chorus
     and why he has to try so many ways to leave his lover

    sneak out the back jack etc

    The future. Not 2021. I vote we still need Wallace as #2

     Dane Jackson needs a real offseason and then some yet. Sorry for poor wording

    I do know that was the chorus, I claim old guy memory syndrome, as my defense for the rest of it 😁

    I'm not necessarily saying he isn't deserving of a second chance.  I'm simply saying I can't see Kim Pegula giving one to him.

    I hear ya, If I’m a woman in a position of power, I’m not likely to hire this guy if he hasn’t repented in a very obvious way, and shown himself to have changed his behavior over a notable period of time, and even then I would be hesitant to hire him. 

  7. Mostly it was run play schemes, and that our best O line combination was never on the field together at any point of the season, that and with Spain being an azs when it came to doing his job, and getting himself fired,  these facts fit very well with Beane’s remarks in the end of season PC, it really is not so complicated as to why our run game regressed from the previous season, all ya gotta do is look at what changed one year to the next, and the answer becomes apparent.

    It’s not our running backs, it’s the line. They can’t run block. A 1st/2nd on a RB is a waste of a pick unless someone like ETN or the guy from Alabama fall.

    Generically speaking it was the O line, but upon a little investigation what shows up is that it was a combination of player injuries and the timing of those injuries that caused our best guys to not take a single snap together as a unit throughout the entire season, that and Spain being an azs about actually doing his job, and getting himself fired, are the root causes of the run game floundering so badly. Throw in poor scheming, and you’ve got the icing on a cake no one wanted a piece of.  To our benefit Beane understands this, jmo.

    Don't forget Overdorf was also the guy writing the contracts back before Beane got here and put the Bills in cap hell i think Beane has a lot more input when it comes to that now because it's no where near what it use to be & most every contract is Bills friendly .

    Beane gives Overdorf a set of instructions, and Overdorf then follows them, the days of Overdorf having decision making authority are gone, and that is a very good thing. Beanes approval is a requirement on all contracts.

    Boettger is still un-signed, last I knew anyway, though it seems that it would be easy enough to bring him back. Now that we've got all that done ...

     

    OL, pass rusher, CB, TE, WR and also maybe 1-tech and RB, probably in the later rounds. Pretty much the same as it has been, really, but less concern with OT and more with G/C.

     

    Beane's way has been to find guys in FA so we're not forced to go any particular direction in the draft if we don't want to, and then he drafts BPA at the same positions that seemed to be weaknesses before FA. Not that this guarantees he'll do the same this year, but that's probably the way to bet.

    Yup, Beane has been BPA at positions of need since day one, that is certainly a safe bet, but no guarantee as you said. It’s nice though to have a GM that doesn’t play Madtasy with our team...
