We are set at WR. Maybe we’ll grab one in Round 6.
Bruffalo replied to BringBackFergy's topic in The Stadium Wall
I understand, but I’d rather have a stellar offense with a middling defense then a balanced offense and defense. McDermott is supposed to be a defensive guru, so he should be able to do more with less. Otherwise what’s the point? -
Anyone who isn’t happy with this signing probably only watches Bills games. Samuel has produced with straight up trash at QB. Davis has a better statline, but only because he has a great game every 4th game. Samuel is way more consistent. We raised the floor at WR2 but we didn’t box ourselves into a “Don’t draft a WR because we invested too much in FA”

Shorter won’t even make the team, I’d put money on it. In the modern NFL you can never have too many premium receivers. It’s the 2nd or 3rd most important position on the team. They should go all offense in the draft, I’d rather surround Allen with big talent potential then waste picks on D Line rotations and bend don’t break mentality. -
I like it so long as we still get a WR R1. He’s a reliable veteran but not all we need.

Arik Armstead released, signs with Jax
Bruffalo replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall
Undeniable that the Bills need more star power on the roster, but 17 million a year is a lot to spend with Miller still on the books. It sucks though that Buffalo isn’t attractive to FA with amenities. -
I could have sworn there was reports that Harris thinking of retiring after that injury, but yes he was a 1 year deal. You can say the same about everyone except for Diggs, honestly.
-
This is a ridiculous statement this early into FA and without seeing what we do in the draft. Is there some FA RB you'd rather have that'll be around the same price as Johnson? I can't think of any.
-
He was a decent enough RB2-3 last season and I'm sure it's a low cost contract. This is what we should continue to do at RB.
-
I know it's sort of crazy strategy wise, but I hope there's an appetite in the Bills draft room for drafting a R1 WR and then doing it again in R2. We did it with EDGE a few years ago and it didn't work out, but it feels way more necessary with WR honestly.

Isaiah Hodgins Expected to Be Non-Tendered as RFA
Bruffalo replied to JGMcD2's topic in The Stadium Wall
He'll probably land somewhere as a WR5 or something, but he really needs to learn to play special teams to up his value. -
NFL Admits Mistake, Bengals get 3rd Rnd Comp Pick
Bruffalo replied to boyst's topic in The Stadium Wall
He doesn't understand how aging works. Since we dropped a lot of household names due to age/injury the Bills must be "rebuilding" -
I gotta believe this is the plan, although he might be higher than 6 depending how Shorter / Hamler / other later round rookie WRs pan out.

Greg Rousseau 5th year option, extension candidate?
Bruffalo replied to Matt_In_NH's topic in The Stadium Wall
This is one of the reasons why I'm not a big fan of McD's rotate happy D-Lineman philosophy. Rousseau probably deserves a good contract, but can you pay that money knowing he's gonna play 40-50% of snaps? I don't know that you can. -
The difference here being that he is a proven special teamer, which this team values (arguably overvalues). I get what you're saying though and I do think that's a valid argument to be made.
-
This kind of stuff is pretty common. The phins are getting Jordan Poyer likely at the lowest point in his career. The guy was serviceable but you could see how many steps he lost through the season. Good luck to him, he's going to need it with the exodus of young talent from Miami's defense.
-
I appreciate you taking up the mantle here and fighting the good fight, but it's clear that some people want to be mad at the Bills for the sake of being mad. Totally fair and I can see that side of it too.
-
Show me a team with awesome playmakers at WR4/5. It doesn't exist, that's why they're WR4/5.
-
Injuries will do that.
-
That's completely pivoting away from your original point, but okay.
-
The guy said that he "not enough talent to play on a team that's supposed to be a contender", I just provided context to show that's a silly thing to say. I never compared us to the Chiefs.
-
I'm responding directly to your statement " not enough talent to play on a team that's supposed to be a contender" Contenders have won it all with guys like Hollins in the wings. I'm not saying the Bills are anything, just that your statement is wrong.
-
The Chiefs whole WR room was filled with guys around Mack Hollins level this season and they managed to make it work. I'm not excited about this signing but it's not like he can be a Kelvin Benjamin level flop. He's a backup/ST guys primarily with some decent NFL experience.
-
Mack Hollins looked okay on the Raiders, but he's a bottom of the roster type guy, WR4/5 with some special teams upside. This shouldn't change anything in regards to the WR room needs, but eh... After Sherfield and Harty I'm not going to get excited.
-
He's been one of best route runners in short yardage situations. He's an interesting prospect for the Bills but probably redundant with Shakir. That being said, if he was cheapish I don't think it's the worst idea.
