Dunne has a vendetta against the current Bills regime. I don't even think it's debatable. He's been consistently negative on them since the moment they took over. That being said, he's not entirely wrong that a philosophy change is warranted. He's just a jerk about it.

I did say "if it's available", which would be a presupposition that AZ would be interested in the deal as stated. "Who says no to that?" is from the Bills perspective. I also said earlier in the thread that I think it's unlikely that Hopkins goes to the Bills. It's fun to speculate. Let people speculate.

And Beane shouldn't be, honestly. He was a very high pick that has not been nearly consistent enough or dominant enough, and I think he's started to run out of excuses as to why. He's a solid, good player, but not the superstar that we drafted him to be. Good teams don't pay solid players like superstars.

If I'm Brandon Beane I'm making that move in a heartbeat, if it's available. Then you're free to draft your DT of the future. How could you say no to that?

Sure would be fun, I don't see it happening, but it would be really fun.

There's an argument to be made that you'd rather keep Singletary and lose Hines, but then you're losing the return game as well. Overall, I'm happy with the RB room with how it's shaken out.

1 year "prove you can stay healthy" deal for way cheaper than Singletary, and arguably a better fit for our offense. I kind of love it.

They were bad when I was a kid in the 90s. Bar Bill is one of the top choices for sure though.

They certainly don't have them perfect anymore. The Anchor bar is terrible.

McKenzie is a rosterable NFL player, so I'm not surprised he landed somewhere quickly. Good luck to him, I'm not sure sure if he'll ever be able to put it all together, but he's a nice depth/gadget piece.

This is fine. He's not ideal, but he's still above Bobby Hart and that tier.

Is it the worst idea if he's really cheap? Probably not. It's a flyer move for a guy who massively underperformed last season. I wouldn't hate it.

I'll be incredibly surprised if the Bills or the Chiefs end up with Hopkins. I like the idea of OBJ or Hopkins as a stopgap for the next two years, because I don't believe in Davis anymore, and I don't think it's prudent to re-sign him quickly.

Because weight and height exclusively decide the effectiveness of an RB. This is a braindead take.

It just boils down to this: The Bills thought certain guys (Davis, McKenzie, Saffold, Moss, Spencer Brown, Ryan Bates) would step up and be adequate to good contributors on the offense, and none of them stepped up to a level that was acceptable for a team of this caliber. They've made some low end upgrades, and they still have faith apparently in Davis, Brown, and Bates in that they didn't go replace them. I think the offense is slightly better. Slightly better might be enough to make things way less clunky. It's hard to say. I want to see more offensive investment via the draft. G/C, WR, TE, T... any of those early would be a boon, but you've got to remember that McD absolutely refuses to play rookies.

I understand the sentiment, but are there any meaningful upgrades left with the O-Line in FA? I'd like to see investment in the offense heavily this draft, but I'm not holding my breath.

I'm with you. Gabe is in the final year of his contract and I don't see how the Bills can feel comfortable about offering him another deal. It's why even if they land OBJ I still want to see investment into WR early into the draft, and then maybe take a flyer on a guy late as well.

He's arguably better than Zeke, and he's definitely better than Fournette, who looked shockingly bad last season. Henry would be a more impactful signing but certainly not a move I would want them to make considering the cost. Harris is a good, smart signing.

I like the signing, but I'm very interested to hear the terms. He is likely an upgrade from Singletary in just about every way so long as he's healthy. Still need more investment in the WR room and O-Line.

I'm still fully on the OBJ train for a sensible deal. Even if they sign either of them I still want a WR in the first 3 rounds.

I didn't mean anything I wrote as an attack on his character. To me, he's in that category of player that you just kind of shrug off when they go somewhere else. No malice intended.

Good luck to him, I doubt he'll be missed by the fans here in any meaningful way.

KhaDarel Hodge sounds like he's right out of Game of Thrones. What a name.

I said this about the McKenzie replacement as well... Low risk move that creates new competition in the room for depth WR spots. I'm fine with it, I'd still like to see more investment on the offensive side of the ball, but having solid depth is important too and shouldn't be ignored.

Buffalo is so desperate for a championship it's about to burst. You win one this century and all the anxiousness will be gone. Until then, it's a lot to ask this fanbase to just sit back and enjoy the ride.
