Analysis of the investment in the OL that does not include the fact that we have Dawkins and Morse as high paid, relatively young, established starters, is misleading.
Every single one of Beane’s second rounders could’ve been All-Pros and we would have still been worse off if we didn’t have Allen.
It was quite possibly the best pick in Bills history.
Here’s the thing though. They did nail the Allen pick.
We sat through two decades of teams that had their fair share of drafted success but never hit on a QB. And the adage that nothing matters until you get the QB is true.
Stars make the plays that win in the NFL.
It's why having Diggs is so much more important than a John Brown and Cole Beasley.
It's why the Rams, with a top heavy, star-studded roster won a Superbowl. And the Bills with such great depth but not enough stars hasn't.
Okay. The Eagles are not questionable. The Rams, not questionable. The Bengals, not questionable. The Bucs in 2020, not questionable. The Chiefs in 2020, not questionable.
5/6 are indisputable.
Also this, but I was gonna give you that one.
The NFL would also be committing business malpractice by not accepting sportsbook affiliations, which directly influence the owners' and the players' revenues.
I would have rather won 4 than won 1.
I would have rather won 1 than lost 4.
I would have rather lost 4 than lost 1.
I would have rather lost 1 than never played in one.
I’m not satisfied. I want to win a Super Bowl.
I’ve been working the jugs machine just in case the Bills need another WR who runs a 6.9 49. I also email the FO with sleeper FA’s and draft recommendations.
besides that, what else can I do?
I mean, the Chargers have 1 playoff appearance in Herbert’s career. And a 27-0 choked lead at that.
If you’re calling that similar, then the Chiefs are similar to the Bears.
He drafted them. You can say he doesn't do a great job at getting good OL players in the draft, which would be fair. To say he has ignored them in the draft is just nonsense.
OL drafted by McDermott/Beane:
Dawkins - 2nd
Teller - 5th
Ford - 2nd
Brown - 3rd
Doyle - 5th
Anderson - 7th
Tenuta - 6th
Torence - 2nd
Broeker - 7th
You can pretend "Beane thinks the offensive line isn’t worth investing and developing through the draft," but you'd continue to be wrong lmao.
