That is one large human being.

There is no point since the Bills season is over. Plus, they don't want to start that petty game as they may want to hire a coach in the same position and they don't want other teams being petty with them.

That would be an interesting staff with Shula being a veteran guy to help the rookie OC.

That doesn't surprise me as they were trying to go with a nickname that there were no other teams had already to avoid lawsuits. Off the top of my head, I can't think of a team named the Commanders out there...

His contract is up and he is a free agent. So, the Bills cannot block this move.

The OC conversation part was really good. There were a boatload of names that they talked through. Of the three candidates that we know about, I would rank things this way: 1) Dorsey 2) Bennett 3) Martin I think the positives of hiring an internal candidate and the guy that we know works well with Josh Allen is huge. I have Bennett second on this list because he has more NFL coaching experience and I like that he has worked within a couple of different styles of offense between the McCarthy offense in GB and the Gruden offense with the Raiders. If Dorsey chooses to go to the Giants and they expand the search, I would prefer to go with an OC that has a lot more experience. I think this would be my list: 1) Jim Caldwell 2) Doug Pederson 3) Bill O'Brien All three have been involved with big time NFL offenses and the experience of being an NFL head coach. If Dorsey leaves, I think you could see more offensive coaches leave than just Daboll, Johnson, and Dorsey. Having a more experienced OC that should have the ability to build a good offensive staff might be valuable.

Can you imagine Brady and Gronk walking into the Bills locker room?

O'Brien seemed to be OK as the OC for Saban at Alabama this past season. I doubt it would be a huge issue in Buffalo.

BOB the head coach and BOB the OC are two different things. If McD were to hire him as the OC, I doubt he would mess things up. Plenty of guys are way better as coordinators than they are as head coaches. O'Brien could be one of those guys.

Kiffin has a co-OC spot that he is still looking to fill.

After watching Man In The Arena and his working relationship with Brady, I have a lot of confidence that he could work well with Allen. Plus, I doubt McD is going to let a new OC change the culture that much.

It may not be a waste of time, even if Dorsey is the guy. If he interviews well, he could get a look at being the QB Coach/Passing Game Coordinator to replace Dorsey.

The cap will make it challenging to add an impact pass rusher this off season. Guys like Chandler Jones and Von Miller will likely get other offers that the Bills won't be able to match or top.

Bill O'Brien would be someone that I wouldn't be shocked if the Bills talked to if he wanted to get back into the NFL.

https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-under-the-radar-nfl-free-agents-2022-offseason With the Bills likely not making any splashy FA signings this off season, this list might have a guy or two that the Bills are in on.

It doesn't matter what he says in a press conference. Let's see what the Giants do between now and week 1. Their actions will tell the truth about how confident they are that Jones can develop into a winning QB1 in the NFL. If Mitch T is brought in and there is an open competition for the starting job...

He is likely a mid-round guy. I wouldn't take any RB in the 1st or 2nd round for this team. And my post talked about how those two were later round to UDFA guys.

Ford started his college career at Alabama before transferring to Cincinnati. He will be one of the fastest RBs in this draft class and could add an element that the Bills don't have. Bernhardt likely won't get drafted until the last couple of rounds, or he could go completely undrafted. He only played one year of college football after being the best player in college lacrosse two years ago. He was an option QB at DII champion Ferris State and he could be a Chris Hogan-esque athlete (Hogan played lacrosse at Penn State before playing football at Monmouth. With Beasley nearing the end and the Bills needing some YAC WRs in the mix, Bernhardt is a guy that will be a late round or UDFA roll of the dice. But, I think he would be a really intriguing option for the Bills.

If they can get a potential offensive gamechanger late in the 1st, I think they have to take that guy. Getting locked into any one or two positions is not great. While QB is off the board, passing a WR who falls due to an injury for an edge rusher or CB would not be smart. The Bills had two former 1st rounders in the their starting offense this season. Taking an offensive playmaker (or even an OL) would not be a bad idea.
