I think allowing our young WR to develop is also key. Shakir is ready for a breakout next year but we shouldn’t depend on that. Sign a tier 2 WR2. Starts next year with… WR1 Diggs WR2 UFA WR3 Shakir WR4 Rookie 1st round pick WR5 Shorter WR6 Rookie mid round round pick

My top 2nd tier WR2 targets are Samuel and Mooney. I think the Bills will have interest in both. They can. It depends what they do with Diggs. Samuel and Mooney would be great additions. Both would excel playing with Josh.

Those names are all over the place, not sure what you mean? Yes this would be similar to a Brown or Beasley signing. As he has production but not top level production. Are you saying Brown and Beasley were bad signings? Sanders was an aging vet signing. Samuel is 4.3 speed WR that can play everywhere on the field. He fits what Joe Brady does as an OC. Also it wouldn't prevent a 1st round rookie from getting on the field. Gives the Bills an explosive play maker.

I remember hearing McDermott talk about preserving him or something. You wonder if this is planned.

Money isn’t an issue for the Bills. They can definitely afford a WR2 in free agency. Even a WR1 if they make some simple moves.

He’s like a Deebo Samuel lite. Can do some of the same things but never put it all together due to injuries. Explosive player that plays all over.

I wonder if he’ll be the Harty replacement next year. Samuel is the type of WR you want running all those WR screens we’ve been calling. Doesn’t hurt that Samuel had over 1,000 total yards with Joe Brady and Beane helped draft him in Carolina. How would you feel about Samuel and a 1st round WR as the major WR additions?

Very good run blocker. Struggled some in pass protection. One of the reasons I don’t want much change on offensive systems and coaching is the entire starting OL is signed next year. I like that continuity. Keep the system, tweak it, add playmakers outside.

They definitely could’ve and should’ve beat KC. That’s why people want a coaching change. KC is not that much better, it’s a few plays here and there.

Didn’t read the whole thing. But you don’t think they can beat Mahomes and Reid after their last two playoff meetings? Those games go either way. This isn’t Jimmy Johnson dominating Marv Levy.

I get wanting the Bills to reach a level of excellence but Washington is one of the best DL coaches in the NFL. Do you really think simply by changing DL coaches Epenesa and Rousseau will become all-pros? Ed Oliver has had Washington coaching him and he just took a giant step. Development isn’t a one way street. Rousseau and Epenesa need to work at their craft this offseason, and I’m sure they will.

Hamlin or Josh Allen? McDermott chose Hamlin.

Not really. I’m not saying fire the players. They didn’t play well. Ed Oliver was handled by an All-pro OG. Firing Washington doesn’t help Oliver defeat Joe Thuney. If you’re evaluating the coaching staff you don’t just evaluate 1 game. Overall Washington doesn’t deserve to be fired.

Terrible decision. Just go for it.

This was a bad idea.

If McDermott survives a couple more seasons it’s very likely.

Not an accomplishment but you don’t fire a head coach for losing in round 2 of the playoffs every year to other elite QBs. Who exactly are we hiring to replace McDermott that we are confident would beat Mahomes and Burrow? At least we’ve seen a McDermott defense beat Lamar Jackson.

I think it’ll be Rapp and Poyer. Cam Lewis 3rd safety. I also think Hamlin returns.

Thats on the players.

We won’t be in cap hell until Allen gets too old to restructure or extend.

Thought it was interesting Beane said the defense didn’t play well vs KC. I know it’s not shocking but still an interesting comment to make.

That’s what he told you?

Bass was a perfect 9/9 in his career when tied or trailing by 3 points or less with less than 2 minutes left or OT. Let that marinate.

Hopefully Harbaugh going to the Chargers can challenge KC and put some regular season pressure on them.

I think that’s the plan. I wonder if this actually helps the Bills make that decision without upsetting other coaches on the staff. Bills have at least 4 capable DC’s as assistant coaches.
