What exactly is this team missing from the same squad that went on a winning streak and took the AFC East, AGAIN, and the number two seed?
Stef Diggs who did literally decided to do his best John Cena impression during that same stretch?
Beane has filled all the holes. He’s added WRs in Samuel and Coleman who compliment Brady’s scheme and Josh’s style of play more so than both Davis and Stefon Diggsapearing Act. I’ll assume you somehow know how to better draft and assemble a football team however that’s managed to win it’s division 4 years I’m a row and counting…
We won 6 in a row with Diggs doing nothing and Davis having multiple games of 0-0 0yds. But now we're in a down year because we didnt draft a second WR in the 5th round.

Howie would've played defense in 13 seconds?

Right like every player picked is likely to be a significant contributor, and we got better than 5th round picks in next years draft, but we didn't get speedy WR so bahumbug.
The Division is still ours. It will still be ours. The FO is NOT preparing for a down season like some folks think. We are absolutely competing for the Division and a Championship.

We’ve got at least 5 on the roster currently. We usually carry 5 actual LBs and a LBINO who’s there for special teams.Right. Not nearly enough for camp. Not all of them will make the roster. How many did we go into camp with last year?

Honest question: how many do you think we need?We had 4 LBs hurt at the same time last year. Can any NFL team lose their top 4 at one position group and still field a good group?
As many as we carried last year and Dodson is gone, Matakevich is gone, and Klein is likely retired. So need to re-build that depth.
I dont expect them all to be all-pro all the way down. But the roster needed bodies there.

1300 pass blocking plays. 1 sack allowed.

Please be more depth on defense that can look great in the regular season, and then disappear in the playoffs. Keep McD happy, that's all that matters

Starters: Bernard, Milano. One was awesome last year, the other is an All-ProReserves:
-Williams. I expect him to be much better mentally in year 2. Looked very promising physically as a rookie
-Spector. Looked pretty good in spot starting duty when forced in. Should still be improving in year 3
-That vet we signed
-Someone I’m forgetting?
Your stance isn’t at all self-evident to me, guy.
One missed 3/4ers of the season, again. The other missed a handful of games and had us pulling AJ Klein out of an RV to start for us.
We need LBs.

Bernard, Milano.
Exactly. And even if you count Williams as the backup, that isnt enough.
LB is the most violent position and they are often injured. Last year we were down to starting Dodson/Klein at the end.
And Dodson is gone.
We could definitely use depth. And god forbid we ever need to run 3 real LBs.

We have to start unloading some of these 5th rounders, right?
That said, we always seem to hit in this round.

Jets by far have the best overall roster in the AFCE. If they stay healthy, they should be really good. They’ve had a solid draft.
How many years in row do we have to hear this about the Jets and Dolphins while we keep winning the Division?

Pittsburgh didn't trade for that pick. However, the 49ers did just trade two 5th round picks for the Jets' 4th round pick. And that's straight up-- as in, they didn't even give up their own 4th. And the Jets also traded away a 4th round pick for next year's 3rd from the Lions. Again, straight up. That's a normal trade value for any draft.
So your assessment of trade value is way off. It wouldn't have taken much to move up or even acquire an extra pick this round.
And there have been 7 trades this round with teams moving up or acquiring picks so there's no shortage of partners either.
Maybe.
Maybe teams arent as willing to help out the Bills as they are the Jets. Already reported no one took our calls on the last trade up attempt.

More than WR? C'mon man. We got nobody to throw the ball to.
Yes, unfortunately.
Look, there are only so many balls to go around on Offense.
Samuel
Coleman
Shakir
Kincaid
Knox
Cook
Anyone we draft at this point is coming in as maybe our 6th or 7th option at best. Probably wouldnt even beat out Shorter or Isabella.
Any DT or Safety we draft will see decent playing time and have opportunities to directly contribute every snap they play.
I want another WR too. Dont get me wrong. But at this point, we're likely looking at cuts not draft picks.

Did they really want Bishop? They tried trading up but he's not going to admit if it was for someone else (Bullard)
It was for Bishop, and he should have been our target over Bullard. We already have 2 Bullards on the roster with Rapp and Edwards. Needed someone to fill Hyde's role.

We will see I guess
Absolutely. Maybe Sean Payton proves what a QB guru he is. But I've watched Nix in college for the past 15 years, and was never impressed once. He got clowned a lot down here in SEC country. Had to run away to the PAC just to get any hype.

He goes to the team that drafted his college QB. To me that sounds like he instantly has a relationship and trust with his QB that he’s been catching TDs from for years.
just sayin
See above
They can have all the chemistry in the world. Good for them. I'm sure their wedding ceremony will be beautiful.
Wont matter when Nix is sailing passes out of bounds, not seeing the open WR, and getting sacked because he missed the blitz.

So we acquired all these draft picks to be able to move around the board and now we're just going to watch every remaining viable WR get taken when we could easily move up and get one?
Who promised you the bold?
Beane watched us lose a ton of starters. We have holes all over the Defense, especially in depth. Anyone who thought we were going to sacrifice a bunch of picks for mid-round WRs was on the wrong track.
Plus, you need 2 to tango and most of the teams are aware that the talent in this draft drops off a cliff after about 130 players. So those 5ths are worthless for trades.
Case in point:
3 minutes ago, ColoradoBills said:PIT just used a 2025 3rd for this pick?
Price is high for trade-ups it seems.
You need to move next year's good picks just to get up in this draft.

I hope he wins ROY
lol not with Bo Nix throwing to him.
Wonder what teams had on him that slid him to the 4th round? Even headcase Jermain Burton went before him!

I don't follow the college game. Is anyone bummed that Green Bay took Bullard two picks before we took Bishop? Bullard's highlights looked kind of awesome. How do the two rate vis-a-vis each other?
Bullard is a short/stocky Strong Safety type that will come up and plug the box, like Poyer's role. We already have 2 of those in Rapp and Mike Edwards.
We were missing the long, rangy Free Safety ballhawk to replace Hyde. That is Bishop. And he can come up and hit better than Hyde.
I like Bullard, but was hoping for Bishop or Bullock. Happy we got Bishop. Exactly what we needed.

A young DT was a huge need. Yeah, Beane recently found some bodies, but he always does at positions of need before the draft, just in case. With our rotation, and keeping DTs fresh and healthy anyways, Carter should see the field and have chances to contribute as much as any "starter".
Franklin, Rice, Baker, and Tez Walker are all still out there and dont seem to be flying off the shelf any time soon.
It aint over.
