No starters from the draft? Not exactly true.
mushypeaches replied to TC in St. Louis's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I wouldn't be stunned - people like sexy names at the top of the draft and at premium positions. I'm sure the fanbase got all fired up about our great draft when we traded up for Sammy Watkins. Or how about when we picked CJ Spiller, Marshawn Lynch, and Willis McGahee? Or when we won the offseason when we traded for Lesean McCoy? No thanks, I'll take this draft any day of the week -

Every year, I become a bigger fan of Beane's team building strategy Free Agency is to plug immediate holes and find plug & play starters and high snap count rotation players Draft is for development, depth, and future backfills Obviously there are some exceptions, especially in the first round of the draft, but this is exactly how you build a sustainable, competitive roster. Once you begin to "need" the draft to find multiple starters each year, it means that your current talent isn't performing or you're top-heavy vs the cap I enjoy not being in that boat any longer -
I can't see us cutting both Horrible Harry and Justin Zimmer. We need to have at least one big body option other than Star to play 1T.

No CB in Draft? — No Problem or No, Problem?
mushypeaches replied to RJ (not THAT RJ)'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm very confident that Beane will find one or two veteran free agent finds this summer in the low-to-mid $ range to help address the depth gap. Not a worry right now, but I think they'll know more after they see what they have in mini-camp, i.e. if the rookies can play this year -
Let's revisit and grade 2017 draft
mushypeaches replied to No_Matter_What's topic in The Stadium Wall
Fun fact - this is the first Bills draft since the pre-salary cap era of 1991 that we signed 3 of our original picks to 2nd contracts It has always felt like this, more than anything else, contributed to the long period of mediocrity, and indirectly to all of the bad free-agent spends as well. -
1. Chiefs 2. Browns 3. Bills
mushypeaches replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'll be worried about the Browns when they find a better QB than Faker Mayfield -

Top 5 #1 picks of all-time Bruuuuuuce #3 per cbs
mushypeaches replied to CorkScrewHill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Bad things, man -
I'm in the boat of letting the draft come to us this year. We have a lot of young cheap depth that's going to age out in the next 1-2 years that's going to need to be replaced. It takes cheap draft picks to do that. Yes, I'd like to win, but I don't want to become this top-heavy have/have-not club either. That's the quickest path back to 6 win purgatory

Could You See Josh Allen Doing TV Commercials?

Whatever product Josh endorses, the commercial needs to end with him diving through a folding table -
1988 Buffalo Bills -1st Division Title since ‘80
mushypeaches replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This was a fun season that started my true Bills fandom at the ripe old age of 14. The defense was absolutely stifling even with Bruce sampling the nose candy. Good think too, because despite having an up-and-coming QB, we gave way too many carries to stiffs like Jamie Mueller and Carl Byrum -
Exactly - the only right answer is "who cares". This isn't 1977 - the best teams in the league win by passing the football. I enjoy that finally, we are one of them

I'd love to see this

It's Wallace all day. He's done great for being an UDFA but it's easy to tell that his talent level isn't enough to make his starting position sustainable long-term

Never been so disinterested in a draft
mushypeaches replied to Bakin's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If having a top notch, Super Bowl caliber team means that I'm much less interested in the draft, I'll gladly take it. It got real tiring having an awful-to-mediocre team then watching them pick guys like Mike Williams, Donte Whitner, and Marcel Dareus with high selections Let's not do that again for a long long time -
Why can't Brandon Beane get the defense right?
mushypeaches replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I happen to enjoy that we scored 500 points last year. Really don't care that much how many we gave up -
Why can't Brandon Beane get the defense right?
mushypeaches replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is a ridiculous assertion. We've had a top defense until last year when some injuries and opt-outs hurt a lot more than any draft or FA misses did. And frankly, I'm much happier that they have a top offense and a middling defense vs having a top defense and a middling offense It's a much stronger and sustainable brand of football. Would you prefer that we bring another GM in to make these decisions??? Again - ridiculous -
Good for Cleveland I wouldn't touch that guy with a 39 1/2 foot pole

Are they having some kind of March 18th promotion on Chippewa that they need some stiff to hold down one end of the bar?

Any interest in Saquon Barkley?
mushypeaches replied to Victory Formation's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
yes, let's please get back on the cycle of overpaying the most replaceable position in football. Should we also pursue Todd Gurley? Melvin Gordon? Mark Ingram? David Johnson?
