Then you must also be good in signing free agents. And, having a good QB is also good, whether you draft him or get him in free agency. Oh yeah, a good coaching staff also helps. That, and this ashtray is all the Bills need now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numark Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) One team had a great defense and then convinced a top 3 QB of all time to come sign with them. They then provided him an ungodly amount of top weapons, while letting their defense go to crap. The other team got extremely lucky on a number of late picks in the draft Edited January 27, 2014 by Numark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobobonators Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Maybe not most everything, but more right than wrong. Indeed. Irony is that seattle drafted high on oline and that may be weakest side of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Maybe not most everything, but more right than wrong. and the more you get wrong the bigger your victories have to be. getting sherman and wilson are HUGE wins, even though they missed on a handful of big moves.

SF Bills Fan Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 For the Broncos, it was all about Manning. Then they made another good move with Welker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 well, even without welker, they assembled a very good roster before manning. Exactly. They made it to the divisional round with Tebow at QB. I presume the assembled talent was a significant reason for Manning's decision to go with Denver.

JPS Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 For the Broncos, it was all about Manning. Then they made another good move with Welker. And Decker in the 3rd, Julius Thomas in the 4th, Travathan in the 6th, Malik Jackson in the 5th, Knighton as FA, 2 starters on the Oline as a FA....Champ Bailey via trade and 5 other DBs via FA......but other than that...your right...it's all Manning. The Broncos have done everything right for the past 3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume the assembled talent was a significant reason for Manning's decision to go with Denver. to the latter, i thought at the time he (or atleast those close) were very explicit that it was a huge part of the decision. essentially, he was the final piece to the super bowl ready roster. very good defense, big LT, lots of WR talent Edited January 27, 2014 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterpan Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Bills fans think we have a great draft when we get Kiko and Woods and Goodwin in one draft. These teams get 3x that in 3 consecutive drafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These teams get 3x that in 3 consecutive drafts. if we hit on EJ, and then get a similar quality of 3 starters each of the next two years, we will be every bit as good.
