WOW!

 

I really like these moves. Matthews is really solid. No idea about Gaines, but a second and a third are great pickups.

 

Darby was gross last year and I love Sammy, but he's a huge risk. Probably figured we were not going to take that risk in the offseason, so to get a second and a CB for him now is great.

These guys are clueless.

 

That's why. I had my suspicions with some moves made in the offseason, this confirms it.

 

Just another dud brought to buffalo. It's !@#$ing incredible how inept everyone in that organization is.

 

So when chandler jones gets traded coming off an excellent season, for a 2nd round pick - its a smart plan.

Don't mind the Darby trade, not even initially. Hated the Sammy trade at first, mostly because he is so fun and entertaining to watch when he is on the field, and when he is healthy and gets the ball thrown his direction, he can change the game.

 

But...

 

This was Sammy's last year with us anyway. No way we were paying him. Might as well get something in return while we can.

 

Darby was Darby. Great at times and awful at times. White, Seymour and Gaines actually give us a solid top 3 at CB. I'm not worried about that position now.

 

We have two picks in each of the first three rounds

 

Mostly I like it because these are not moves our previous leadership would have made. They're not trying to win 9 or 10 games and sneak into the wildcard (though I believe that is exactly what will happen this year). They are trying to build a foundation and make this team competitive for years to come. That means you have moves like this that sting, but I'll take that if we can be consistently good. Good teams build through the draft and now we can do that.
