BillsFan3434 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 I don't want to make this sound like a postmortem, I want us to go to the Super Bowl and win it along with any other fan and think we have a legitimate shot at going to the divisional round this weekend. That being said, the road to the Superbowl is a tough one and the chances of us not only going to Foxboro and pulling out a win then elsewhere are very slim. I don't think I'm blowing anybody's minds by saying this. That being said, I think that leaves us with three options heading in to the off season, which would you rather see play out and give some insight as to why you feel that way. (To get this team to the point of going deep in to the post season, in particular). 1.) We are a few pieces away, get a quarterback in FA and get a lot of solid talent through the draft to fill our glaring holes (DT, DE/LB, WR, OT) 2.) Blow our draft pick load in the draft and get one of the top 3 quarterbacks and try to build around him in FA 3.) Tyrod got us to the playoffs, keep going with him and build talent and a better defense around him through the draft. I honestly think the 1 or 3 is our best option. We can get to the postseason with Tyrod, clearly, and he only started 14 games. I would rather have a QB that could get our offense in to the top 20, then we would have a mediocre offense and a top 10 defense (I think we are around #9 right now?). Get our defense top 5 through the draft. Lorax and KW might be on the way out due to age, so that makes DE/LB / DT a bigger need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrbojanglezs Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 1 or 2. We made the playoffs, monkey is off our back. Now build a winner that will go the distance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teddy KGB Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 (edited) I hope we can still blow our load with these later picks. Trading up to get to around 8 to ten where we already were would seem kinda odd #process Edited January 2, 2018 by Teddy KGB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seanbillsfan2206 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 9-7 might not be good enough next year. We need an upgrade at the QB position and our front 7 needs a lot of help. Get it done OBD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is well liked by teammates and doesn't turn the ball over. Bring in a FA. Someone like Keenum. Draft a rookie. Best guy starts...Taylor or the FA traded after camp. Fill holes with rest of draft picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at San Fran the minute they started their actual QB. Get a QB that should be the NO 1 objective this offseason ie does Taylor come back IF Andy Dalton doesnt pull a play out of his ass. Or get bailed out by a weak defensive holding call on the game sealing INt? Edited January 2, 2018 by MAJBobby 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatonka68 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Should do 1.5 1st round picks Maurice Hurst DT and Micah Kiser ILB Trade up to the top of the 2nd round for whatever QB falls into 2nd round, Rudolph, Finley, or Allen. sign a free agent QB or keep Tyrod for one more year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBonhamRocks Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Keep Taylor and blow that draft pick load. Unload Taylor once the rookie is ready, which will hopefully be before the trade deadline and right when another team sustains a QB injury and becomes desperate, or ideally after he shows he has surpassed him in the offseason.

Bill Murray Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 (edited) 3. TT is only 28 yrs old. If a QB you like falls, take him. Otherwise, dont reach and take BPA with all your picks. 13 minutes ago, SaviorPeterman said: Yes please.

The fact Dalton made a miracle throw and drought broken should not have ANY influence on the TT decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
