QB/WR/LB FREE AGENT NEEDS

[DKBills25]

Hey bills fans 

So all this talk of free agents had me thinking of who our bills should bring in or what would be best for our team so I would like to know who for each position you would love to see our bills pick up in FA 

 I’d love to see 

QB:Bradford

WR: Landry 

LB: Bradham

2 out of 3 and I say we win FA

let me see who you guys would like to see become a Bill next year 

GO BILLS  

[H2o]

Bradham likely doesn't fit the character mold McDermott looks for, but he would be a good fit. I like Bradham, but I don't see him as a realistic play for us.

 

Bradford is the real life version of Mr. Glass. He wouldn't make it 6 weeks behind our OL. 

 

 Jarvis Landry. Not only is he another prima donna in the mold of OBJ, he's also the dirty bastard that basically ended AW's career. He will get big money from someone and it sure as hell won't be us.

1. Bradford-better shot at keeping Humpty Dumpty in one piece.

2. Landry-Tom yes, the punk no (Aaron Williams approves of this message).

3. Bradham-legal brushes/troubles eliminate him from the McD character guys list.

[MAJBobby]

QB - Josh McCown 

WR - Allen Robinson, Marquis Lee, Terrell Pryor (in order)

LB - skipping. Not a Great LBer UFA class IMO

DT - Star Lotulelei

I agree that the linebacker class isn't great but there are a few that have potential in the later rounds. 

I am in love with this DT class.  Wouldn't be surprised if we double dip in this class. 

The wide receivers are underwhelming but there are some talents there.  I'd prefer looking at the tight end class and potentially replacing Clay. 

This is a pretty darn good TE class to get their next Greg Olson for their new QB. 

Such a deep runningback class, could see us grabbing one in the 4th or 5th rounds.  There's so many, we could get a good one that late.  Hopefully finding what Karlos Williams could've been before he got fat.  

[Chosenone]

Tahir Whitehead would probably be a good addition to our defense. Or maybe we can swing a trade for Shaq Thompson or the Eagles Mychal Kendrick's? Kendrick's was on the trading block at one point and I believe they don't have a lot of cap space this off season? That would shore up OLB. Than we aim to draft a MLB.

Landry would be a major wide receiver upgrade talent wise.

Williams addressed the issue with his retirement, said he has no ill will towards Landry, and that he grew up loving those hits, and it would be hypocritical to hold a grudge against him for that hit.

Was that him just taking the high road? Maybe.

I remember when it happened, and Landry directly apologized during the game and publicly.

 

(This is all just me bringing up things regarding the situation)

 

Having said all that, I'm sure there are many Buffalo fans who will never forgive Landry, which is understandable.

There's also many who will complain about it, but forgive if he produces good numbers.

There's also many who probably feel like Williams, it was an unnecessary hit, but not something they hold a grudge over.

 

However, if this was the only knock on Landry, then I'm sure MCD might give him a look.

Unfortunately he's a diva, potential locker room personality issue, who comes with potential bad blood with the fans and players.

That's not what MCD seems to be about, and I would bet they don't even give him a call.

Landry would never come close to passing the McDermott/Beane merit badge test.

Landry is one of the only players that could erode my love for the Bills. I want nothing to do with him ever.  Bradford is solid, when he isn’t broken, he’s always broken.no thanks. 

 

Always loved me some bradham. Was pissed when we let him walk.  He’s exactly what this team needs.  Too bad McD won’t want him. 

[K-9]

Landry is a punk, pure and simple. I’d rather have signed Bryan Cox back in the day than that ahole. 

[KDIGGZ]

LANDRY????? WTF???  that would be like the Bills signing Bryan Cox back in the day.  no thanks

Oh I agree

I was trying trying to be objective in regards to his talents

 

I personally don't want him based on his general attitude, the Williams thing I'm indifferent to only because Williams publicly forgave him.

Landy is 99% not of their radar

I Like Bradford a lot but will they due to his injuries

What exactly did Bradham do to get in trouble.  

The need a mlb and dt or 2 

and another wr 

It will be very interesting how they spend their money

Gabriel is interesting , solves a few issues shouldn't break the bank 

[billsfan89]

QB- Keep Tyrod (Sorry Tyrod haters but with Smith off the table I don't see where the Bills can get a veteran upgrade better than Tyrod) and draft a rookie

LB- Anthony Hitchens or Shaq Barrett

DT- Star  Lotulelei 

Resign Gaines and your best backups and I think you go into the draft set up for success. You got your run stuffing anchor, plugged a hole at LB, and kept your second best corner.

Josh McCown is and upgrade, and will be much cheaper. 

 

Dont like any UFA LBers to give decent UFA Money 

 

Star yep i agree and think he will get 8-10 AVV

I don't think Star will get 8-10 AVV, I think 5-7 is much more likely. The DT market is flooded and guys who are only run stuffers at that position aren't valued compared to guys who can penetrate the pocket and rush QB's which Star can't do that well. 

 

I don't see Josh McCown as an upgrade at all. Considering the circumstances McCown had a good year with the Jets but the dude will 39 and his year was solid on a really bad team but he honestly is due for a regression esp factoring in his age. I think you aren't going to get McCown's production from 2017 in 2018, I think you see him regress to his mean. Give me Tyrod even for more cap space than McCown. 

 

As far as linebackers the Bills need to bring in 1 veteran, Milano is the only player at that position that you can count of starting going into 2018, you can't count on drafting 2 players at that position. You need to plug one of those holes before going into the draft.

...who knows?...Dennison was inconsistent as hell with his play calling......one week he would make an effort to utilize TT's mobility and there were some successful games....other weeks he did a 180..........hopefully the offensive scheme is a collaborative effort with Daboll having significant input to determine a possible fit......at the same time, I just don't see where the passing game could become a consistent weapon when called upon with regularity.........as has been commented on 8,483 times, the mental aspect of the game ala reads, progressions, anticipating/spotting receivers, etc continues to be a weakness IMO and I don't know how you overcome it after 7 years at this level....
