Richardson, Okafor and Gaines have been on my have to have list this offseason. 

 

See, Okafor is the only one of those three that I count as "underrated".

 

Richardson (Paul), as you know, has been my #1 target for the Bills since November.

I don’t disagree with that. They had Norwell on there!!

 

Okafor was playing really well before he got hurt. He’s also my friend’s cousin so I kind of want him on the Bills for that reason too.

Oh I had quite the laugh at Norwell; he's probably going to get north of $10M AAV as a guard--underrated?!?!

Alex Okafor is a guy I really would love to see brought in. Even if we draft a QB I love the idea of McCown or Keenum as the starter. I think the team could still be very competitive and their good culture guys.

 

Paul Richardson I'd want but I think he will end up being a bidding war and Mike Wallace could do the same for less.

I agree with you on both of those points....I think Richardson adds a dimension to the Bills WR corps that is truly needed.

Haven't read it yet, but guys that have been on my list include:

 

Brice Butler

DaQuan Jones

Justin Ellis

Anthony Hitchens

If we can't get Star from Carolina than DaQuan becomes my number 1 target in free agency, assuming we re-sign Gaines.

To me it's gaines, then the rest.

I think he's our #1 FA priority.

The rest of the list are nice players, but we are good at safety (unless the vet Graham is willing to be a non starter/sub in for specific packages at a good price), DLine and OLine guys would be big too, but I'm still set on Gaines first

I am a fan of Paul Richardson as well. It seemed like Seattle only used him as a deep ball threat but he can do a lot more. Seattle had trouble running the football this year and he was Wilsons 3rd target on offense. 

 

I think as a number 2 WR he could put up 65 900 9 easily.

Dion Jordan is an intriguing player.  Third overall pick by Miami in 2013, missed a season due to substance abuse violations.  Tremendous potential if he stays clean/ no more off-field issues.  We took a shot on Incognito and it paid off.

Some of the guys on this list would be good targets for the Bills. 

He's got quite a few guys on this list that will get paid. This isn't no under rader list.

I like both of their fits in the D.  Also, fills a couple needs.

Good article, a name I didn't know of that sounds decent is Avery Williamson maybe to replace LorAx on 1st and 2nd downs. 

 

I'd take Williamson for the right price, certainly.  He fits the McDermott mould - smart, versatile, grinder, some speed.

Agree 100%, he would be the most complete receiver that we have. He has run a lot of deep routes but is capable of running the whole tree. A nice fit as the #2.
