mellaman101 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 The guy put it to the sky... A 0-8 start and a 2 or 3 win season.... Why be mad Buffalo....????? The guy said TANK IT.... That would give us the top 3 pic and we are looking right at 68 million under the cap... We got our QB of the future and a very young D man who may be a game changer... So I checked out some prospects for 2019 draft day... Most draft sights got us from 2 to 4 with Miami having the #1 pick and got us taking Oliver.... In 2017, Oliver had 73 tackles with 16.5 tackles for a loss, 5.5 sacks, three passes batted and two forced fumbles. The 6-foot-1, 290-pounder dominated at the point of attack in 2016, starting from his debut game against Oklahoma. All season, the freshman overwhelmed offensive linemen with his quickness, athletic ability, and physicality. He totaled 66 tackles with 22.5 tackles for a loss, five sacks, three forced fumbles and nine passes batted on the year.

Fadingpain Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 A guy like Oliver is not a difference maker on an otherwise bad team, or team without a QB. You say we have our QB of the future. Do we? What's his name? You don't mean Allen do you? Jury is out on him, big time. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I mentioned in another post, I can see them starting the season 3-3. Balt, SD and Tenn. The Bills as of recent years seem to start off better than most pundits think. First 7 games last 4 seasons: 2014/ 4-3, 2015/ 3-4, 2016/4-3, 2017/ 5-2 Edited July 24, 2018 by billsbackto81 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine anyone really thought the bills would win in atlanta last year. i sure didn't. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlottebillsfan2 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Nah I'd prefer a 10 win playoff season with $68 million under the cap next year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I don't want to lose this season but if we start say 2-6.... I am not sure I want them to desperately try and rescue the season either. The priority if we start off bad is getting some idea what we have in Josh Allen. I think he might get in reasonably early but if we are at something like 2-6 they should put him in and open up the playbook. Don't try and protect him from mistakes by coaching him to be safe let him sling it. If the Bills do go 3-13 or 4-12 (think they will be a bit better than that) but Allen has shown some real flashes of being a franchise Quarterback in waiting then I am okay with that as a season because we will be well set to take a big step next year. If we are 7-9 but still have no real idea on Allen because he played a maximum of 1 or 2 games at the end then I think that is worse case scenario. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said before, I'll say again - I think there's a reason Beane fought so hard to keep our 2019 draft board intact. It's not 'cause he thinks we're a sho-in to draft in the bottom half of the 1st round again. I'm not saying they intend to tank, I'm just saying he knows a lot of things have to fall our way for us to meet or improve on last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
