This was the year that supposedly got fixed. (??) Next year, the offense.. For as horrible as NP. WR’s & OL are, none of them gave up 47 points.. The D had no help out there spending the entire 1st half on the field. The offence didnt have a sustained drive until the 3rd quarter. The fact that the D gave up under 30 points in that 1st half is a good thing cause it could have been much worse with 0 offensive production. But same with the oline, they looked much worse because they were one dimensional because the Ravens just stacked the box to defend the run knowing that the QB is not a threat in the air and the WRs couldnt catch colds 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A flanker type back that is a good receiver, a TE, and obviously the Oline. Cooks also received a major deal carrying him through 2023 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreggTX Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 There are plenty of good WR's in the NFL. Quality OL are rare. I think the OL will be MUCH harder to fix, OP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they pick Bosa or Oliver, it would transform the D instantly. They can then add a DB and guard in FA as well. The one thing they will not do is draft a WR with 1st pick. There is no way that a true #1 receiver will be available in FA so how are they going to fix this position? Benjamin is surely gone after this year and then there is a pile of garbage that remains on the roster. Why does the WR need to be a first round pick? Many of the best WR's in the NFL now and in the past weren't first round picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although to be fair, it is one round of players versus 6 other rounds and UDFA's, so many more chances outside the first. My only point is, fixing the WR position is not just about a first round pick and that rosters are built by drafting well OUTSIDE the first round, not just the first round.

Comebackkid Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) everyone complains about the bills ability to draft/train/produce a good qb..but when was the last time the bills actually drafted/produced a good wr.

Big Blitz Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 The Ravens seemed to have addressed it as well. From WRs I couldn't even name to Crabtree and John Brown. Go best DE at 1. From there I'd prioritize the oline then just pick a hole any hole to fill. We'll be very active in FA. Defenses are easier to turn around. Olines need to develop. I see only one guy in this group being a starter next year plus maybe Teller. That is horrendous. No one looks forward to drafts like Buffalo fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domdab99 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 We don't need a complete overhaul of the WR group. Just one game-breaker - an Antonio Brown or Stefon Diggs would immediately make the rest of the group better. The opposing defenses will not be able to sit on them as much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a good TE is a QBs best friend, especially a young one and we haven't had a great TE sense Metzelars 11 hours ago, Buffalo Boy said: A Great QB throws his WRs open. Also, were was that NE short slant that allows the ball to come out immediately. Not a Peterman excuse post but Nate could have hit those. Allen is going to need to have a relief option frequently which I didn’t see yesterday. we cut Proehl, so we lost our Welker Still say we should bring back O'Leary, at least he can catch. 11 hours ago, John from Riverside said: Not understanding why we dont use our rb's more as receivers Not understanding why we dont put extra TE's on the field we just don't have the talent nor the line to give the QBs time.

Hebert19 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 While I agree it is the hardest to fix...I think if Allen starts the rest of the way we will see that jones and kerley are serviceable. Allen wint be afraid to throw the ball in tight windows like we have had for last 3 years including peterman. Ya. They dont get a ton of separation but a good passer passes them open.
