They are just as full of nobodies as buffalo. Their receiving core is just as bad as ours and so it their tight ends. Linebackers and ends.. we might even have the edge on that one. They have a pathetic roster just like buffalo, Arizona and even Tennessee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tampa, Jets, Bears- they all got better. Why can't we? We deserve much better. Seriously, is there a team that is garbage, worse than ours? Are we the least talented team in the NFL? How does that happen with high draft picks for 20 years, and free agency and salary caps? It is maddening! A big reason this happens is when you keep changing coaches, front office etc, then you start all over. So for all the folks calling to fire Beane and McD this will help extend the years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jags - 4 top ten picks in last 5 years Rams - 5 top ten picks in last 6 years Jets - 3 top ten picks in last 5 years Though these are estimates, you see the point. Teams that struggle get rewarded with high draft picks. The Bills have always competed at the 7-9 and 8-8 level. We need a chance to draft top 5. Be patient. What would you do with a top 5 pick or THE top pick this? Take the best pass rusher? Best OT? Trade down for a boatload of picks + a #1 the next year?

GrizzReaper Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 No team out there is as atrocious as our Bills as of today... I think Detroit looked horrible week 1 too though. I think right now we are in a spot where we have to look to the future. I think we are smack dab in the middle of a rebuild. So NEXT year... If things don't start looking good by then we'll we are screwed. This season? We are looking bad so far no doubt about it. My expectations for this team are very low... All I'm hoping for is the rookies to develop. That's what this year is about for me seeing the rookies grow. Next year I'll have some loftier expectations for them.

4th&long Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Bills are the worst team by far. They have a good shot at 0-16 and getting blown out every week. They are obviously tanking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low Positive Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Arizona is a big mess and they just spent a crap ton of money to Sam Bradford to start for a last place team. The Giants have a good defense but their line is as bad as ours. The Lions are also very bad; they gave up 48 points to the Jets at home. I’m not saying that we are not awful, but we have competition for the #1 pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do i pass your age sniff test? Perhaps yer senile. I apologize - it's horrible. The browns are stacked with young talent because they did not go roughly .500 every damned year. We have our QB now and need a ton more. Winning 7 games this year is about the worst thing we could do with regards to our 2021 season . Play hard, grow and then parlay those draft picks plus good draft slot. Or go be a browns fan. Whatever works I guess. Jeez.

TFBillsfan Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 We certainly look like a top draft pick contender this year which is a first for me. Next year, you draft and add the following thru FA. WR, OT, OLB, CB, C and OG. If the Bills could just have a positive impact in these positions, 2019 should show much different results. Personally, I would not address the DL. Hughes, Shaq, Murphy, Star and Phillips are sufficient. DE would be a priority in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEBills Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Raiders are the worst off overall bc their owner is poor. They will move to Vegas and be a little better with cash flow. But they are stuck in a cash to cap mentality and have already blown their money on Gruden and Carr, neither of which are very good. This bye bye to Mack. Arizonas defense has played a little better but they’ve actually scored less points than us. I think they are a little more talented but coaching is not very good and Bradford looks like crap. id put us at third worst due to all of our dead cap. Also not sure about our talent evaluators/GM to build the team up. Though I do love Allen as a QB and hope we can help him before we ruin him.

Pete Posted September 18, 2018 Author Share Posted September 18, 2018 Tre'davious, Allen, and Edwards are a great core to build around. Dawkins, Milano, Harrison, Poyer, Hyde are great Bills.

San Fran is like 6 and 1 going back to last year with jimmy G at the reigns with there 1 loss being a nail biter against a super bowl contender on the road. I can’t say I see the comparison.

We also lost our best two oline men - and we did not fix our our receivers. In a nutshell, we broke our dumb playoff streak and have a slight hangover now - this was a rebuilding year either way though. Meh. Watch the youth develop. Hopefully this is 1986 all over again.

We have a promising young QB, cap space next year, and lots of players with the right mindset. They are trying to do things the right way this time, unlike in the past when we have operated in a "win now" mode with regards to player acquisition. In other words, hopefully setting us up for sustained success in the future. Things could be a lot worse.
