Also guys like Golden Tate, Chris Hogan, Quincy Enuwa, Ryan Grant would make my short list as guys I see that are better than our depth guys. While I like Holmes as a ST, he just not producing enough in passing game. Sorry about your sorry list of FA. I have higher standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of these guys will re-sign, but there's plenty out there. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2783459-an-early-look-at-the-2019-nfl-free-agent-class#slide3 1. Odell Beckham Jr., New York Giants2. Brandin Cooks, Los Angeles Rams3. Stefon Diggs, Minnesota Vikings4. Golden Tate, Detroit Lions5. Larry Fitzgerald, Arizona Cardinals The top five free-agent wide receivers only scratch the surface of potential movement. Beckham, Cooks and Diggs are 25 years old or younger and established No. 1 targets. Tate is the game's best after the catch. Fitzgerald will again consider retirement next offseason, but three straight 100-reception seasons say he's far from done. Randall Cobb, Kelvin Benjamin, Devin Funchess, Martavis Bryant, Jermaine Kearse, Rishard Matthews, Donte Moncrief, Cole Beasley, Tyler Lockett and Tyrell Williams are wonderful second-tier options. Whatever skill a team lacks in its passing game, it can find in free agency next year. Beckham, Diggs and Cooks have already re-signed. Fitz isn’t finishing his career in Buffalo and Tate is likely staying in Philly. On 10/31/2018 at 9:10 AM, GunnerBill said: The problem with the theory is the FA OL class is where the options are. The FA WR class is not good. This times 1,000,000x. People get so set in how they think a roster should be built. I always encourage people to look at the names and not the position. You don’t take QB if EJ Manuel is the best QB in the draft. You don’t focus your FA efforts on WR when there isn’t anyone to fill your need at the top of the depth chart. The talent available shapes the plan not the other way around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridiculous athlete who isn't really getting a ton of chances to shine with KC. He's a good guy and a smart guy who is a bit quirky and I think he would be well liked in Buffalo. I thought he was really interesting in the draft a few years ago. He has upside if he can put things together. 6-3, 4.35 forty with a 45 inch vert. He's played well when guys have been hurt and out but he is a bit buried in KC. I could certainly get behind signing Conley.... but you need a #1 too. I think gambling on him to be that would be an error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Some of you amaze me. The Bills have literally ZERO on offense and yet you still find reason after reason to reject every suggestion of a possible upgrade....all the while blaming the current front office for NOT bringing in any upgrades! Come on Man! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Formation Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I'd bring Ryan Fitzpatrick back, trade for him if you have to. Then I'd sign Ryan Kalil to start at C. Then in the draft I'd take Marquise Brown, I think he has elite #1 potential and then by that point Zay should be coming along as a solid #2. Whole OL needs to be gutted, I'd keep Dawkins, Mills, Teller and Bodine but would definitely need to spend multiple draft picks here. Tavon Austin is a guy I'd offer a deal as well and shouldn't cost too much, could be a solid #3 and return man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I think we might have to take a leap of faith on a Josh Gordon or Martavis Bryant. Perhaps there is a trade to be made somewhere out there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use premium assets (both draft picks and cap space to sign UFAs) to build up the offense in support of Allen's development next year and beyond.

We can do all these things, once again though I see a strong need for a scrappy veteran at QB, someone that could start if needed. I don't think that's even debatable honestly, no better guy than Fitz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
