TDTT Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I am a big fan of BPA in the draft. I would like to stick to that plan and do as much to address the offense in free agency as possible. We've got the cap space so let's get some bonafide offensive stars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Actually......more quality offensive linemen and pass catchers looks more appealing And of course you can use one of those trade down picks on a pass rusher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjd1001 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I'm totally fine with trading down. I'll be fine with them standing where they are also. This team has so many holes/needs that trading down will work for me. But, they also have a lot of cap room to fill those holes. I really don't see the need to get upset at either option.

SCBills Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Our defense is “good enough”. Doesn’t mean they are elite, but they have Top 10-12 potential next year when Edmunds has a year under his belt. Allen has zero help. Foster/McKenzie are the only guys he can count on. Until I see 2-3 new OL, 2 new WRs and a new TE, I don’t care to discuss defensive help. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobbRiddick Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I used to be a big believer in defense wins championships, but the way the NFL is now, that's history. I'd draft offense all the way. Doesn't matter if you give up points, just score a ***** load yourself and you'll win plenty of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEpsYtown Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Josh Allen is my guy. Love the way he plays and is a very versatile piece on defense. I wish we could have Bosa, but it seems unlikely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Kelly Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 (edited) Best player available that suits our needs. Wish we had more 2nd rounders this draft. Expect McBeane will take a balanced approach, I'm confident they have the foresight to look beyond 2019. Call me a kool-aid drinking homer but I'll root for whoever pulls on a Bills helmet.

HappyDays Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I know most will disagree but I think our defense is good enough as is right now. There are no elite defenses left in the NFL. I still think we should go all out on offense next year. Trade down, grab a bunch of pass catchers and linemen. Do the same thing in free agency with our immense amount of available cap space. A stud pass rusher would be nice but that's more a luxury than a necessity in the modern NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I would draft a Milano type pass rusher in the middle rounds to develop OR go after a proven vet in free agency we need offense and lots of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm. Even the best offensive teams have one. If Hughes and Zo were 3 years younger I'd say not a need. But imagine how toothless this defense looks if they both hit the wall next year (and it is quite likely). They need a young pass rusher in the first 3 rounds for me and it has to be a guy who can be explosive either off the edge or from the middle of the defense, even if he is raw in other areas that need development.

Pass rusher is a need, it's just not going to improve us enough to make a difference next year. Allen doesn't have perfect ball placement and likely never will. I want receivers that have a big catch radius, or just consistently catching passes that hit their hands would be a start. Same goes for a tight end. Where we'll be picking BPA will probably be defense so I would trade down if at all possible. Overall we have drafted well the past 2 years. I'd rather fill 4 holes on day 1 and 2 than fill 3 holes with our first pick being Greedy Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in the thick of Steeler country, have friends that know him from his days at South Allegheny high school, and watch them play every Sunday. Not to disappoint. but if you're looking for a true #1 TE it's not James. He's a complimentary player in a great offense, who has been phased out since the end of last season for the likes of Vance McDonald. Again, depends what the team is looking for from their TEs, but knowing Dabolls background, I think they look for a better option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I’m all about BPA this year. We can certainly use any of the following with our first pick: Pass Rush Corner opposite Tre Offenive Lineman True #1 WR There will certainly be an elite prospect at one of those positions when we pick. Personally I think it will be pass rush or a WR. Im also very on board with a trade down though if there are several guys they like and grade out close and feel they can get one and still pickup some extra picks. If we trade down, I would prefer to stay in top 15 if we can and pick up at least another 2nd or more depending how far we moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HomeskillitMoorman Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) If we get a top pick and a top edge rusher is on the board, I'd go for it. I think the D needs one. I don't think that compromises building the offense and I wouldn't let an elite talent go just because it's not our most glaring need.

Is it really as pressing of a need? I am not so sure Gunner......our offense is actually quite horrible.....where as our defense is servicable. Could it use some more players? Sure but I dont know if those players should come at the top of the draft. I am actually hoping the draft is strong on defense early....pushing offensive players down to us and allowing u to trade down to get more high picks on offense. We do need more pass rush......
