Half of me thinks Mccoy gets the first month of next year to prove this year was the Olines fault. And half of me thinks the Bills wish they pulled off a trade at the deadline and they go young at RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrinks Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Bodine is backup caliber at best, I can see why CIN wasn’t too upset about letting him go. As a starter, he’s the type of player that you are always looking to replace. He’s better than Groy as a backup, but that’s about it. The Bills need to be able to protect the middle of the pocket so Allen can climb it and make plays. If they don’t fix this weakness, he’ll be taking off running far too often. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he shows up a little more in the passing game here the last 3 games, maybe. I think we bring in at least 1 stud outside WR. Then we have Zay (who they gave up some important assets for) and Foster. That doesnt leave a lot of room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see center as in crying need of an upgrade. For me, Allen, Foster, Croom and McKenzie (in packages but perhaps not as the 1st guy out there), Dawkins, Jones and maybe Teller. I think guards are going to be brought in and it will be a fight for Teller to see the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this might not be a popular opinion.....but I think McKenzie is def creeping up on Zay Jones for that slot receiver position...... I dont like it when draft picks dont work out either....the fact is McKenzie makes more plays and is more flexible for the offense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think Mills is that bad I just think these guys in charge want 53 players that they brought here. It’s felt to me from day 1 that: Beane and Mcd would rather lose with their own guys then win with someone else’s. Which is very upsetting. The Whaley guys were probably the biggest reason we made it last year but they have been systematically squeezed out. Iirc Dawkins did not play well on the right side.

Our WRs will be rotated and moved around to maximize their skill setd I believe. They may not break the bank on a WR(I hope they do or Draft a really good one). I tend to look at what NE has done over the years, I do realize Allen has a stronger arm than Brady. Outside of Moss they really havent had many HOF ouside recieving threats that were significant in their O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad johnson, Cooks, Amendola, Gordon etc They make an effort to have big time WRs it just doesn’t always fit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadonkadonk Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 (edited) Allen Dawkins Jones and Foster to start the season but rookie draft pick will get equal reps McCoy Sadly, either Mills or Bodine Croom will be on the team but not as the starter Teller has a chance but he has been moatly terrible so far as a rookie. Just depends where they go in FA Edited December 15, 2018 by Dadonkadonk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zay and McKenzie fit this mould I believe. The Moss and Gordon types arent necessary. Good TEs and pass catching RBs are important as well. Allen has a much stronger arm though. It is important that we get a reliable TE and another good WR. Allen really has to learn to pass with touch as the majority of this offense is quick timing routes.

JoeF Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Every position other than QB on the starting offense is a position of need and backup QB is also an important need. Actually, it feels pretty good to type that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Allan in MD Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 10 hours ago, Thriftygamer83 said: The offensive line will have a year of maturity to it. Hard telling where they will be next year. Could pass on guys who just needed that year. Juan Castillo has an eye for the offensive line and knows how to motivate his players. My guess is next year will make a difference in what he gets out of them. There's nothing mature about this very offensive line. That's why with a very few exceptions, they should mostly be gone by next season. 10 hours ago, Capco said: I haven't really heard much about Mills' play this season. Is it possible that he remains as a serviceable RT or is he so god awful that he needs to go? I still think the FO goes hard for a new center if the Panthers' blueprint is any indication of how much they value the position. Watch Mills on passing downs. He's still a well oiled turnstile. When he goes, that's a sign the OL is finally progressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can add a legit #1 , i really like #1,Zay,Foster,McKenzie. Most important thing is solidifying the OL though and Beane set this roster up to have a ton of flexibility in what will be the most important off season in the last 20 years, because it can set us up to be legit contenders 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil The Thrill Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 If we are taking starters, I think there are only 2 guarantees: Allen Dawkins I think there’s a decent chance these players either start or get a lot of time: Teller Jones Foster I see these players getting situational plays. They’ll stay on the team but probably not considered for starting roles: McKenzie Croom Bodine McDermott Ivory The rest of the players are up in the air. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
