Saffold s a massive upgrade. I did not think we had a realistic chance, but now with reports saying he isn't going back to LA, we have as good a chance as any. 

 

Having his college OL coach in the fold can't do anything but help.

Jets fans think they are getting him..

 

And Paridis lol...

 

 

 

I think they definitely get Paradis, there is the Gase connection and he is a perfect fit for their zone based scheme. Saffold fits well there as well. Not sure they get both. I'd prefer Mitch Morse and Daryl Williams though.

Still think JaWuan James is the guy Buffalo ends up with.

 

I'm fine with Daryl too though.

 

Starting to feel better about the depth at center in the draft though. If they can come away from FA with a starting RT and guard (even if it's Q Spain), then I'll be encouraged. Get a center on day 2 (any of Risner or Eric McCoy would do).

I'd be satisfied and optimistic that they will get one of those 4 you mention...( two would be a dream and isn't happening to the Bills..)

 

They will probably then end up with another "second tier" Free Agent like Veldheer...

 

The remaining hole gets filled with their first pick, or trading up into the bottom of the first with their second... They will have identified someone they like, and wont be hanging around until 40 to pull the trigger...

I know, but my point was that if the Bills were going to pay an older vet OG big money, why the need for the pro bowl OG incognito to take a pay cut?

Because there were obviously bigger issues with Ritchie than just his age.  

 

Saffold is 30.  By the time his huge contract ends 5 years from now, he’ll be Ritchie current age.  5 years difference

And hopefully FAR more stable.

Yes, that and Richie was throwing dumbbells at people at the gym and has bigger problems than football

Is “playing well with others” part of “the process”?

I would like 2 high profile signings to the oline.  Safford is one of the better players available and a big need.  I would argue that he helps Dawkins at LT too.  Also  I think they bring in a TE and Wr as well.  I think Buffalo will be aggressive and narrow in on who they want quickly.  I could see 3 to 4 signings coming quickly than more methodical after the first wave of signings.

I would like to see

 

Darryl WIlliams

Roger Saffold

Paridis or Morse

A trade for DE Clarke

 

Then a trade down that allow us to still get Hock in the 1st round.....a WR and a C  in round 2.....a running back in round 3

 

What you said- 

 

Trade down to 15 with the Skins for 1-15, 2-15

 

1-15- Hock

2-9 (for Clark)

2-15- Harry/Samuel/Harmon

3-9- Damian Harris/Devin Singletary

Trading for Clark is not happening.
