TroutDog Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) It’s clearly deserved, in my opinion. So many people here were bashing him but everything done last year was clearly done by design with a long term strategy in mind. I loved the plan from day one and love it even more now!

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 No brainer i know, but Beane's success will hinge on the success of Allen. Allen looks like a Franchise QB in the making so so far so good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark92 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) I believe Allen is a Franchise QB. He has all the skills, tools, athletic ability and personality. Is he raw..... Yes. Is he coachable..... Yes. Do we have a good group of coaches around him with a plan finally....... Yes. Do we have talent around him finally...... It looks like it. ?

Most of their focus is on the draft right now - but if they get a call or find out something is available they will look to make moves. Nothing is imminent. Don't feel there is glaring hole they need to fill right now. Will draft BPA every time. If they feel the draft is thin in an area, they focus more during FA to prevent that Edited March 15, 2019 by Reed83HOF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) 1 hour ago, Reed83HOF said: I have been, and so have some others, saying this for a while now. One thing I have been trying to point out is that both McD and Beane are highly respected as rising stars in their positions inside NFL circles. Fans have really had some puzzling assessments and hot takes from clearly not understanding what had to happen before this could happen. Truth is, people are starting to see what many others had already begun to see a while ago now. Beane is quickly rising to the top of the GM circles and some of the things he does better than most already is extracting max value our of trades and structuring team friendly contracts. People complain about Murphy for instance without realizing how team friendly the deal is for Beane to get out of it if he wants. Deals we signed this year, same thing. Kroft is essentially a 1 year deal with 2 follow on options. Beane is a witch, and I am 100% sold on him as a GM and McD as a coach. These two will be a tandem for this team for a LONG time.

Good post. There are probably better PURE PERSONNEL men at GM around the league. But in terms of being well rounded, knowing how to work contracts, knowing how to work trades, putting together a good staff, managing people, having a vision and demonstrating the discipline necessary to enact it, etc...I'll take Brandon Beane all day. Anyone who honestly, in their heart of hearts doesn't think Beane is doing a good job so far or think he should automatically be on the "hot seat" if the Bills don't get into the playoffs this year, just doesn't know what they're looking at. It's that simple. He's not perfect, nobody is. He said himself that they're not going to bat 1.00. But his hits far outweigh his misses at this point. We just finished year two of the McDermott/Beane era, and they've already cleaned up a terrible salary cap mess, completely changed the team culture, built the #2 ranked defense in the league, identified a franchise QB, and begun to build around said QB. They have done these things fearlessly, without flinching, without compromising their beliefs, and without regard to how much it might tick off some fans. If you can't give these guys credit for the job they've done so far, then I don't know what to tell you. All in on Beane and McDermott. All in. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Whaley built a playoff team but that was it. Beane is trying to build a perennial playoff team. He's found the biggest piece of the puzzle in the QB, at least we think and hope. How these other pieces fit could be the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWATeam Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 It's funny how the narrative has changed. Not too long ago, Beane was Mcdermott's hand picked puppet- and Mcdermott really ran the show. It was this big joke that we hired our coach before the GM. Well, it looks like Beane has seized control of this organization. Even without homer glasses, it looks like Beane might be a rock-star GM. Especially if he hit on Allen and can ride the coat tails of a franchise QB. Even the national media is catching on. I mean look at the contracts that he just gave out. Massively improved the team (IMO) without doing anything that could cause any financial pain down the road. Absolutely the formula for sustained success. Brandon Beane is killing it right now.
