PetermansRedemption Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I’m sure they will add to the DL next month. Im not sure it’ll be through free agency. Very confident pick 9 is going DL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The quality of the defensive tackles and ends is very high in this draft 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheesus Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 This is a very general statement haha, title should be changed to "in fa or draft per beane". Sounds like #Bills likely will add on d-line in free agency or draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s obvious are looking at DL in the draft - they are looking at everything except QB and have tons of picks.

Whether they sign anyone, tbd I believe he said he was in a holding pattern right now and they were likely done looking at FA DL at this point, but maybe after the draft (seems like he was open to picking up someone who might be available via trade or getting cut as a result of a team drafting a younger player). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said there are a couple other guys, in addition to Ansah (whether they sign him or not) who they are looking at and in a holding pattern (like with Ansah). Sounds like he’s waiting for their price to come down - and won’t overpay to get them before the draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Buffalo has 3 quality DTs on the roster now, and they need four for the rotation they want to run. They have three quality defensive ends. Shaq Lawson is going into the fourth year of his rookie deal, and it's not guaranteed the Bills will pick up his fifth year option. Trent Murphy is in the middle of a three year deal, but given his health issues last season it's uncertain he'll survive to play out the last year of his deal. Jerry Hughes will be 31 in the upcoming season and his contract expires. While Eddie Yarbrough is a likeable player, that doesn't change the fact that he's a fringe guy. The bottom line is it's a no brainer to assume that Beane is not done addressing the defensive line this off season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they asked Beane about extending him the first thing he said is how much they respect him and he’s the vet leader now with Kyle gone. Knowing how much they value having a vet leader in each position group I could see them try to extend him at least 1 year if not 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IgotBILLStopay Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Ansah (FA), Quinnen Williams / Ed Oliver (Rd 1), One guard and one WR / TE from Lindstron / McCoy / Jordan / Marqise Brown / AJ Brown / Irv Smith/ Noah Fant in rounds 2 and 3 will be just perfect. The go LB and ST in rounds 4-7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
