Popular Post BillyWhiteShows Posted April 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 27, 2019 Take this for what you will. Probably one of the most reliable, informed, and well-connected Bills reporters has great things to say about what Beane and McDermott have done over the past 3 years. 39 17 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 The truth will come from the W-L record but man does Wawrow seem to be right. I can’t remember an offseason where there has been so much momentum going into the season. The Bills had a tough year last year but emerged from it with Josh Allen taking steps forward. With the exception of a true #1 WR on the roster they have addressed gaps and in many cases with more than one potential starter. WR aside, as I think they will get production out of the group they have, the only real question remaining after last season is will special teams improve? The Bills were flat out awful at ST’s last season. The flip side of this is that the D returns nearly intact and should only be better with Oliver at the 3T. This D has the potential to be scary good. 11 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magox Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Couldnt agree more. I've been making the exact same points for a while now. This is what a real GM with a vision looks like. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thurman#1 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I agree. Avoiding the quick fixes and haven't mortgaged the future. Still a lot to prove, but they look good. A far better big-picture sense of how to go about this than any regime since the '90s.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 And in taking those "lumps" they still managed to win 15 games in two years and end the playoff drought. Good times ahead. 12 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL many here have wanted them both fired and were like “We never should’ve gotten rid of Doug Marrone” or”Doug Whaley was a better GM than Beane”. ?????? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atlbillsfan1975 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 This is exactly right. To have a front office who sees a drafts strengths and weakness ahead of time. Sees depth and value can be had in different rounds is what has been lacking. Beane and McDermott are on the same page. I think McDermott and his OC are working together to identify needs and expressing those to the front office and they are executing. Great things ahead for this team.

NewEra Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 How can this be true? We passed on DK Metcalf TWO times and didn’t trade up for him a 3rd 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recievers and pass rush still concern me, not sure they have enough there, more so at reciever, but assuming Allen continues to progress there should be no reason this team isnt competing for a playoff spot come late December. I wanted a WR too but the truth of the matter is, if they draft a rookie WR in Round 3 it is going to tough to get him snaps on the field. The WR is crowded for next year, and hopefully in 2020 there were be some good options 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
