Call_Of_Ktulu Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 (edited) Clowney gets solid sack numbers and gets a lot of pressures. He also plays the run well, if we can somehow get this guy without giving up a 1st Beanie could be GM of the year.

Utah John Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I think what's giving Beane pause is Allen. If Allen is The Guy, the Bills are a couple of great players from real success, and then it makes sense to get Clowney. If Allen just never gets it, Beane will need his capital to move on in the 2021 draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, we can watch him walk at the end of the season, and sign with New England. GET IT DONE, BEANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Worked really well for kelvin Benjamin. What was the movie with the 14 year old baseball manager who asks the ace pitcher what the going rate for a pitcher who just mails it in is? Nothing. Clowney is staring at a 150 million dollar contract. He’s gonna get 15 sacks this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to draft a DE instead of very expensive Clowney, jmo No need to worry. This team is being constructed so that they can afford an elite free agent DE and still pay all the guys you mentioned when their contracts are up. Keep in mind that Murphy and Hughes will very likely be gone by the time the big contracts for our youth core are needed. Lotulelei will have a very manageable cap hit by then as well. If Beane does end up trading for Clowney, I'm confident that he already thought about this and plans to keep all of White, Edmunds, Allen, Dawkins, Milano, Oliver, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t be so sure of yourself. Everybody knows drafting a QB is a crap shoot. They have done a LOT right, and if they continue on this trajectory, I’d give them another shot at QB if Josh isn’t the guy. I think the Pegulas as smart people and probably agree. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just last night, after dinner at our house, my youngest was asking his GF’s dad for his blessings as he intends to propose. Her dad said “no way in hell!” OK, maybe it was more like “I was wondering when you’d get around to this.” It seems like he was teething just last week in some ways.

Meaning the team outright fails or quits versus a rash of bizarre injuries. The Pegula's surely realize that turning over the staff every three years does not make Buffalo a desirable stop for new potential candidates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That's No Moon Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 1 hour ago, aceman_16 said: Lol okay... revisionist history at it's worst. OK. They were #2 in yards allowed. They were #18 in points allowed. Let's talk about that. They played the #3, #4 (x2), #5, #8, #9, #11, #13, and #15 offenses last year. They were 0-9 in those games and they allowed 247 points in those games. 27.4 points per game. They also managed to lose to the #23 and #26 offenses while surrendering 24 points per game in those games (27 and 21 respectively. The offenses they beat were ranked 19, 23, 24, 26, 27, and 31. What this means, in short, is they lost to every single average or above offense they played last season and also lost to 2 poor offenses. But you're right. I'm revising history to make them sound bad. In reality they were tearing it up. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mramefa Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I would give up some value for Clowney, even though it would be a one-year deal. I'd make the bet that once he's in Buffalo and gets to see the environment, facilities, and fanbase firsthand, that there's a solid chance he'd want to sign a long-term deal afterwards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
