Get a franchise QB and build around him. Beane has followed that philosophy, making sure he targeted the QB a year before he had the money to follow the Patriots model. Meanwhile, the Jets decided to follow the Washington model instead of the New England one. We are on the same page, two posts apart. The Pats are a 20 year dynasty and have had one dynastic player, with only a few elite players along the way around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 My vote will always be getting a third round pick for that piece of garbage we had at QB. 8 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still........ incredibly high rate of moves that the Bills "win" the trade. I remember watching the draft last year (when we drafted Allen and Edmunds) and thinking to myself that Beane is just incredible. It was masterful. Everything was thought out multiple steps ahead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed look at our 2019 draft 5 of the 7 players are contributing alot or starting. Add in Duke with Bates and what a gell of an influx of young guys' 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those were great and he's done a lot of great things, IMO. But getting Taylor out of Orchard Park made me giddy. Getting a 3rd round pick for such a crappy QB was magical. The moment I saw the alert pop up my phone was the happiest I've felt as a Bills fan in 20+ years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trading a 7th for a former 1st rounder was a shot worth taking even with the unfortunate cap hit. Amazing thing is a 7th usually is a throw out pick with less than a 10% hit rate & Beane looks like he hit a homerun with Darryl Johnson and then came back up to bat and got at least a base hit with Tommy Sweeney. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Otreply Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Yup, the Bates trade was very good, I asked the group in another thread if anyone knew if he could play RT, no one answered, well, Beane answered and I / we were not paying attention, the answer was YES he can. I really like this teams HC and GM, they know what they’re doing. And they know why they’re doing it. Go Bills!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) It's the Jon Feliciano signing. Now I know he is a Bobby Johnson guy, but his signing changed a lot in my view. He was not on anyone's radar and I don't think anyone thought he was really going to start, but that guy has been the glue that brings an attitude adjustment to the offensive line. He's nasty, but he's good to, plus he's versatile. He's my unsung, under the radar big time move. Edited October 7, 2019 by MrEpsYtown 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artem Lipatov Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Recently was a thread Beane was seen at college football match. It means he goes personally to scout college talents. I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he did play very well at RT once he went in. I think he is more ready to play RT than Ford is at this point. He played better than Ford or Ty Nsekhe have played at that spot.
