I hope we don’t resign Lorax and roll the rest. Eventually you need to sign a couple good players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson showed during preseason he will be groomed to take Poyers spot. Im not saying Poyer isnt good but i dont see him as a game changer. I'm not so sure. When Poyer is a free agent he will be playing at 30. I'm not sure what the compensation for a 30 y/o defensive back is, but it won't break the bank. Hyde will be even older when he would become a free agent. I think if they're happy here they both play out their careers here. It seems like that is the situation this front office is constantly trying to arrange. Affordable extensions in free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seahawks and Russel Wilson being the example. Agreed! That’s is the best way to have a 10 year run! Hitting on the QB gets you the extra 5 years.

BILLSCRAZY3024 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Jesus! PLZ BEANE!!!!! Sign AJ already and let’s get this thing working! WTF are we doing? This is the thing about the BILLS. They always wait too damn long to make moves. PLEASE BEANE! Jump on AJ and don't look back. Think about the future of our beloved team. He is a good player who needs a good team and coaching staff which we have. DO THE DEAL! WTF ARE WE WAITING FOR!!!!! Also, we have to let TJ Yeldon go. He should of been released before Shady but what’s done is done. Yeldon has been a bust for us. Move on Beane. Get AJ and look at another RB in the draft. Singletary has it. Develop him. Ugh! This team frustrates me when they go on careful conservative mode! F THE PATRIOTS! Build this team to be a killer and they will kill the Patsies. You're so close......

I actually think Jordan Phillips is better that Harry Phillips. For all the talk about space eaters he’s way larger that Star and has a better motor in the middle than everyone but Ed.

Nextmanup Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 The dimwits who run this league are slowly realizing that it sometimes make more sense to act aggressively now, rather than act cautiously for a future they may well not be a part of. Swing for the fences while you are employed to do so, and have a chance to benefit from the swing. Keeping capital in reserve for a future you are not part of may help the team, but it won't help YOU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost can’t believe that with the work he has done in Cleveland. I mean trade after trade for overpriced veterans and no team continuity - what was KC thinking. ?

Chandler#81 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 On 10/25/2019 at 2:54 PM, Hapless Bills Fan said: I don't think that's the full story on Dorsey " fired as GM of the Chiefs in June 2017, six months after the team finished a 12-4 season and less than two months after he drafted Patrick Mahomes". The Chiefs had salary cap issues. Bad salary cap issues. There were conflicts where allegedly Reid had been promised control over personnel matters but Dorsey had been promised the same personnel control as other GMs. Basically I think it was more a "personality conflict" thing with cap issues tossed in. It may not be the ‘full story’, but it’s a legit narrative. Thanks for the article @ChevyVanMiller. Insightful. Under these premises, I think today’s outcome may be critical to Beane & Company. We win, we’re very likely a 12 win team, putting us deep down the Draft selection number. Little to no chance of selecting a stud WR or Edge Rusher. Lose, and it could be a dog fight for a Wild Card. With Tuesday’s Trade deadline, I think today’s outcome goes a long way toward making our 1st Round pick tradable for Immediate team upgrade. WIN, BILLS! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I still feel our time to go for it is next year. Cap space coming off what should be double digit wins. That said if you can improve the pass rush and find a WR then do it now. I'de actually rank pass rusher ahead of WR for in season moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Tuesday’s Trade deadline, I think today’s outcome goes a long way toward making our 1st Round pick tradable for Immediate team upgrade. WIN, BILLS! Well, it's legit in the sense of "could plausibly happen" but I don't think the notion that Dorsey got fired for failing to trade to improve the team at the deadline matches all the media stuff in MO. There's also the point that expectations change once your team has been 11-5, 12-4, going to playoffs 4 out of 5 seasons - but not even making it to the conference game. Expectations change. Did he get fired in part because the team was good, but not good enough and tight up against the cap? Yep. Failing to trade? Unlikely. But that's OK, we can disagree on that. Either way, I think with last year being 6-10, the expectation this year is to at least flip the numbers and win enough to get back to the playoffs (and I do love saying that). I think Beane would sooner trade his left nut than a 1st round draft pick. But I could be wrong, and who knows, maybe we'll read about a...different trade package. And the point remains that at some point once you're good, good is no longer enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. And if it's your year to make a run by all means make a good trade and use some draft capital. If your still building and playing the long game, don't make a trade to show activity, stick the the program and that's what Beane is doing.
