TheBeaneBandit Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 At the very least find an upgrade to Spain. Yes, we've seen worse, but hopefully we keep trying to improve here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vincec Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 OT, DT, DE, OLB, RB, WR... all needs. So while OG help wouldn't hurt, I think it's down the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with moving Edmunds to OLB is that the Bills mostly play a 2 LB nickel, so unless he is going to replace Milano, you are basically saying that he will be a backup which I can't see at this point.

billsfan89 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Feliciano has been really good, I think they can kick Ford inside to take over for Spain. Maybe draft or bring in some depth but the guard position isn't a major concern. RT is a need as Ty is OK and older. Probably address RT in rounds 2-4 next year. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I think next year Ford will take Spains place, leaving them needing a RT. Ford Morse, and Feleciano inside and Dawkins at one tackle slot is fine. Agree with DE, think that may be their #1 pick as not likely to get a great FA there. Teams with great DE don't let them go so likely need to get one through the draft. WR could sign a FA and not sure we need a elite #1 either. I'd take Brown Beasley and another Brown look alike. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All true Vince, but I think they're going to have to rethink that D. A good coach is going to have to use the best players he a d form the scheme around them.

WR1, RT and Edge Rush are the top needs that will require major FA dollars or a high draft pick to fill. Finding a run stuffing DT shouldn't be hard to do (although they wiffed big on Star), finding a between the tackles runner isn't hard to do. OLB is a need but I think they can bring Lorax back for one more season in 2020 and draft one in the mid rounds (they also have V.Joseph coming back after his red shirt year.) Even RT which I would classify as a need isn't tragic as I think Ty is a decent RT. I think they more than likely can roll with Ty for one more season and draft an RT in rounds 2-4 to back him up. Guard I wouldn't even put on the list as I think you can let Spain walk (he has been a JAG) and kick Ford into the guard spot and roll with Felicano as the other guard. You also have Long and Bates as depth. Maybe they draft one late but I don't see it as an issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Why? Because the redskins had 11 guys in the box and were keyed into Gore on the short yardage plays? If we had run a simple playaction at any point in time, it would have been game over. Guard is not the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Formation Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 WR and DE for me. Preferably WR RD1 and DE RD2. Ford goes into LG and we draft a RT RD3. Sign a nice CB2 to replace Levi Wallace and I think we are in good shape. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSHMEAB Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 The interior run blocking has really only improved marginally, which is saying something. Morse is not a mauler. Spain is actually better in pass pro. Feliciano is a nice player, but that's not enough. I do envision Ford kicking inside for Spain, which would help some. That's the kind of game where you'd like to see the OL opening lanes dominating the DL in the second half. Didn't see that...at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
