Please draft offense

It’s so clear to me what we really need to take the next step...offensive weapons. I love John Brown, but he’s more of a WR2. Beasley is our slot guy, that can’t be argued. We need a tall WR that can go get it in the end zone at the end of games. IMO that’s what we need to target above all else this draft. 
 

In addition, we could really use a RT. I think Ford will finally be moved inside next year, but we need a true RT. We could look at FA, or in the draft. Either way it’s a huge need. 
 

We also need a second RB. Motor has been really good, but we need some reliability when he needs to catch his breath. I’m thinking maybe the fourth or fifth to find this guy. 
 

I say all this to plead and beg Beane to upgrade the offense this off-season. Please resist the urge to draft defense in round one and get a real playmaker for this offense. It’s what we need to round out this offense and make us a more complete football team. I get the potential need for pass rusher, but we can’t use all our premium picks on defense each year and expect to keep up with opposing offenses.

The value on WR is better in Rd 2. Now we will be drafting later in the first so maybe that’s the range where we might swing but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Beane go Edge Rd 1 and trade up Rd 2 and get his WR.  That’s just based off tendency and this regime loves Defense on cost controlled contracts

Highly doubt many teams worry about the Bills passing game too much when they know or #2 WR is McKenzie.  He should be the #4 or 5 who plays a few plays bringing in some special surprise type plays.

 

Overall would prefer they draft a pass rushing De in the 1st round as they are harder to find in FA.  Draft a WR in the 2nd or 3rd, but also sign a good FA WR who starts next year.  WR often takes some time to develop, would rather not rely on a rookie for that.  Also draft one O lineman, tackle preferred.  Don't sign Spain and move Ford inside.

That’s exactly what I’m afraid of. Meanwhile, we get to choose from the second tier of WRs because all McD wants is elite defenders.

Exactly. And they are all small. Nobody to allow them to go up and win a 50/50 ball. If we had that guy, that would have come in handy at the end of today’s game.

This is inarguable.   Our defense really can’t play any better than it’s played this year.  With an above average offense, we’d be 11-2 or better.  And no, we don’t desperately need an edge rusher, although would be nice if we signed one in FA.  We are generating more than enough pressure.

by no means is TE solved. Knox has hands of stone and the ball bounces off his f'kin chest.  Sweeney barely made the team, Kroft is a non-factor and Croom is not the answer.


Not according to Pegula Daughter

Rather get a vet WR than someone in the draft unless they are an absolute blue chip like a AJ green/Megatron/Julio.

 

Bill Belisuckmydick cant even pluck and develop a good WR from the draft. 
 

It’s smarter to get a vet.


those Vets Never hit the market and cost a TON of they do. 
 

and don’t give me AJ Green. Old and Broke

It would also be helpful if Allen can throw accurately downfield. If he can't , might not matter too much who our #1 WR is. There is a huge chunk of the defensive backfield that might not worry the defense too much. That's a problem.

This is sort of my point. We need a blue chip WR. Someone like Tee Higgins. I don’t want to wait till the second round to get leftovers. Get the guy you love and feel can help take this offense to the next level.

I have more than enough confidence that Allen will straighten this issue out this off-season. Last off-season it was about the short to intermediate stuff and now it’s a strength.

It seems the Bills have not had a dominant TE in over 20 years. That should be an early round priority.

If a prospect falls to them. 

This is a crappy TE crop coming out from what I understand.

Would be nice if he worked on that during the season. It's really shocking to see an NFL QB so bad at the deep pass. I don't recall any other QB having these kinds of problems.
