MAJBobby Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 (edited) ***Disclaimer*** I will not put all Names not on the Bills in this thread as it would get to long, I will keep it to a couple names in each tier (as I see them). As mentioned from @whatdroughtI will link th ones I already have done on the bottom of this post. Hope you enjoy the read. Only OL and WR left on Offense Currently on Roster: (Positional Spending 3 players 2.834M Cap ranked 23rd in league) - I like this finally not putting a ton of cap space into this position. T.J. Yeldon (UFA 2021) – Saves 1.65M against cap if Cut Devin Singletary (UFA 2023) Christian Wade (signed futures deal) Expiring Contracts Frank Gore (37 yrs old) (2.0M AVV) Senorise Perry (28 yrs old) (720K AVV) Possible Trade TGTS: None - Never trade for a RB in offseason My Take: First, I will address the expiring contracts. I think Gore retires, but even if he doesn’t, I do not want him back (which likely means another veteran RB signed staying with the McD and Beane mentality of a veteran in every room). Also, Senorise Perry they very well could bring him back but that is not going to happen until after the draft IMO. He is one of those post draft, 1 year no guaranteed signings. The expiring contracts do not hurt the room in terms of production (might help it meaning Gore doesn’t get his token touches) but what it does hurt is the Veteran Presence in the room. I guess Beane and McD could look at Yeldon and see if he can bring that presence, but I think they will look for one. I would rather they not as this room IMO doesn’t need it, they are RBs after all. Lets look at Singletary, first his numbers 151 Attempts, 12.6 per game 775 yards 5.1 ypc, 2TDs, 24.5% 1st down percentage, 7 20+ runs, 4 fumbles (1 lost), 41tgts, 29 Rec, 194 yards, 2 TDs, 70.7% catch rate. Now before I continue I just want to do one thing on rushing only….. Josh Jacobs 242 attempts, 1,150 yards 18.6 attempts a game. Let’s see what Motor looks like with those attempt numbers Motor 242 attempts 1,234 yards. Ok now that that is over let me get back to Motor. What I like about him, I knew he had some good vision that is what was talked about since he was drafted. However, I would like to say his vision is much better than anticipated. I am talking Freddie Jackson type vision in his rookie year. What I didn’t know about him is how powerful he is. Yes, some of the broken tackles can be attributed to his low center of gravity, but man I don’t remember seeing a little back move the pile like he does, I think I can count on two hands the number of times I saw the first tackler in bring him down. That is why I would get infuriated when Daboll and McD would force Gore in on short yardage. Where he does need to improve though is pass pro (cheap copout I know all rookies need to improve here) but it is true, he got better as the year went on, but still an issue. 4 Fumbles on 151 attempts is a high as well, so I would like for him to improve that aspect of his game as well, though near the end of the season I did see him cover the ball before taking contact, and my notes have 3 of those fumbles coming when he was fighting for yards. But to the rest of the room the talent is lacking IMO. I know there will be people here coming pounding the table for Wade, for me it is a good story but right now that is all it is. He had a TON to learn but do look forward to seeing if he did at camp. My UFA listing, I am about to show is going to be based on replacing Gore. I don’t like spending big UFA money on RBs, when they can be so easily found in the draft very year. That is my mindset on this specific position group in terms of UFA Acquisitions. UFAs Possible Tier 1 Carlos Hyde (value around 3M) – This IMO is who I would like if we are looking to replace Gore’s Veteran Presence. Lamar Miller Jordon Howard (might have someone overpay for him to start) Tier 2 Adrian Peterson LSean McCoy Bilal Powell Draft Tier 1 (1st and 2nd round grades) Jonathan Taylor (Wisconsin) J.K Dobbins (Ohio State) D’Andre Swift (Georgia) Travis Etienne (Clemson) Tier 2 (3rd-5th round) Chuba Hubbard (OK ST) Cam Akers (FL ST) Najee Harris (Alabama) Clyd Edwards Helaire (LSU) Zack Moss (UTAH) Lamical Perine (Florida) Tier 3 (6th – Priority UFA) Eno Benjamin (AZ ST) A.J Dillon (BC) Ke’Shawn Vaughn (Vandy) Trey Sermon (OK) Michal Warren II (Cincy) Tony Jones Jr (ND) Final thinking in this Position group for me would be: I would not go into UFA and get a Veteran for presence I think Yeldon will be fine and at this point I am thinking Singletary has picked Gore’s Brain. Here is a thought, bring Gore back as a coaching intern if he retires. Now that said I am not going to add to this room via UFA, So I will go into the draft. The pick I am targeting on using for the RB would be one of the 5ths, (don’t need to go earlier as I think Singletary has shown he can be a RB1). So that puts me in Tier 2. Obviously if one of the top 4 drop than I would take one at 150. If not the two I would look at that would bring a different dimension in terms of Motor, but now hurt what the offense would want to do is Najee Harris and Zach Moss would be my TGTs at 150. The organizational depth here is a little lacking, but that would be addressed with the draft. You take one RB later and we are fine. Singletary has shown he can carry the RB1 and the position should flow through him.

NewEra Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I’d try and offer Derrick Henry 2 years 30 mill all gtd. I don’t see anyone else giving him more than that and I don’t see us spending to the cap this year or next. So why not overpay a true difference maker that brings something to the table no other RB brings. Keep that 3rd rd draft pick and use it on OL, DL, WR, CB or TE i normally not like spending big on a RB either. Our best chance to win a SB is next year imo.

Go for it I would pay him whatever he wants lol. As long as they can cut bait after 2-3 years no big deal. There’s not another player in the league capable of what he is. Him and motor and Allen together could set rushing records. I can’t see anyway Tennessee ever lets him leave after securing the rushing title and what he did to the Pats. Their fans would riot he’s the face of the franchise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luka Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 AJ Dillon would be my draft choice. 1,600 yards and 5.3 YPC at 6 foot and 245? Sign me up. I think the need for a veteran presence is a little overstated, it was nice to have Gore I guess, but I think McDermott really needs to address that kind of thing in his coaching staff to maximize talent on the roster for gameday. Can't keep giving up roster spots to keep a veteran. Let Singletary become the leader in that room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFunPolice Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Is there a Henry clone in this year's draft that we could get in the 3rd round or later? I'd love to see Henry (or a clone) paired with Singletary. It never felt this year like the Bills could consistently line up and impose their will. I think it's because as good as Singletary is, once he needed a breather we couldn't run the ball or it was a waste of a play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrober38 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I don't think the Bills will do anything meaningful at RB. Singletary is the bell cow, Yeldon moves into Gores role and they fill out the roster with a low cost vet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont Stop Billeiving Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Great post @MAJBobby, appreciate all the detail and hard work on your part. Agree with all of your takes except for the fact that I believe Moss and Harris won't last until the 5th round. I know the position is devalued (and I am completely against paying a UFA like Henry top dollar or drafting an RB in the 1st round), but I'd spend our late 3rd or trade up in the 4th to get Moss, Harris, or Edwards-Helaire if that's what it took. Getting an upgrade at RB2 would be huge for this offense and the middle of the draft seems like the best way to do this. Go Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just am not thinking that is realistic with the mindset of Beane and McD. I would like it though. Specially if one of Dillon or Akers play ST. I’ve been a fan of this kid for a while. I’d be perfectly content with adding him in the lay 4th or 5th. 5’11, 220 lbs and can catch. Added bonus.... watch him carry Jamal Adams 10 yards around the 2:10 mark.

There are always a million FA RBs....shouldn't be that hard to find one and add a mid-round draft pick. Count me against the big money D Henry fantasy. Rather spend those dollars on a pass rusher, WR or CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
