C.Biscuit97 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Literally one of the few things that would make me punch a wall. It would beyond idiotic but this regime has outdated view on offense. Maybe we could run the wishbone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you're right here, most of the top 10 rushers in the league are 1st rd picks for sure. But if u go out to top 15 the numbers change as 7 of those are not. However. More important imo than top rushers are the top rushing teams. It does no good if you have Nick Chubb but still finish 6-10. Out of the top 10 rushing teams, how many of those have a 1st rd back leading the way? It's 2. 2 teams out of 10. Tennessee & Dallas (Im not counting Baltimore because of Lamar). So once again that shows you don't need a 1st rd back to have success running the ball. As a matter of fact it kinda shows the inverse, that you're more successful without one. As long as you build your offense in other areas. Oline, TEs, WR's etc. At this point would i hate us getting one? No not really. But it seems like a luxury pick where we have so many other areas to improve that would serve us better as a whole (as a team), since wins matter most & not personal stats. And as i just showed, you don't necessarily need a 1st rd back to be one of the top rushing teams in the league. As the top rushing teams dont even have one.

CB 2 is a very real need. Ask yourself this, if Tre gets hurt, how do you feel about the secondary? Right on. Remember that feeling when Tre looked like he had a major injury???

Bookie Man Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I don't think he'd use a first on a rb. Is Singletary a 20-25 carry back? Not sure. I could see 2nd or 3rd though. I know peoples heads would explode, a lot around here hated the DS pick in the 3rd last year and who's not happy with it now? I'm a big Swift fan, so I would not hate the pick. I would rather see EDGE or WR, depending on how it plays out. But I can definitely the first 3 picks being RB, WR, EDGE, not necessarily in that order.

Yep, I agree 100%. We have some good football players at the skill positions in Brown, Beasley, Knox and Singletary (more so than the others IMO). With that being said they don’t keep anyone up at night. They can be contained and need volume to impact the game. The Bills need a guy or 2 that can scare you besides Josh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T master Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 The "Experts say" let's avoid some of the biggest needs on the team & take a player that we really don't have a big need for just because we are the "Football Experts" & they know whats best for the Bills ... Although if it is the BPA it wouldn't surprise me if Beane & company went that direction but i hope there are other players there just as good or better for the Bills att heir pick !

Chicken Boo Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Only so many touches you can give out. Unless we're running 2 back sets, it's a bit of a waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t know the players but that’s the game plan I’m rolling with and I would continue to add youthful backs every 2 years and have a trio of 0-4 year RBs it’s a cheap position that can be replaced with success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 We can't run Singletary 30 times a game. What happens if he gets hurt? TY Yeldon? We want to improve the offense, and make it elite. Swift is a play making, three down RB, with excellent receiving skills. The Bills could certainly use that. Round 2 draft WR. FA sign oline and veteran WR. And if this is the plan, we must spend top$ on DE- Clowney, Jones, Yannick, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Swift in round 1 Aiyuk in round 2 I'd dig this draft(assuming we addressed DE in FA). Two more weapons for Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat68 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Having another competant Rb is an offseason need. Gores lack of effectiveness negativley effected the offense from the middle of October on. Singletary is good for 15 to 20 touches. Buffalo needs someone who can be on the field for half of the game at the Rb position. Yeldon is a good 3rd option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78thealltimegreat Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 We need another rb badly and a high end one at that Devin is great but we have literally no one behind the guy taking a quality rb high isn’t the worst idea in the world we can’t keep having Josh be our short yardage back all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
