Take the Covid19 discussion to one of the several appropriate threads dedicated to it.

I'm about to spend some time I could put to better use cleaning up the thread.

If you can't restrain yourself I will restrain you.

For all Beane's talk of not anticipating a big spending offseason the Bills seem to be interested in everyone who comes available...

 

Well, to be fair and accurate - he said they wouldn't be in the deep end of the pool, which *could* mean that they weren't going after "whales" of FA but instead of locating those medium sized fish / mammals that will contribute based on value and not money spent. Just a thought...

And everyone can thank the Raiders and Broncos for paying Trent Brown and JaWuan James $16M and $13M, respectively


But a smart team will get an economical deal by offer sheeting Feiler to a front-loaded deal worth $8-10M per

Don’t mind the idea of Jackson at Guard...I’m just not a fan of how it would force Ford to be a full time RT...?‍♂️

 

We need more athleticism out on the edge imo...


I think it's too early to say that it would definitely force Ford to be a full time RT. 

They could trade for Jackson, and then the draft could come around and one of the "big four" offensive tackles could still be on the board at 22. Or they could sign a tackle in free agency who has a softer market than anticipated.

In that scenario, you have Ford compete with Feliciano at guard. While Feliciano was a good offensive lineman last year, he wasn't a GREAT one, and his ability at guard and center would give the Bills excellent depth.

I think Ford probably will never be elite at RT, but I still think he could be above to well above average. At the very least, twice as good as Jordan Mills ?. Just remember, it could be a lot worse over there lol!!! On a side note, Im really liking the Bills interest in the big line of scrimmage guys!

Levi? I think he can play. No worse than a backup boundary corner, and he can get you through half a season as a starter if needed.

He didn’t say no big spending; he said “not in the deep end of the pool”, which to me means “quality over quantity”.

I’d gladly take 2 guys at 10 million a year than 1 guy near 20. High priced free agent signings rarely work out.
