How did we drop that much... we added Josh Norman for cheap and let Shaq Lawson go get over paid. I dont understand 

It's a meaningless graph. For one, count how many playoff teams are positive and how many are negative on that index.

The Brownies have mastered the art of acquiring talent without actually assembling a team.

Smokescreen... After the Hopkins trade, I'm sure the browns are cautious not to get blown up by twitter.

Thought he would be well overpaid, but those are reasonable terms. Happy the Jets didn't get him, but probably a good move by Cleveland.

But still compares to the rest of the league it doesnt make much sense. Lawson wasnt that important. In fact we are looking to upgrade DE. We should be pretty neutral. Maybe down .4%

We haven't really added anyone besides Josh Norman (who PFF does not like). We have lost Shaq Lawson, Kevin Johnson, and Jordan Phillips.

I want to treat PFF like a legitimate thing.  I really do.   

But these guys are really just becoming a waste of space on social media.

 

We have a whopping three moves so far, and have somehow decreased by 3 percentage points...

- We signed Josh Norman, who very likely could be a depth move and not even a starter on this team.

- We re-signed Quinton Spain, which would be a total wash since he was on the Bills last year.

- We lost Shaq Lawson, who according to PFF wasn't even a Top 100 free agent.

We havent lost Jordan Phillips yet... and if they were counting all free agents why arent the Patriots lower. If thats the case they should be way lower cause that means they lost Brady, Van Noy, Collins, and Dorsett

This graph isn't about the past. It's about how much teams have improved or gotten worse. If anything, that points to the graph being more accurate, as non-playoff teams tend to have more money to spend.

And Lorax

I don't see the point in getting angry at the graph. The graph charts a WAR stat, and has been updated with today's moves, they'll keep updating it as more moves happen. 

You don't have to like the stat or anything, but they're staying in their lane - they're just charting their stat. You wouldn't expect them to do anything different. You guys are reacting like they're publishing articles titled "BILLS TO SUCK 2020, BASED ON WAR PROJECTIONS"

They are well aware that free agency hasn't even started lol

That's part of why it is meaningless. I didn't say it was inacurate. And besides, you can't quantify such a thing until you actually see them playing games.

Yeah, I was hoping we’d at least be linked to him.  ?

All I'm saying is we better replace Lawson.

I mean I kinda know what you mean but I wouldn't make that point when it comes to Clowney. He is literally the last of the biggest FA names I would want us to sign. 

 

Injury prone, tons of penalties, multiple stories of a mediocre work ethic, and disappointing production...and wants $20 million per year. PASS.

[Buffalo_Stampede]

The Browns making it rain. They honestly have a top 5 roster.

Guys signing elsewhere means they are not signing with the Bills. Or do we secretly have a deal to trade for Hopkins, signed Conklin and Hooper and are trading up with SF so we can draft Lamb. Everything else is juts bad info.

Ref. Cleveland Browns.  ?

[Kmart128]

All i ask is we sign someone to replace Lorenzo and Shaq soon... if we dont we may end up downgrading. Maybe add a RB and build the rest in the draft

I think they will...they would have re-signed him if that wasn't the plan

I believes its wins.  So we are 2 wins worse than last year....? Yeah I dont understand.  If its all FAs then some of the bigger named FAs should drag down other teams more (Pats and Brady) and no way Shaq is the moving the needle that much.

read lower scale, y axis says it is % change in wins, not the number of wins.

Nah. Dudes a beast and would be a beast here.

 

I was half kidding with the Beane asleep at the wheel comment, but this team needs studs, not middling FA or JAG signings.

I dunno. Seem to be agreeing with Scott Law a lot recently. Maybe I better go get tested for the beer virus.

[loveorhatembillsfan4life]

Watch, we will announce a mass signing of like 5 players tomorrow plus trades.. we will own the headlines tomorrow to ourselves!! I think.. maybe not..

I figure we will be involved in the 2nd waive of talented players

Lol.  You’re new here aren’t you?

[BuffaloBaumer]

The biggest name will be via trade most likely. I am glad the Bills are staying away from the glitz as that is what has worked so far. Love it
