Beane 3:16


Recommended Posts

There is no question Beane and McD will be here to stay, and Diggs, regardless of some of the complaints made a fantastic decisions this past week.  Norman will be a good addition knowing he is not #1 and adds to an already stud secondary, now getting by far the best WR we had a shot at as Cooper was never leaving Dallas, and Diggs catches more competitive throws than even the stud from NO.  
 

We never needed those late round picks as we even as fans are not used to this type of talented team, and taking a chance on a first rd wr at the 20’s vs. someone who has a resume in the NFL who is young and healthy was a good decision.  I don’t expect everyone to agree, but people will be happy this fall.  We can only hope he accepts his current contract as he wanted out and is getting just north of $14 mil for the next four years.  We still have $ to extend some needed contracts.

Beane always shows up late to the dance but some how always leaves with the hottest girl there! 

 

Front office competence at its finest!!

How can the Pegula’s not re-up him long term (and also not fire Botteril) when watching what this guy can do every year with a roster. 

Because there's no telling when his deal with the devil runs out.

Based on this trade and what he gave up and medicore signings this offseason is not looking good.  I can only hope they cut Murphy and add a game changing LB/DE.  I like Diggs but not worth 4 picks,  Beane got fleeced and we get another smurf receiver.  How does he address getting big WR with limited picks.

I have to give it to him: right now, there is no one position where I think the Bills desperately need to sign someone. (Maybe RT)

 

There are plenty of places to upgrade, but right now I feel comfortable with the Bills signing reasonably priced free agents and then supplementing that with people you hope are going to be studs in the draft.

Beane is a stone cold killer.  Bills fans are so fortunate to finally have legitimate, top notch management.  My friends used to try and console me for being a Bills fan...they are now giving me the "you guys are going to be good" vibes.

I know everyone says it going into the draft, but we are nearly in a position to truly draft BPA already and free agency hasn't even technically started yet. Well played Beane.

I was just thinking the same thing. Oh yes, they’d like to upgrade a few positions and infuse the roster with additional youth but they do appear to be in a great position and STILL have plenty of money. The glaring hole is at RB. They really have nobody after Singletary. Something has to happen there (Draft or Free Agent)

I think as far as big bodied receivers go, you look to none other than Dawson Knox, Kroft, Sweeney and maybe Croom. Gotta start targeting those TEs more. And it’s not like 6’0 is small, Diggs posted a 100 rec season 2 years ago, he can do it all.

For sure, ideally I'd love to get Breida and then take a mid round RB like AJ Dillon/ Zack Moss/Lamichel Perine. 

 

But if we don't sign an RB in free agency, RB at pick #54 could be in play.

Keep repeating this enough and even you might start to believe it... 

 

Oh, we still have seven picks by the way... 

 

Go Bills!!!

CAN WE LOCK BEANE UP WITH A NEW 5 YEAR CONTRACT ASAP PLEASE!?!?!

 

He is the man.  Period.

We haven’t learned our lesson with early extensions??? Also, how often are GMs really “stole” from other teams?  Beane has done some nice things.  But if Allen doesn’t become a franchise qb, it does at really matter all the other moves he did.  Look at Ryan Pace on the Bears.  He was beloved 2 years ago, now they want him gone.  
 

if the Bills are playing well with a much harder schedule and Allen is performing like a franchise qb, he will get an extension.  But I don’t get the rush to do so now.

I agree with most of this. I think he's shown enough that even if Allen falters we can find a competent guy with this lineup. This is a hard year, but with the defense we have now we'll always be competitive with middle of the road teams.

 

I get this year was an aberration for weak schedule but we got to the playoffs with a scrub team a few years ago these guys can do it again. It's the right combo and I haven't said on a message board my entire life. It feels bizarre even typing it. Having a team that doesn't suck just feels good.

 

I mean I watched the Texans game thinking "we could win this." It felt bizarre and exciting. These guys earned a lot of leeway.

There was only one good pick, the rest were crap picks. Dare I say it, but I believe Diggs may be better than Jeudy, Lamb and Ruggs, we’ll see but Diggs is a proven commodity and has eclipsed 100 catches in a season before and he’ll see a lot of targets

Beane is on the right track.  

 

A bunch of fans on here wanted to wait and draft a 2nd or 3rd round WR.  My concern was that Josh didn't have 3 years to wait for a guy to potentially develop and adjust to the pro game.  

 

Beane seemed to realize the same, hence the trade for Diggs.  I'm encouraged.  The rumored interest in Jordan Howard makes even more sense now.

Agree'd ! If the Pegs don't lock him up there will be many other teams that will try to poach him from the Bills i could see a Daniel Snider coming in & offering a ridiculous amount of money like the Raiders did Gruden to steal him from us !!
