Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 This is likely the "end of FA" presser -- not totally, but mostly. Beane will probably say they're pretty much done and not to expect any big moves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 11 minutes ago, ScottLaw said: Well I think the Bucs and Chiefs were head and shoulders better teams and rosters than the Bills so I thought going into FA the onus was on the Bills to improve their roster to get to their level. Cant say either of them have really improved(though the Chiefs have addressed and improved their interior offensive line) but as I said both those teams are clearly more talented and the best teams in their conferences. Obviously still time to improve and sign FAs. To this point I'm more so confused by their approach at edge. Addison sucks. He should be gone and used that money to bring in an upgrade. Weird decision to go with him again. As of right now, I don't know that any of us really improved dramatically, more to the point that the Bills and Chiefs tinkered with their rosters. The Chiefs OL was wrecked in the SB, both tackles for them had injuries, Reid decided to cut the tackles and build from the inside out. They now have a strong interior OL but nothing at LT/RT. Otherwise, they are basically the same team. The Bills had 4 injured WR's in the Chiefs game and as a result, Josh Allen had nowhere to go with the ball.... and KC knew it. We cut John Brown, who only played 9 games and struggles against press man coverage to replace him with Emmanuel Sanders, who is strong against press man coverage. We still lack a RB or TE that any team feels the need to truly pay attention to. Both our defenses were exposed. Buffalo with a lack of pass rush and timid play against Kelce. KC with a lack of a Plan B when officials call all their clutching/grabbing in the secondary. Neither team has done much to address the defensive side of the ball. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I'm not thinking this is some major announcement, but I also don't know why Beane/McDermott, on the 2nd day of FA, would feel the need to have a "Let's give the fans a heads up that we're done until the draft" presser. Why? Why do we, the fans, need to know this? And I highly doubt that Beane, if approached with a deal that makes sense, is going to be like "eh, this would really help us but ya know... i already told our fans we're done... sorry, but i'll have to pass".. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Sanders can stay healthy and if Star comes-in in (his) shape and motivated, yes. Meanwhile continuity on the OL with Ford playing solely at LG and Feliciano being healthy should also be help.

That's a huge addition to the DL, and 1/5th's of the OL, that we can basically count as additions for the upcoming season. If Star is the same player he was and if Ford becomes the G out of college that we was supposed to be, then we're in pretty good shape... but those are big "ifs".

ndirish1978 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) I'll save you all the time. "We believe in drafting, developing and re-signing our players and I think we proved that to our fans and our team." "I think it send a powerful message to the locker room when they look around and see that these guys who have been working hard get rewarded for their efforts." "We have to put ourselves in the best position to win now and win in the future." "Our priority was always going to be keeping our own guys in the building." "We're always looking to improve at any position." "Free agency isn't over and we still have the draft." There you go. All done.

thenorthremembers Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) I love how mad people get when the Bills dont go out and sign a bunch of players. Lets be honest, your anger has nothing to do with whether you think the team is going to be good, it has everything to do with you being bored. If you find yourself angry about free agency you need to do yourself a favor and take a breather from message boards and social media for awhile. Whether the Bills sign Carl Lawson or not, or if the inane rumors about Khalil Mack coming to Buffalo impact your mood that much its time for a much needed time out. If you have to be doing something Football related, go back and watch Josh Allen highlights you'll be reminded the team just went 13-3 and has a Franchise Quarterback for the first time in close to 30 years.

With this being a deep OT draft, it could work out well for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way would I want a rookie protecting my $40 million man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
