WMDman Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Definitely DE 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimeTime101 Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 Maybe I stand alone on this but NE is stocking TE's again and yes they have no QB but with better teams we need to stop TE's better. But part of the problem is we give teams too much time to find TE's so IDK. I understand Edge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimer1960 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Well, I think a young DE is the biggest need, but I don’t think the draft sets up well to find one there - if lucky, they may get a Shaq Lawson level player at end of round 1. I’d be more inclined to take a CB to improve coverage giving the lineman we do have a bit longer to get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjt328 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 The clear weakness last season was on defense. Our biggest need is cornerback. Followed closely by edge rusher. Followed by depth at defensive tackle and linebacker. Any offensive upgrades would be nice, but they certainly aren't our biggest needs. At this point, our offense is almost identical to the one that finished #2 in scoring and #2 in yards last season. The only changes so far are Emmanuel Sanders for John Brown (who missed half the season anyway) and the possible loss of Isaiah McKenzie as our gadget guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 DE/Edge - Hughes is getting up there in age, Addison is just OK, Epenesa didn't get enough playing time to show his game. We need someone rushing the QB who will put the fear of Buffalo running thru their heads 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, IMO, is a big time need!! Someone who would provide the push up the middle with the ability to help the run. I’m all for adding Geno Atkins for the time being Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rc2catch Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 It’s edge and I don’t think it’s all that close. Add in a TJ Watt, a Bosa, Brian Burns kinda player will make all the difference in the world to this defense. Corner suddenly isn’t as big of a need, Edmunds and Milano look way better, speed up the clock on a quarterback and make him get rid of the ball in 3 seconds and all our guys will be looking like all pro level players including the old ends and DT’s 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 We still haven't replaced Andre Roberts. Getting a solid return man should definitely be top priority. We can't count on the draft to fill that hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BfloBillsFan Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 A big time playmaker on the D and I think that comes from the edge/DE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFlutie Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I actually didn't like any of the options. We need more beef in the middle of the D. Another edge rusher is nice, but I really need epenesa to mature. We've drafted a lot of talent already that needs to improve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 They need 3 front 7 defenders in the draft. An OLB, a DE, and a NT to develop. I would have let Milano walk and move Edmunds to OLB. But that is not happening now. So they need to focus on pass rush. I'm still not sold on Edmunds but at this point I would still pick up fis fifth year option so I can can control the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said there is not one till round 4 or higher so Develop is the key word. DE and OLB is a must must between now and end of early second day draft. So all and all I agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TC in St. Louis Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 If Etienne is there, they should take him. He can add an explosion to the RB position that we do not have. Otherwise, I'd say take the best player that fits a specific need. If there is an edge guy who they feel can make an impact right away, take him. If there is a great offensive lineman....well, that's what they thought they had in Ford. Ford may still work out. We just don't know yet. He has the "traits," but it's likely the injuries have impacted him, and if he's healthy maybe he'll turn into the road grader they had in mind. However, with our pass happy offense, you need your linemen to be good pass blockers. I will say this: they know more about every available player than any of us. Gotta trust the process. I've always been a draft nut, but looking back there have been choices that I'd never heard of that blossomed. Fina...never heard of him. Henry Jones? nope. When they chose Whitner, I nearly broke a wall with a shoe. Turned out he was a better pick than Leinert. Point is, nowadays we all have access to film and highlights of just about every player. But we don't get to do the interviews and to dig deep. I think they look for character above everything....because the top 250 football players are all really good athletes. The difference is whether or not they fit the culture. Sorry I rambled. I'm pretty sure nobody read it anyway. No big deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tcali Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 we cant get to the next level without upgrades in our D.We were fortunate to get past Indy last yr. And BALT was a toss up..Then we got completely outclassed by KC. So many people acting like the Bills will just waltz to the championship game again.

TroutDog Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I vacillated on DE vs LB who can cover but chose DE since if the pressure is provided, it will give our LB’s a much higher probability of winning those matchups. After those CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
