Not saying he's trash - but "feature back" is really overselling the move. Especially after last season. OK I'm sorry but it seems your Breida stat hunting. He was NOT the feature back for 3 years in SF. In his entire NFL career he has never been a featured RB. His 1st year at SF Carols Hyde was the #1 back. He came to SF as a UDFA and made some noise. His 2nd year he was not the feature back taking only 34% of the offensive snaps. He was the leading yard gainer. His 3rd year he took the least amount of snaps of the 3 headed monster of Coleman/Mostert/Breida. Breida was close to the top of my FA list after Lindsay. He can easily made this team as a change of pace RB. Singletary and Moss do not change how defenses scheme against the Bills at all.

That being said he is nothing more than a change of pace like I said. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloRebound Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Love the signing. Don’t waste another high pick on a RB. You can get good production from backs like Breida. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slippery Rubber Mats Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Love this. He'll be in the rotation. Nice hands, great breakaway speed. I'm concerned about his last year with the Phins. Not sure what to make of that. If we're getting Niners Breida then sign me up. He's a difference maker. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think our 1st rounder is a CB or big nickel with speed. Our secondary is good but needs an infusion of speed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinky finger Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 3 hours ago, RyanC883 said: I'd still take Harris or Williams if there potentially at 30. Or, most likely, a team that really wants one of those guys would be willing to trade with us. I think we still need upgrades at OG, DT, and DE and TE. I'd go in that order in the draft because they seem to have the most instant impact. I'd even swap 1st and trade 2nd and 5th for ability to grab Pitts. that is a good question: why did Miami barley use him??? I'm really not a fan of "going in that order". It's a recipe for reach. Let the draft come to us. 14 minutes ago, StHustle said: Opportunity knocks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get good production from backs like Breida. Agreed, the bills are a passing team. Not saying we shouldn't improve the run game but that 1st rounder for edge rush/ cb2 or trade back and get even more picks is the smart franchise move. Breida brings the speed and hands we lacked for little money and zero draft capitol. I love it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya it was weird that they didn't utilize him but that was a weird season for the phins they didn't even know who their QB was. I just love not dropping the draft capitol or money on an RB, look at other massive investment RBs, there's already been rumors about guys like mcaffrey and Barkley getting traded.

BisonMan Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 With the Bills’ weak run blocking, his breakaway spread will get him into the arms of a tackler in the backfield that much quicker than our 2020 RBs could. 🤪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling that there will be changes on the OL and not at RB, so Breida should be a low cost high reward type signing. He's only 26 and was barely used (but disappointing to the Dolphins) in 2020. What do you think? maybe to make everyone think we’re not going RB in the first round ?

That guy is overrated, always injured, and couldn't crack the starting lineup in Miami!" *Bills sign Matt Breida* "Oh, I love the move! He's fast and the Dolphins were dumb to not play him more!" Two Bills Drive, everyone... This is pretty much all of my friends too. I suggested Emmanuel Sanders to them after Brown was cut and they all hated him. I tell them we signed him and it’s omg I love him great move. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royale with Cheese Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Would it be completely out of the conversation that Breida becomes our #1 back by opening day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
