RyanC883 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Ok, offseason time. Not going to talk about one game. Here is what I have seen this year: 1. We have a STUD QB. Allen backed up one great year with another. He balled out at the biggest times in the playoffs. 2. We severely lack on OL, DL, and RB. Motor is great, but we run Josh too much for a reason. We need a true no. 1 back like Mixon, or at least someone who can rotate with motor (similar to what KC does) 3. our recent draft picks have not been BPA, but reaching for DL to stop KC. Oops, didn't work. 4. We have added some impactful FA's (notably Diggs, Sanders, Beasley). So, what should we do. I think we trade 1st picks for impactful players on rebuilding teams. My dream (unlikely) is to get Watt from the Steelers with 3 first round picks. More realistic is to get perhaps a vet OL or DL, or LB in FA. I don't think we can keep Edmunds, someone will overpay for his "potential." (can we still trade him?) We have the hard part (elite QB). How do we solve the rest (notably, OL, RB, and front 7). ? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cle23 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Steelers can't trade Watt. WAY too much dead money for them to eat. But yeah, I still had some minor turnover doubts about Allen to start the year, but congrats, you got a top tier QB from here on out. Dude has had the physical ability the entire time, but he developed more than I ever thought he could. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextmanup Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Our drafting has been bad. The DL and OL need to be reconstructed. As long as Allen is here and young enough to play his type of game, we'll be close to the target. Will we ever hit the bullseye? Is coaching good enough for that? That's the relevant question. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man with No Name Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 the hardest part is not our needs. it is that KC is not going anywhere. we matched every move they had tonight, but they got the ball last. hopefully hill ages out of being the most dangerous non-quarterback player on the field very soon. he is the biggest difference maker, imo 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Formation Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 • Give me another WR in the draft/free agency. Allen has a rocket and we’re a passing team. • Give me a couple more corners, at least two. • Give me a MLB that’s worth a damn. • Fire Leslie Frazier along with half our defensive coaching staff. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerboski Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I’m looking at hunter and Mack and seeing what that price tag is…. Either would be game changers for this defense KC has three legit pass rushers, we have one in Oliver… it’s not good enough, also we need some speed in the secondary, god are we slow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanSD Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 We have a tier 1 QB and a good team around him. Our super bowl window is open for a while. Tonight featured one team that was willing to put the game in the hands of their QB and one team who wasn't. We were the team that didn't trust its QB, and we lost as a direct result of that. I don't understand why you draft this guy and extend him and then don't let him play for a full half of football. It's mind-boggling.

Yeah, but they were really good the last 5 or 6 games. agreed, OL was better when Bates was playing. But they are not elite, and we are like 1 injury away from total disaster. I'd even take a center in Rd. 1 if he is BPA (I can't recall who, but there is some college center projected in Rd. 1). I also like the idea of adding Shrieff or another type OL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Kelly didn't get to the SB until he was almost 31. Peyton Manning lost 6 times in the playoffs before he broke through. We're taking some lumps. Some BIG lumps. But unless they ruin you, they only make you stronger. I have faith in Beane - I think he'll approach this offseason w/ a desperation that we haven't seen yet. 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man with No Name Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 our offense seems good enough right now. they are not the reason we lost. defense has the issue where we can shut teams down but give up a lot of really big plays. im not sure what the biggest culprit is there. hard to be mad at them for what the chiefs did. they have done it to everybody for 4 years. but they are not the only ones to do it to us.

Billznut Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) To me the biggest needs are cornerback, pass rusher and linebacker. I would love to also upgrade at center and guard. I don’t know if they can do all that in one off season with limited cap space. It’ll be tough. Edited January 24, 2022 by Billznut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
