billvernsays Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Looks at the Chiefs, Rams, Tampa Bay. They all basically get super he’s to sign with their teams in the offseason because certain players want to win. Does Buffalo join the party where FAs will take less to play with Josh Allen?

Victory Formation Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Yes, no, maybe. I would say that’s a big yes though for WRs/TEs/RBs that want to sign on for a 1 year prove it deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billzgobowlin Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I don't think we will dip into free agency much but yes especially on offense they would sign here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillMafia716ix Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Yeah maybe for older vets that want one last shot a ring. It’s still Buffalo. NY tax and it’s cold…not a dream destination spot like LA, Miami or Vegas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CincyBillsFan Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Yes. Allen's performance in the playoffs was seen by a lot of players and when they look into it a bit and realize that beyond Diggs Allen will get the ball to and create career games for any WR that gets open. Just ask Beasely, McKenzie & Davis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I think we could definitely be a destination for vet WR’s and pass rushers. Those seem to be the biggest discount/impact players that will chase a chance at a ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have in some ways, but here's still the problem....if you are a veteran looking to sign a cap friendly deal with a competitor for a chance at a ring and both KC and Buffalo come knocking who are you picking? I think you know the answer unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billybrew1 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 For wide-receivers maybe.... Maybe we can get a guy that really wants a Super Bowl, but FAs will generally go to who pays 5hem the most. Maybe we will do good with some one year deals? I expect the Bills to more or less be built by 5he draft now. We don't have much money and I don't see much money becoming available. This year could be the first year that we lose players. Players like: McKenzie, Wallace, Bates and Harrison P. We will start to get compensatory picks every year....We HAVE to the best at both drafting and developing top-shelf talent. Maybe the Bills surprise and gets a vet that really wants to come. Maybe both Josh and Stephon can recruit some talent? Dont forget, UDFAs make it all the time in the NFL and those two extra low picks this year are like gold to us, imho.... much better than a UDFA a sixth rounder can really help. Honestly, I'd feel better about drafting our talent if Epenesa, Groot and Boogie showed more raw flashes.... We ABSOLUTELY NEED those three to really rise up next season and have all three beat out their draft position. IDK? Can these defensive coaches develop some talent?

davefan66 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 The way Josh played Sunday would make FA’s think highly of our team. Who wouldn’t want to play with a guy that talented and gutsy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 One of the top destinations, without doubt. Yes, the weather sucks and it’s not a big city market but it’s a team ready to win it all. They would be coming to Bills Mafia, the best fan base in the world. They would be coming to a team ready to win the Super Bowl. They would be coming to a team that is a brotherhood. If you are a receiving weapon, and they did a little research they would see - Being a receiver with Josh Allen = Best year ever. They have Josh Allen, he is the main reason to join. Buffalo needs get aggressive this off season and do what it takes to get another playmaker and someone who can get to the passer on a consistent basis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solomon Grundy Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 It's sounding more like Brady will hang em up. Gronk said before signing in Tampa that Buffalo was a possibility. Gronk knows that Buffalo is on the cusp of winning a SB. He sees that they have a SB winning QB. He sees that TE is a need for the team. In 3-5 weeks he will decide rather he will retire. I feel like he will play one more season with his hometown team and help win SB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s be real Knox isn’t losing TE1 after the year he just had. Gronk is older and slower, not to mention his durability is still an issue. Do we spend money on Gronk knowing he may not be available when we need him, or use those funds elsewhere?

He will see a lot of time as TE2. Can you imagine the offensive playbook with Gronk and Knox? Knox can go back to being the H back. Him being on the field less will help with his durability. Gronk showed that he's still an impact player. Money on him will be well spent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Between FA and the draft I would like to see Bills add: RB- speed, can run wheel route- Breece in 2nd? Speed WR3- speed over the top. Diggs, Gabe, and stud speed WR would be very nice. Jameson Williams? Great value at 25 TE1B- two TE sets for Josh could be nightmares for opposing D-Gronk would be perfectCB IOL-get nastier. Tyler Linderbaum? If he is there, he will be pick IMO Edge-pass rush Big Nickel-can cover Kelse or WR NT- control line of scrimmage CB-speed to keep with Hill. The odds on favorite for 1st round pick currently IMO KR- devote roster spot if you have to. WR/KR would be great! P- Matt Araiza - Ive been banging the table for us to overdraft him Im guessing our first round pick, if we don't trade back which is strong possibility IMO, will be either CB, Edge, Big Nickel, WR, or IOL. Right now Im guessing one of those 5 is our 1st round pick. Im guessing CB if Linderbaum is not available.

Yes....and no. First off, there are players out there that prioritize winning and culture. There are guys that want to win a ring more than anything. They may have interest. However, them taking a lot less to play here may not happen. Players when signing here are already losing a ton due to the high state tax. So by signing for less and then being taxed high it's almost like a double pay cut. A opposed to some places that have low or no state tax and they see more of their contract dollars.

MrEpsYtown Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I think maybe guys in situations like Jerick McKinnon was last year. Signed a 1 year prove it, vet minimum deal, and now he is coming out smelling like roses because Mahomes and the rest of that team made him look good. BTW that is the type of player that would open up the offense even more. A guy who can run it between the tackles, but is also a really good receiver. Cordarrelle Patterson, McKinnon, JD McKissic (for real this time), perhaps a blazing Raheem Mostert coming off an injury. Increase team speed and flexibility.

Solomon Grundy Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) @Pete, I'm afraid that we will have to take Breece at 25. I'd go Metchie in 2nd. If the Bills could get Gronk, can you imagine a set with Davis, Diggs, Gronk, Metchie, Knox at H back and Breece in the backfield? The playaction game would be out of this world!! You can get a center like Dohnovan West, Alec Lindstrom or Nick Ford later in the draft. Edited January 25, 2022 by Solomon Grundy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beane has lots of chips and will be active IMO. Im guessing, especially if Linderbaum and Williams are gone, that we trade back. 25 is a good spot for action.

Beast Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) Players that want to win will certainly want to play with Allen, or QB's that are upper-tier. However, will the Bills organization take the route of say, the Steelers and build mostly from within and not make any big splash acquisitions? I think Beane will do what's necessary to put this team over the top. It will be an interesting off-season.
