At the right price.At the right price. The start of his career is been a little underwhelming so maybe that’ll keep the price tag low. And he’s had a front seat to see what Allen is capable of in the passing game. Maybe he would consider going to Buffalo to really jumpstart his career at a lower than market rate price.

Victory Formation Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 If I had to pick one it would be Christian Kirk. He would go great in the slot with Diggs and David on the outside. I also wouldn’t mind it if we brought OJ Howard in to backup Dawson Knox. Ultimately I think we go WR/TE in FA, it’s looking to be a deep draft for CB so I’m hoping we can go there RD1 and maybe draft another one RD3/RD4. Dane Jackson and Levi Wallace starting for us can’t happen again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 3 hours ago, MrEpsYtown said: Yeah that makes sense. My stance is that if they aren't going to invest in a slot guy, might as well invest in two tight ends who can play in the slot. Maybe a cheaper guy might be Ian Thomas, who they seemed to really like at draft time. Maybe a Maxx Williams type guy. So that makes some sense. Basically exchange the Beasley contract for Gesicki. I could be convinced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they win it all this year, but if they don't, they have a really small window. Beane put a team out there, without mortgaging the future, that would be on track for the Super Bowl if not for an end of game coaching meltdown. By continuing this method, we should have a contender year in/year out for the next decade. Would you rather make it to divisional round of the playoffs 10 times or win one super bowl? Real question.

billsfan89 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I think the Bills aren't going "big name" shopping in free agency, it doesn't fit their mold of sustainable winning. Right now I think they release Beasley and Mongo while restructuring Josh, Diggs, Tre, Hyde, D.Williams, Star, Dawkins and Milano. By releasing those two players and converting all that base salary to bonus money you have the Bills at about 41 million with 51 guys signed. That's about 25ish million to work with after taking into account the draft pool and the in season emergency fund. Now that's without resigning Phillips, Levi, Hughes, Mac, Bates (who is an RFA), Obada, Addision or T.Jones (there are other free agents but none I consider of value and I don't think Trubisky is resigning.) So assuming they resign Phillips, Levi, Bates, Hughes or Addision, T Jones and Mac you are likely eating up a lot of that 25 million. At best you might be left with 5ish million or so which might help sign a vet depth player or two nothing splashy. But I think keeping most of the team together and having the chance to add a depth piece or two before entering into the draft is a great position to be in. IF the team cuts Mongo, Beasley and makes those resignings I would like to see the team go BPA straight across the board in the draft and build a long term winner.

Right now I think the Bills are approaching it as though the playoffs are a complete crap shoot and you are best off trying to get as many opportunities to come out on top as opposed to betting hard on a short term run. I think the Bills right now are best to bet on their own drafting and player development and not make too many splashy moves that may cripple the team long term and not have the desired impact short term anyway. 8 minutes ago, transient said: Or it may just be a Sabres fan who lives out of market and wanted to catch a few games...

Retaining the teams own talent was their big moves (sizable deals given out to Milano, D.Williams and Mongo) and they supplemented through the draft mostly. I think this off-season will look similar to 2021. They will likely resign their own players (Phillips, Wallace, T Jones, Mac and Hughes or Addision) and then maybe make one or two mid-level additions like the Bills did with Sanders and Trubisky. Which would be great, keep the talent you have, add a bit of depth and a role player and then fill out your remaining needs via the draft.

LABILLBACKER Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 As many have said, picking up Gescki would be huge. But it would require him to take a little less than 10-12M which he's projected. He would also be making more than Knox which might not go over well. Max Williams would be a more affordable TE2 and great blocker. I think either Scherff or Chandler Jones will be the big FA haul costing approx. 16M/yr. Our future CB2 will come in the 1st round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filthymcnasty08 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 DJ Chark is one I would look at - he has near-elite upside and has to be respected with his speed. Has been trapped in a dumpster fire FO/QB situation and would be a massive add to this offense. He has shown game-breaking abilities. With Adams/Godwin and others drawing humongous numbers, he is one you can get to come to Buf for a "prove it" under JA and let him test the market again after a massive year/2.

The point is obvious though. While I agree in the past Beane hasn't picked up too many high priced FAs, it takes two to tango. Imagine if Olson chose us, or Watt. Those are both big name players What I have seen, is Beane doesnt throw out large contracts in FA. He prefers 2 year deals with flexibility to adjust on the fly. I could see him trying to entice a pretty decent FA to come to Buffalo and be the player to put us over the top. I also believe we will only sign 4-5 players this year, Beane structures his roster so he doesn't need to bring in 10+ new faces (2019 being the outlier). Expect 2ish depth players, 1-2 key backups, 1-2 potential starters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
