Also WR’s generally take 2-3 years to develop. He's had 72% catch rate the last 2 years. And he might just be BPA at 25, but it's hard to say pre-combine. But yeah, if the Bills take a wr that high, the idea would be for him to turn into a1 in 2-3 years, which is when Diggs turns 31-32. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Boo Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I was one of the biggest proponents of DK on this board during the draft. That said, I've soured on DK. The talent is undeniable, but I don't like where his head is. His Twitter spat with Shannon Sharpe and some of his selfish antics on the field (resulting in penalties) have changed my feelings toward him as a player.

Magox Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I agree with the idea of getting another quality receiving threat. I think the best way to leverage talent acquired for this team is to get more weapons for Allen. Allen is the far and away the most important player and getting more quality receiving threats for him has a sort of a multiplier effect. It’s not a coincidence that just about every time a receiver joins the Bills they have their best years ever. Load talent around Allen and a good blocking line and the Bills will always be near the top. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshAllin Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 (edited) So will Gabe take over the slot position and Cole would be out?

This sounds like a nice idea but Davis has earned a shot for the outside WR opposite Diggs. A disruptive pass rusher would probably have a bigger impact on the team.

billsfan714 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 (edited) No I would rather have a young guy on a rookie contract for 4-5 years. We have Oliver to re-sign, then it will be what to pay Knox and Gabe. Especially when I'm worried Beane will sign Edmunds to 5 years and 80 million.

So I don’t know about the comparison, but I do know what I see in Metcalf. He gives up on plays in a way you don’t see very often, in any game, from any player and it’s usually when you need him most (after some struggles). Diggs doesn’t strike me as the kind of person to have ever been like that, and if so, he has grown tremendously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl2526 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I'd love to have Metcalf. The biggest obstacle to making a trade would be the contract he's due to earn when his rookie deal is up. The success Buffalo has enjoyed has mad managing the salary cap more challenging. For that reason I think Beane would steer clear of that deal. He doesn't tend to splurge like that for what might end up being a short term gain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 No. The problem with this team is defense and OL. Well its really coaching but that is for a different thread. Allen will make the WRs better. All star QBs do. The issues on offense are the interior OL and TE #2. The issues on defense is Edmunds is overrated and makes no plays, they need another CB#2, they need an underage ang long term fix at DT 1-tech, and a pure edge pass rusher. Want to make a trade with the Seahawks. Trade Edmunds straight up for Wagner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a highly unlikely scenario for many reasons - salary cap, impact to Diggs and likelihood that the Hawks just don’t let him go are at the top of the list. However, there are some uncertainties regarding Metcalf future in Seattle. As for me, If the Bills could get him for a 1st and a 4th I would say do it all day long every day. Could you imagine the nightmare matchups created with Diggs, Metcalf and Knox in the game as your base set? You have all combinations of size, speed, route running, ability to play at every level and Josh heaving the rock. I love the guy but we dont NEED him so he's not worth trading for, unless it was something ridiculous like a forth. We should have drafted him when we had the chance, i definitely was a big advocate of his along with Cooper Kupp and TJ Watt. Imagine this team with those three guys on it.

Aside from the OL or finding a TE better than Knox, it's the most important thing we can do. And folks want to talk about LBs for God's sake! Don't forget--Josh had the DEAD LAST WORST YAC in the NFL this year! Get another stud so that when KC takes Diggs out of the game, we have the other stud wide open to kill them with. If they take that guy out of the game, we kill them with Diggs. KC has Kelce and Hill! Not saying upgrades wouldn't be nice but Davis did excellent when Diggs was shut down. Signing DJ Chark and Braxton Berrios would go along way to upgrading the position without spending draft capitol.

Use your # 1 on a fast fast corner . There are quite a few in this draft. Do not miss the opportunity. Not a bad strategy but we dont need a big RB for pass pro. Our RBs are fine but if we can get a dynamic playmaker at RB then we should. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warriorspikes51 Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 (edited) He only has a cap hit of 4 mil this year. UFA after this season.

Hebert19 Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Not a chance. He's limited in what he can do due to his lack of flexibility and route running. His season last year was the first sign of that....although the TDs were a nice number his stats were not worth a first. Grab one of the top 5 in this draft and they will have longer better careers than Metcalfe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
