Both are probably the best safeties we can get in UDFA if you sort through all the various scouting profiles. We need safety depth because what we do know is Poyer isn’t happy and we have uncertainty in his backups. I'm not a pro scout. Just posted some guys I liked. I'll look up Weatherford and Blankenship. I agree, Buffalo missed badly on some S depth this draft and they need it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh? Out of the 8 picks, 3 were offense, 4 were defense and 1 was STs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are predicting another decline in passing yardage for Allen? If Allen just gets back to his 2020 production.....about 285 yards per game.......then he will throw for 4800+. Remember.........his numbers last year were tamped down by some pretty bad games........like the 120 yard day against the Falcons.........and some really terrible weather. I think he puts up Brady/Herbert/Stafford/Mahomes type yardage this year.......if the OL or an injury to Diggs/Davis doesn't sabotage him. Last season was a relative struggle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, Buffalo missed badly on some S depth this draft and they need it They already have 3 guys that they really like. Josh Thomas was relegated to the PS last year. I don’t think the Bills are anywhere near as worried about depth or Poyer as the Fans 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhat hate that about McDermott… he is still too defensive focused for a team that’s success is all about Josh Allen. Top 4 picks: CB - Need RB - Pass catching (wr ability and running) LB - Milano clone - WR - speed and talent 1st 4 picks - 2 Defensive and 2 offensive Then you had the 6+7th round - these are projects essentially 1 ST - Punter 2 Defensive players (LB and CB) double dip for depth/ST 1 Offensive Player - Tackle that probably projects more inside with hi movement scores. A near split of Offense/Defense with the offense hitting O-Line, WR, and RB. Seems like most of the bases were covered - especially as both RB and WR have some position flexibility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always nice to have royalty on the team. Duke Williams replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhat hate that about McDermott… he is still too defensive focused for a team that’s success is all about Josh Allen. I would’ve liked a legit outside WR with some speed and size, but with the way this draft went, we would’ve had to take one at 25. Absolutely insane runs on WR’s. Luckily, similar to the year we got Davis in the 4th, this was a loaded WR class that allowed us to take a really talented WR in Shakir twenty spots after we took Davis. Cook is an absolute home run pick. He can be an absolute monster in this Offense. Our starting five on the OL is likely set. They signed Quessenberry as swing tackle insurance if Doyle doesn’t make the jump and, for whatever reason, Kromer must see something in Ford. One of these days, we’ll give Allen a blue chip draft pick on Offense (hopefully), but Cook & Shakir is a really nice pair of weapons.

If your response to that original post is “huh” you are either are playing dumb as some sort of strange reason to excuse them for it or not paying attention… Yes 1st round picks have been slanted to defense, but they have continued to acquire assets for the offense - Trades for Diggs - FAs like Brown, Sanders, Beasley, Crowder, McKenzie at wr alone. Draft picks and FA for RB and TE - Knox, Sweeney, Moss, Singletary, and now Cook all drafted for Josh. O-Line - picks and FA - more from the FA side, but you have 2 draft picks at each tackle, center and guard as FA, and a trade to get Bates as a UDFA. They have put a ton of resources into the Entire team - you may not agree with the moves, but they have continued to upgrade and provide weapons as he has developed. The Bills have typically just about split between offense and defense under this regime with yes some higher picks slanted to defense, but they have not ignored either side - hence being the only NFL team with Top 5 offense and Defense last year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those struggles put them on the road in the playoffs where they were 0-3 under McDermott.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 6 hours ago, MAJBobby said: Like I do every year I will keep all the reported signings below. However they tend to come fast and Furious. So if you see one not listed here feel free to say it and tag me with link. Will update the main post. as we are in the rounds players are sitting there thinking might be better to go UDFA at this point I figured I would start the thread to be ready to start updating it. I know in past I loved UDFA looking for players to still contribute right away. Bills are no longer at that point but get me players with at least ONE elite trait RB Raheem Blackshear TE Jalen Wydermyer - there is a chance to make the team here CB Travon Fuller DT Prince Emili WR Malik Williams WR Neil Pau’u IOL Alex Anderson 75 on Contract (with draft picks) 7 UDFAs reportedly signed 82 on roster (8 open spots) Add Syracuse DE Kingsley Jonathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've spent A LOT more money/cap space in unrestricted free agency on defense in AND used most of their #1 picks on defense. It's not very close to split evenly. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand you may want more weapons on offense, but you can't preface that by thinking the defense was great and didn't need to be addressed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they gave up 42 in their biggest game of the year when Allen should have had it won twice already… The D also gave up 41,36 and 33 points during losses throughout the regular season which put them on the road in the playoffs,,, Edited May 1, 2022 by Aussie Joe 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
