Tolstoy Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 As we wait for the Cincinnati game, I was thinking about the Bills roster, and which positions could use some help in the offseason. My initial assumption was that a 12-3 team would have a super talented roster and very few needs, but as I started to review each position, it became clear to me that the opposite is the case--there are very few roster positions on this team that don't need some form of upgrade. Tell me what you think about this: QB: all set (assuming Keenum and Barkely are back) RB: I suspect they will let Singletary walk, so they will probably need a talented back to complement Cook. Even if they keep Singletary, the Bills arguably need a back who can break tackles and gain tough yards. WR: At the moment, the Bills look a bit weak here at all positions behind Diggs. Maybe that will change with the emergence of Shakir, or Davis playing a bit better, but one could wish for two dangerous receivers (ala Miami or Cincinnati). TE: Seems like we need another pass-catching TE behind Knox. OL: Definitely need to invest in interior o-line. Right? DL: I guess we are all set here (assuming we keep who we have), but the Vonn injury leaves a bit of a hole. LB: we may be all set here, but if they let Edmunds walk, they will need a LB DB: we are ok at corner, but we have to hope Benford or Elam can become a full-time starter. That said, our starting safeties are aging, and I suspect we would want an upgrade over Hamlin and/or Johnson. Kicking team: seems ok So, all in all, QB, DL, and kicking team seem like the only areas we would not be seeking an infusion of talent. This seems a bit odd, since the Bills are evidently very talented, and apparently have a "deep" roster (or so I have heard). Curious to hear what others think. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg S Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 For the draft I would hope Beane goes... OL - needs to get better. Bills are usually terrible in short yardage situations. WR - need another weapon/playmaker to go along with Diggs S - Poyer and Hyde are both north of 30. Need to get younger here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearNorth Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Food for thought. Since 2017 when McDermott arrived [and Beane shortly after], Bills have drafted 45 players. 28 are still with the Bills. Of the 17 others, Araiza is a FA, Proehl [XFL], Vosean Joseph [CFL] - EVERY other player the Bills have drafted since 2017 is on an NFL roster [incl IR]. Wonder if any other front office has 42 of 45 drafted players from past 6 years on NFL Rosters. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 The Bills need to invest in the oline heavily, both veterans and draft picks. They need to bring in a better #2 receiver and preferably a better slot receiver as well, unless Shakir can develop into that role. On defense, just be sure to re-sign the defensive line. And re-sign Edmunds if you can afford him. Otherwise, MLB is a big hole that needs to be a major priority. But overall, the team is in a good spot. Beane has built in a lot of wiggle room in the cap and they have plenty they can free up. They have good starters in many positions, and lots of good depth. They have superstars in Allen, Diggs, and White, as well as budding stars in Rousseau and Oliver. This is the team we have been waiting for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextmanup Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 I'd be 100% in favor of acquiring a better backup QB to prevent our season from being lost if Josh goes down for 4 games or something like that. Biggest need: #1a WR star to help out Diggs. Remaining need: completely re-invent the OL by all means available.

I like your draft selections too. I think WR is bigger need than line as Bills are a passing team. As weak as the line has looked at times they really only have one starting spot open as they are not giving up on Brown who has only played 2 seasons and had no training camp or pre season due to recovering from injury. They may bring in some competition at tackle, but is his job to lose. If Morse retires, then could see them more likely bringing in a vet guard or center short term and draft center guard, but could see them moving Bates to center for 2023.

Bangarang Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 The priority every offseason should be making sure Josh is protected and has enough weapons. This team is only going as far as he takes us. Beyond that, we could use some better depth in the secondary. I'd prefer to keep Poyer. Not sure what they do with Edmunds. He's probably played some of his best football this year which is always concerning in a contract year. I wouldn't want to see crazy money thrown at him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreggTX Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Good assessment. Just a couple minor differences in my mind and 1 addition. I like Singletary more than most, it seems. I think the best compliment to Cook would be a heavier back for snow games and poor traction conditions. At WR, I'd like a guy with world class speed. Diggs has decent speed, but a guy like Hill gives defenses headaches. Lastly, we need upgrades across the OL except Dawkins who would be better at G. Brown might develop into an elite OT, but right now he's a liability -- Not the worst, but way closer to the bottom than the top. I don't get why people overlook him when evaluating our OL. He's the weakest link and it makes no sense. He has elite athletic skills, but plays like a backup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threads like this shouldn’t be allowed I'll answer this question....... It's because this is what the Bills, (GM, Personnel Dept., Scouting Dept.) are "talking about" right now and have been discussing / evaluating since the season started, continue to do at this moment, and will do up through free agency and till the draft. As a Bills fan, it interests me, (And apparently many others), what the team is doing, not just on the playing field, but in all aspects of the organization. More specifically, what the Bills are planning today are indicators of what the team will look like in the future - and that interests me. It's what all teams, all organizations do. On a personal level, quite honestly, the planning process interests me as much as the game itself - that's not an exaggeration.

First Round Bust Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) its more a question what they will do rather than what I would do: as much as we need IOL, the only high picks made are Ford and Brown (a bust and a work-in-progress)...so likely...no...because you dont draft based on immediate need...and...add the head coach with a strong preference not to play rooks....but...Morse concussions and last year of his pricey contract may have them make take an interior who can play spot guard for one year with the rest of the cavemen and then switch to C the year after ??? secondly...Davis coming-up on last year of contract...not a given as sometimes plays like a number two, and at times a number three...but likely to get over-paid as Robert Woods once did as a number two, and if so it wont be us...simply cannot loose our passing game fastball so a higher pick on a WR makes sense esp since can be mentored year one with spot duty...Shakir becomes the slot guy ?....exit or paycut to McKenzie in favor of more speed and better hands ? Crowder the backup on a cheap contract ? the rest of the rounds...best athlete available...DT for sure, and the usual tackle and or guard taken late round...Hamlin the only db-safety being drafted by this regime ? does Benford project to that postion next season for Poyer ? fwiw...the gal pal is a nurse, a head nurse (yes, oh yes and OH YES) and says Morse can play tackle, as he did in college and his mobility is still good, and less likley to get concussed on the exterior compared to the interior small space ?

nosejob Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 I think priority 1 is finding Morse's future replacement. If he doesn't retire to avoid permanent disability, I would be happy for one more year, but we gotta have a top notch center, hopefully in the draft to back him up when he misses time. The other high pick should be Saffold's replacement. Add one quality FA. I also hope we can find a WR like Chase instead of paying 20 per to a FA. But don't forget where our draft spot will be....in each round. I think this is the year for Beane to trade up to secure high quality picks at least in the 1st 4 rounds and I don't care if he uses some of next year's to do it.
