Tipster19 Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 This may increase his percentage of success in finding better talent, hopefully it takes more risk out of his selections. The only thing left for acquiring better talent this year seems to be the draft. Right now finding quality of player is the biggest challenge facing McBeane during their tenure imo. 5 2 6 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanForever19 Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 In a vacuum, maybe. However, this year with 24 Free Agents including multiple starters and being over the cap - I don't know that we can afford to be giving up picks in a Draft where we already only own 6 picks. I think trading down is much more likely this season. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 They need all of their early/mid round picks this year. They also need to hit on at least 4 of them imo, especially two on the OL and a replacement for either Poyer or Edmunds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GETTOTHE50 Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Just draft offensive lineman early. They are normally the safer picks and turns out that we need them 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it BPA or positional value, or BPA at a position of need? I'm so confused!🤔😱😂😂 I do agree, OL and WR should be priority (at least as of today).👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortchaz Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 just get out of the second round since we never hit on anyone there. See if we can’t get 10 round 5 picks for our 2nd round pick. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has drafted literally 2 corners in the first 4 rounds in his FIVE drafts as Bills GM which is waaaaaayyyy below the league average.

Taron Johnson and Kaiir Elam. Yes, and they were both 1st rounders to play in a zone. One he drafted after snubbing his nose at Patrick Mahomes. The other he traded up for. Utterly shameful and waaaaayyyyy above league average. 😉 I do however get your point. This year I expect a 1st round safety because we "need" one.

TheyCallMeAndy Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 (edited) I’m starting to think it might be time to see if there’s a 3 Bills Drive, you’d think this team went 4-14 this year. Their record is even more impressive seeing Beane can’t draft, the FA signings are all busts, coaches are clueless, and Allen regressed.

Those picks will likely end up on the practice squad where they'll only get plucked by other teams. If those picks 4-6 can be used to get you a quality starter/major contributor for the upcoming season, then do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Beane didn't draft White. Beane drafted Taron in the 4th and Kaiir in the 1st. His other defensive bacm picks are day 3. The Bills have NOT overprioritised DBs under this regime. The evidence is very clear. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
