That starts with blocking. Not the RB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Williams brings a different skill set, that would help. This is the last position to overpay, so it would have to be the right price...otherwise, I'm looking to 4th round or later in the draft. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 1 minute ago, ScottLaw said: That starts with blocking. Not the RB. That's true up to a point. They certainly need to improve their OL. The problem is, the Bills only have two RBs on the roster at the moment, and both of them are undersized guys that aren't well suited to that type of situation. I don't care how they do it. They can draft one in R7 for all I care, but to me, this seems like a good opportunity to pick up a proven veteran who fits the role at a price that is likely within their FA budget. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want Williams but only at the right price. If he wants too much, draft one 4th round or later and sign a FA for the minimum. Duke Williams being the worst option. There are going to be several solid RBs signing for next to nothing after a few weeks 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBFL Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 (edited) So with Montgomery heading to Detroit, one would presume he is Williams’ replacement and he won’t be returning? Think it is a bit of a drop in talent but the contract is what speaks volumes. Will be less than what Williams will fetch; whether it’s back in Detroit or elsewhere. impressed with Brad Holmes and the roster he’s setting up in Detroit. Super intriguing to see where they’re headed after the dysfunction and misery theyve sustained over the past few years.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Detroit just signed Montgomery. Perhaps they know Williams is leaving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelius Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I really enjoyed the Jamaal Williams story this year but I'm not liking the fit unless it's probably much cheaper than he wants. It was really one season. Prior to this year he felt downright Zack Moss-like. He was a 4.0 plodder that took touches away from Aaron Jones for much longer than he was a double digit TD back. He's also got six pretty heavy use seasons under his belt. I don't see where he fits really, and as much as people hate it, Devin's career ypc and stats in general are far better. Now D'Andre Swift? It would seem like three of the same with Hines and Cook but man is he dynamic. Averages like 6+ yards per touch whenever he's healthy. Also, every talking draft head and their mother has been projecting Bijan Robinson to the Lions for weeks now as if it's already a done deal. I don't want him in the 1st but I've got to assume somebody else gets him now, or the Lions really are clearing things out and Swift is on the block as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills offense needs more energy, physicality, passion and heart. Williams has a lot. Plus he knows where the goal line is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally disagree on David. Anyone who saw him last year could see signing him to a 2 year bridge deal until we figure out who our next starter is. He is a huge upgrade over Tremaine. Saffold was never in the same stratosphere with David. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
