BillsVet Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 17 minutes ago, JMM said: There will be your first three picks, almost certainly. Order will depend on their big board, but it will be WR, MLB, and swing tackle. Bills lead the league in taking the best player available at a position of defense. It could well go down that way after the CB, RB, LB sequence last year. 16 minutes ago, Marcus Aurelius said: What exactly are his health issues, his health history? I'd imagine he's pretty stoic about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 I like power backs so I'm happy. I don't think he's our RB1, but he provides a dimension this team has been lacking. Don't need Josh to put his life on the line in short yardage situations now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see a LB at #27 but the OL needs some depth and another WR that could push Davis isn't out of the question. Possibly some safety depth as well.

Doc Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 4 minutes ago, SCBills said: Please get a WR2 by the time the draft ends.. because I really want to give Beane credit for upgrading Singletary, McKenzie and Kumerow’s spots on the roster. Love the signings today. I'm thinking that Sherfield is #2. They already have Shakir and signed Harty to play the slot. 3 minutes ago, Big Turk said: 4 games played against the Bills...3 games over 100 yards and 5 TDs. That's pretty good. Averages 6.4 YPC against us. That's a move Belicheat would make. Sign a guy from another team who has hurt you in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanForever19 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 2 minutes ago, JJGauna said: Last time the Pats beat us Damien had 103 yards and 3 touchdowns. He had 15 touchdowns in 2021. If he’s healthy he can be tough to stop, a perfect complement to Cook. People seem to not remember how hard he crushed us on the ground in that game. He's a beast. Extremely powerful runner. There's a reason he was considered one of the top RB's available in FA. Definitely more than "just a guy". And the perfect compliment to James Cook and Nyheim Hines. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Hucklebuck Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 The Sherfield, Harris, McGovern and Harty (even Boettger) signings are on-brand for the Bills. Modest, veteran players, and this time the Bills prioritized guys who were younger, not guys at the end Saffold, Sanders, Frank Gore, Star L, Addison. And Beane tends to sign someone to help the room on both sides of the ball, instead of loading up on one side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maine-iac Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Harris will essentially do Motor stuff. I'm not sure I'd go so far as to call him a power back or others saying he's faster than Motor. He has 10 pounds on Motor so he should carry guys a little better but they both run bigger than their size. Neither is a power back. Harris ran a 4.57 at the combine. Yes it's faster than Motor but not much. Seems like they're very similar and that's not actually a bad thing, Motor did a lot of good things here and I feel like Harris could as well. Just hope the money is right. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be and it should be. Harris is a different RB than Singletary and better at what he does than Singletary is at what he does. With Cook and Hines, we needed a bruiser. And one that has proved he can do it. This is an upgrade, not a bad tradeoff. Edited March 21, 2023 by BillsFanForever19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyDays Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 5 minutes ago, RocCityRoller said: Good day by Beane getting those role players. It continues a trend of the scouting staff and Beane finding good role players for low salaries. It's definitely been a strength of this regime.

Yeah...Beane's free agency prowess this off-season really gives him a leg up in the Executive of the Year award for 2023. On offense alone the haul of two WR3/4 types, a guard, and now a RB speak to that in volumes. Especially considering they pushed more cap down the road to get themselves into a position to sign these guys. He'll solidify the award when they go safety or LB in Round 1. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was up there with Miles Sanders and David Montgomery as the RB's with the highest market value going into FA. I'd be surprised if he comes in under 5.5 annually.
