WTF? Why? And exactly my point on Crowder… dudes thrown a lot FA $$$ in the trash along with his early round picks. We didn’t pay Howard a lot of money. You want Beane to be omnipotent and predict all injuries? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, he was the main guy I wanted at DE in that draft - but I didn't think we had a shot at Rousseau. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianthomas Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 hated the Boogie pick at the start, as well as many other early picks we've made (hard not to really), but i had hoped we would trade for some oline help or player to help us win NOW. A 5th rd pick for 2024/25 does nothing to help us NOW. Arizona traded Josh Jones to Houston for a 5th rd pick, would've liked to see us add a player like him, especially since our oline depth has taken a hit & its likely the most important area we need to improve anyways, outside of MLB. It is what it is i guess, GO BILLS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even have a 2nd on Boogie. He went a full round before I had him graded. He did get some first round buzz in some quarters... I just never saw how he won at the NFL level. He only won in college by being a full grown 24 year old man mauling teenage boys. Limited speed. No bend. Bad hand usage. Poor technique. No rush moves. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPT Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 This feels like a favor to Schoen. Stashing him on the practice squad would have been more valuable than a late round pick two years from now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the difference between contending for a Super Bowl and actually winning a Super Bowl is likely those 1st/2nd round misses. Still love the dude, dont want to fire him. Still happy to have the Bills at this level of perennial contender. But gotta get better finding the top talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 It was a forgone conclusion we would keep Shaq as a body while Von is on PUP, then he’s either PS or gone. We had one to trade. It was either Boogie or Epenesa. We weren’t going to keep both as we most likely keep 5 interior. So Beane has been working the angles for what he can get back for either and which one is he is easier to trade. I’m not surprised by the trade, but disappointed Beane couldn’t have gotten something higher or a player. It didn’t happen. Its not a great situation, but Basham did flash at times, had 4.5 sacks last year, and was ok for a 2nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan4 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 2 hours ago, Roundybout said: We should be like the Chiefs and draft a worthless running back in the first round. Or the Raiders and take Clelen Ferrell in the top-10. I don’t think we should be knocking the chiefs draft record. The chiefs are always plugging young players into the lineup and getting contributions. Their 2022 draft class just won them a super bowl. Veach hit on almost every pick and got contributions from many 2022 drafted players right away. https://www.nfl.com/news/chiefs-super-bowl-success-started-with-historic-2022-draft-class I like Brandon Beane, but I’d swap him for Veach and the chiefs scouting staff in a heart beat.

How would we have done that if we'd cut him to put him on the practice squad they'd have claimed him off of waivers. The only way this is a favor is that they didn't have to worry about someone ahead of them making a claim but they still had to give us a pick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
