I do think there is a chance they are in on Justin Simmons or Kamren Curl. To me, those are both elite guys. Simmons is a top 5 safety. Curl is a great fit, excellent and is about to turn 25. After that, you have younger guys in that 25-27 range like Julian Blackmon, Jordan Whitehead, Mike Edwards, K'Von Wallace, and Jordan Fuller. I think we likely get one in this group and I like Blackmon a lot. I think he is an awesome fit in what we do defensively. He's a former corner who reminds me of Micah Hyde. Disappointing young guys like Jeremy Chinn and Ashtyn Davis. If you add these guys, I still think you have question marks in the secondary. 30+ vets like Eddie Jackson and Rayshawn Jenkins.

Knowing what we know now, on Day 2, what would your plan be if you were GM? Me, I think I sit tight at this point and let things settle. Beane plugged some holes. If I'm him, I see what happens at safety and edge over the coming weeks. My guess is there will be some value at safety. If I had to make a move, I would make a run at Chase Young ( see what I did there?) and see if he is willing to go mercenary and sign a 2 year deal (that really is a one year prove it) like Floyd did last year. BTW, saw Chelsea vs Northampton last night. Must say it was fun but not really thrilling like so many soccer fans suggest. Atmosphere was more polite than raucous. The Northampton fans were in one section and shouted the entire match(did I get that right?). The Chelsea folks mostly sat and watched. It was a Monday night. No beer in the stands and their main beer was Singha which is their sponsor. Thank you for letting us know where you are and what you are doing. We’ve all been worried sick wondering about those 2 specifics! Go Bills!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dillenger4 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 We are re-signing our guys which is good. But we haven't moved the needle at all. If we are living on "hope" that we draft good players that will make an impact I fear we are all in for a long season. For me, I expected a tough season coming up anyway. Lot's of chatter last year about our "window closing". I do think it is true and it's closing fast - kinda like the Bengals. Unless Beane works some magic we are in a tough spot.

Your Brown Eye Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Hey fellas, I'm just on a safari hunt in Kenya, I came across a troop of gorillas and crushed the alpha silverback, and now I'm their leader. The local tribesmen are very impressed. Kind of a big deal. Anyways, I think Beane has his eye on a couple of mid-level depth players, but nothing that moves the needle. Maybe he shoots his shot with a starting-caliber WR. 8 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they can gain some more space by extending Johnson and. Maybe a couple other minor moves. I don’t expect much more but as FA goes I expect low end wr safety dt de and ol signings. Kinda like Rapp and puna last year type deals. If there’s not an easy out on that Diggs contract within the next two years, that’ll be the next albatross choking this team.

No beer in the stands and their main beer was Singha which is their sponsor. Edge is done. With Epenesa signing no way we make a play for any significant edge in FA. Will likely draft one and maybe even re-sign Lawson or someone like that on vet min but we are done with anything significant there. We have Miller, Rousseau, Epenesa, Kingsley Johnathan under contract currently (and Cameron Kline but he is probably cut or PS). A veteran at good value for Safety is a must at some point, and then likely a RB and WR and rotational DT as well, but we are done at edge. Edit: Don't get me wrong, would have loved going after Young but signing Epenesa prohibits anything further there. A little surprised we didn't just let him go but will wait to see the contract details before judging fully.

All I Need is Hope Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Good start for Beane. Nice job with restructures, extensions, pay cuts. Excited to see what we do with all the draft capital. If Von comes back to close to his previous play levels, it will go a long way. Still think we target some edge rusher with high level physical traits in the draft and maybe another vet. Agree that a vet safety is on Beane’s to-do. Again, I think it’s going to be fascinating to see how Beane manages the draft! Hopefully a massive infusion of potential coming our way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toyo321 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Yeah, unfortunately the consensus is the team needs to get younger and we need new talent, so far this has not happened yet. We needed to shed money to get cap friendly for 2024 & 2025. I am really hoping that we hit the draft with #1 WR, #2 S, and #3 or #4 WR. Then let the rest of the chips fall where they may. We have already been down this road and we lost last year because we could not push the ball down the field when it mattered in the entire game vs KC at home with our current WR corps. If that was not the most damning kryptonite to neutralize Josh then I don't know what else to say. We had no deep passing game at all, our longest pass was just 15 yards, KC had 32, 25, 29 yard completions. No speed at WR to get any separation and that has to be fixed this year. All to often in 2023 Buffalo came up short and did not make enough game changing plays down field, in a lot of games, when it mattered or when we need it to happen. We are one of the worst teams with YAC stats in the league. To take the next step we have to be able to do this on a consistent basis, which right now is the missing component on this offense at WR.
