LABILLBACKER Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Very good signing. As others have said, get a better and cheaper vet than Murray/Harris and draft someone late like Gore jr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2003Contenders Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Nice signing (assuming money is minimal). My guess is that they will still want to bring in a veteran who can be relied upon for pass protection/blitz pick-ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
without a drought Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Hopefully he will become the player that everyone thought he was last year. He made a great first impression with his TD catch and run. Then he basically did nothing but hit the hole quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harmonkillebrew Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 I'm getting the sense OBD has no sense of urgency to improve this offseason. Stay the course and hope we're luckier this year won't do it I'm afraid. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4thandGoal Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Love this signing --- Whether he is a 2 or a 3 --- I will take it and then add a rookie. There is not a veteran I want unless maybe CEH with his experience and his injury history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn’t a coincidence they released half of the defense and let the other half walk to FA. Edited March 14 by DapperCam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 He did a great job as a change of pace back and I doubt he cost much but man, I am getting nervous with each FA pickup that isn't a S 9 minutes ago, LABILLBACKER said: Very good signing.

Pretty obvious Beane is prioritizing the draft to improve the Bills, which is the correct decision when you have minimal money to spend.

What would you have done to change all this without being deeper in the hole. They are getting somewhat younger on the o-line. Our 2nd or 3rd RB will be better and younger then Murray. Our second WR, which should be a rookie will be just as good as Davis but also dont sleep on our rookie , or Shorter or Hollis. They lost journeyman along the Dline and will add thru the draft and cheaper contracts in FA. The LB will be better with Milano hopefully healthy for the whole year. The D Backs will be the same and we just need to add a safety(one in FA and one in the draft) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGFOOTspaceman Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 19 minutes ago, KDIGGZ said: He looked good but I hope they don't rest on their laurels and think these 2 plus a rookie is good enough. I'd like to see them add a good veteran on the cheap Was Harris a 1 year deal? Thought it was a two but I could be mistaken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there some FA RB you'd rather have that'll be around the same price as Johnson? I can't think of any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 8 minutes ago, Logic said: I don't think you can get much better at RB3 than what Johnson gave the Bills last season. Aside from playing special teams, he also ran the ball with burst and power and caught it well out of the backfield. He's probably also making vet minimum or close to it. Good signing. It really wasn't much: 132 yards rushing and 88 receiving. Wouldn't it have been better to spread those touches (3-4 per game for Johnson) amongst Murray and Cook? Bills drafted Singletary and Moss and ultimately let them go because they didn't want to pay them second contract money down the road for what they were getting (the Bills got Hines for Moss--oof). They replaced these two, ultimately, with Murray and Johnson--the former an ancient journeyman, the latter a career journeyman scrub. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

78thealltimegreat Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Solid move there’s a couple teams you could make the case TY could be RB1. Now RB room is set even if they contract a guy which they probably will anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
