Time to Rebuild? Too Many Beane Holes.

[OutOfBubbleGum]

What are the ultimate trade away options if Buffalo calls it a rebuild process?

[Nuncha]

Samuel, Milano, Knox make way too much for their production.  There are a few others.  Huge contracts for very little on the field needs to be addressed.  

[LabattBlue]

Even if the Bills take on massive dead cap hits over the next two years, they still have to find a way to fix the issues via draft and bargain basement FA. 

 

Anyone have faith that the current regime(front office AND coaching staff) can accomplish this, or will it be more JA prime years flushed down the drain?

[PauleeeWalnuts]

If they let Beane rebuild the team and allow McD to keep coaching, we will have all the same problems.

Start with new Head Coach and GM. 

[Shortchaz]

They’re not doing anything drastic with the new stadium opening next year imo.

I think it is the other way round. If they keep asking McDermott to coach a Beane built roster it won't get any better. But they are tied as far as I am concerned. One goes both go.

Samuel and Milano will be cut. Knox will be asked to take big pay cut or will also be let go. That's just the beginning,  Beane has a LOT of work ahead  of him and better be bold. His neck is definitely on the line now

Going to start drafting guys with speed,  this team is undersized and not enough speed at critical positions.  Speed and size matter,  i could care less about if they guy has great character

Beane got us in this mess. He needs to go.

I have an idea to rebuild 

 

In free agency, start by overpaying for someone’s gadget wr and pay like a number 2

 

Then the draft is simple 

 

round one

Overdraft a middling prospect for need. I’d start with an undersized, injury prone linebacker in round one 

 

Round two. You can never have too many lineman. So I’d draft a 3 tech d lineman who will get placed on ir week 3

 

round 3: you realized that the 3 tech d lineman will get injured week 3. So you draft another 3 tech that is a hard working, undersized guy. He will tear his acl in training camp

 

round 4: now we are getting serious. We need to double down. So the choice is between another undersized, injury prone linebacker 

vs an undersized 3 tech. I think you choose the undersized linebacker

 

round 5: it’s time to trade down for pics. I’d take 2 injury prone cornerbacks that will likely end up on ir around week 6

 

round 6: time for a 7th o lineman 

he will show progress. Then he will retire after week 8 due to multiple injuries

 

round 7: time for a wide receiver. My goodness, he looks great in camp! He will solve all our wr issues 

now he will get placed on practice squad. And you guessed it. He will get called up week 9 and get placed on ir week 11

 

 

 

thats my plan 

[Big Blitz]

Too much dead cap.  
 

A “rebuild” is not in the cards for this team unless you can tell us how we can operate with 40 plus million in cap space starting in 2027.  
 

By then, that’s 2 more years of Josh wasted.  
 

 

And why finding replacements for Beane and McD will be tricky - new regime isn’t inheriting a team with 100 mill in cap space. 
 

It will be inheriting a roster of old overpaid jags that may not match their philosophy.  
 

 

 

This is fast approaching a complete catastrophe.

I agree with speed. They lack it almost everywhere. Don't have a speed edge rusher. Don't have a fast receiver. They finally have some at corner with Max but he is still a bit up and down at the moment. They used to have speed at the second level that was the trade off for lacking size - if you threw short of the sticks to the flats Milano and Taron chased you down and tackled you. But the injuries have taken their toll on both. 

 

But fundamentally, even more than speed.... they just don't have enough talent.

We’ve hit catastrophe now. Would you rather continue to not win with McD & Beane or try a new approach

Thought it was, if he got us into this mess, he has to get us out. At least that's what my Dad always yelled at me... Er, suggested calmly. (& I tried to just go).

Josh Allen masks 90% of this team's problems.
