Party Like It’s 1999: Bills Playoffs and Off-Season Thread

[MikelArteta]

So many teams out there need qbs, I'm fearful of who the bills may get because obviously tyrod won't be back.


Broncos, browns, Redskins, jets, giants, Cardinals, jags, bills, could all be looking

Bills need to fix the online, esp if they move from tyrod, any drop back passer will get killed behind that line

@K-Apps @Supreme Leader Reinscarf @HNIC973 @A.R.$ @duck @BoBurnz @amillerjr


What are everybody's thoughts on what we should do this offseason?

What to do at QB, draft picks?

Who would you bring back?

I appreciate Tyrod but it's time to look elsewhere in my opinion. Dennison can go too.

The OLine should be upgraded but Taylor/the WRs made them look worse at times. The QB situation in Minnesota is interesting. They obviously aren't keeping all of them but two have concerning injury histories. I just don't want them to reach for one of these QBs in the draft

I'm scared of some josh McCown/Nate Peterman with a mason Rudolph as the qb in waiting

I still think Taylor got the short end of the stick but such is life.

First priority, oddly enough given all we've invested in the position, is getting a DE or something that can manage any kind of a pass rush. Saw it in the WC Game even in the highlights, we had 0 ability to finish and get Bortles down despite him being complete dog shyt the entire game. Jerry Hughes is washed, Zo is a situational rusher who's being asked to do too much, Shaq Lawson is just a complete and utter bust and waste of a pick at this point (I love Whaley but the man couldn't draft in the first round at all). This team has 0 speed on the outside edge and 0 ability to create pressure that leads to sacks. And it's directly the cause the rest of the defense struggled because the secondary is pretty damn good and the linebackers are slow as sin but they are all sure tacklers. They're just all asked to do things they can't do aside from the secondary. We need to cut ties with Hughes and basically completely start over at that position.

Second is getting a QB, I love Tyrod but it's time to overhaul this offense, if we plan to take a Lamar Jackson late in the 1st that's one thing and then I'm all on board building around Tyrod/Him, but I'd target Kirk Cousins and basically make him tell me no. I'm giving Teddy a real real hard look as well, he's still a special talent IMO he can shine if given the opportunity and talent.

I'd bring back Matthews on a 2 year prove it deal kind of thing, but my main target would be John Brown from Zona, kid can burn and I love his game, he can be a #1 here with good coaching (get Dennison and his bum ass out) and the right QB. Health is a concern but what wideout isn't it a concern for at this point?

We're gonna have about $50M to play with in free agency, we can make a splash move then shore up depth and finish this build through the draft, we are in dire need of depth at linebacker and OT especially with Glenn looking washed and that racist bully on the way out. So that's what my draft would focus on, shoring up the trenches and the back 7 on defense.

I’ll pass on re-signing Matthews, he was average and wasn’t missed when he went on IR.

I would after a placeholder like McCarron, Bridgewater, or McCown and draft a QB in 2nd or 3rd round. Peterman is and should be 3rd QB on this roster if Tyrod is gone.

The 21st and 22nd picks need to be used on BPA whether that’s two D-Linemen, a LB, WR, or O-Line that has to be the case. Can’t waste 1st on a project QB.

 

[MikelArteta]

Bills haven't signed a big fa since Mario Williams

Buffalo is still a last resort for most players

Why would cousins sign in buffalo when he could possibly get Miami, Arizona, Denver

I don't think Hughes is washed. He graded well most of the season in getting pressure. I think his lack of production is on the lack of push inside by the DTs. Makes it a lot easier for QBs to step up in the pocket

 

[K-Apps]

fukk all those QBs in the draft, after watching the CFB NC game I’ll wait till Tua kid in 2020.

I appreciate Tyrod but it's time to look elsewhere in my opinion. Dennison can go too.

qb options- i think they go after alex smith or bridgewater if he's healthy. also maybe draft a qb not in the first round but later rounds. i think somebody like lamar jackson but i know they won't cause they will feel like its the same thing they had with tyrod. i think they just need a steady qb with low turnovers but who will make the throws when they need them or get the yards however.

i do think dennison should go, he just don't got a good feel of calling plays.

i went to the game and the fan support was unbelievable. bills fans really showed up had to be 25k or more seriously. everywhere you went it was fans. even moreso than jags fans. i liked tyrod but i just can't justify him not pulling the trigger or throws he missed in key situations like that o'leary or that bad fade pass to benjamin which drew him a penalty. it's best for change on both sides cause the bills been dikking him around for 2 years- just move on- i think he would be good in denver.

i think they need offensive lineman and defensive linemen. also think preston brown and humber can go cause they not that good in coverage or don't have enough speed to be good. add another receiver too. an experienced reliable handed speed guy to work with benjamin.

but knowing them, they probably will try to get everything in the draft being cheap.

blake bortles played the kinda game tyrod should have. when nobody is open get them easy yards and stop waiting. dennison should go strictly cause he always calling them long developing routes when the team is not a good pass blocking team. i'm gonna stop cause there's so much i can go in on. i'm proud that they ended the streak so just try to improve in increments not a big crazy turnover of players.

i figured it would low scoring defensive game and whoever made plays late would win and jags did just that. the jags fans wasn't really hype after the game they was just like it's another day. i know the bills fans and the people i was with would have went crazy.

the tailgate was amazing. man they really be overdoing it that jumping through the table but it's funny. basically was all white dudes doing it

I'm picking Lamar Jackson with one of the 1st picks and hoping they develop an offense similar to Watson in Houston or Wentz in Philly. Lamar can be a solid QB especially if they get a deep threat to compliment Jones and Benjamin.

You think he'll fall to us or we'd have to trade up? I honestly haven't watched enough of any of these QBs to really have a favorite

Daboll although just college was killing it with hurts

@RammerJammer what do you think of daboll

He's alright but he had his tendencies like running the QB way too much. Had the #1 offense in the SEC though, you give him a good QB and a strong running game and he can definitely be successful.

Depends how he does in the Combine and Pro Day, I think we will have to move up a bit imo. He’s the best athlete and has a good arm. Rudolph has typical Big 12 bust written all over him.
