It's pretty clear from last year's free agency that we have mixed results. The big singings of Triplett, Royal are OK. The best signing might be retaining Denny and got K. Thomas. Reed is OK. Price is a disappointment.
I'm going to guess that this year's FA will more or less to mirror the result of last year's overall. But if you look at Bills from the managing viewpoint, you have to be happy that the team has a direction and focus, and for once, they stick to it.
they will mainly build through the draft. They will give out big money to young players who have proved themselves to belong in NFL and whom they believe have their best days ahead of them.
Last year, whether they openly said it or not, was about finding out whether the team has a QB. They stayed true to that.
This year, they want to address run and stop the run as Marv said it clearly several times. And they put their attention and money on offensive line - a sore weakness of this team for years.
I fully expect they focus on D-line and linebackers the rest of the way because that's where you stop the run.
You have to point to the one at the helm for this kind of focus and consistent approach of the team. I tip my hat to Marv Levy. He is old. He may not be the choice of coach that I like, but he surely knows how to manage/run a football team from the football side with the best of them.
