    Offseason thoughts now that i know whos in FA

    This will be my last offseason thread, now that we know whats going on with FA and whos going to be available


    Resign

    Kirk Morrison OLB- I still like the guy and i really wouldnt be upset with him starting at LB. I say lock him up for a year

    Bryan Scott OLB/S- Always loved Scott. He means alot to our team. Hes our new Coy Wire and i always liked him

    Kraig Urbik G- One of the biggest pieces to our good OL from last year. Lock him up!


    Needs in order- 2 DE, WR, OT, 2 CBs, and young late round QB

    Free Agents

    Jeremy Shockey TE- Has a big swaggar, and can do everything Chandler did for us last year, and more

    Carlos Rogers CB- Not a major flashy pick up. But hes solid and good cheap value

    Rocky Mcintosh OLB- Horrible fit in the 3-4. With our new 4-3 defense i think he would do very well here.

    Jared Gaither OT- Im surprised SD never resigned him. Im not quite sure how available he is or whether SD is takin there time with him, but i would love him here and i think hell get over looked with so many other positions with value

    Andre Carter DE/OLB- Great season last year untill his injury. Hes a good 4-3 DE and can be a situational pass rusher


    Draft

    1st- Malcom Floyd WR- Every day i believe more and more that Floyd will be the pick. Something about him makes me think Bills. I think he would be the perfect compliment to Stevie
    2nd- Chandler Jones DE- I love his height and arm length. After watching him, he is soooo much more impressive than Branch.
    3rd- Cam Johnson DE- My favorite player in the draft. I think hes the best right now passrusher in the draft. He uses his hands like a pro.
    4th- Brock Osweller QB- Tall strong armed QB who would be a good backup for our team


    Draft Needs- 2 DEs, 1 WR, 1 CB

    How is OLB not a massive need?

    Even if they did sign McIntosh who isn't much more than mediocre and bring back Morrison, who has been an MLB for as long as I know, there would still be a massive need. All they really have is Barnett.

      Because you can make do with an average OLB. You cant make do with no passrush, bad CBs, no OT, and no 2nd WR. As long as you can get a veteran OLB who can tackle, your fine. Morrison and McIntosh both fit that

        For the record, Lee Smith is our #1 Tight End right now... Just saying.

            I would prefer a Martellus Bennett or even bringing back Chandler. BUT, if Shockey has 2 years left in him I wouldn't be averse to it. This team is thriving off of youth or at least trying to, but some veteran hands would be fantastic.

              I think we will see alot of vets this year and next year when our rookies are good to be on there own the vets will be gone.

                Maybe in Madden..

                I'd throw something at the TV if we drafted a WR at #10, passing on a starting LT or DE/OLB. Insane.

                    No OT will be worth it unless Kalil falls to us. There in my opinion are no DEs worthy in the 1st and Nix said there are better options in round 2 and 3. Floyd will make an immediate impact for our team and will help Fitz alot.

                      Rogers is pretty good, although a little older than others...I don't think he'll come real cheap.

                        There are alot of younger and better CBs so he wont get much. Its also a good CB class in the draft

                          Sunday is a long ways away. The Bills better be active on the first day for once in ten years.

                            Like your enthusiasm, but, I'm pretty happy about this.

                              I'd rather have a good team than just "make do"

                              Even if they did sign the two, where is the depth?

                              This team literally currently has one OLB.
