Ann Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 Gonna look at every position, but specified this: Gonna start with the pass rush on the defense. Look at who is leaving, who needs to be replaced. Offensively will look at the o-line. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 Ryan Bates priority to come back? We traded for him in the middle of training camp. He had never played center. We asked him to play center, and he went and he became a five play guy. Sure proud of how he came in for Ike. Dion played some of his football with Bates next to him. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 Jerry Hughes: He intimated that he would like to continue his career. We will look at it on our end. He sounds like he wants to continue. We will have to look at the pieces, the money, and go from there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 Gonna fill in the gaps. Names that it will a little more on some people's plates. He'll look to any changes after the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 Emmanuel Sanders: Loves what he brought to the team. He brought the veteran experience we were looking for. He the knee injury... I don't know what his plan is next. He hinted it might be his last year. Have not had a sit down. If he wants to come back, I will listen and we'd have to work the numbers out.

Ann Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 Asked about overseas game possibility. He would have expected he would have heard something already, especially if it would have been a home game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grow them through the draft/ process. When I see how some of our 2nd, 3rd, and 4th year players have progressed / performed. We may already have most of the answers on the current roster IMO. Fine tune it... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been wondering how badly they want Wallace back ever since they signed Taron Johnson to a 3yr,$24m contract in September. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJ Watt wouldn't have let Mahomes do what he did to us. Nick or Joey Bosa wouldn't have let him escape every single play nor would the holding have worked on these guys. Not only do they get you the sack, they bring you back the ball. And in TJ Watts' case possibly one of Mahomes' balls as well.

There's a ton that happens on the field that I don't see, but what I did see is our OL being far better once Bates was put in later in the year. I assume they'll make him an offer and we'll see if they get outbid. And as for Hughes, thanks but we need to move on. He's not a game changer and is no longer disruptive enough to make up for his lack size. I'd rather see snaps go to the young (and cheap) guys. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I agree. He is a shell of himself. Still has the heart but doesn't have the body anymore. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the worst I've ever reacted at a draft pick. Worse than both EJ and Whitner over Ngata.

A terrible choice, and definitely high up on the list of draft picks which deeply displeased me. But for me personally the worst were Losman and Manuel. When each of those picks was made, my response was that the Bills would not win the Super Bowl until both the draft pick and the front office which had made the pick had been replaced. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct on Whitner (I went back and edited the post because AW was one of my favorite players). Losman was setup to fail, like most QBs drafted by bad franchises. Manuel was never any good and his ceiling was the basement floor. He was a very nice human being, however. The worst part about Losman is he cost us a shot at Rogers.

Losman was setup to fail, like most QBs drafted by bad franchises. Manuel was never any good and his ceiling was the basement floor. He was a very nice human being, however. The worst part about Losman is he cost us a shot at Rogers. Antoine Winfield was a true #1 CB. The kind of guy you could put on an island against the other team’s best WR, and be okay. It’s unfortunate that Tom Donahoe chose to break off contract extension talks with Winfield, so he could use the cap space on an overrated player like SS Lawyer Milloy instead. Losman had all the physical tools in the world, but didn’t have the accuracy or information processing ability necessary. Too often he’d throw balls at guys’ feet or sail them over their heads. He played behind a bad offensive line, and that certainly didn’t help him any. Not only did Losman cost us Rodgers, he might also have cost us Roethlisberger. Tom Donahoe had looked into trading up for Roethlisberger. But, he decided Houston’s asking price was too high. So he stayed put and took WR Lee Evans 13th overall, then traded back into the first for Losman. Had Donahoe realized Losman would be a bust, he would have been more likely to accept Houston’s asking price. That said I’d obviously rather have Rodgers than Roethlisberger.
