I don’t get it. Why does it have to be either/or? We knew the Bills were in on Adams too. Everything doesn’t have to be about simply blocking the Chiefs. They’re trying to upgrade their receiver room because it hasn’t quite come together like they would’ve hoped.
Not sure why this is desperation. It’s a team trying to take the next step. [Reply]

I like this pick if Buffalo thinks this is what they need in order to win it all.
I think it helps. Cooper/Coleman/Samuel/Shakir is not a bad WR corps, with or without MVS.
I think the 3rd round pick (plus a 6th) for Kadarius Toney would make it look like we lost the trade in a vacuum. But the truth is, he helped push us over the top in the Super Bowl in 2022.
The Bills may view this similarly. I kinda do too -- I think the Ravens and the Chiefs are the class of the AFC right now but Buffalo is about a half rung below. [Reply]

Right??? If Veach knew how to run a damn franchise I bet we’d have won 3 of the last 5 SBs or something crazy like that. Instead he just sits in his office eating cheese curds while watching our rivals get all the good players. [Reply]

Buffalo would lose in the playoffs to Baltimore, Cincinnati, and Houston...in addition to the Chiefs.
Best they do is lose in the divisional again. [Reply]
