When I used the word "gutted", if I did, it is in the context of a longer term neglect.

Without adding in the money freed up by not spending on Burns, without counting sending DJ Moore off for offense (? made no sense), traded Dante Jackson for offense, all that stuff... just looking at three years of draft picks plus one still to be paid 2nd round for 2025, I am putting the tally below. 

What is very glaring is that in the last three years the highest draft pick used on defense is #70 of 2022 which was traded for a defensive player (CJ Henderson). After that, you have #72 for Wallace, #76 and #80 which went for another defensive player (Gilmore) and a defensive draft pick (DJ Johnson).

THAT IS IT IN 3 YEARS.

#70, #72, #76, #80 Big whoop. Wait and add up everything that went offense draft wise. It is no wonder why the defense is hurting.

2022

#6 Icky

#38 Darnold

#70 CJ Henderson

2023

#9 Bryce Young

#39 Mingo

#61 Bryce Young

#76 S Gilmore

#80 DJ Johnson

2024

#1 Bryce Young

#32 X Legette

#46 Brooks

#72 Wallace

#101 Sanders

2025

#1? 

#33 Bryce Young

Those defensive picks add up to 254 points or something on the trade value chart. May run out of edit time trying to add the totals for those offensive picks, but it will be WELL over 10 times that when all is calculated. 

It wasn’t directed at you. I’m talking about the people acting like it happened over the offseason just to fix the OL. You have been spot on.

Thanks. I wasn't taking it like that I just wanted to clarify and to get that list in play so people can see exactly what the scoop is and why things have regressed so bad over there on that side. 

It is a stark contrast. 

The only way I can even accept it is if this was a two year plan and the defense is coming but I still didn't like it. Too much imbalance.

      Greg Cosell: Bryce Young is a complimentary piece

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      As far as elite/elevate talent QB’s It’s Allen Mahomes Jackson and Burrow that’s it.  Then we have tiers and those can be debated all day Dak is a good QB but I know this board would want him out of Charlotte if he was the QB here. 2 playoff wins in 10 years. Justin Herbert no playoff wins. Threw 4 interceptions in last years playoff game. 23 TD passes last year. 20 the year below and 25 the year before that. This board loves stats without context and these stats aren’t saying they’re much above complimentary  Kyler Murray isn’t good. I’m not sure how he made this list.  Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence both benefiting from some real good offensive coaches right now. They’re both complimentary pieces until proven otherwise  I like Jordan Love. Always have. I wanted to draft him but he isn’t a superstar.  CJ Stroud hasn’t been much better than Bryce after his rookie season. After that Bears game year 2 his numbers very similar to Bryce I will say I think Drake Maye is well on his way to becoming the next top tier QB if I had to pick one from this entire list. I’d also say Baker Mayfield is a damn good QB and I’d take him over most of those guys not in the elite category  Now if you want to debate tools and which QB’s possess tools to put them in higher tiers that’s a completely different discussion. Most QB’s on your main list all have those physical tools that will keep you thinking he’ll become the next top tier QB. They’ll sprinkle in a “wow” play or two a game. Bryce will never look that way. Young’s game at its peak will physically always look different and I think that’s where most people struggle when it comes to seeing how Young’s can be successful in the league  All QB’s need a team around them. I think the Bills are failing Josh Allen much like the Panthers did Cam. Beane and McDermott using same blueprint with Bills team. Josh Allen hasn’t had much in terms of WR’s and it’s ultimately costing them when it matters the most
