April 28, 2025<\/a> <\/p>\nBeane certainly made the right call in 2018 with drafting Allen over Rosen \u2014 and he thinks he\u2019s done the same with his decisions this year to target defensive players heavily and not take a receiver until the final round.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t get it. We just scored 30 points in a row for eight straight games,\u201d Beane went on with his rant. \u201cA year ago, I get you guys asking why we didn\u2019t have receivers, but I don\u2019t understand it now.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou just saw us lead the league in points, when you add all the postseason, no one scored more points than the Buffalo Bills, including the Super Bowl champions. You just saw us do it without Stefon Diggs, same group, how is this group not better than last year\u2019s group?\u201d<\/p>\n
The Bills wide receiver corps was set and solid for years with Diggs leading the way, but had loads of question marks going into last season with Khalil Shakir and 2024 second-round pick Keon Coleman headlining the group.<\/p>\n

But with no real star No. 1 wide receiver, Buffalo\u2019s offense fared just fine \u2014 Josh Allen won MVP and the offense was amongst the top in the league.<\/p>\n
While Beane had his own feelings about what White and DiBiase had to say, the show\u2019s hosts don\u2019t want listeners to get things twisted<\/a>.<\/p>\n\u201cDon\u2019t let it be the lie that we spent the day railing the Bills GM for not taking a receiver,\u201d White said. \u201cThat\u2019s not what happened today. We talked about building their defense, the front seven \u2026 I thought they would\u2019ve gone receiver earlier \u2026 [Beane] heard us bring that up and got mad about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the Bills may not have the big names at wide receiver, Beane is happy with the offense\u2019s production \u2014 hence why he went in a different direction in the draft.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur job is to score points and win games. Where do we need to get better? Defense. We did that,\u201d Beane said. \u201cI get it, you gotta have a show and you gotta have something to b\u2013ch about, but b\u2013ching about wide receiver is one of the dumbest arguments I\u2019ve heard.\u201d<\/p>\n
