  1. I have no doubt Beane will take what he feels is this BPA, but people also have to keep in mind that BPA has some need baked into it. And Beane has said in the past where the draft is deep at in terms of position can play a factor in close decisions. But I have nothing against taking a WR in the first either. Just think if the right CB or DT is there, they may be higher on his board.
  2. I think Jameson Williams could be the pick at 25, if he lasts to that. But I also think its more likely we go DT or CB in the first if there is a guy they covet there with how deep WR is in this draft.
  3. I will take your word for it since it doesn't seem far fetched to me really. And I dont really see the point to pile on you over it either like others are. And mainly because I met Levi Wallace's 4 college best friends at the home opener as we sat next to them and we hit it off and still keep in touch on instagram. And they have said multiple times to me that Levi loves Buffalo and that he absolutely wants to stay in Buffalo. Of course, that doesn't mean he will, just means that is what he prefers, I am sure it still depends on what McD and Beane want, would offer, and what other teams offer...but heading into the offseason they said he wants to stay. And I have no reason to doubt them. So your story doesn't seem far fetched to me as its not unusual for friends of players to boast they are friends of players. Happens all the time, not sure why so many think this is such a crazy concept. Not saying this is true or not...but I am sure he has a Buffalo best friend, he has been there a while. This assumption he can only have a best friend elsewhere is a silly assumption.
  4. Im not against drafting him, but I don't know why people think he will suddenly do this to one of the best and most athletic QB's in the NFL like Mahomes when he didn't do this in college. He seems to be more of a Star replacement as a space eater and run stuffer than someone who is gonna get at the QB. Running fast and playing fast are not the same thing, makes me wonder why that speed isn't reflected more in his college production and resume.
  5. This is just someone who knows it will get clicks and throws out his own speculation. OBD is a tight lipped ship, I seriously doubt there is any real insider leaking this knowledge of a splash move. Is it possible...sure, but just saying I doubt there is anything of real substance to this alleged rumor.
  6. In a division with top end QBs of Mahomes and Herbert, do they really want to commit to a mid tier QB is their dilemma. Personally I think Carr is good enough to keep, but only up to a certain price. He can’t carry a lesser team, so you need more cap flexibility to improve rest of roster more if you’re gonna commit to him and want to compete to win division. I suspect he’s gonna get over paid though either by them or other teams.
  7. They never should have even if they wouldn’t have gotten Lamb. That contract was grossly too big for him. Terrible contract from the moment he signed it IMHO
  8. Agreed…People under estimate his value here.
  9. It was Cole’s team that requested permission to seek a trade according to reports on Twitter.
  10. I’m not surprised, even though I prefer he stay. We need to free some cap space up somewhere. I still think it’s plausible he winds up with the Giants given he comes off the books next year and he knows Dabolls offense and can be a safety bal let for whoever plays QB for them this year.
  11. Beast. Next season can’t get here fast enough.
  12. Id be interested considering it would likely take very little to acquire him. I liked him coming out of college and Kirk has played a lot of slot for AZ, so thats contributed too in his lack of touches.
  13. Yes. But depends on price, we got a lot of other holes and TE isn't one of them.
  14. Well, you do realize there is a massive difference in rushing in a Daniel Jones led offense with the worst OL in football and running in a top 3 offense led by Josh Allen right? This is not an equal comparison. For example: Priest Holmes was a meh back for the Ravens, but he became other worldly the second he stepped onto the field as a Kansas City Chief. So no disrespect bud, but this isn't a good argument here just because it's not remotely close to equal situations for both running backs.
  15. Fitz is an awesome dude, but I want no part of this. I don’t think he has much left in the tank.
  16. I dont disagree to limit your risk exposure. I think Moss and a 5th...or if they have cap concerns, do Beasley and a 5th because then the contracts almost cancel each other out in terms of the cap hit.
  17. A torn ACL isn't somethig guys commonly come back to 100% in their first year back. Often its not until the next season do they start to regain their full form again. I wouldn't write Barkley off yet.
  18. I started a thread on this a month ago and proposed sending Moss and a pick so the pick wouldn't have to be as high. We have some players that I believe Giants could have interest in like Moss or Singletary, for obvious reasons where one of them can be looked on as a guy who can come over and compete to start in his place. Or even Cole Beasley, also on a one year deal so he is off the books next year but gives them a value piece to help Daniel Jones (or whoever starts this year) in Dabolls system that can be an underneath safety blanket and 3rd down ace who knows the system already. And if we trade Cole, then the salaries almost wash each other out too, so makes it easier to take on Barkleys salary this year. Or of course Beane could try and work a new deal ahead of the trade, a short term one thats good for Barkley to try and reset his market in a better situation and gives us a talent at a price we can afford as Josh's deal starts to kick in next year. I thought then, and still do now, that Barkely to the Bills is a realistic scenario.
  19. Even further, he somehow managed to throw multiple picks in a half speed no contact Pro Bowl as his playoff encore in terms of recent bias. LMAO how anyone threw multiple picks in that fake game is beyond me.
  20. Nothing wrong with wanting to get paid, its how he is going about getting that accomplished is the issue. Remember he wiped all references and photos of the Cardinals from his social media recently too before all this began. He is the one that decided to make his unhappiness public, and there was nothing to be unhappy with yet. They had not submitted a contract extension yet (that was just sent in week and a half ago) and they had not had any counters yet from the FO, even as of now. Yet, he preemptively decides to make this standoff public with his social media cleanse of everything Cardinals. Now he is further pressuring and negotiating on social media? Absolute worst thing he could have done IMHO.
  21. Actually, the real reason why is because Kyler started all of this himself by scrubbing all references to the Cardinals from his social media out of nowhere long before that. Had he not done that, which immediately made everything he was about to do public, then no one would be clamoring for any info on Kyler, his status with the team etc. But because he did that, its been non stop speculation and people trying to get info on what's going on putting him and his agent under pressure to make an official statement of some sorts to clear up the unknown after those actions. And the Cardinals didn't immediately jump all over a response, they decide to begin negotiating further in the media through their statement to clarify what is going on. Which was a total mistake. Now the Cardinals went from weighing doing the extension this year to deciding if they are going to publicly cave to this Kanye West level diva tactics in the media setting a bad look and precedence for the team. The lack of patience and respect they have for the Cardinals given its only his 3rd year is astounding.
  22. What there is nothing wrong with is him and his team desiring to get a long term contract done now. What there is something totally wrong with all of this is being an entitled diva and without warning scrubbing all references to the team you are under contract with still from your social media accounts causing distractions for the team and then publicly submitting a total LAMP letter to the public that gives off the douche level of something Antonio Brown would do demanding to be paid now. So yeah, nothing wrong with him wanting the contract now, but how he is going about trying to get it is absolutely stupid and another red flag. And I promise you it won’t sit well with a lot of people in his locker room. And this is after there is already a bunch of negative buzz of how poorly he handled the playoff loss as well. The QB position is the leader out on the field, the guy who gets more credit or blame each week than they usually deserve, and has the biggest spotlight on them. It’s one thing if a WR like AB takes his baggage to social media, it’s a whole other thing when the face and leader of your team decides to do all this in the public eye. Kyler and his team made a big mistake with this, and he is getting torched everywhere because of it.
  23. Hahahaha I thought the same thing. I feel like Kyler and Mariah Carey have the same team behind the scenes. I wouldn’t be surprised if in Kylers contract demands he wants only red M&Ms in a bowl in his locker every morning.
  24. All I’m gonna say is thank god we got Josh Allen. Can’t believe that they put this Diva statement out lmao.
  25. We don’t have a desperate need. 5th in pressures, 10th in sacks. We aren’t desperate by any means. Would he be an upgrade, sure…just saying people who keep saying we are desperate are grossly over exaggerating the situation.
