Oh, didn’t see the Brate extension. Well that means that Howard could be available. I wasn’t thinking both would, just that one likely would be out of Brate or Howard. I figured it would be Howard
-
Obvious one would be Ertz trade. But also think one of Howard or Brate will become available out of TB and Njoku also is probably available. Veterans like Rudolph, Cook, or even Reed wouldn’t be bad adds as well, especially to at least help further develop Knox. Or just look at the draft too See above answer

Bummer, that’s a great deal, wish we nabbed him. But still plenty of other TE options still via FA, trade, or draft

Pegula's jet flight activity Chicago?
Alphadawg7 replied to Mcg's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Has the flight path of Pegulas jet ever once predicted a big signing or trade from someone related to where it went? I can’t think of one, but I can think of a hundred threads like this. -
When an attorney feels compelled to tell you it’s not about money...it’s because it’s usually definitely about money.

Tyrod > Barkley Just saying. -
Pats apparently in on Fournette and Carson
Alphadawg7 replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Haha also true -
Pats apparently in on Fournette and Carson
Alphadawg7 replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don’t think it’s that they are after signing both to the roster, more that they are after a RB and are eyeing one of these two. Haha then again I didn’t think they would spend $25m a year in two TEs who combined average leas than a 1000 yards together. I figured they would keep Burkhead and let White leave. -
Bills FA Strategy - Bargain Hunting
Alphadawg7 replied to Weatherman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well you should listen to Beane more, he’s been spot on every year on his plans. -

Alphadawg7 replied to Weatherman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah, and Beane said he wanted him back, but it was Milano who wanted to test the market. Beane was always interested in resigning him, and I think you are correct that Milano wasn’t seeing that much more in FA, so he chose to stay here and came to terms in the range Beane was comfortable with. I mean it’s no secret the guys here now love this team and staff, so if Milano wasn’t gonna make much more there wasn’t an incentive to leave. -

Why are we confusing trades with free agency? Not the same thing at all. In fee agency, Beane did exactly what he said he would do last year -
I don’t think there is anything wrong with your opinion, and mostly agree with it too. But there are not a lot of guys who fit that description, and for me, my higher priority is the TE being a weapon given Dabolls system. Im not sure I follow that he’s a tweener though, he’s not small. He doesn’t have say the weight of a good blocking TE, but we wouldn’t be signing him to for that role.

Alphadawg7 replied to nato7412's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What!? Is this a serious question? Why on earth would be give up a 2nd for Tonyan? -

Alphadawg7 replied to Weatherman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yet Beane does exactly what he says year after year. So, not believing him would be proven incorrect many times over at this point. So you can choose to not believe him, but it’s just making you incorrect in your expectations. -
Good luck covering Everett with a small DB. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not willing to over pay Everett. I’d be cool with $8M, but I don’t really want to hit double digits just because of cap reasons. But, if you want a TE to block, you don’t have to put both Knox and Everett out there. You can sign a TE who is more of a pass blocker for those situations, they are cheap. But releasing both Knox and Everett on the play would be tough to defend.

Bunch of stories on Twitter saying they are showing interest in both Fournette and Carson. That would be a bit of a surprise to me as I thought they really liked Damien Harris and still have Michel and Burkhead.

Bills FA Strategy - Bargain Hunting
Alphadawg7 replied to Weatherman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Im just saying this was all stated by Beane long before FA. Wasn’t more a point just at the OP, more a general comment to everyone who seem to still be in denial or shock we haven’t done anything. -

Alphadawg7 replied to Weatherman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
How is this just now becoming obvious when it’s verbatim to what Beane said since the season ended? His focus was on retaining our own and there wouldn’t be any real big splashy FA expenditures. -
Patriots add "stud" WR Kenny Bourne [edited title]
Alphadawg7 replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well if he’s a decent #2, that would means he’s a very good #4 which is exactly what he would have been here. And also why he wasn’t going to come here. -
Fun facts: Pats just made two TE’s the third highest paid TE’s in the NFL (they both got $12.5 per season for 4 and 3 years) that respectively average 350 yards a season and 580 yards a season. That is $25m a year to them for averaging less than 1000 yards a season combined. Jonnu has never even reached 500 yards, and Hunter never reached 700 yards despite playing with much better QBs than NE has. I mean that is crazy amount of money for them IMO. These guys are not in the same class as Gronk and Hernandez combo was.
