Tyreke Hill vs. Ja'Marr Chase vs Justin Jefferson - Contract management
papazoid replied to Chaos's topic in The Stadium Wall
#1- KC didnt win this SB because they got rid of Tyreek hill. they would have won it with him. Besides, he's not their #1 target, kelce is. Tyreek cap hit with miami for 2022 was $6.5 mil and will be $12.8 for 2024 both bargains. long term starting in 2025 is another story. the other KC WR's shuster & scantling were mediocre. what KC shows is the value of investing in the Oline & TE. #2- Minny should absolutely pay top $ for jeffereson no matter who the QB is. he is elite top 5. i'd tag him. #3- cincy has an interesting dilema. they have 3 really good WR's. you probably can only afford to keep 2. i'd let whoever demands the most $ go/trade if possible. again, 5th year option then tag. the goal of the draft should be instant starter and pro bowl talent. worry about the second contract later. -
Will DeAndre Hopkins be available this offseason?

party pooper oh....von miller says hello back to visions of sugar plums -
BPA is and should be a big thing before the draft , you should have a big board, rated strictly for talent from 1-300. you've had months to prepare it, on draft day there should be zero discussions on the order based on talent. before the draft, you should prepare for various scenarios of who you would pick at #27 & #59, etc........whether trading up, down or staying put based on talent AND need is the best way to go. hundreds of scenarios pre rehearsed. LUCK is when PREPARATION meets OPPURTUNITY

i'm a big fan of Dhop.......he's a legit superstar WR still at his age....getting him for $10mil/yr or less would be a steal and would have big impact on team. hard to showcase shiny new toy WR's when josh is running for his life or flat on his back. WR#2 targets 5-10 per game ?? OL blocks 60 plays per game KC invests heavily in OL and has a revolving door at WR. Bills invests heavily in DL and looks for scrap heap value on OL. Protect josh or we will never be a super bowl winning team....just a wannabe Top 5 or so -
BPA at either WR or TE....but i hope its TE. TE Rankings #1 - Kelce KC #2 - Kittle SF #4 - Goedert Phi #23 - Knox Buf notice a trend ?....3 of the final 4 teams who played in Conference Championship games have a Top TE TE is the biggest/hardest mismatch in coverage TE is by far the weakest position group on Bills. the only group Beane hasn't added to this offseason.

not an easy decision for beane do you want to spend $6-8mil/yr or more on dhop or 1 really good player or sign 3-4 veteran free agents at $2/mil each.... -
FA Cameron Fleming RT Why don't we go get him?
papazoid replied to PrimeTime101's topic in The Stadium Wall
he'd make a good swing tackle...had starts at both sides last year about as good as dawkins and way better than quisenberry and brown. if at $1.9 mil .....a no brainer -

papazoid replied to NeverOutNick's topic in The Stadium Wall
maybe dhop and his agent are helping to force his way out by refusing to renegotiate his contract with any team interested in trading for him and spreading these stories ? if a free agent....that could favor kc a little as they are likely to pay more than bills and he would immediately be their #1 WR......in buff he'd be #2WR -
bills never met with 1st round pick Elam but did meet with 2nd round pick Cook (could be intentional strategy) https://www.buffalorumblings.com/2022/4/25/23026785/2022-nfl-draft-buffalo-bills-pre-draft-meeting-tracker-top-30-visits

are you kidding me....look how KC values Oline compared to Bills 3 legit All Pro's best in league // not the 10th alternate bullchit to pro bowl like bills you put that in front of Josh Allen and he would be the undisputed best QB in league TE - Travis Kelce (#1) All Pro // Knox #20 LT - Orlando Brown Jr (#10) 4x Pro Bowl // we have dawkins (#24) alternate LG - Joe Thuney (#2 ) All Pro // we dont have a guard in the top 40 C - Creed Humphrey (#1) All Pro // morse #23 alternate RG - Trey Smith (#12) // we dont have a guard in the top 40 RT - Andrew Wylie (nothing special and they let him go) // we have Spencer Brown ranked #73 -

i doubt all 5 of those OT's are gone by #27, but its certainly possible. if i'm hell bent on filling a need at OT and #35 is all thats left, then im trying to trade down, pick up draft capital or more realistically....i'm staying at #27, taking BPA and filling my 2nd or 3rd need...could be WR, TE.....or even a LB or RB if that Bijon falls theres just too many possibilities to cover them all.......i'm just doing everything possible to not reach to fill a need based on my board.

i'll go defense #1 for 2021 but not 2022......agree totally on leslie frazier....he played soft and predictable vs kc 13 seconds. last year was more to do with injury / health vs cincy. daquan jones, von miller and hyde were out completely. poyer and tre white were not at 100%.....thats half the team right there. compared to the offense, our defense is loaded with talent.
-
my answer would be.....you stay true to your board......you put the scouting work in before the draft and rank the players from 1 to 300.....the day of the draft comes and its pretty simple....you take BPA or get cute and try to trade down a little...or go up and get the guy who is BPA and fills your #1 need.....you do not reach more than 1 or 2 spots to fill a need. lets take this hypothetical big board that the bills brain trust could put together: #8- peter skoronski OT #19- paris johnson OT #20- darnell wright OT #24- anton harrison OT #26- broderick jones OT #35 - dawand jones OT so, at #27 i have no trouble taking any of those OT's except #35.......obviously i have no idea who else might be avail at #27 right now today, Oline is the weak link on this team and needs to be fixed. if you start forecasting our needs for 2024, then you can justify using a 1st round pick on every position group except QB

the #1 reason we got bounced from playoffs is our O-line is below average phi & kc have the best Olines in the league it don't matter how many Dhop weapons we add or if we get a new LB significantly improve the Oline or its another wasted year of josh -
started simple enough......i was in an even row, in the lower bowl......my knees kept hitting the cup holders....so i had them removed. then i noticed the guy in the row directly in front of me had plenty of knee room, even with his cup holder......so during half time when he left, i sat in his seats, my knees dont hit his cup holder......i'm like what is going on.......so i started sitting in every row i could and it wasnt hard to see the pattern. theres like a 3-5 inch difference between odd and even rows. i've told the bills numerous times during seat relocation, because i insist on odd rows only and they keep saying they dont know anything about that. i guess its fixable by shiming to split the difference but cost prohibitive and now that a new stadium is coming, forget about it.

"intention"...lots of wiggle room there. first of all its in his best interest to recover while an nfl player under their medical plan. he may or may not already know the risks and likelihood of playing again, but no reason to make any announcements now. who knows, he may or may not get doctors approval after his recovery is complete to play again. who knows, even if he gets doctors approval for full nfl contact, he may or may not want to except the risk of playing and have this happen again at this point, its all about completing rehab and further evaluations ...i have yet to hear him say they have ruled out any and all pre-existing conditions and his heart is 100% strong and normal. that the chances of this happening again to him, is no greater than the rest of the players in the league just my opinion, i have the impression, he will never play football again. his calling in life will be his foundation to help kids. but, anything is possible having said that, if he gets medically cleared and he wants to give it a go...god bless him
