Got to love ESPN Beat reporters... For the BILLS vs FISH, Rodak Picks them, and Walker picks us....so their beat reporter likes our chances, our beat reporter likes their chances. Even more of a hack job..

I love it...Rex using "not acting as a rogue guy" to the press when talking about Whaley!!

Hmm..wonder who's locker is to the right and left...cause they both appear to look just as EMPTY.. Or do our Buffalo News Reporters have relatives that report for the Titans the same way they do our Bills

Dukey, If you scroll a little further down that page it discusses the Fumbles in more detail. Said he had 5 Fumbles, but recovered 4 of them for a net of 1 Fumble Lost.

well..never mind...it was the Substance Abuse policy..straight from his mouth: "Last year, I made a mistake involving possession of a banned substance," Dareus said in a statement. "The NFL's discipline for this conduct is part of the drug policy, and I apologize to my family, my teammates, the entire Bills organization and Bills fans that I will miss one game as a result of my mistake. I will work intensely that week and will be extremely happy to contribute to a win in week two for the Bills." http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000493823/article/marcell-dareus-suspended-for-first-game-of-15-season

I agree, this wasnt a substance abuse issue as it was a direct correlation to his being arrested for possession. Not for testing positive. So basically the question is, does "Personal Conduct Policy" explicitly state that you could be suspended for being arrested, but not prosecuted/found guilty (since they pleaded out). And if so, does it properly document this type of incident as a suspend able offense.

I know they extended the contract, just curious if Fox and CBS goes down this road how much of an impact will it have on DirecTV's clientele? I know I personally keep DirecTV over FIOS only for the ability to get Sunday Ticket (for free or reduced costs that is)

http://techcrunch.com/2015/09/02/cbs-to-live-stream-select-regular-season-nfl-games-including-for-the-first-time-the-thanksgiving-day-game/#.2kst6s:V4lY Saw this on Fox News and searched for links to it. Looks like they are starting to stream for "FREE" 2 regular season games this year. Does this mean they may look to do more and more of this in the future? How would this affect the NFL's deal with DirecTV? Who would honestly pay 300$ to have it on their TV, when they could stream it to their TV for free? (Well those who are crazy enough to still pay full price that is..)

Wait, so that is how Adam Schefter always seems to have the Inside Scoops......wonder what Rodak has to do for his Garbage posts???

i agree 1.35 wont save Dareus, however the additional 4.15 this year and next is a good chunk of what will be needed to help save him compared to the ~1.4 Mil each year savings from EJ would be.

With that logic, wouldnt it make more sense to: keep EJ for this year and cut Cassel (cap savings of 4.15m for 2015). then draft said rookie in 2016 and cut EJ. So only his 1.X million cap hit from that year hits us. So we have the savings from his contract plus the 4 mil freed from Cassel. (~ 5+ Mil Cap savings) But resigning TT is assuming he figures out how to throw a TD in a game setting.

I do believe that the 5th year options are available to all 1st round players at the Teams discretion. Its like a mini-franchise tag. They have to declare it before the 4th year starts. Like they did with Marcell (last year) and now Gilmore (this year).

You saw the same thing I did as I was writing it up.

Not to rain on your parade. Your numbers may be right for savings, but your logic is flawed. Yes, Cutting EJ will save 2.8 million over 2 years. Cutting Cassel will save 4.15 million for 2015 and additionally 4.15 will be available for 2016 as it is not tied to anything So: If you cut EJ and keep Cassel this year and next year at ~3 Mil; its a savings of 3.95 Million over 2 years. If you cut EJ, and keep Cassel just for this year, its a savings of 6.95 Million over 2 years (Minus whatever you have to pay a backup QB...~1-3 MIL) So say savings of 4.95 Mil (assuming 2 Mil for the year for backup QB) If you cut Cassel, but keep EJ, its a savings of 8.3 Million over 2 years Cutting Cassel is a 3+ Million better option from my point of view.

oh i know..just giving ya a hard time. you post a lot of useful information that others just dont have the time to search out.

so if you delete a thread, does your post count still go up that 1 post.

well if thats the case, they definitely would have kept Fitzpatrick forever as he went to Harvard!!

Very, very impressive and was surprised by the very humble persona he emits. Now I am hoping that he generates world class hands to go with those world class wheels he possesses. (Too many s's in that word)

I take offense to this...oh wait..you were not talking about me...never mind....i will go back to my lurking mode Ok, i am confused...i see Vic Carucci QB breakdown from last night and it sounds like EJ was mediocre last night. From the tweets I saw, it sounded like he had a very strong practice..what gives...can anyone give a more accurate portrayal??

LOL, so i guess they might be having practice "elsewhere"
