ESPN High Level 2025 Draft Analysis
strive_for_five_guy replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall
You wouldn’t rather pay Curtis Samuel almost $10M/year? -
Look, Sal will tell you though

After the KC game, we probably shouldn’t mind it being banned 😬

Could the Bills be playing in Ireland?

Did the leprechaun look like McDermott too? -
The Switch between College to NFL gameplay
strive_for_five_guy replied to ryguy101's topic in The Stadium Wall
When I was in my 20s, I used to play pickup basketball games against guys that had played for nearby D3 colleges. Physically, these guys appeared just as athletic or more than some D1 players. But if you spent a minute talking to them or watching them play, you realized that they just didn’t have it mentally. That’s why a guy like LeBron is so amazing, b/c not only does he have unworldly physical abilities, but his mental awareness and vision on the court is also unheard of. -
Defensive Tackle: Is it the Players or the System?
strive_for_five_guy replied to Rubes's topic in The Stadium Wall
Maybe it was just me, but I loved having a guy like Linval Joseph, other than the fact it was for half a season and he was effectively near the end of his career. Too bad we never draft guys like that. -
It’d be ironic if the Bills re-signed Diggs, and Josh needed to go to Diggs’ place the night before a playoff game, to break up a domestic dispute.

No. He’s more valuable to the Bills than someone else.

I mean, how much of Bill Belichick’s success was because of Tom Brady, or Mike Tomlin because of Big Ben? A lot of coaches are nothing more than mediocre without the horses. Luck is an element of a lot in life, although Beane did a lot to position the team to be able to draft someone like Josh, and both and McD have done a lot of the offensive of the ball to help aid Josh’s development too.

He did have some exciting plays, so I could agree he brought more than Basham or Ragland ever did.
-
Boogie Basham, Reggie Ragland and Roscoe Parrish were all pretty worthless 2nd round picks.

If this team is willing to pay Curtis Samuel $8M/year, pretty sure they’ll find a way to pay Cook potentially $11M or $12M/year for maybe a 3 year deal. Plus, if Cook is only going to make $5M-$6M this year and wants $15M/year, then he’d prob be willing to take like $11M for the next three years, as he gets more money now and still $33M total (in my simple example).

Steelers approach Jags about a Trevor Lawrence Trade
strive_for_five_guy replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall
Riley Leonard caught my eye this season, felt like I was watching a less talented version of Josh, but similar styles. Curious where he might go in the draft this year, just don’t know how he’d fit into the Bills’ roster if we’ve already got Trubisky, White, etc. -
Steelers approach Jags about a Trevor Lawrence Trade
strive_for_five_guy replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall
Milton definitely passed the eye test as a high upside kind of guy against us. Never knew who he was before that game, but he’s got sick arm talent and the mobility needed in today’s game. -
Bengals LB Germaine Pratt Requests Trade
strive_for_five_guy replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
Is that really germane? -
Hmm, interesting. Maybe it depends if they scale back the preseason more too or not, and/or just decide to have Week 1 on Labor Day weekend? Pretty sure the NFL could make a ton of money bringing Week 1 back to that weekend. People have that Monday off and would definitely plan around the games, the NFL is that popular. Just like they’re already doing with Black Friday, Christmas, etc. Just a matter of NFL and NFLPA coming to some agreement.
