Only like 25% of his college catches came from the slot. Because of his size and hands, he can certainly work inside and that is most certainly a value add. But I don't think he is a slot receiver in the traditional sense that a guy like Beasley was. He isn't a guy that will line up 85% of the time inside. IMO he is the perfect guy to be your 3rd or 4th outside WR and also be able to kick inside in certain packages and situations. I am being sort of sarcastic about Hodgins in general because he did have one great camp before he caught the injury bug. But also I really don't love our depth on the outside and would love somebody to be better than Kumerow. Also we will have to get pretty good at developing WR in the draft with the Allen and Diggs contracts.

Honestly, if I am Baker Mayfield, I am glad this is happening now. He has most certainly flashed outside of an injury last season. His org is a total disaster. Every situation can't be Josh and The Bills. Better to have a few good years, cut ties and pick your next landing spot rather than be stuck with that org for a decade or more. If they didn't blow this with Watson they would have botched it with different bad trades, signings, drafts. Mistakes like this by Cleveland are systemic. If I am a QB needy team I would not hesitate to scoop him up.

I am still holding out hope for the 2020 Isaiah Hogins to get healthy and make the roster

There is most certainly some recency bias but McK looks to me to be a better receiver in Buffalo than Tavon Austin ever was. I don't really get this one. I think it is a camp body. If anything we could use depth outside. Otherwise I am fine with Crowder and McK inside.

Something like 20% of women are the victims of rap and only about 1/3 are reported. The data around false accusations implies it is minimal. Think about that next time you are in a room full of women, especially ones that you care about. The idea that under most circumstances at least one has been raped or experienced an attempted rape. Then literally go look at yourself in the mirror and audibly say, "I bet she is lying". and see how that fits.

Some of the generalized views of women on this thread are really concerning.It is really gross and even scary in some cases. So much vitriol towards an entire gender. We get “warning points” for talking politics out of turn around kneeling or shootings. But providing a safe space to talk about how women are some deceptive subclass of human who have been strategically manipulating men for millennia is peak misogyny and privilege. I have a really bad taste in my mouth about the character of a number of people on this thread. I really hope the women in my life are not involved with them at all.

I thought he "Pat is in his head", because he was carrying the team.

He has gone full Gronk.

How about 3 plays from your own 5 yard line. Most yards win. Defensive TD's give the teams offense an Extra go of it. Safeties let the other offense start at the 10.

Am I the only one that reads this as "Dead and Company" everytime they log in?

I am in NYC a couple times per month. So a couple of weeks ago my better half and I made a long weekend out of it. Mostly because we think the food in the capital region sucks overall. Anyways we’re just so of wandering after brunch and we’re at the Empire State Building sort of by accident and thought we’d give it a go since we hadn’t gone up since we’re were kids. It was like $80 bucks. We noped the hell out of that one, big time.

This is a good take. I am not sure he wants top 5 money. But I do think he wants some consistency in being paid to his performance. He’s been underpaid every day he’s worn a Bills jersey, and he’s been a top 10 paid safety just twice. 2020 when he signed his extension and this current year. If he gets something similar to Mathieu, I think he stays honestly. Comparatively Poyer has made $30M career to date compared to Honey Badgers $73M. They aren’t the same guy, but I am sure Poyer looks at his peers and things “man, where’d I miss out?” Outside of Josh on a rookie deal, Poyer has probably been the most financially under valued player on the team. In that respect I’d love to see him finally get his pay day and retire a Bill. But football is a business...

Don’t move the goal posts. Your take was based on Poyer being over paid and some outrage from people in 2017. I’ll save you the leg work. I’ll put the link to his FA signing thread below so you can refresh. Most of the thread is about him being a good athlete and most likely a backup signing. Not a single response saying his contract is too high. NOT.ONE. There are quite literally two comments about his contract. The thread is archived so I can’t directly quote but they are: ”$3.25M isn’t starter money…” - @JM57 “Looks like a decent contract” - @wppete Poyer has outplayed his contract with Buffalo and you fabricated some history. Full stop. You quite literally made something up. Take the L and go work on penning your apology letter to the board.

You literally just made this up. Like there should be a message board rule where if you take such a hard stance on things that most certainly did not happen then you have to reach out to everybody who positively engaged with your post and say: I think only time can heal this wound.... Here are Poyers career cap numbers, ranking among his peers, and his money compared to the highest paid S in the league. https://overthecap.com/position/safety/2021/

RIP Dane Jackson.

That dvLED wall....

Ken Dorsey looks like he’s about to wander into his corner bodega and pick up a couple loosies.

He’s really taking the Big Ben approach to offseason training. Thicc boi! I think there is a world where the Pats are the worst team in the AFCE this year. It’s going to come down to QB play for the other three teams. Tua has the edge based on experience.

If this is true could Collinsworth and Co. be facing a major lawsuit from the league? I know every franchise pays for their data, if that data can be artificially manipulated for cash they could be taking on the full force of the NFL in court.

It would be cool if instead of the color rush red jersey, the Bills did a handful of games in all black this year.

I am a bit biased, I grew up and lived a good portion of my adult life on the WS and EV. I get wanting to live in the city. But he could have like 2500 square feet and a beautiful home on Richmond, Anderson, Linwood, Dorchester, etc. for like half the price. His place would be very low on my choices city or suburbs.

This one hurts. I didn’t grow up on the east side. But I did grow up in a really diverse west side. I’ve spent a good part of my adult life living on the west side working with refugees at Journeys End and Viva La Casa on the east side. To see this happen to people of color in my community, a community I’ve put some work into, really hurts.

Probably worth noting, their only short week is @ Detroit. If I picked one team on the schedule to have 4 days prep for it is Detroit. I have read some comments on how the front end of the schedule is brutal. If the Bills are who we think they are it won't be a big deal. I have a gut feeling that Tennessee and Baltimore take a step back this year. I also thought the Rams were a good team but mostly hype last year. The last time I watched the Bills play football they were the best Buffalo team I have seen in my adult life. I am not afraid of the schedule one bit. The Josh Allen Revenge Tour starts September 8!

Would love to go!

I don’t know why I find this so hilarious. https://www.buffalobills.com/video/the-buffalo-bills-reveal-the-2022-schedule
