  1. This is my thought as well. As posted earlier, I do think Kumerow is the one who beat out Hollister as a receiving threat. McD just does not want to make that public before the start of the season. We have not seen anything good or bad from Sweeney it feels. I think he would have cleared waivers and made it to the PS without issue. In that scenario why not keep Knox, Hollister, and Gilliam with Sweeney on the PS? I do think Quinton Morris is an interesting TE PS prospect.
  2. 2 things. 1. The Jets have been dysfunctional. As far as I am considered, they still are until they prove they aren't. I am not sure that is a great spot. 2. I actually liked Kroft. I thought he did well in his spot duty. Was he great? No. But he was a reliable target when given the chance. Sort of like a Scott Chandler.
  3. This is my guess. I don't know the TE situation around the league, but I would assume that there are few better places to get the opportunity to shine outside of Buffalo right now. I don't see how being TE 2 or 3 for a team like the Raiders is a better fit for him in the long term.
  4. Dude I am not turning this into a Hollister vs. the World thread. My point was that McD bringing up Knox in regards to people asking about Hollister seems disingenuous. I think most people can wrap their head around the fact that Knox is the starter and this staff is committed to him as a player at the moment. I think what people are questioning is the fact that he didn't make the roster at all despite having a good preseason, some prior NFL production, and familiarity with our starting QB, on a team needing more production from the TE position that keeps dragging on a year long rumor about Zach Ertz. Which is fair. I am saying Kumerow beat him out for that role, bringing Knox into the conversation by McD just creates a conversation that isn't relevant to why Hollister is not on the roster. Go crusade against Kumerow or for Sweeney/Knox in the other 5 threads about the issue.
  5. Am I the only one who does not get the hype. I was at lunch the other day, and the bartender was talking about how he looked like Brady....WHAT? I think he has a good arm and is an accurate passer, but he seems to stare down receivers for eternity. Unless he fixes that, I just see him getting worked by starting defenses who are game planning against him. The Phins defense was solid last year. Unless they get a little surprised because he is a rook, and play on their heels a bit, I suspect 2 picks from Jones.
  6. So I don't think he is addressing the issue some are scratching their heads about re: the tight end room. Knox is the starter, OK. But what has Sweeney shown to keep him and not Hollister? This sort of feels like not bringing in a quality vet to challenge your young QB so that you can show faith in him. Except you don't put two QB's on the field at the same time. I have had a suspicion that Hollister didn't lose his job to Sweeney, he lost it to Kumerow. If they want two receiving TE's on the field, I suspect the staff thinks Kumerow can fill that role. They are the same height, Hollister has 30 lbs, but Kumerow is quicker. I suspect Kumerow is a better ST player as well. They view Kumerow as a better big bodied receiving threat and provides more utility at ST.
  7. I thought Kroft was a nice option. A steady hand if you will. He stepped in well when Knox went down. Could he be replaced? Sure. The TE room is weird at the moment. Optics can be as important as results. We don’t know how much input has in offensive personnel. He may whine like Rogers behind closed doors or you might be right. But the way guys like Rogers have handled their situations is bad at every level.
  8. I am just busting balls. You didn’t break any etiquette. No worries. Keep doing you.
  9. Found a keeper guys! But seriously, I can get behind the City of Buffalo Flag design once in a blue moon. https://www.trainwrecksports.com/5-concept-helmets-the-buffalo-bills-need-to-wear/
  10. I like that you responded to somebody. Then quoted that response in the same post, responding to yourself. Your life seems fun.
  11. Like going deep with a playoff game on the line kinda interesting?
  12. Yeah, it seems like OP is the real driver of this thread otherwise it would have petered out. A lot of "well what would you like to see?" or "what designs do you like?". I wouldn't be shocked if OP is actually Dylan Young, the original designer , or if he works for TSE. Regardless, this thing is a swing and a miss. The Bills currently have one of the best uniforms in the league, helmet included. I like the white way more than the red and I have since day one. Blue could work, but not this one.
  13. Wait, we cut Reid Ferguson? His back must not be doing well at all. Time for AJE to shine!
  14. His Chicago contract was only about $1M. Doubt we even need to go that high for a one year deal.
  15. I am curious of Desmond Trufant still. It has been quietly nagging at me all day. I don't know how much he has left in the tank, but he is at least "young enough" to help fill out our depth better than Norman or Vontae did. Not sure he would upset Levi, but we have depth issues as a whole. I would kick the tires and see what it would cost.
  16. If I had to guess, Bojo came in high, the Bills declined, and found another solution while Bojo tested the market. He overvalued himself and lost out. It happens sometimes. I think if CB came to Beane at $1M he would be a Bill right now. I was a Bojo fan, I felt he took some time to reign in himself in in the NFL, but he was a good punter for us last year.
  17. The Bills have had a tough time selling out late season and or bad weather games even when they were good. We just forget because of the black out rules. 60k is probably a projection on historical capacity for the Ralph in inclement weather and what they anticipate ticket value being with lesser supply during the early parts of the season. I dislike it as a fan but probably a good business decision.
  18. Lets get one thing out of the way, Beasley is a better WR at this stage of his career than Cam is a QB. BUT...they have very similar cap hits if they were to be cut. Maybe don't be shocked if Beasley is cut given McKenzies new vaccination and Stevenson in pre-season? (although I would not put money on it)
  19. Yeah, that is my thought. For those saying "YuO cAn'T bE cUt FoR nOt BeInG vAcCiNaTed". Cam may not have been good last year, but he is better than Hoyer and Stidham, They are rolling with a rookie and Brian Hoyer to start the season.
  20. Let me rephrase, that. I wish that if Josh were endorsing wings, he wouldn't be going with a chain of any kind. An actual wing from Buffalo. I want Josh to have a different national endorsement. Mostly because I am a petty fool.
  21. I saw one on insta where Josh was the first. Also, I am glad he has a national endorsement. But it sucks that the QB of the Buffalo Bills has an endorsement with a crappy wing franchise. I am torn. Go Bills!
  22. That is my thought. I don't get the sense that Houston has tried to take any moral high ground through any of this. Somebody is trying to drive the value down? I have sort of lost track of his whole saga, but skill set aside, I do not see much value in trading for him if I am a team. At any moment he could end up on the commissioners exempt list. For all we know, the guy could end up in jail in 9 months. Why would I give up a haul for that?
  23. Gabe Davis reminds me more of a Robert Woods Lite then he does a Mike Evans. Thats not a knock, Bob Woods is a hell of a football player.
  24. I get what you’re saying, but god do I get this response. This is an internet message board, where average Joe’s voice their opinion on football. You could use this response on literally every post and comment on this board.
  25. I am sure there are agents who see an unvaccinated Davis and Beasley, with a client like McKenzie who can see the writing on the wall. “Get vaxed, be available and don’t be a headache. His paycheck could be yours next year” It is a no brainer.
