Bleeding Bills Blue

I dunno... multiple suspensions for drugs. Drag racing. Enjoyed 2 years in Club rex. Showed up late to a preseason GAME. not a meeting, not a practice. a GAME. Show a little accountability for yourself Marcel.

Yeah?

He's not even a starter...

I think they didn't see a large drop off after davis/yarbrough/capi played... and none of them was expensive or hard to acquire.

Yeah - been like a long time since he was a coordinator in the NFL and he spent a lot of time with McDaniels before going to bama. Clearly with Hurts you're going to run a lot.

I know if my QB sucks I'm going to take the ball from his hands as much as possible...

Whats the excuse for not using his arms/hands...? Even holding a foot there will prevent him from getting out of bounds. I could see jumping up for a deflection and missing or something trying to play the ball there. But you let him catch it - all you had to do was tackle him!

He does take really good care of his body - if he wants to keep playing and continues playing at a high level I say let him. I'd actually consider extending him to lower the cap hit this year if he plans on playing in 2019.

Personally, i liked Keenum in 2016. I felt like he was shredding us until he threw that pick-6 to NRC. Then the wheels came off - but still wouldve liked to have brought him in over Yates.

Just don't understand it at all... he's deep covering no one, and comes flying in and doesn't play the ball at all... just grab his legs and its game

Writing is likely on the wall for Tyrod. Only way he sticks is if he took a massive paycut to the colt mccoy/nick foles pay level.

Hated - Dolphins and patriots Liked - uhhh bengals forever now.

The offense is likely fine whether you have him or not. I think McVay thinks he can do something with the guy - and i honestly don't think they intend to extend him. Its a 2018 play to have the best possible offense before you pay Donald.

There's other CB's available, they might be able to get someone else. Tagging Sammy is a strange choice with Donald's holdout looming. Doesn't exactly set a precedent that you value your best player. He'll likely play because the teams better when he's underpaid. But 2019 is coming and he will likely not suit up under a franchise tag.

He plays special teams. Same with Humber. Can't get rid of all your core special teamers.

The rams lost a 2nd round pick in the deal, and will either need another receiver via trade or draft. The first pick will likely have to be a corner if they can't reach a deal with trumaine johnson, and they need to save a chunk of cap for aaron donald. Donald's under contract but he most likely won't play unless he gets an extension.

I thought that meant like - leaving no stone unturned with regards to improving the team.

You can point that out on every QB. Yes its more prevalent with TT, but that always happens. I just think the offense is incredibly blah.

Right - but I prefer having to beat someone out for a job. If the new guy is better than him and wants his job, prove it on the field. There's no bonus, or guarantee tied to the contract - so we can cut him any time before the season starts. I'd bring him to camp. Especially if KW retires.

I dunno - there should be some accountability imo. We are worse at everything than we were previously. That sends a message that you can't adjust, that you aren't a strong game planner and play caller. Also - we were SO bad in the 2nd half of games - whether winning or losing. It's not all the QB, when we can't get a first down late in a game running the ball. I watched Tenn ice a game in the playoffs running the ball at the end. Why were we always punting in those situations...? Because the guy couldn't get anything out of our talent running the ball. If he was younger, and trying to develop himself maybe. This guy is who is he is, and it isn't good. Why do we want to give him more time?

His history doesn't exactly scream success... especially considering he worked under kubiak all that time. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/coaches/DennRi0.htm Why do we have to give him another year? What did he do to deserve another year?

I dunno - we have cap space and like terrible depth regarding pass rushers and LBs. I wouldn't cut him until the depth charts are more solidified - so basically i bring him to camp and give him a chance to keep his job.

We had the same QB in 2016 and were better in pretty much every statistical category.

Scout the hell out of the top 4 - if the top 2 are out at 1/2, and you love 3. Make it happen.

Lorax is 3 mil on an expiring deal - i'd keep him even if he just played teams and depth. He's a locker room leader and was a special teams ace before the last 2 years. I wouldn't cut benjamin as he has trade value if you wanted to dump him (i think they like him a lot though). He's also under contract this year for a pretty reasonable 8 million. Cutting dimarco saves us 500k, not sure we need to do that if we want to carry a FB. Holmes/ducasse/washington are all cut candidates should they be replaced as they're fringe players anyway. Cordy's tough to trade after ending the year on IR - he's likely a cut candidate in 2019 if he has another injury year. Hughes is the only pass rusher on the team that's any good - so I doubt that they move him. Half a mil signing bonus - http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/lorenzo-alexander-2773/ We're already rolling 18 mil in dead cap this year and only carried over 11... so we're -7 million in the hole before free agency even opens. I don't look at this like a team who's going to be cutting and signing people like mad. Likely make a play for a QB, and do some dumpster diving again. They're trying to get out from under a number of bad contracts in Dareus, Glenn, Tyrod, Clay
