Why come into a thread titled “unpopular opinion” and take offense to someone else’s “unpopular opinion?”

That feels like fair compensation. I actually think that the Jets may give up a little less (like a 5th).

That’s what I’m thinking. I saw on the Jets message board they were complaining about a 1,3 and backup OL or a 1,5, and starting caliber DB. That seemed to be rumors from the Cowboys end. That actually feels like fair compensation IMO. That’s about what I’d expect.

This is where they dropped the ball. I’d bet if they knew they could get Lamb they would have never paid Cooper. They can certainly afford Dak but he needed to be the priority.

I tend to agree here. From reading a lot of this thread I’m not sure that Bills fans fully comprehend just how good Adams is. He’s the best safety in football (and I don’t think it’s that close). What separates Adams from everyone else is that he’s elite in coverage and in the box. Adams is a chess piece in the modern NFL. He can do everything and at a high level. If the Jets lose him the pass defense will crumble.

They’ll have something like 9 of their best 10 players under contract for at least 3 years. The Cowboys can do it easily and have the rest of the core guys locked up long term (Martin, T Smith, Zeke, Cooper, Lawrence, J Smith, Lamb, Gallup, etc...). The Cowboys went a different route than everyone else and signed the roster before the QB.

You’re a terrorist

And Dak’s most recent year was his best. It’s certainly possible he takes another small step forward. He’s a top 10ish QB now. I don’t think that he ever gets to top 5 because he’s a little limited physically but he’s good. If you have a good QB you should take care of him.

That’s why it’s called an unpopular opinion. I’m calling for 7 or less which we’d all agree is a little less than expected.

One more unpopular opinion: I think that it’s more likely that the Bills win the AFC East than it is that the Bills win 10+ games.

With that being said the Bills have the easiest schedule in the division. https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/nfl-strength-of-schedule-2020-hardest-easiest/k6tyxtfog6uh14hb6vh59icqe

As I understand it his sacks came in bunches against bad players. Candidly, I didn’t go back and look but know he really cooled off.

Mario Addison will underachieve. He didn’t have a sack in like the last 8 games and he ate up terrible OTs other than that. I say he has less than 7 sacks which he hasn’t done in years.

The likeliest to play IMO is football based on the timeline. The NBA could also be considered 1 as their plan is, by far, further along than anyone else. I say football because they have basically 5 or 6 weeks to start the regular season after the NBA. No one else is all that close.

The tricky part is that sports and covid/social activism are so intertwined right now. They can’t operate independently of one another. These issues can actually prevent these leagues from playing.

Is anyone going to point out how sports are back up and running in the rest of the world? Our bungling of the whole Covid-19 situation will be to blame if we have no football in the fall.

I hate certain fans more than teams. Obviously I hate EVERYTHING about New England. Because I live in New Orleans, Saints fans annoy me more than Dolphins fans (for example). I’m just surrounded by them. Additionally, we see a lot of different fan bases come through as a destination city. You learn stuff like 49ers fans are OBNOXIOUS. I’m so removed from them I’d never know that. A lot of it ends up your personal experience.

The Cowboys will offer a 1st and the Jets will accept (maybe a mid-round pick ends up there too).

You’re absolutely entitled to your opinion. We just disagree on the bolded. How much talk has Colin Kapernick’s protest generated? To say that it hasn’t been impactful just isn’t true.

That dude does a really, really nice job. A little unrelated but I think Josh is going to end up being really good. I may eat those words at some point but I don’t think so. He’s going to end up one of the tops QBs in the league.

So if they kneel for the anthem you’ll still watch them play football after correct?

Do you really think that NO Bills will kneel?!? I’ll save you the 3 months of anticipation. There will 100%, definitely, without question, be Bills players kneeling for the anthem.

I had no idea. I stand corrected

Fox News throwing around “star” pretty loosely huh?

This time they’re serious though
