That would seriously be hilarious

My wife can attest to this as well. She got hit with it in October 2020 and she still isn’t 100%. She works out most days and is in generally good shape and health, but it’s still been a rough road back for her with exhaustion. She still has issues with smelling too.

Covid only knocked Garrett out of action for two games, but he looked like a shell of himself the rest the season. As mentioned above it took him a whole offseason with specialists and a ton of hard work to get himself all the way back to where he was pre-Covid. Obviously we don’t know if Dawkins is in a similar situation or not, but it’s my concern that he is. And reading what McDermott said about where he is right now does not alleviate any of that concern.

That’s exactly who Hart was with the Bungles. I can’t believe he got another crack at the NFL and I can’t believe it was the Bills who gave it to him. And I really, really, really can’t believe that we gave him $350k guaranteed. I’ll get Beane my phone number if he wants to piss away any more money on someone who has no business playing in the NFL. I am in no way knocking Rousseau here. He did exactly what he was supposed to do. Full points to him. Sewell’s set is garbage though. He turned his shoulders and hips to the outside and lost all of his leverage. He looked like a guy who hasn’t played in over a year and isn’t used to playing on the right side.

Late round pick(s) https://twitter.com/rapsheet/status/1426181911442038790?s=21 Scho is a good LB. As noted he’s good in coverage but not very good against the run. JAX just way overpaid for him a season ago. Looks like a one year rental for the Stillers.

RTs have not yet reached equilibrium with LTs, but it has gotten a lot closer in recent years. The days of a much cheaper RT who is primarily a run blocker to go with a LT who is primarily a pass protector are gone. Both better be quality players in pass pro now.

A brand new rookie and old vet Hughes will make a Tua Phish Sandwich

That’s good to know. I have done zero work on him myself. What we’re his big flaws (if you recall)?

To prevent teams from having 100 voidable years on contracts. It has also been limited to not exceed the end of the CBA in the past. Not sure if the current one has that clause or not.

They’d only really need to know that stuff if they were going to talk about it on air. Oh, wait.

Hate to see it happen to the Pats. Such a shame

$7.43M over three seasons left on Henderson’s contract. Fully guaranteed. Fifth year option available. He had a round one grade from every site I checked, though some had him mid to late first round. He’s a man coverage boundary CB so if he’s really available some team will take a shot on him. Like most here, any interest by the Bills would be dependent on compensation. The one thing I don’t buy is the BS about the Jags being so happy with their CB room they’d let him go. Why isn’t any other CB on the trade block? Why such a young, highly touted draft pick who you’ve already paid most of his contract dollars to? That makes no sense. They want him gone because of something up with him or the organization. Finding out the real story should be done before any real negotiations.

If you don't think that teams can find a difference maker at 17 - especially at MLB - then I don’t know what to tell you. Interior LBs are almost never taken early in the first round anyway. The Donald comment was just to show how ridiculous your statement about not finding difference makers after the early 1st is. The NFL is full of them. The Bills have a bunch of them too. How about Tre White? Or Diggs? Beasley? Hyde? Poyer? Milano?

Well, Leonard was drafted 36th overall and he’s a three time All Pro. Who’s going to tell Aaron Donald that he’s not a game changer because he went 13th overall?

Thanks. Had beach volleyball on the brain because I watched the gold medal match last night

Not sure what medals/competitions you’re referencing here. The US Women's Beach Volleyball teams have won several gold medals at the Olympics. Klineman in particular and Ross also have a bunch of gold medals from other competitions.

I know Tre is young, but 2020 was year 3 for him. I see how his injury likely impacted his ability to take on blockers. The good with him are the splash plays. He makes some great ones. He is outstanding at scraping sideline to sideline. But on the bad side are his mistakes, of which there are too many. If he cleaned up his coverage and gap integrity issues, he’d probably be an All Pro. But those haven’t gotten better and I don’t think a full offseason in 2020 would’ve made a big difference. Still, things can click for players. Maybe it’ll be easier for him this season with him being fully healthy.

I think we know who Edmunds is as a player already and he’s not worth close to that IMO. He does, however, deserve a chance to prove he is. We have him locked up for two seasons so let’s see how this year - and maybe next - goes.

All Pro and washed up vets/JAGs aren’t the only two options. It definitely doesn’t work like that. There were reasonable options in FA and the draft, but Beane went in other directions. I’m hoping we add another decent CB for depth before the season starts because we are thin.

I like it. It is the market value deal that Allen earned and it got done at a time that made a lot of sense for both sides. Allen didn’t take a discount, but I didn’t expect him to. And there is nothing wrong with that.

That’s not even close to true. He’s worth $193B and there are around 330 million us citizens. He could give everyone $584 and have nothing left. You beat me to it

I’ll make this simple, but this is based on OverTheCap’s numbers because they make a lot more sense than Spotrac’s: Addison: The total difference between him playing this season and getting cut is $2M. That does not include someone to replace him on the team. Butler: Difference between keeping and cutting is $3.3M, less replacement cost. Hope that helps.

Congratulations to both sides. Allen got PAID and the Bills locked him up for 8 seasons. Huge wins on both sides.

I suspect that veteran staters will be getting a lot less preseason playing time than we’re used to seeing. I expect to see that league wide with some exceptions for new offenses

If they moved the Bills the Pegulas would have to sell all of their other investments in Buffalo, including the Sabres (quite possibly a good thing) and their massive real estate investments in Pegulaville. No way would Bills fans support those. In all likelihood there would be a boycott of everything Pegula connected. The saddest thing here is that Austin was the best threat Jerruh’s firm could come up with. They’re embarrassing themselves. There’s no chance of all that happening if they’re getting a reasonable deal on the new stadium.
