I agree about the drop pass, but when you dig deeper you will see this guy is not good enough at running the football. No size to break tackles and no burst or speed to run by players in this league. It was a bust pick and i felt that way the day we drafted him, 4.65 in the 40 is not going to get it done. The Chiefs basically said we think your RB is useless and were going to play 6 DBS all night. Upgrade by signing another released RB or drafting one and please no more guys from small schools that you never even heard about before draft night. From his scouting report during draft year: Lacks top-end speed to run away from opponents in space Play speed tends to be monotone throughout the rep Rarely keeps runs play-side and looks for early cuts Excessive cuts will be met with earlier tackles from swarming, NFL defenders Will need to learn to run a more disciplined track Tendency is to bounce it to his left Power diminishes when facing squared contact Suffered from focus drops this season

I think it also present the Bills an opportunity to find guys that were released by other teams, another reason why there is no reason to be overpaying Milano

Were not one of those teams with loads of space, i believe we are over right now. I do not believe it would be wise to cut players so we can throw big money at a LB who is not elite or even in the great category. I think there will be plenty of players that get cut/released this offseason for salary cap reasons, this is what the Patriots did for years. They let many players walk over the years that were not great and replaced them so they could stay competitive . When i think of Milano i think of his huge missed tackle on Watson in the playoffs last season and his swing and a miss tackle on Mahomes this season, then you add Kelce doing whatever he chooses along with our LB'S being worse in the NFL covering TE'S. Yes i will agree he is a good player, i just don't believe you pay him a mountain of money because that is saved for difference makers. -

In a normal year he would have been paid, this is not a normal free agency year. Plenty of teams will be cutting players just to get under the cap, their spread sheets do not add up. The projected cap was targeted at around 210-215, Beane talked about this in his presser. He is lucky to sign for around 6-8 million this season on open market and Beane knows that. So beyond what he is worth, you have to consider supply & demand and how many teams have cap space space. -

I agree, our LB'S were worse in the league covering TE'S, plenty of cheaper options to keep up to those standards yet he thinks he needs to get paid. I guarantee that on open market this season because of Covid & loss revenues he does not get more than 6-8 mll a season. The fact is the cap is down and many teams are going to need to cut players including the Chiefs who are around 200 mill witn a cap around 176-178. So that means the supply will go up and demand down, bad year to be a free agent. Teams were projecting a cap well over 210 mill, so plenty of cuts coming. Book it and people and copy this post and let me know if i am wrong. Do your homework & you will see that the salary cap math this season for all teams is not good -

Right so go ahead and pay him 14-15million , and lets cut 3-4 players to do that because he thinks he should be paid more even though he cannot stop or even contain Kelce -

I would need to look at who is available but you can cross our two guys off that list for sure and your not getting past KC unless you stop him & Hill -

I believe our brand is higher, we should no longer be paying huge money for average talent. We should get the same type of deals the Patriots were getting on solid vet players. Enough of this overpaying nonsense, -

This my point, why pay big money when neither guy could even slow Kelce down. Upgrade the position if your paying big bucks
