  1. We should absolutely trade him. Regardless of what we want to do with with the franchise tag or a long term contract, Sammy is going to be playing for someone else in 2019. We've seen this same story over and over, Winfield, Clements, Byrd, Peters, Poz, Lynch, McGahee, Gilmore, the list goes on and on. He's not getting the option because he's been hurt, not because of on field performance and not because of off field drama, he's been hurt playing football, and not even as hurt as some people want to make it seem (played all 16 games in 2014, then 13 then 8 with the foot last year). That' s a slap in the face to Sammy.
  2. If he's allowed to hit the market, he's gone. Saying "no team will spend big money on an injury prone wr" shows little understanding of the league . Sammy is reconized around the league as an elite talent. IMO this is the first step towards losing him just like Gilmore. We should deal him now if we are intent on playing a game of chicken about his health.
  3. I hated giving away the extra 3rd. I wouldn't have cared if they gave away all of day 3, but guys like Beckwith and Carl Lawson seem well ahead of what we ended up with later.
  4. Wish we would have just taken another shot at QB with Kaaya. The college "try hard" linebackers without measurables never amount to anything.
  5. We could have taken Ramzcyk / one of Wilson - Tabor - Awuize / Godwin, accomplished the same thing and kept our late 3rd and all 3 5ths....
  6. Lattimore was the #1 player I did not want.
  7. The way the Mark Kay Spin Machine tossed it out there made it seem they offered pick #12, the Pats said no, but now they have more ammo because they have the Texans pick next year.
  8. Nah, they are just starting to accumulate real talent, so they want to make sure they don't have any depth or any vets to help the young kids. Accidentally winning 5 games and being out of the running for guys like Darnold and Rosen (if they are what they are supposed to be) would set their plan back. Well, Joe Thomas... 2 years ago he was their best skill player. Last year was not nearly as good. Pryor was easily better than him last year.
  9. Mary Kay is ridiculous. How do they have "more ammo"? One would assume they were including #12, if not #33 in their offer last night. They turned #12 into #25, which they used, and got a '18 pick expected to be much lower than #12. They don't have #33 anymore either. They don't have more ammo today than they had yesterday.
  10. Got to be careful not to get too good.
  11. We don't use the 5th year option on guys who can play anyway.
  12. It's usually "Jordan Mills is so bad it doesn't matter if we don't have receivers" or "Tyrod doesn't throw to the open receiver I saw running opposite the play side anyway, so why do we need better ones?"
  13. Its why the Browns trade downs the last two years are either brilliant or will lead to a few guys working for what's left of ESPN. If Wentz / Trub / Watson are all busts, the Browns are brilliant. If Wentz is playing Watson in the Super Bowl in 3 years and the Browns still don't have a QB, their entire braintrust will be radioactive. There's more pressure on them to find a QB as any team in the league and they've got 3-4 guys who any one would make them look really really bad (not to mention Cody Kessler over Dak).
  14. The Bucs added OJ Howard to Evans and DeSean Jackson The Bengals added John Ross to AJ Green and Tyler Eifert The Giants added Evan Engram to ODB, Brandon Marshall, Sterling Shepard The Chargers added Mike Williams to Keenan Allen, Hunter Henry, Travis Benjamin Our 3 WR - 1 TE sets include Philly Brown, Andre Holmes and Charles Clay But hey, Tyrod can't throw anyway, so we don't need WRs.
  15. If we have a QB of our own, it's no big deal. If we don't then he'll replace the "We could have drafted Aaron Rodgers" narrative. If he's a franchise QB and we still don't have one, what we do with the picks is entirely irrelevant. Anyone without a QB would trade a pro bowl corner and 2 other good players for a franchise QB.
  16. "This is an interesting trade for the Chiefs because they currently have a very expensive roster and the only thing that does not make this entirely lopsided in the Bills favor is that by dumping a first rounder next year the Chiefs save themselves somewhere in the ballpark of $11M in guaranteed salary. So in theory they are saving money that can either help them retain current players or sign someone in free agency. For a “win now” kind of team there can be some merit in that. KC has to remain a playoff team to justify that logic." What a moron. I'll gladly take all the 1st round picks from teams close to the salary cap and help them out. I'd give them a 7th round pick back, but I wouldn't want to further muck up their salary cap.
  17. I realize his character concerns may take him out of the equation, but no one else would be ok with Dalvin Cook at 44? We clearly are going to be a run first offense, he gives us two potentially great backs, a strong compliment to Shady and an eventual long term replacement. What's more Bills than taking a DB and RB with our first two picks?
  18. Never. It's all rigged. The NFL knows Browns fans and Bills fans are bought in, the teams never have to get good. The NFL needs "big market' fair weather fan teams like New England, Miami, the Cowboys, the Giants to be good to get casual fans to buy merchandise. Even if we were good our revenue wouldn't change dramatically. So we'll just go along recycling talent for the big teams to boost their rosters and sell just enough hope to keep the tailgates flowing and our little piece of revenue trickling in.
  19. As late WRs I really like Josh Malone, especially if he happens to be there in round 5 (I don't expect it) Robert Davis (Thomas Davis's cousin), he's a freak athlete with good size, at the very least I think he could be an Easley replacement on special teams. Michael Rector is another late guy who tested very well.
  20. Won't. Be. Picked.
  21. But he got trucked by Le'Veon Bell that one time and burnt by Chris Hogan when the safety blew the play that other time. Bum.
  22. Notre Dame was a mess last year. Kizer lost his LT, his #1 WR and his RB, all played well in the NFL last year. Corey Robinson was a team leader from 2015 and he quit playing football before 2016. Jaylon Smith was another team leader and left, Joe Schmidt graduated. Kizer got the job due to injury and ran with it, but Kelly put Zaire back into the fold without him really earning it. The defense was terrible and so were the WRs and expectations of "Notre Dame" and a potential national title run were put on his shoulders.. I watched the Showtime show following Notre Dame, they lost every single leader and player featured on the show after the season. It was a pretty tough spot to put a pretty young guy into.
  23. The locker room is supposedly full of high character guys who do things the right way now.
  24. I'd be happy with Kizer in the 2nd, especially if he's there at 44. Draft Kizer, flip Tyrod to the Browns, play Cardale and groom Kizer, if neither guy makes steps towards being the long term answer we'll be in position to take someone next year.
  25. The brilliant move would be trading Tyrod to the QB desperate Browns for early picks next year, play Cardale and tank like champs unless Cardale shocks the world.
