He could be a decent LB hahaha. Possibly, depending how the first round goes, I could see a few targets in round 2. Kris Jenkins, Ruke Orhorhoro, Braden Fiske all seem like good selections. I could also see some activity in rounds 4/5 with players like Jordan Jefferson and Gabe Hall. Barring a trade to the 3rd we likely will miss out on players like Mekhi Wingo and Maason Smith.

Hahahaha wow the Bears played themselves.

Historically speaking, he is baiting the hook and seeing how many people bite. It’s kinda funny at this point. He could tweet out “New shoes” and people are gonna be like “OMG ARE THEY BLACK AND SILVER? DIGGS TO RAIDERS CONFIRMED!!” Just remember this is part of his offseason entertainment. Stop reading into it so much.

Generational wealth, a championship, and a future HOF. Retire now and literally enjoy the rest of your life. Get out with your body and brain in tact and live it up

The Patriots are the dark horse here in my view. They need serious help, and with a new coach are allowed a little wiggle room before having to panic. Vikes send 11, 23, and nex years’ 2nd to move up to 3. NE then sends their 3rd this year to Chicago to get Fields. They go WR at 11, OT at 23, and they have just filled 3 of their biggest needs. If Fields is bad, you’ll be in a position to get a better QB next year. They have the convenience of time for their new staff to get it right and can afford to shore up everything before QB if needed. If Fields does well, they’re set and they got some good quality picks in addition.

It really depends how the 27 teams in front of us go. Suddenly the Chargers have lost their top-2 WRs, meaning they now likely covet a WR ahead of us where a few days ago it was far less likely. Tampa was at risk of losing their best WR but offered him a big payday to stay, but he’s 31 at the start of the season and will eventually need to be replaced. We know the Cards are likely taking one, and the Titans just overpaid big time for Ridley, likely taking them out of consideration as they have other needs early on to address. i can see the following teams in front of us possibly going WR: Arizona, Chargers, Giants, Jets (though I bet OL is addressed rd 1), Broncos, maybe Colts, maybe Bengals, and Houston. Then there’s the Chiefs who have fewer needs than most, but WR being one of them doesn’t rule out a trade up for them to slide in front of us. That’s 8-9 teams who could be looking WR in round 1, and even if 2-3 of them listed don’t go that direction, that leaves 6 that very well could. Harrison, Nabors, Odunze, Thomas Jr, AD Mitchell, McConkey, Worthy make the top-7 options currently. Assuming a worst-case scenario and the Bills have a very bad night 1 of the draft and all these guys are gone before 28, I can easily see trading back or getting another BPA at a position of need. McD would be salivating if DeJean or Chop fell as a result. I’m not advocating for this, I’m just keeping a real perspective on what COULD happen. At the end of the day, whatever happens, we need to leave the first 2 rounds with at least one WR. Not to replace Gabe, but to replace Diggs. I’d rather it be round 1, but there’s always a chance it doesn’t happen that way.

He’s like a junior Kirk Cousins. While Kirk found Elite QB money with upper-mid talent at best, Peterman found NFL base salary money with very little talent.

Sure, but we don’t need a 1st round IOL or S. The only exception to that is Cooper DeJean but I doubt he falls to 28

Man, I picked the wrong career path. I’m already incompetent but likeable, but in 11 years at my current job I’ve probably made less than this incompetent but likeable dork has in one. i could have sucked at football and made bank… I DO suck at football, what am I saying? PUT ME IN COACH

After today, here’s what I see: 1. While WR should still be priority #1, Samuel is a good signing and makes it easier for the Bills to focus on BPA in the draft in those first 2 rounds especially. Depending how they grade out, I can see a lot of real possibilities 2. Safety is still very thin for us, and this is a deeper draft for Safeties. I expect to spend possibly 2 later picks for young/affordable guys unless we trade a bunch away. 3. If WR go on a run and we don’t have any with a round 1 grade left, expect a trade back… unless: 4. Cooper DeJean somehow sliding to 28 could make it very hard to pass up. He’d likely be BPA and a position of need if he slides. McD would be pounding his McMeat if he could draft this guy. It’s not likely, but not impossible. 5. That being said, my draft priorities remain unchanged, and in this order: WR, DT, Edge, S, IOL, CB.

Ah, the ol’ Ralph Special 😂

What are we gonna do with all these 6th round comp picks next year? Lol 😂

There are so many quality WRs in the draft this year, and while the top-3 might be better overall, the cost to move up high enough to get them far outweighs the “drop” in talent to the 2nd level guys we will likely be able to get sitting still at 28. if it gets to pick 20 and the guy you absolutely must have is there, ok, now we can consider moving some lower picks to advance, but even that is going to be expensive if you get into a bidding war. If there were only 3 guys you wanted round 1 I’d consider it (maybe), but you’d be insane to do it this year. Guys like Mitchell, Coleman, and McConkey are close enough in skill that you walk away happy with whomever is available at your pick, and you don’t move mountains to get them.

If he hasn’t flown out to KC yet I’d be shocked. They’ve got about $15m to spend. 2 year backloaded deal makes way too much sense for a team in need of very little aside from a WR and some depth linemen

Agree with this. DaQuon and AJ coming back are at least shoring up the defense for now. We have our RB2/3 re-signed as of today, we could still potentially make a few more signing or maybe one bigger signing (with an extension or restructure) to call it a day. We had to shed some bloated contracts unfortunately, and many of whom are well liked or good players on the downside of their career. Positions of need as far as FA goes is Safety, DT, Edge, and maybe WR in that order. The draft is where we will be getting set for the future. Younger, faster, and at lower cost. If we can find some pennies in the couch we should be adding Armstead and a veteran Safety and be done.

Solid signing and well deserved. He looked great when he got action last season and was good enough to not need Lenny on the team after all.

They named their firstborn Beef Onweck Armstead, his wife’s childhood phone number was 716-420-6969, and they have never sullied their tastebuds with ranch ever in their life.

I mean, the Pats are a dumpster fire and the city of Jacksonville is trash. I’d live in Nashville too between those 3 choices lol

49 followers. Got his account November 2023. Don’t believe this for a second until someone with a reputation reports it.

this offseason has a lot of veteran defensive talent out there, and this draft class is not as deep in defensive players where we have need particularly (DT/Edge). Offenses is very stacked, so you settle for a few short contracts for vets on Defense, and try to load up on offensive talent. thats not to say there aren’t good Defense players to draft, but a lot of positions drop off talent-wise after the first 2 rounds.

I said this in another thread but Gabe really should have waited based on this contract lol

Gabe should have waited lol

Armstead would be a huge gain. Also makes WR far more likely the target at 28, so that’s always a plus. Start searching the couch for coins and let’s make it happen.

Front load that contract as much as possible. Next year they should have well over $100m to play with and that’s the year you pay JJ a crazy amount. Soften the hit the other years but while you can afford it you stack the deck and pay the kid. then again, this is the Vikings we are talking about…

Jets winning the offseason again
