  1. I've been enjoying all the Ravens drama personally. Allowing Lamar to hold the franchise hostage with his ridiculous contract demands and now grossly overpaying for OBJ is pretty comical. Lamar has left soo much money on the table by not getting a new deal after 3 years, and now he's screwing up the teams ability to reload for the future by holding them hostage in this negotiation. Now they make this desperate overreach for OBJ. The only thing I would find funnier than all of this is if they were to reach and overpay for Zeke.
  2. It's been covered @ length on Sports Radio. If the Packers wait til after June 1st to trade him they take less of a cap hit. The Jets feel the longer they wait, especially after the draft, the more the market dries up for the Packers to trade and hence lowers what they can receive in trade for him. Rodgers is basicly playing for the Jets or no one and everyone knows it. Plus he already knows Hacketts system. The alternative here being they cut him and get nothing and a dead money cap hit and he still signs with the Jets.
  3. I thought Shaq played well last year, especially as the season went on. He's a solid run defender. He's not gonna put up the big sack totals but, he sets the edge as well as anyone. +1 I like JP alot when healthy too, he definitely brings the juice. Hopefully he can stay healthy when we need him most.
  4. Im not sure this stat means a whole lot for all reasons already listed. I think maybe it does show that Beane is not infallable. He has hits and misses. As for Shakir he deserved more time simply because McKenzie should never have been out there, ever... I digress. I like Shakir and his potential and am rooting for him but hes a check down guy at this point. He has not shown any significant ability to get seperation yet. Sure he can sit in a soft zone as the 3rd checkdown, but I wonder how that would change if we had to rely on him as an every down slot guy. He'll be rotational again this year too. Go Bills!
  5. I never understood the hate for motor. Not everyone is going to be elite, but I thought he was a solid football player and likeable guy. Can't expect him to block DL's or LB's but I thought he did well in protection and was pretty elusive. His career stats say he can play ball. Get that money motor!
  6. I think the only question people on this board have; Is he going to be better than Isiah Hodgins would have been as a Bill this year?
  7. I'm not a cap wizard, but Id roll the dice on OBJ for 5+per. I'd offer him 3 years if he worked out well. 3 years... 25mil? Maybe some incentives or escalators. Guarantee like 10 of it with a way out after a year....something like that? Point being I would offer more than 3 years or much more than that neighborhood in total compensation. Id roll the dice though.
  8. The point isn't whether it's true or not, the point is some people just don't know when to keep their mouth shut, or make a polite non-statement, or heaven forbid throw your support behind the guy that kept your career alive. He really embodies this generation though; Me, me, me, I'm the victim here, you're all lessers, I'm the greatest, I owe thanks or humility to no one, oh an btw %^$&^%.
  9. The business side of football is cold for sure, but no one should feel sad for him. He's earned significant money and participated where most people can only dream of playing. Like the person, but glad to see the Bills move on. I'll still visit his restaurant if I make it down that way. 😋 Pretty epic burn if only it was meant to be. Isiah: Your Move BBB. Beane: Your cut. 🤐
  10. I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.
  11. In years past, payers like this would have left for less money than the Bills offered. Now we have players realizing their market value is soft and choosing to stay with a winning franchise. This is good and says the guys still feel close to winning.
  12. Dood is a beast and has been the heart and soul of this D since arrival. Welcome back Po!
  13. This is a stretch. He was good no question. He did not have a Hall of Fame Career, not even close.
  14. Good for him, we weren't going to pay him that, nor should we. Let's see who fills his spot now, wonder if Matt will start calling plays. I don't think the Bears will be bringing home the Lombardi anytime soon, so nbd, and @ least he's in the NFC.
  15. I don't think Hopkins and Diggs could exist together. Maybe for one year, but I just don't see both of these guys being satisfied competing with one another for targets.
  16. I'm not against the 27th, just haven't studied the board enough to know who falls, and or a sense of what Beane wants there. 2nd is a no brainer for me though. We def still have big questions @ MLB and on DL (Edmunds & Oliver), but I like Jeudy.
  17. Russ's noddle arm can't throw that far or that fast. Id give our 2nd without blinking.
  18. No one is saying he is overrated, he is rated exactly where he belongs, mediocre and middle of the pack. No one mentioned cutting him or trading him for a 6th or 7th rounder either. Saying STOP isn't exactly an argument, saying STOP, name calling and then making up some scenario that no one even mentioned is barely worth a response. Try again and tell me how he's worth a big contract. I'll go first and say we can draft another middle of the pack guy that will deliver the same if not better results than Oliver. Drafting said guy would also have him on a 5 year cost controlled rookie deal. Alternatively, we could overpay for a mediocre, middle of the pack guy AND have to radically restructure some contracts to get this to work and make him happy. Your turn, Go:
  19. He clearly has no self awareness. Most people in buffalo aren't even sure there's a long-term home for him here, yet he thinks he's done something to earn a big contract? Guy's like this test my fandom. If we can get a 3rd, take that to the bank and call it a robbery.
  20. He's a winner and could obviously do TV work post playing as well.
  21. Some of these guys are worse than teenage girls. Like me, don't like me , follow you, unfollow you, give me a break, it gets old.
  22. People have no idea how they'd react in a situation like that. It probably takes a few minutes to really process WTF just happened. He needs to be checked before it escalates into something worse. I have zero tolerance for uncivilized people in a modern civilized world. Animals like this make the world worse. I think women should minimally carry pepper spray everywhere they go, it would have handled this situation perfectly. It's unwarranted here, but it surprises me more women don't exercise their 2A also. I'm a fit middle aged man that exercises regularly and I do both. That said, I'm a big Kermit fan. He rises up and carries himself as a class act despite all this craziness around his life. He's a winner in and out of the game. Go Bills!
  23. Von has already mentioned his aspiration to become a GM some day. I don't see any issue with this, he's still recovering, if this keeps him engaged with football and the team great. This is all a part of culture building. The opposite would be to rebuff his approach and see what that does for his feelings about the team and the staff. It's a no brainer.
  24. Trust us enough to draft or sign us and pay us minimally (250+k league minimum?), but need a big brother to sleep in the same room as me? Tremaine was the Captain of the defense but ya know, he's young so go bunk up with another sweaty, smelly, gassy man. Good times. They say comaraderie, but they mean policing. It's an outdated policy and probably should go.
  25. Having to have a roommate is weird. When the day is over, you go your way, I'd prefer to go my own way. I can barely tolerate my wife in the room when I'm trying to sleep. Sleep is important, this would be a tough bridge to cross for me.
