Winters and Long both played recently for the Jets - FWIW, my Jets fan pal says between the two, Winters is clearly the better player. The Jets release was almost entirely financially motivated - no way were the Jets paying Winters 7.3 million.
-
Clearly he arrived at camp out of shape. No Feliciano coupled with lack of faith in Long is an alarming situation.This is why the Bills acted so quickly on Winters' release. Otherwise there was no urgency to sign him. And they do save 2.3 million by releasing him, which is not chump change given the cap uncertainty.

several Bills players have also worked out with AB this offseason. Given his past history, while I would be wary of bringing AB into the locker room - I can understand players looking to win wanting him in their locker room. Esp. QBs who have worked out with him and see his ability and connection with them first hand. This has nothing to do with Wonderlic scores. I too used to think LJ cannot throw. While I believe JA's ceiling to be higher than LJ, might I remind you that no one trick pony who can be easily figured out can become league wide MVP. FWIW, the guy definitely has at least two tricks - he can juke and he can throw.

NFL divisional bubbles - 2020 season hypothesis
IgotBILLStopay replied to rayray808's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
each bubble under the two division bubble plan will be only a bit larger than the nba bubble. so logistics can be managed. it wii be difficult but not impossible (olympics comparison off by an order of magnitude). i do agree with being wary of Belicheat in a bubble lol and NFLPA will change its mind if the alternative means players stop getting paychecks. -
NFL divisional bubbles - 2020 season hypothesis
IgotBILLStopay replied to rayray808's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
nice thought. i too have also been toying with bubble formats and came up with 4 two-division bubbles. That will give a 14 game season - and have three qualifiers from each bubble giving a 12 team postseason. There will be about 450 players in each bubble - closer to nba bubble size -
You knew the SEC wouldn’t cancel their season
IgotBILLStopay replied to NewEra's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Feel bad for the AAC - in many ways it is more Power 5 than ACC minus Clemson. And given they get lower TV revenue, these match ups with P-5 were critical to their SOS and financial viability. More importantly, their COVID protocols are no worse than the P-5. Maybe they can have some revenue by being the one in the ACC's 10+1 or the Big 12 can fill the holes in its schedule by scheduling a game or two with the AAC. -
Revisiting Clowney & a Look at Logan Ryan
IgotBILLStopay replied to Wizard's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My first thought is that at this stage 20+ million is too much - so we should think about these players only as contingencies. I would seriously look at Clowney if we have a drop out / NFI / injury to one of our DEs. Same for Logan Ryan. Ryan is actually a very nice scheme fit - he is an elite zone cover corner but very mediocre in man coverage. I am quite happy with our CB depth - but if there is a drop out / injury etc. Ryan is certainly worth a look. I also think at this stage Clowney is not going to get 13-14 million and Ryant is not going to get 7-8 million - so the fact they will be significantly cheaper will only make em more attractive. https://touchdownwire.usatoday.com/2020/06/16/the-nfls-best-cornerbacks-in-zone-coverage/3/ -

Fair question. The same link says the following: -

looks ok in this video - so likely not sthing serious -
Hyde & Poyer. The Best? These guys think so
IgotBILLStopay replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
nice to see stats backing what the eyes have been seeing for the past few years - Poyer's contract will surely rank among the top steals in all of football -
[Edited] Beasley returns to Active list
IgotBILLStopay replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It can be non-football "illness"as well Edit: It is back related - so clearly non-football injury not illness -

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-football_injury_and_illness FYI SInce there is a separate Covid-19 list - this may not be covid related. Edit: It is back related - so clearly not illness -
Ha! tried to guess all three from title before clicking and got all three - except I added Gaines as well to battle #1. He got hurt last year - so couldnt really compete - but he also has experience with the McD / Frazier zone coverage and performed well. He might be the dark horse. Combining these three with White and Taron Johnson, I feel good about our CB position and strength.

Star Lotulelei opting out for 2020
IgotBILLStopay replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Actually I thought Beane said they picked Epenesa because of his versatility and ability to play inside. https://www.buffalorumblings.com/2020/6/22/21245074/versatility-a-highlight-of-buffalo-bills-defensive-linemen I dont when McD said he wouldnt play Epenesa inside - do you have a link? If so, it still was likely before the Lotuleilei opt out - which changes things no? -
Star Lotulelei opting out for 2020
IgotBILLStopay replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
dont forget Epenesa who is pretty decent in rushing from the inside. I am sure he will see some time at DT. -
Star Lotulelei opting out for 2020
IgotBILLStopay replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Epenesa pick is looking better and better. He is versatile enough to line up inside next to Harry / Oliver / Jefferson -
it is not all bad news for Belichik - after netting a bargain in Newton (which Newton consented to likely due to Pats’ cap space issues) Belichik clears cap space both with the Hernandez / Brown settlements and with the Hightower opt out - now he has money to sign whichever bargain he finds - maybe Clowney for under 10 mill a year. They now have 17-18 mill in 2020 cap space. Nigel Bradham might be in play for the Pats now clearly if the settlements had happened before Newton had signed, he woulda asked for more - but NE waited after Newton signed to settle.

DB Isaiah Brown first Bill on Covid Quarantine
IgotBILLStopay replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
the hoodie from NE will sign him for a week to hv a peek at bills defensive schemes -
Jets made out like bandits. Adams is great but .... TWO career interceptions / disgruntled / looking for a brinks truck / final year of rookie deal. silver lining 1 - clearly jets are worse in the short term and lose another year when Darnold is signed for cheap. And JA / Diggs says thanks to Joe Douglas silver lining 2 - Gase is firmly in control for the next few years since Jets are in rebuilding mode

Josh Allen year 3 comparisons

I'm thinking Dak may be the floor here. I still doubt he will throw for 4500+ yards, but I'll just focus on the W-L baby!. -
Charges against Ed Oliver dismissed
IgotBILLStopay replied to FluffHead's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ha! Glad our faith in EO was justified. BTW, I am pretty sure he was also never clocked going 80 in a 45 zone by the police though there were reports of that. -
Alexander open to returning to Bills
IgotBILLStopay replied to twist_to_open's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
always open to the idea as it is an extra option and theory says options are valuable. but he was a tad slow last year and the young ones are ready to take the next step. so play it by ear - if we hv injuries or our lbs are not performing well and need a steady guiding hand, bring him back by all means.
