After thinking about this signing a bit. I don't mind it at all. I don't like Bosa as a person (from what I've seen) at all. Just not my cup of tea. But as a player, he can still be a force and I'm looking forward to seeing him in game action with the Bills. I'm mentally prepared to see his name on the injury list most of the season. I accept that he will miss a few games most likely. As long as those aren't in the playoffs, I'm good with it. If he can be available, reasonably healthy and have a nice post season for the Bills, then I'll like the signing. If he misses a few games in the middle of the year, so be it. I do wish they would have been able to get him on a lower value contract or had a team option for year two, but what's done is done, it's not my cash and it's up to them to work it into the books and still bring in some good players.

Mixed feelings. Bosa is a force when healthy but he hasn't been healthy. Maybe using him in the rotation and saving the snaps he sees for the playoffs helps. It's a slight overpay from the "less then $10M" offers that the 49ers and Dolphins were making...but if he grabs 10-12 sacks and a ton of pressure I'm ok with it. All in all this is going to be a wait and see signing. If he plays 14 games shows out and is a factor in the playoffs it's a steal.

Based on what I'm seeing from many of the CB contracts lately it looks like a lot of one year $4M-$6M deals handed out today. I think Rasul thought his market would be more No proof but I believe he was looking for that $3/$30Mish type handed out yesterday. I think in a few days he will take a low-ball one year deal and try again next season.

Very popular in the locker room as well. Does a lot of little things. This is the kind of player you that helps on the field and not the box score, so a lot of fans think he's a wasted roster spot. If they wanted competition, don't use a pick. You can find a quality young FB as an UDFA.

Well being Samuel isn't even on the roster I'll rule that one out. I'm gonna say someone that gets cut after the draft.

The thing I do like about trading Cook is whoever trades for him would likely give him a nice new fat contract as part of the deal. A trade gets us something in return as well as some say so over where he ends up (someplace like Dallas over someplace like KC or NE perhaps) and we avoid losing a good weapon to a rival real ala Barkley to the Eagles

Absolutely. And if they don't take someone late, scoop up a priority FA RB instead. Keep the pipeline full so you aren't forced into keeping Cook if he suddenly decides he wants 18 or 19...

Davis strikes me as the kind of RB that gets better with more involvement. I don't think he's a "committee back". I don't think it was a coincidence that his best game came from him being the lead dog and no Cook on the field. Some guys just need to stay in the game to produce. If Cook leaves this year or next I don't think production will drop.

The way I can see it... We have our entire RB room back from last year (Cook, Johnson, Davis) plus Evans and Gore fighting for a PS spot IMO. To me this means they don't have to force a RB pick. But if someone falls and the value is there late in the draft they can grab him. I like it.

I just finished looking at the 27 page "Bills sign Mack Hollins thread. I'd say it was about 70-30 for the we don't want him thread. Until the last 5-10 pages. It's hysterical.

12 pages over a guy this time last year nobody cares about or wanted😂😂 This board would have melted the day Bruce, Thurman and Andre were cut... 😂

We cut him. So doesn't fold into the comp formula.

Bad post. But Hall of Fame worthy thread😂😂

Panthers sign Sam Martin, P.

Ah Warwick Davis! What a legend!

And in his part time he's trying to rid of the golf course of a gopher. NOT GOLFERS

Not sure. They may have had pork....

If every player Josh complimented publicly were retained our WR room would still have Diggs, Tanner Gentry and Jake Kumrow. Could be Johnson isn't ready to sign and is waiting to see what trickles in. The business side flows both ways

He tries. I don't think he'll ever make it. Seems to have some anger issues as well. Let's see how that plays out

Didn't go down either Johnson and Evans have been on the same preseason roster for the last 2 years. This move is more competition for a PS spot than a roster spot/game day role IMO. And insurance if Johnson does move on. It doesn't prevent them from bringing Johnson back as well. I do think what's telling is Beane is already on to possible PS players than actual meaningful FAs.

He makes the preseason a bit more fun to watch. Then he's gone. It's a tradition unlike any other...

That's the one where Will Smith is also a relationship expert too, right?

Someone still using AOL?

My point remains. People have free will and will take job offers for many various reasons. Maybe after a few years in Philly he's sick of dealing with the cold. Maybe he likes the tax rate better in Arizona. Maybe he drove through the desert at sunset and was blown away by the sight (which if you have never had the opportunity, I recommend putting on your bucket list. Breathtaking.) Maybe there are some players here he doesn't get along with and would rather not be teammates with. Who knows. Maybe Buffalo had a competitive offer and he just wanted something different. We don't know and likely won't know. Yes more times than not it comes down to cash. It's like that in most job offers. But there are other factors where if things are close matter more than others. Maybe at this point he wants guaranteed nicer weather over the possibility of winning another Super Bowl.
