  1. His attempts to be a Tina Turner impersonator have come up a bit short.
  2. Keys to the game: 1. Stay healthy. 2. See #1
  3. Nothing personal against Love, seems like a good kid. But I'm tired of seeing Green Bay with franchise QB after franchise QB.iys their time to suffer a bit😂😂
  4. You would be surprised. Bad OL play is a problem around the league. Bothe Russell Bodine and Marshall Newhouse were trades for picks..all be it very late round 2 drafts down the road. But it is plausible. I can also see a team trading a guy the know won't make their team in a player for player deal for an OL we know won't make our. Sometimes you see that kind of trade the week before the last preseason game so teams can basically get a quick look at a different player.
  5. He is, but can also see them giving him a quarter or less and Barkley play the rest in the last one. Can't recall Keenum's snap count in PS game 3 last year but just off memory the Bills seem to play their 3rd QB a lot in the final one
  6. Yeah, if I'm betting I would guess we see him for a series or 2 against the Steelers in the 2md preseason game. Then the last game will be the Matt Barkley show lol
  7. It's definitely a risk, however sometimes you trade an Eli Harold and wind up with Ryan Bates. Or trade a Kelvin Sheppard and come away with a Jerry Hughes.
  8. I project that he will get a lot of hype because of his Fantasy Football value, but I don't think it will translate to on the field success. At least not this season.
  9. Well, can never be too sure how things would have played out but I think Dodson was ahead already in the competition. My personal feeling is that they "hoped" Bernard or Spector would have taken the job away...but Dodson was the safe bet to at least start the season at MLB due to his familiarity. If Bernard is missing a good length of time my only question is: Does Spector do anything to put himself back in the conversation?
  10. "We won't be able to afford him next year if he breaks out" Yes, we will. Just taking a shallow look on OTC shows the Bills will have the ability to create almost $75M in cap available through restructures. Subtract the $25M it shows we are already in the red and that's $50M. Now, I'm not advocating that they should do ALL the restructures available...nor will they. But that's what's there. Add in that there are also some salary cap casualties (Hines at 5M for instance) next year and yes, Davis is affordable. "Just let him walk and take the comp pick" I am team comp pick in most situations. But for Davis at this time it doesn't make sense to me. I place his value in the same category as MVS and Allen Lazard. Lazard just signed with the Jets at 4/44M. That sounds about right for Davis prior to this season. (though SPOTRAC has his value slightly higher at 12.4M estimation) As it sits right now that Lazard contract is projected to net the Packers a 5th round comp pick. Now, granted if he stays healthy and some other team thinks he's a #1 type guy and throws Christian Kirk type money at him (4/72M resulting in 3rd round comp pick) then that changes the equation. Let the season play out Right now Davis is, at least to me, a playmaker. What he isn't is consistent. Be it due to injury or drops...he still has to show some semblance of being a consistent playmaker. Yes he has the potential for a great game every week (see Steelers last year). He also has the potential to disappear. IF I'm not mistaken, Davis's contract put him as the 70th highest paid WR this year. That's great value for the Bills. It takes 2 to make a thing go right Easy for fans to sit back and say "git er done"..but the reality is the deal has to make sense for both sides. Sometimes guys wait and bet on themselves (Edmunds may be an example) others they take what is perceived as slightly less to get financial security sooner (Oliver may be an example). In any event, Beane expressed desire early in the off-season to extend 2 guys. Oliver and Davis. One is done. On the other hand, Davis's comments didn't seem like he was in a rush. Those can be found in the article below. https://www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bills/2023/07/buffalo-bills-receiver-reveals-mothers-message-ahead-of-contract-year.html Personal choice: I want Gabe to earn big bucks this year. If that money comes from Buffalo next year or another team...I don't mind either way. If Gabe earns himself a Kirk type contract that most likely means he had a huge year for Buffalo this year and that bodes very well for the Bills Super Bowl run this year.
  11. Cunningham almost decapitated...WOW
  12. I never thought I'd say this...but I miss Case Keenum. Hopefully Kyle Allen looks good Saturday 😂
  13. I kinda want to see how Keenum looks.
  14. Gotta see him stay reasonably healthy first. That's my biggest reservation. The only way I see it making sense is if it's a low guarantee deal that gives him incentives. However, I wouldn't think that would appeal to him...just my guess.
  15. Yes, it was a funny set of circumstances. Also, later in this thread I actually found and posted the article that talks about his charges being dropped.
  16. Ok then. The simple fact that this tweet in question was interpreted differently by you and I as well as a third different take from another poster and oh hey, there even was someone else with questions about the clarity on that Tweet (see below) really confirm my opinion that perhaps greater context was needed. I made one statement about the tweet and then responded to people that said something in response to me. I'm sorry, is that something odd to do on a message board? I actually even in one of them (that you quoted yourself) acknowledged that someone else's interpretation was very plausible as well. I'm always open to changing my outlook when further perspective is offered. I've also made it a POINT to say in just about every response that I like Ajay. You can even look back for verification on that. He's done...for the most part...an excellent job. Heaven forbid someone point out that perhaps some further detail would be nice in as you described it "one single Tweet". Make you a deal. I'll "check myself" when you "get over yourself". And with that, I'm done.
  17. I actually like what Houston has done this off season. Starting off by bringing in Robert Woods. Yes, he's aging and declining in skills, however he brings some leadership and experience. Both good for a rookie QB to lean on. They also have Nico Collins and Metchie at WR...young guys that can grow with him. Signed Dalton Shultz at TE. Big target there. They brought in Singletary to compliment Pierce and have the ability to have a deep run game to help take pressure off. Not to mention bringing in Case Keenum who is a long term vet QB to help him in the QB room. Houston is actually my sleeper pick to be the team that comes out of basically nowhere to make a Wild Card run this year.
  18. Whoa there, guy..."check yourself"? Look, I respect you as a poster and have had a lot of good interaction with you here...but really dude that's some weak response right there. I point out that I like Ajay. He's done a great job...however there are times that his tweets lack context of any sort. Case in point is this one he just posted a few minutes ago. Yea, that's a lot of context there. As per the original tweet I referred to about Isabella...there was nothing "proven" about anything...which is why other people have other theories about it as well. Wow, people having different ideas about what the context of a tweet means on a message board...how weird. At this point I'm going to respectfully ask that if you wish to continue the conversation please move it to DMs so we don't clog up the daily thread with this type back and forth.
  19. And I agree that is another plausible way to read into the tweet as well. Unfortunately, the original tweet really lacks any substantial context and is left open to individual interpretation.
  20. The problem here is this. While I like Ajay and appreciate his reports he's had a few times where he tweets something live and then has to contradict it later. That's the issue with minute by minute reporting. At the time he tweeted the first, we have no idea what was happening on the far end of the field. Were there WR drill going on and he wasn't a part? Was he the only human being shagging kicks? Was he back there taking kicks for Bass's benefit who may have been working on something? All unknown. The space between the first Isabella tweet and the second was 21 minutes. That's a lifetime of things that can change in a practice setting.
  21. I think it means Isabella is no longer working with the WRs. I read that as Isabella is working only with KR...not Isabella is the ONLY one working as KR.
  22. You know, when he signed I had Murray penciled in as a likely PS guy. Then the Hines injury happened and I moved him to making the roster. With Harris nursing knees soreness....call me crazy but I think this opens the door for Murray a bit to jump Harris on the depth chart. Wouldn't shock me if the old man ends up Cook's direct backup.
  23. The only time I've actually seriously wondered if a game or season was rigged was the season of the Saints Super Bowl win. Yup, they had an all-timer at QB. But this is a team that hadn't made a Bowl before and never made one since only making and winning it off the heels of Hurricane Katrina ripping New Orleans apart. Now I have no evidence to point to, just seems a bit too coincidental to me.
  24. Beane has a past history of finding trade partners for OL. With that in mind I'm thinking Greg Mancz is a possibility.
  25. Disagree. It could be and I've seen it successfully argued in a court of law that getting behind the wheel while intoxicated IS intent to harm. As would be driving 156MPH on a public road.
