There will be a more cuts post June 1.

Defenses are FAR more advanced and complex today, and they have way more speed to keep up with stuff like that. That is why the league is trending back to bigger personnel and the run game, because they can take advantage of the smaller, faster defenses that have evolved over the last couple of decades.

The rates of concussions in girls soccer is alarming. They have by far the highest rates outside of football. My sister played in high school and got three really bad concussions that she still has negative affects from today, 10 years later. I played soccer but never had any concussions that I know of.

Andrew Van Ginkel gets paid. One year $23 Million extension
MJS replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
Why did they bother to guarantee 97% of the money and not just 100%? -
Interesting tidbit??.....Bills select 3 team captains in this draft....
MJS replied to Special K's topic in The Stadium Wall
That is interesting. I bet a lot of players that make it to the NFL, especially in the higher rounds, were captains because they were just the best players on their teams. But it is definitely something that the Bills value. They pay attention to culture and lockerroom impact. -
49ers sign Kittle to 4-yr 76.4M contract extension.
MJS replied to Gregg's topic in The Stadium Wall
Two straight 1,000 yard seasons for him. He is clearly elite, plus a fan favorite. I think he is pretty solidified there. But yeah, I would have done a 2 year deal instead of 4 years. That's a little risky. -
Defensive line after Camp, then after suspended players return?
MJS replied to Mikie2times's topic in The Stadium Wall
DT seems pretty straightforward. Oliver, Jones, Sanders, Walker, and Carter are all pretty safe. I think Ogunjobi is not going to be retained after his suspension. But maybe he bumps Carter or Jones? I think that is a stretch. DE is a little more interesting. Rousseau, Bosa, Jackson, Solomon, and Hoecht (with his valuable versatility) are locks. I could see Epenesa traded with a post June 1st designation, and that would actually free up some cap this year. And I could see some teams being interested, although we'd only get a 4th or 5th rounder. Yeah, there isn't a downside to keeping him through his suspension in case of injury or if someone like Carter or Jones are just really playing poorly. If not, let him walk. -

MJS replied to Gregg's topic in The Stadium Wall
He's a great player, but already 31. We'll see if he can keep it up into his 30's. I sure hope Kincaid can turn into one of those elite TE's. -
It's not about that. It's just that they needed to prioritize the defense this year. I'm sure they would love to have added a couple of really good receivers. But resources are limited. The Bills have virtually no cap space. They are completely tapped out and will need to restructure or cut/trade someone to get some cap space just for in-season roster management. You can't address everything. Next year, they will focus on the offense.

I'd feel terrible about that, because those were clearly the biggest needs. Far bigger than receiver, in my opinion.

Is there an NFL team with a weaker WR group than the Bills?
MJS replied to Pete's topic in The Stadium Wall
Kincaid needs to have a breakout year. Him and Josh were not on the same page. That needs to improve. He has yet to live up to his 1st round draft status. Part of that is on Josh, though. Many of Kincaid's targets were not quality targets. And for the money we are paying Samuel, he needs to be a lot better as well. -

MJS replied to Pete's topic in The Stadium Wall
There are also a few teams who have one really good receiver and then not much besides that. I struggle to put teams like that over the Bills. It is great to have a guy, but you certainly want more depth. So, teams like the Cardinals, Cowboys, and maybe the Jaguars fit that. If the Bills added one receiver who was a legitimate #1 guy, they would be up there with the best in the entire league, because they do have a few quality guys like Palmer, Shakir, and potentially Coleman. Palmer as the #2 and Shakir in the slot would be awesome. Let's hope they draft a WR high next year and he is just a great receiver. -
What positions we prioritize in the draft: Part 2
MJS replied to Mikie2times's topic in The Stadium Wall
Teams draft according to need. They just do. It should be pretty obvious that the teams who draft a lot of offense are the ones who are weak there. Same with the defense. So, if a team isn't drafting a lot of one position, either they are good there or they don't see the value. I agree with you for the most part. It seems there is an inverse correlation. For instance, the Bills have one of the best olines in the league and have for the past couple of years. Should they be drafting oline high? Obviously not. The Bills will plummet in OL draft capital rankings in this current stretch of years. This doesn't mean they don't value the offensive line.
