I'm all for it. Think he'd sign for under 15 million?

Numbers can look different depending on how you present them. Epenesa has played half a season more games than Bosa the last two years and barely has more sacks. Tell me Bosa misses too much time and I'll say I get it. Tell me he's washed and has nothing left I'm not so sure. Not saying I'm right but if we don't draft someone or make a real move I wouldn't be upset if down the road in free agency we bring in Bosa on a one year deal (like we did Floyd) and see what he has left.

Starks and Emmanwori were both gone in the first and Barron and Watts were gone by pick 40 when I ran the simulator. I like Mukuba but was suprised how fast safeties were coming off the board.

Wanted a RB in the middle rounds but he got taken so I ended up with this.

How many has a Buffalo player had since McDermott came here? I can think of one and he was a one year rental. That said there's no question he's missed a lot of time. Seems to be the biggest concern most people have.

Show me where on the field salary makes Jackson a better player. Elam makes more than either of them so by your standard he must be pretty good.

Garrett and AJ is better than Groot and AJ. Groot is also probably going to want 25 plus million so no matter what happens we're going to be paying a DE a lot of money. I don't think AJ is someone we could package to help get Garrett here and per the video I posted earlier Groot has already been mentioned.

Last two seasons he's played he allowed better than 100 QB rating when targeted which is as bad as Hamlin. At least Hamlin can tackle.

This sounds spot on.

I love Groot but ................. Trade Groot instead of resigning him, restructure Miller to play with Garrett or cut him altogether, and the cap is getting raised by 22 (?) million dollars.

The fact that Jackson seems like a much better option than Elam is just sad. Jackson is the CB equivalent of Hamlin at safety, prove me wrong.

Remove the really expensive guy part and how do you feel about it? The age/injury history is a legit concern but everything points to him getting paid Leonard Floyd type money which is probably half or less than what we will pay Groot. On a one year deal there is little to no concern for dead cap. The focus would be on winning that year and could he stay healthy.

I actually LOL'd.

I agree with all of this. Unfortunately my answer would be less about speed and more about being a technician. Diggs wasn't a burner but he was a technician. We could use that again. Size and contested catches seems to be the in lieu of type answer. Cooper seemed like he should have been that answer. Maybe we resign him and he gets it done. It would be nice to have a WR who stacks a DB and walks away from him in a way that scares defenses. Also it would be nice to have a player with that kind of speed who actually plays and isn't just sitting on the bench week in and week out.

My question is in what world are we going to line a "speed" wr up outside with an opportunity to just out run the defender? Not because it wouldn't be nice or to our advantage but because we love to run the ball and block with our outside WR's so we rarely line up anyone out there with that kind of speed. If it's 3rd and 3 in most places on the field we're probably going to have Hollins and some other big body out there. They actually started mixing Samuels in once in a while and getting something out of him. Maybe that's a start.
