I think it’d be wise to hang onto Winters.. we aren’t a team that is rebuilding.. we don’t need draft picks, we need as much firepower as we can get.. someone started a thread about trading Tre for two 1sts and I think that’s terribly silly.. we aren’t the Jacksonville Jaguars... we are a team that is contending for a championship.. if anything we’re a team that should be trading for players, as evidenced by the Stefon Diggs trade.. I think our Super Bowl window is just opening up now.. saturate this team with as much talent as possible... time to win is now..

There’s just so much to be positive about with this team that I don’t think an 80 page thread would do it justice.. I really think we should be in contention for a Super Bowl title.. Kansas City is obviously the biggest threat but I could see the Bills knocking off good teams like the 49ers and Ravens.. Unreal what Mr. Pegula has done in terms of putting the right management and coaching staff in place.. all comes down to Josh Allen.... and I think he is up to the task.. I’m excited and I’m impressed!

Well... I highly trust Bobby Johnson... we should rejoice over the fact that he is on our coaching staff... he is absolutely one of the best o-line coaches in the NFL... If he wants Ford at RG, I trust him... if he wants Ford at RT I’ll put my foot in my mouth and shut up..

He was very average last year.... but he flashed tremendous potential when it came to getting push in the run game.. if you put him at RG, nobody is going to get through him and no one will get around him.. ideal bodyguard for Josh Allen.. monster run blocker which is what he does best..

He’s not overly long and he hasn’t shown me in my humble opinion that he is nimble enough to play outside.. I think he is built like a guard..... and a very good one at that...

I don’t think he has the feet for RT.. I see him as an average RT and an upper echelon prospect at RG.. He is extremely powerful and strong at the point of attack but not overly athletic.. If Williams beat out Nsekhe at RT, that’s a good sign that we should be good there.... if we follow McD’s mantra that each player should be their best self, Ford needs to kick inside where he could potentially dominate and be elite..

I think they wouldn’t like that idea.. Football teams are too secretive for that to happen..

Ford has All Pro potential at RG.. like 5-6x Pro Bowl talent at guard.. no surprise to see him doing well there.. no surprise at all..

Can we split it into half day threads? Daily threads require more reading and I don’t have the attention span to get through it.

Tre is my favorite player on the team not named Josh Allen.. Deserves to reset the CB market, he’s worth it.. ✊?

Fred Jackson was overrated and took way to many snaps away from Beastmode. If it weren’t for him Marshawn would have stayed in Buffalo.

I think you hand the ball off to Singletary and Moss and let them pound the rock. We have two young promising backs, no need to constipate the RB room. Singletary can probably handle 250 touches or more and Moss could probably handle 300 or thereabout and they’re also a lot cheaper. Unless there is an injury or something I feel we are in a good spot at RB. I saw on NFL.com that they had Singletary as the 16th best RB in the NFL and that’s as a rook. He could easily crack the top 10 this year and Moss won’t be far behind him.

Yes. Good insight... agree with everything.

No

Josh Norman looked to be beating out Levi Wallace for that #2 CB job. All reports I’ve read said he was looking very good.

I think it makes a lot of sense... but it also suggests that the Dolphins are still 2-3 years away from competing.. Fitz isn’t going to lead your team to the playoffs but he is one of the smartest QBs in the NFL and it also allows the Dolphins to nurse Tua to full health and give him time to understand the playbook.. Question is, how much time does Tua have before he is the starter? Is it Week 2? Week 6? Week 10? Doubt Fitz makes it through the full season.

Right, but a Josh Allen thread or a Stefon Diggs thread or an AJ Epenesa thread makes a ton of sense as well. I think it’s a brilliant idea to combine all updates and subjects into a player specific thread. I would gladly read through 80 pages of Josh Allen updates or Ed Oliver updates.. No need for a new thread every day on one of them.. Just post any new updates in that player’s specific thread. I think that’s highly organized and people would gladly read through page after page of that..

I’ve been waiting for that.. If I had to guess he’ll be paid as a top 5 coach.. I’m assuming it’ll be between $8M and $10M, which I think is more than fair and appropriate.

I think a daily thread can carry on more steam than a weekly thread. However, if there is a hot topic on Josh Allen or Stefon Diggs etc Those daily training camp updates should be posted in that player specific thread. No need for a continuous daily thread on X player, just post that in one thread. Everything else gets its own daily thread.

Probably a bit of a hyperbole on my part but there is some truth said in jest. It has happened before in the past and not just with training camp threads but by merging likewise threads together when there are nuances that differentiate the two from each other. Most folks aren’t going to patiently read through 80 page threads. I think small concise threads that are short and sweet but straight to the point will lead to greater discussions on this board.. I’ve had a really hard time engaging in discussions here lately, the board just seems to be really backed up and constipated. I don’t think merging 100 threads on a 100 different topics creates organization, I think it creates disorganization and chaos. I like it when there’s 10 different hot topics I can read through on the front page instead of merging all these subjects into 1 thread where I have the darnest time discussing topics that interest me. I don’t see how that approach is more organized.. I think it’s constricting discussion..

I think daily threads make the most sense and would create a lot more traffic to the boards.. Nobody wants to read through 30 pages of garbage to get their daily Bills fix.. I could see weekly threads being a comfortable medium but one training camp thread for the entirety of training camp completely constipates the board. Especially when nobody can stay on topic and you have to sift through page after page of nonsense to find maybe one nugget of information that is pertinent to the topic at hand.. I love the Bills but I don’t have the time nor interest to read through 80 pages of BS to get my Bills fix.. I’ll get my news elsewhere.

I do think it would be a good idea for Terry & Kim to ask Mr. Beane for advice on whom to hire and what to look for. He may have valuable insight in that regard. Maybe there’s some universal parallels that could translate over into the hockey world...

Winters is a Jets castoff.... their line really isn’t that good. Ford was projected as a first round pick by many and we had to trade up and get him early in the second round. Then you have to factor in that Ford started for us last year so there is more continuity on the line. This is his second year under Bobby Johnson so he has more familiarity with the audibles and blocking formations and playbook. Ford is also 23 and Winters is 29. Ford has 3 more years on his deal, Winters has 1. Ford is clearly not a RT, he is too slow, but he has so much power in his game that he’d be a natural at guard. We are a team built to win now but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t develop our younger players because after all we are still a very young team.

You really think Winters would be a better guard than Ford? It’s not like Ford has zero experience and once again he has a very good pedigree to grow and be an above average guard. Winters was released by the Jets...
