DOME!!!!!!!!!

I don't understand why Marcus Murphy isn't more involved he's averaging 5.5ypc. He needs more carries.

3yrs 48 million fully guaranteed. That would be my offer to Bell. Dump Shady and Ivory, keep Marcus Murphy and draft another RB in the 3rd or 4th. Take that first pick and trade down, collect many picks and draft 4-5 linemen. I think you'd see our offense take a jump. Allen would easily put up 4,000 yds in an offense like that.

Correct. Hopefully we both agree that LeVeon is an elite talent. He could be our Todd Gurley. See what he is really worth in FA, may be less than he wants or he may get what he wants. He is the premier FA next year.

It's up to the player I'm sure. Doubt they'd say no to Lorax or Meatball. Kyle can still play. Already has 5 sacks. Not bad.

That's how much elite or potentially elite skill players go for. Bell will get less than Sammy even though Bell out produced him in every category. We got 91 million, we have the cap to play around with. LeVeon Bell would instantly upgrade our offense in a big way. Draft OL often and early. Look into WR/RB Tavon Austin and WR John Brown.

Need to add a couple of skill guys. A pass catching RB could get him 200ypg, he's at about 160ypg now? He's hitting big throws, need to get in the habit of 1 yd passes to McCoy for 10yds. That'll also spike his completion % and move the chains. Our RBs need to be used as a receivers if they can't run behind this OL. Can Murphy catch?

Look how much Sammy Watkins got, you wouldn't pay LeVeon Bell that? I would. Bell would probably match Sammy's receiving yards while rushing for another 1,100.

Knowing what we know now? Is Shady really part of our plans next year? 426 rushing 3.3ypc 25 rec 198yds 7.9avg How do you guys feel about it? Should we have taken the picks?

I think Allen can be a 4,000 yard passer. Think he can throw for 27-28 TDs IF we upgrade our skill positions and OL. He needs a pass catching RB and as good of a WR you can find in FA. Guys that can take 1yd throws and convert them into 1st downs, easy throws, easy completions and easy yards. Rack up stats.

They could use somebody behind Lorax. If we draft defense high i hope it's a DE/OLB that can come in and be a punisher. Fournette ran all over Milano and Edmunds. We could use a guy like Chase Winovich to deliver killshots on some of the bigger backs we face while also adding some pass rush.

Bring him back if he wants to play, let Kyle make that decision.

I'm cool with that.

If he could earn 18 million if he triggered certain incentives I'm sure no one will offer more. Gives him time to cash in a second time.

Dude.... We have 91 million. Look at what Sammy Watkins got! I'd rather have LeVeon Bell for that kind of money. A weapon is a weapon and Bell can hurt you on the ground or in the air. Give him a 3 year deal that is heavily incentive driven that we can get out of in 2. He's the biggest free agent on the market.

Should be able to do everything you want even with Bell. Would also like John Brown and I think it'd be wise to overpay for him too. This is a good draft to need OL, we could add 3-4 starters if we want. Not impressed with the FA OL crop. I think we'd have multiple draft picks for defense too.

Those are his career averages, you could argue that Antonio Brown may take some production away from LeVeon Bell too. Here he gets all the focus. Obviously we have to fix the OL but we have a bazillion draft picks in a deep draft. Elgton Jenkins is a better prospect than Eric Wood was coming out. Trade down and grab him. Take a couple OL in the second round too.

FA: 1.) LeVeon Bell, RB to 3yrs 54m. 2.) John Brown, WR 4yr 32m 3.) Matt Barkley, QB 2yr 4m 4.) John Miller, OG 1yr 1m 5.) EJ Gaines, CB2 2yrs 8m Draft: Trade down 1.) Elgton Jenkins, OC, Mississippi State 2.) Bryce Love, RB, Stanford 2.) David Edwards, RT, Wisconsin 3.) Beau Benzschawel, OG, Wisconsin 4.) TE 4.) Defense 5.) Defense 5.) Defense 6.) Defense 6.) Defense 7.) WR 7.) WR

He'd generate more receiving yards, first downs and touchdowns than Zay Jones. Definitely be our leading receiver. 75 catches minimum and it'd be easy 1 yard throws for Allen. He's also a great RB too. Somebody you can build a team around. If he wants 18 million, give him 18 million. Pay him what he wants, 400 touches a year minimum.

His production is his production, Bills could use that kind of production. Look at WR in FA, it's a bare cupboard! LeVeon Bell can get you 75+ receptions, most of them for 1st downs. Very little at WR in FA. Bell could easily give Allen 800-1,000 passing yards. Easily. Keep Murphy, draft one, everyone else needs to go.

Good point.

Wanted us to draft Allen, stand by that. Better than Sam Darnold and Lamar Jackson. Bills made the right pick. Barkley is the perfect mentor for Allen.

I'd like to see the RBs used as receivers more, they aren't picking up yards on the ground but how about through the air? Make Allen's life easier, move the chains and pickup easy yards. Great way to boost his numbers.

Between Allen and Bell, I think we'd have a top 5 run offense. And once again Bell would easily give Allen 1,000 more yards passing guaranteed. Bell's career average for receiving yards combined with Allen's average passing ypg this season would be about 200 yards a game or 3,267 yards per season. 100 easy completions, his accuracy % would up considerably. And lots of yards for 1 yard throws for easy first downs and easy yards. 3,200 yards would be Allen's bottom.

Bell is better than Gurley. Bell is like Thurman Thomas.
