I'm always like a broken record, that the OLinemen are much more important than RBs. And well, the pay really shows that. Still, Cook has so often the ball in his hands, he must feel somewhat frustrated that CBs and WRs are paid so much more!

What's with the Bosa dislike? Max Crosby and Garrett were not available anymore. And a one year 12M is low risk high reward. And he is good against the RUN too. With the two new players - after their 6 week suspensions - they should FINALLY be able to be a decent team against the run. And that will help everything else. Including time of possession for JA17 and the offense.

Good riddance to Diggs, and now it makes beating the Patriots even sweeter instead of a 'meh' type of game, but he WAS a leader the first two-three years with the Bills. Everywhere he goes he eventually sours and pouts, but not at first.

Yeah, a fall from grace for a star NFL QB But... let's put this in perspective. It's more than most lottery winners make, and he gets to play NFL football.

Agree with it all but Coleman has to prove himself Ty should nb used more. He's a RB as good as any receiver for catching balls. That screams problematic for defenses if a LB is lined up with him man to man.

The Chiefs, Bills and Ravens sure proved you can win without elite WRs. The Bengals go the opposite route. I think it will fail badly, but it is interesting nonetheless. I don't mind teams having unique angles... but I sure prefer what the Bills are doing ha ha. BTW that's why I have been excited from the signings. The Bills have a real good OLine, and now the DLine could be a strength too. I much prefer that to what the Bengals - and Dolphins - are doing.

Dude, stop choosing misery. I was HYPED for these signings so far. Superbowl smell in March! Of course the corner situation is really worrisome, and TWO suspensions at once is crazy, but you really expected Beane to solve everything in week 1 of FA? A lot of time left till September.

As if PED use wasn't super widespread i nthe NFL. No need to single out anyone... not caught yet ha ha. The NFL testing protocol is widely known as a joke and simply a PR move to keep the clueless fans happy. Yet they caught TWO of the new Bills players? WT H are the odds?

That year he won the Triple Crown and Superbowl MVP has to be the best year ever by a WR in the history of the league. Somehow it's not talked a lot. But salary cap exists, so I don't think Beane will pursue him. BTW he is also a very good run bocker, and Hollins is gone... Can Kupp walk around barefoot?

Toohill played well in spurts. He has a future playing a backup role in the NFL. And that pays waaay better than a regular job ha ha.

Well, personally, I'm excited with the 3 new DL(OLB) signings. As with anything line related, it also helps the current players, yes that includes AJE, Oliver and Rousseau. Safeties are strong too IMO, Forrest makes this a strong enough group with Rapp, Bishop and Hamlin. Only glaring need is CB, and since supposedly the draft is filled with good interior DL, future is bright! Unless Milano has aged badly, LB group is set too. OLine are strong, JA is back there, and hopefully Palmer produces and Kincaid is back to his rookie form. Barring injuries, this Bills team seems already stronger than the 2024 one, and the draft is still to come!

Bishop was ready physically. He was missing a lot of the nuances and how to be in the right position, etc. So, in essence, he has to shore up his "football IQ". IDK he can do that in the offseason. He seemed to have gotten better by the end of the season.

Sometimes I feel people simply can't change their predetermined narrative. I too cringed painfully when we realized he'd be the starter last year. But he has grown to be quite decent. He made some bad plays, some pretty good ones, and overall, was at least average. Much better than anticipated, and not the disaster some of you guys make him to be. He's no Elam!

People are complaining about a one year deal for a very good pass rusher? OK then. I'm pumped. With Hoeght and Bosa, that run stopping goes way up, and pass rush improves too. It should help Rousseau, Milano, Bernard, Oliver, etc.

This remains THE mystery on offense last year. Samuels, Cooper, and well, pretty much all receivers, had subpar numbers. Yet the offense was the #2 in the league and a juggernaut. And Josh the MVP.

He had 8 last season, 8, twice in the last 3 seasons. 8 is more than 6. And he has been quite good against the run too. But I admit his last outing vs KC left a bad taste. But Bills brass know details we don't.

When the play is obvious as this one is, you can, indeed, put a TE or FB or whatever there. It does NOT have to be the QB. It's smart. A big QB like Josh could actually be the one pushing from behind instead of the one taking the punishment. As for banning it, I'm against unless it is shown to cause many injuries, and/or payers themselves are against it. Otherwise I like it. And sadly, the Chiefs proved against the Bills that it can be stopped. With some referee help of course.

i am not "concerned". I find the contract not exactly safe for Brown by 2026 that's all. But at least he is paid well till 2026. And there's a reason good tackles are paid more than RBs. RBs, WRs, and of course QBs get all the recognition, but OLinemen are essential. They don't get much public fanfare, especially outside their own team fanbases, but they get the big bucks.

Yikes. Unless he stays good, from 2026 and onward they can cut him easily. I wonder how it is for the other NFL teams. As in Bills land, we always hear that the Bills are over the cap every start of the offseason. I thought that for once, the Bills would be in great position this year. Hence why last season was supposed to be a transition, a temporary down phase.

Diggs counted for 31M last year. This coming year: zero. Von Miller will count for a lot less too. Some Bills are FA now. The allowed cap number really went up. So... WHY are the Bills AGAIN over the cap?

In an ideal world, of course we'd keep Cook, he's been productive, fun to watch, and add a great WR1 while at it. But with the salary cap, sorry it's not the priority. OLinemen are paid better than backs for a reason. And at least the starting 6 are all back! Josh, TEs, Shakir. Just one WR that has good production would be enough. Bills were the #2 Offense. It's the D that needs help, bad. DLine mainly. A good DLine can help LBs and DBs so much. And unless he pouts all year and thus makes zero dollars, Cook is signed for another season. The Bills do NOT have to accommodate him.

Nah. Not if 15-0. But imagine an early exit scenario like the Lions 🥴 Or the Bills finally reach the Superbowl, to get humiliated like the Chiefs just did. If Mahomes and KC hadn't won before, this would be a disaster, with fans demanding heads. Their past successes made this loss less catastrophic.

RBs are often big stars, second or third after the QB. Yet, their careers are very short, and most OLinemen are paid more. OLinemen don't get enough credit, but at least they get paid!

IDK how these more "under the radar" coaching positions are paid. Maybe it's not on the level of people all around them in that league... The downside of working for a pro team, is that if he goes on his own, his Bills/NFL reputation will be a giant plus, but he has to start from zero since he was an employee al those years and likely has very few clients to begin. And he didn't need a facility like he had, let alone a modern one like the Bills'.

Yet out of the league in 2024. Weird!
