Maybe we don't know, exactly. I would love to see him catch some balls and rip of some YAC. The fans will go nuts! I see you point, but he is by far the most important add from the draft that could give this team a huge upgrade.

Kincaid?

They are all the "same" size wise. Which brings me to a question. Beane and McDermott seem to have purposely done this. It's a completely different profile from what they had with Edmunds. IF they knew that Edmunds was most likely to command more $s then they could afford it shows me that a change in "scheme" for the MLB was considered. So, the question I have for those who know more is this. What kind of "hybrid" scheme could they be considering? Having McDermott taking over the D could also give this idea credence. I had thought the maybe the MLB role would be platooned depending on down and distance and opponents' personnel and habits. If that is true, the only thing that would confuse me is who then wears the green dot helmet because the MLB would be a constant variable. I can't help but wonder why Beane and McDermott have "broke the mold" on the standard LB body type, but it does seem to be a conscious decision.

I'm fairly certain Dion Dawkins will be ready for the season. Vets like him and Morse are not going 100% during camp like some UDFA. Nor should they. It's a long season. Dion's contract is up after next year and I could see a LT drafted in the near future.

I'll drink one for Marv today. Way to go you horse's ass!

I guess I could make an argument that the 2023 Buffalo Bills pass catchers (WRs, TEs and RBs) are superior to the same from 2022. With Dorsey having a year under his belt I have optimism for a good year in the passing game. Same might be said for the running game. A healthy Josh Allen season could make for a fun year. It's up to the OL to tie it all together.

I'm excited to see the one-two punch from Cook and Harris. Ray on the PS could be a good insurance policy. Hope he keeps improving.

I truly believe they were physically and emotionally drained. Just as a fan I know I was. It was a crazy season and it's over and done with. While football can be dissected about the skill of a player there is a lot more that gets these guys up to playing their best other than bragging rights and money. They are coming off 2 tough post seasons and they know the mettle of their prime opponents. I'm curious how they handle all that this year. I'm sticking to what Jordan Poyer said in his "Welcome Back" presser as the key. When asked, "What does this team need to do to win it all?" His answer was, "Finish". I give this team a pretty good chance of doing just that.

Camp is a week old, and I guess my age has tempered me not over-react to much at this time of year. Rosters "on paper" are just that. Even the preseason games don't tell me much as to how the team will be playing in the playoffs and the playoffs is all that matters. Are there some questions regarding the starters and prime depth? You betcha. Do any of us really know what will ultimately happen? I have to give it a resounding "no". That uncertainty is the prime reason I love to watch the games as the season progresses! For the guys on the 90-man roster all I have to say is keeping working hard and give us your best. Stay as healthy as possible and give me the entertainment that it's all about. Football brings out the hopeful "little kid" in me and at this time of year I cannot help but be hopeful! Go Bills!

Week 1 has the Dolphins going on the road to play the Chargers. It will tell me a lot about both of those teams. If I still bet, I would have my money on the Chargers.

Great news!

Camp body for vet minimum with no dead cap. Can't get upset over that.

Enzo Flojo (the author of the article) should stick to what he knows, International Basketball. (FIBA). Why do Bills fans even respond to these "sports writers".

I thought it was pretty cool Sean was out there supporting the Sabres.

Evaluating the OL before the pads even go on in camp would be speculation at best. My off-season number one hope was for improved OL play. I will be watching for the camp reports with interest. The 2 guard spots should have good competition for both starters and depth. Fingers crossed that the entire unit stay relatively healthy, especially Spencer Brown. He needs a good camp for any chance for significant improvement.

Thanks @T&Cfor posting this video. Can't wait to see Chapter 2. I like what I see so far. I get the feeling that Terry and his team are going to build something we will love and be proud of. It seems to me the stadium will have a seat to satisfy each type of Bills fan. It will be a great day when I get to watch a game there for the first time! Go Bills!

Well, it's comforting to see that nothing has changed on the board during my break. The way I see it, Terry Pegula owns the team and seems satisfied (for the near future) in Beane and McDermott. I kind of feel the same way. For all the fans that hate the move, I can't change your minds, so I won't try. Just a comment on some of the points made in this thread. Andy Reid did take all those seasons to win a SB. Maybe it's only because he has an elite QB. I'm of the opinion the Mahomes could win without Reid as long as he had a decent OC. Just my opinion and I'm not taking anything away from Andy. It's true that Sean Payton won his only SB in his 4th year. It has been followed by never winning another for 11 seasons WITH an ELITE QB. so, if the criteria for HCs is they must win in the first X number of years, what's the criteria of these ELITE HCs who have won only 1 SB for consecutive SB misses before they are retreads or "one hit wonders"? Something to ponder. All that matters is this season Beane and McDermott are running the show. I'm going to watch to see how they and the players do. Go Bills!

I see Cook and a healthy Harris splitting rushing attempts with Cook getting a bit more. Bills have averaged 440 rushing attempts (including Allen) the last 2 seasons. I see that being about the same. Cook will lead that with around 175 (10 per game). It should be determined by game plans against the opposing Ds and game situations.

If Floyd is not re-signed next year the Bills will take a $4.3M dead money hit in 2024. It will not go on till 2026. Take a look at this gem from the Saints GM. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/new-orleans-saints/cameron-jordan-7739/

I have a Korean girlfriend. She is sweet the way I see Kim.

That is one man who loves his wife very much. Personally, I know how those sweet Korean girls can burrow into your heart. Keep getting better Kim!

"Going rogue" would be the last 2 words I would use for Frazier's play calling. As for the term "delusional", I would use that for any fan that thinks Sean is calling the D only because Frazier will be back calling the Buffalo Bills defense next season. Frazier is out because he is too predictable, and Sean will call the plays this year while training one of the assistants to take over next season.

If DHop wants a one-year deal then everything you said makes sense. If he wants a multi-year high dollar deal (which I'm assuming he does at this moment) then it could cause a true need to re-tool the team a lot earlier than I would like. Beane has pushed the signings pretty much to the limit and still maintaining the mantra he has said over and over he wants to keep. That's having a contender every year. I know there is a huge rift in fans on the board over this, but he is being true to his word. I think Sean has done a very good job keeping the locker room believing in the future.
