ColoradoBills

I'm still hopeful for improvement.

I was one of the "displaced" Bills fans after the closing of BBMB. If I knew this place existed, I would have "defected" years earlier.

Nope. Don't forget the other side of that coin. EVERYONE SUCKS.

Heard a lot last season that Spencer has a pretty good run blocking game. A good threat of the running game will help the passing game too.

This board is the best except for GDTs! LOL.

He also would take a $323k dead cap hit if cut. He makes the team unless he plays extremely poorly through the camp/preseason. It's those 6 and the real battle is for PS spots.

It's all about Von and the PUP status. I can't see Von being ready for the Jets. So, when is he realistically expected to be back? The only other game I'd like to see him in for during the first 6 weeks is the Miami game in Week 4. The early schedule is set up pretty good to let him recover fully. I say keep Von on PUP for 6 weeks and get him 100%. Keeping the other 10 gives flexibility against injury and a decision can be made then. Who knows after 6 weeks what team could be hurting on DL and the possible trade value could increase.

Not in my courtroom.

I had hopes that Kyle Allen could secure a backup role not only for this year but for future years. It has been reported that he is struggling. I'm going to watch the preseason games and see if he can produce before making any final decision on him.

His jobs went from Asst Secondary coach to Safety coach now to LB coach. He seems to be getting groomed in my mind. If I compare him to the other D coaches, he seems the strongest candidate for DC if McDermott stay in-house. if it did happen, only time would tell if he excelled. I do like to listen to him in his pressers. I like his knowledge, passion and straight forwardness.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least to see Babich take over the DC position in the near future.

I remember that last year a bunch of twitter videos were posted pretty fast. Not sure if YOLO was doing that. I hope someone finds them this year and posts them in next to real time.

It's amazing that Spencer is out in pads today after his fusion surgery last night!

I am too. I must admit I'm glad I stayed away from the board pretty much until camp started. I'm excited for the NEW season!

That's a shame.

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.
