So It's the Cleveland Jets?

Anthony Walker and Denzel Perryman signed. So that really leaves just Wagner as a FA.

He ate Wyatt Teller's lunch. Everyone's favorite long-lost guard.

People are getting skewed by PFF numbers and sack production. Oliver is a disruptor. He does a really nice job in the run game against much larger people and he causes havoc on the pass rush. Sure he has his up and downs sometimes. I am not sure where this notion that he's terrible comes from, but I completely disagree. I'll stand on this island by myself if need be.

Just to kind of add on, Edwards was playing next to Andrew Whitworth during his best years and, Whitworth retired after the Super Bowl, which could also have affected Edwards' play in a negative way in 2022. But he was definitely Tua'd by the Rams, and the concussions should be a concern, but the Bills have managed Mitch Morse really well, so we shall see.

Sometimes they hide visits. Like last year the Elam visit came out really late in the process. Sometimes the key is looking at the positions they are bringing in. Like last year they met with a ton of linebackers and drafted two, but neither were reported visits. Guys, they drafted who they reportedly met with last year: Kaiir Elam James Cook Matt Araiza UDFA Jalen Wydermyer (signed) In 2021: Jack Anderson In 2020: Zach Moss So sometimes you have to look at what isn't being reported to get clues.

Here's the Walterfootball key: SR - Senior Bowl meeting. EW - East-West Shrine meeting. COM - Combine meeting. INT - Interested. VINT - Very Interested. PRO - Pro Day or campus meeting/workout. LOC - Local visit. Prospect making a local visit. PRI - Private visit. Prospect making an official 30 visit. WOR - Private Workout. Members of an organization working out a player in private. STM - Some Type of Meeting. VIR - Virtual Meeting. % - indicates more than one meeting at an event. ^ - has met with team at more than one event. # - indicates meeting set up outside of the 2023 Senior Bowl or the 2023 East-West Shrine Game

Campbell 31?

I think Simpson will get there, he is just a little raw in the box. Sanders is extremely raw in the box with the highest upside. I like both guys, but if you want plug-and-play with great instincts it's Campbell.

That's why I always kind of laugh about the BPA-based-on-need thing. An argument can be made needs are: LB (Mike) DT (contracts expiring) Edge (Von Injury, AJ's last year) Safety (older guys, Hyde coming off injury) WR (added a bunch here, but could add more) TE (only two on the roster and no true #2) OL (Depth and people to challenge starters) So non-needs: QB Corner (though an argument can be made here with Tre not looking amazing) RB (though an argument can be made, Harris 1 year deal) BPA-based-on-need....every team pretty much has needs everywhere.

Good question. You can still run RPO scenarios in Gap and power sets, they just have to be out of the shotgun formation. There are backside and play-side tight-end RPO concepts that can be deadly. To your point though, just give Harris the ball and let him run, that opens up so much of the play-action passing game and I hope that is where we are headed. They dabbled in gap scheme stuff the last couple of years with the QB counter bash, down blocks on the play side, and a kick and a seal. I think they need to add more of this.

Some rumors about Poona Ford, he is a 3 tech like Oliver. It is not a very impressive group left in free agency. They likely draft a guy as well.

It is pretty much a repeat of last year's offseason where they just completely ignored the corner position and claimed "sometimes the answer is already on your roster." I do still think Wagner could be a good possibility though. Needs at linebacker dried up a bit around the league but there are still suitors, with the Commanders, Browns, Raiders, Vikings, and Steelers probably still looking, with the Cowboys and Seahawks maybe in on Wagner.

He is excellent on the zone game stuff, but I do hope they integrate a little more of the gap scheme stuff. We do a little bit with Josh running and it is really good. That stuff hurts teams like us with smaller, faster defenses. And Harris looks like he is shot out of a cannon on those power plays.

Because their OL grades are BS. It’s the most difficult position to grade and analyze. Some of the stuff they do is great. They miss the mark on OL imo.

Jeremiah has Quentin Johnston falling to us somehow

I mentioned him in January! Great minds? Something like that? 😝

YeahI agree, something around that. I think if he stayed healthy and his play was consistent, he was probably in line for something like McGovern got. So he has to rebuild his value. At the end of the day, I’m guessing he winds up back with LA

🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️ I pay special attention to Wisconsin and Iowa linemen lol

He’s already proven to be better than Bates, he doesn’t have the RAS athletic upside, and I am a Bates fan, Edwards is better imo. If brought in, he’s legit competition, at the same time, the injury questions maybe make him cheap.

Bills fans just like to complain. He had a modest contract to come here, instead if thinking positive, automatically there must be something wrong with the guy. Nobody wanted him. They use PFF and Spotrac data when it backs their points and ignore it when it doesn’t. I guess we will never know the truth, but fans complain that Josh doesnt’t atteact guys the way some other QBs do, he attracts a guy who is better than what we had and making half, and there must be something wrong with the guy. Its silly. This is an amazing signing.

I would just say he had been healthy his whole career until the concussion issues last year. He was in the protocol twice until they shut him down for the season. So it is definitely concerning. The Rams Tua’d him. Other than that though, he’s been healthy.

This is a guy coming to be a part of an explosive offense and taking less to do so, to reset his market next year. This is the Josh Allen affect. When people complain that these signings don’t happen, well here it is. It’s amazing and the price he signed for is shocking really.

Ha! You would think the Jets won something…they are grasping gor straws!

Amazing price and the dude has something to prove? I love it
