I would have liked this better 5 years ago when we needed bodies. Not so much when we really only need a few guys and more impactful the better. Hopefully they use the 4 6ths to get into the 3rd or 4th.

3 6th rounders now…no room on roster for any of them. Trade bait to get into the 4-5th.

Rb Cook Lb Dean Dt Jones Wr Pickens C Jurgens

Something along these lines: 1- CB: Booth, Elam, McDuffie 2- RB Hall, WR Dotson 3- WR Metchie, RB Spiller, RB B Robinson 4-6 (4 Picks) CB Mathis, S Cline, S Cross, CB Emerson, LB Muma, LB Smith, LB Asomoah, C/G Parham, C/G Burford, TE Wydermyer, TE Turner, TE Likely, TE Mitchell 7- WR Rambo, WR Melton, RB Marks

If you can only give up a late rounder you move up if it’s for: Hall or Walker if you believe they are a day 1 starter. If you want the future C then Jurgens may go early as well. If not, sit back and get a solid WR.

This is the least interested I have been in the draft in years. And it feels good. We finally have a team that is good enough that our draft pick does not need to be an impact player. Yes, we have some holes to fill and it would be a nice surprise to draft a guy that can step in right away. But even nicer to not be relying on that. So my draft assumptions or hopes are any of the following 1) Draft a CB that can play right away 2) One of the better WR fall to us 3) Breece Hall is not picked in round 1 and we get him in round 2, even better round 3 4) Future Center 5) LB Depth 6) More DB depth 7) TE Depth. Something along these lines: 1- CB: Booth, Elam, McDuffie 2- RB Hall, WR Dotson 3- WR Metchie, RB Spiller, RB B Robinson 4-6 (4 Picks) CB Mathis, S Cline, S Cross, CB Emerson, LB Muma, LB Smith, LB Asomoah, C/G Parham, C/G Burford, TE Wydermyer, TE Turner, TE Likely, TE Mitchell 7- WR Rambo, WR Melton, RB Marks

He has $1.5M base plus had a $1.5M roster bonus. They took the $1.5M roster bonus and converted that. So instead of the entire $1.5M hitting this years cap, it is now spread across 4 years. So gives you more cap this year and takes away a bit in the next 3 years.

CB position is the biggest concern. White may not be back until midseason. RB is still betting on Singletary. Maybe we can upgrade via the draft here. OL is also an area that could use some depth. Hopefully Morse stays healthy, if not you have Bates as backup. Saffold and Ike/Bates should be average. Dawkins and Brown are solid. WR is another area the draft could help. Diggs is still the guy, but he got shut down last year vs the prior year. I dont know if the Chief game Davis is the guy you get on a weekly basis. Crowder is a nice pick up. My draft is best CB/WR in the first and likely 2nd. Then you go best on the board at OL, RB, CB, WR the rest of the draft.

I would say no. Still on his rookie contract.

Depends what veteran means. In traditional sense it would be guys like: Hyde Poyer White Diggs Dawkins Lawson Phillips

Disliking the rule and enforcing it are two separate things. I also hate the rule. BUT if you have a rule then enforce it. Dont pick and choose when you are going to call it. I am blanking on the scenario but recall the Bills getting screwed on a taunting call in the HOU playoff loss.

These type of signing are interesting when we are up against the cap trying to fit guys in. You just hope the cap number is low and has no impact if he is cut.

I will believe the KC drop when I see it. I think your QB is much more important than a guy like Hill. Mahomes will still win them games.

Hill, Waddle, Gesecki and Devante Parker are solid weapons. They get decent QB play and they are a tough team. I also think Mahomes is in the Brady / Rodgers category in that they can lose a guy like Hill and replace him. Still - Bills have the best D in the conference and at least top 5 offense.

What happened to speed? We may have the slowest rb's in the league with Singletary, Moss and Johnson. We need a speed back.

Dont mind him as a back up. But for $6M? Waiting to hear that number come down to $2M hopefully.

There has got to be a Fitz or similar that does not care about cash at this point and just wants a ring.

Wish list: WR: Possible - Jones, JuJu, Landry Unlikely - Robinson LB: Possible - Van Noy, K White Unlikely - Wagner CB: Possible - D Jackson, Peterson, Haden Unlikely - Gilmore RB: Possible - Fournette, David Johnson, Michel Unlikely - Paterson

Miller Jones Mack but lose a 2nd I think they are close enough that its not worth giving up a 2nd for Mack. Miller vs Jones is a close one. I think you could go either way on these guys. Miller is not playing in the dirt as much as Jones. But I like the idea of Miller lining up next to our bigger DE's or next to Oliver and running stunts. I see Jones being used in more of a traditional way. But either would be fine just glad we got one of them.

Nice. Let’s see a similar deal for a Julio, juju or another wr for a fresh start.

So much to all those that said we don’t do “dumb stuff” like this. What you have to say for yourself. Now let’s work some magic and get a wr on the cheap. Turnaround story for a guy like juju or Julio?

Now I’m confused. I wanted them to do something but need to check this contract out. 6 years at his age? Even 4 years?

Since when is signing a guy to a 2-3 year deal "mortaging the future"? I see that as the opposite - win now without sacrifcing too much. If you notice a lot of the deals are short term and this is the NFL so its easy to get out of even long deals. Every time we dont sign 1 or 2 guys we hear the "all in" comment. Makes no sense. It is so easy to make deals work for a few guys. What actually hurts more is along the line of what are roster has - tons of depth guys making too much money.

All the teams that have made the Super Bowl the past few years have done so partly by being very active in adding players. LAR, CIN, KC, TB...
