Giving up 3rd and plenty has happened a lot since he has been gone too

Would sooner stick thumbtacks in my eyes then watch this game again …

Beane apparently still leaving the door open for these two … No doubt they are free to take one off his $2m specials …with $100k guaranteed

What was the number for Gabe? $5m a year ? My thoughts on Cook ( which are worth the same as anyone else’s - not much) are that he plays out the year and moves on ..

I’m still gunna be surprised if Beane takes one at 30 … Harrison Phillips is the full list of 1T he has drafted I believe … and he went at 90 odd ..

Can’t believe you are shilling for a DT 🤔… there must be some WR you want them to take instead ?

Cheaper deal than I was expecting …. There must be some pressure on a young guy who was picked late Day 3 , and earned practically nothing over three years , to take the $40-50m guaranteed … Find a guy in the draft now for the other side …

They will both end up on a team … they have no doubt over valued themselves … I thought some of the projections for Cooper at $15m a year was comedy gold even in this inflated market …

This is both a realistic and highly possible strategy …. I see no chance that Beane patiently sits there from 62 to 109 twiddling his thumbs ..its highly probable he moves up into the third … Another possibility is a trade up in the second 10 spots or so in return for a move back from second to third with the other second round pick…maybe they do this to make sure they secure a CB they want in the second …

Is Hamlin island really a thing?

I’m waiting until after the draft …I suspect that they draft a WR in rounds 2-4 …so that probably closes the door on Cooper.. they might take two CBs in the draft this year … but say they only take one then maybe Douglas is still some hope … I don’t think he is playing on a Brandon Beane $2mil special if that’s the expectation…. Maybe $3m might get it done

How much do you want to pay them ?

I’ll tell you pretty simply what my argument is . He could have asked for and received $65m a year from the Bills and no one would have really blinked an eye… He has played for $10m a year less ..: I’m not saying that makes him some type of matyr or anything …but no doubt it will help them out …

In your opinion …in my opinion it’s a good one

The Patriots might have … He is the best player in the competition now …the fact he got the highest guaranteed money doesn’t mean he couldn’t have got more if he dug in
