This lawsuit is brought to you by the letters “L”, “A”, “M”, “R”, and the number “8”.

You have to be careful about the upward trajectory projection with guys who are splitting snaps. The NFL is littered with players that have out lying season statistics, particularly RBs and TDs. Probably the best recent example is Aaron Jones who parlayed a superbly productive season into a $12mil/yr contract with GB and never duplicated the scoring production. That said, I’d be happy if Beane got Cook signed for that same contract, but I’m not so sure it’d be the best idea if it was inflated to $15mil/yr. Jones career rushing stats.

Cook’s desired salary is not entirely unreasonable. Aaron Jones got a 4/$48M extension from GB years ago despite splitting carries after a similar season… same money as Jacobs. Plus, Barkley also just reset the market with $20 mil per season. RBs that can break a game open and are threats in the passing game get paid. I’m not sure if Beane will pay that, but some team likely will.

Wow. Surprised by the numbers. Certainly a heck of a deal for the Bills.

My big issue with Coleman is that his current skill set basically fills the same niche as Kincaid — big slot. That’s on Beane, not the kid… Coleman certainly has room for improvement though, so 🤞🏼 that he maximizes his potential while on a rookie contract. I was however pleasantly surprised at how capable Coleman was as a blocker at times. If he can become a real dog there maybe that’ll help him at the top of his stems. Wait and see I guess.

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and assume you didn’t go to the “wrong” Catholic Church, group home, etc while growing up….

It’s all good as long as they avoid their PED test results coming back “pregnant”.

Some folks think Allen, Shakir, Rousseau, Oliver, Edwards, McGovern, Torrence, Brown, Bernard, Benford, and Cook are all trash. A few of them even think that signing some of these guys to below market deals is worse. Such is the case with the modern mind twisted by Madden on easy franchise mode. 🤷‍♂️

Check in after the SB…. If this FA class and upcoming draft picks culminate in a SB win then we can party in the streets and build statues…. Until then it’s wait and see.

Good for both sides…. Bills need the cap and roster space…. Elam needs a fresh start. Good luck to him, and I hope we have better luck on whomever we draft with those picks.

I’m not certain that we need another difference maker on offense (assuming Cook and Shakir perform at the same level), especially if Coleman or Kincaid take a step forward. We certainly need a difference maker or two on the team overall though. Whether that’s the desired receiver, DB that makes timely plays, or a DLman that gets timely stuffs or sacks… We need another guy or two to make some magic happen, particularly on the defensive side of the ball.

It’s Shelly Long.

Okay…. Now Beane needs to upgrade the D line to keep him clean.

At the right price - assuming he’s healthy - Hargrave would be a good rotational piece with Oliver that could be used effectively on 3rd and long alongside Oliver in a rush package. Key is in the right price and healthy aspect….

None. It would be proof of concept for Daboll’s offense. It’d probably work a lot better if they hadn’t bailed on saquon but 🤷‍♂️.
