Yes, I would be secretly afraid of that. Someone will give Henry Zeke money. I don't want to spend that for a RB. I doubt Gordon would take 7Mil/yr. I wonder if you could convince one of them to take a deal of around 5-6Mil/yr for Gordon or around 8-9Mil for Henry, but it's all guaranteed? That way they get their money and we get a discount on a good player. It's a risk, but could have great cap relief later on.

OK... I am going to only draft up to 2 WRs this time. Fanspeak, Steve list Round 1: The only other person I thought about was Jefferson WR. Round 2: 22: R1P22 OT JOSH JONES HOUSTON 54: R2P22 S KYLE DUGGER LENOIR-RHYNE 86: R3P22 LB MALIK HARRISON OHIO STATE 125: R4P22 EDGE ANFERNEE JENNINGS ALABAMA 155: R5P9 WR QUARTNEY DAVIS TEXAS A&M 167: R5P21 S KVON WALLACE CLEMSON 188: R6P9 RB AJ DILLON BOSTON COLLEGE 201: R6P22 CB JAMES PIERRE FLORIDA ATLANTIC 207: R6P28 WR JUWAN JOHNSON OREGON I'm kinda underwhelmed on the WR's I drafted. This is the first mock where I couldn't find good WR's in the 4/5th round. Also, I drafted 2 Safeties.... ugh.

I'd say low 90's. Beane and company have been making pretty good moves and doing a great job of keep flexibility on the cap, which is huge. Not all of their moves have panned out, but you can see they are actively trying to make the team better, which is all I can ask for. Now, let's get some 'reasonably' priced free agents, except for maybe 1 'splash' FA. Maybe a DE? Then draft a couple of great WR's in the draft and we will be golden.

First off, let me say that we probably are not going to draft 3 WR's, but we probably won't draft all those picks. We'll probably give a couple away moving around the draft board. As for why you COULD draft 3 WR's... Well, you can play up to 5 WR's on the field at one time. QB : 1, LB's usually up to 3. But I agree we will probably spread the picks around more positions and provide more depth in multiple spots. It's just when I'm going thru the draft, WR always seems to be the BPA.

IMO, after Beasley and Brown, I do not have much confidence in any of the WR's after them. IF this WR draft class is so deep, I would draft 2-3 to try and increase your quality of depth.

fanspeak - kingdom connection - Brandon Norris Round 1: 4 WR's went before us including Jefferson. Highest WR is Shenault. These ppl were still available: 12 LB KENNETH MURRAY - OKLAHOMA 13 OT TRISTEN WIRFS - IOWA 15 LB PATRICK QUEEN - LSU 16 CB KRISTIAN FULTON - LSU 23 EDGE K'LAVON CHAISSON - LSU Round 2: Ainuk WR was available, but went with the S that the Bills supposedly love. Plus, great value. Round 3: Claypool just sitting there. Round 4: Still ALOT of good WR's out there. Round 5: I'm very happy with this draft. 22: R1P22 OT TRISTEN WIRFS IOWA 54: R2P22 S KYLE DUGGER LENOIR-RHYNE 86: R3P22 WR CHASE CLAYPOOL NOTRE DAME 125: R4P22 WR TYLER JOHNSON MINNESOTA 155: R5P9 LB MICHAEL DIVINITY JR LSU 167: R5P21 EDGE KENNY WILLEKES MICHIGAN ST. 188: R6P9 RB AJ DILLON BOSTON COLLEGE 201: R6P22 OT SCOTT FRANTZ KANSAS ST. 207: R6P28 WR JAUAN JENNINGS TENNESSEE

What do you have to give up to trade for him?? I'm sure Wash is looking for ALOT more than what I'm willing to give for him. How much will he want in a new contract?? Again, not sure he would be worth it. Finally, dude had head problems and couldn't put on a helmet... Yikes! I'd say pass.

5th round pick for a 2 year rental of a good strong complement RB... Yes, sign me up.

It would be better for Poyer to play out his last year of the contract. With the new CBA going to be approved *hopefully*, the cap is going to jump next year IMO. More cap, higher wages...

fanspeak - brad board Round 1: Ruggs, Jeudy, and Lamb all went in the Top 11, Mims went at 19. Kindlaw dropped from 11. Could have gotten Andrew Thomas or Chaisson here. Round 2: (27) Deandre Smith was still here, but took WR instead. Round 3: Highest rated player left except for a Center in the (60's). Round 4: Our pick is 125, 3 highest players are WR: (99)Bryant Edwards, (117)KJ Hill, and (118)Collin Johnson. So I go edge (125). Round 5: (155), could have gotten Tyler Johnson (149), but Antonio ranked (140). 22: R1P22 DL JAVON KINLAW SOUTH CAROLINA 54: R2P22 WR LAVISKA SHENAULT JR. COLORADO 86: R3P22 OT MATT PEART CONNECTICUT 125: R4P22 EDGE ANFERNEE JENNINGS ALABAMA 155: R5P9 WR ANTONIO GANDY-GOLDEN LIBERTY 167: R5P21 S KVON WALLACE CLEMSON 188: R6P9 WR JAUAN JENNINGS TENNESSEE 201: R6P22 RB AJ DILLON BOSTON COLLEGE 207: R6P28 CB STANFORD SAMUELS III FLORIDA STATE

I think we're pretty much on the same page other than the amount of compensation to give up for ODB. For me, the depth of this WR class is what drives down ODB's worth. If you project good quality potential WR's all the way through the 3rd (prob not ODB level obviously), I find it hard to trade no more than a 3rd round pick (or multiple lower level picks) for him. Maybe ODB is just looking for that perfect team fit that will miraculously fix all his ills. Maybe he needs a strong armed QB that wants to throw it 70 yards and he runs under it to catch it... Who knows with this guy. Either way it will be a gamble to take him or gamble on the draft pick, but I wouldn't give up our first where we can get a great WR, OT, DE that will fill a spot on the team for 5 years...cheaply.

I think if the Bills added a high end speed rusher like Clowney and lessened the time the opposing QB could hold the ball on obvious passing downs would make this defense truly elite.

Tyreke and Frank might be bad people off the field, but have been good players and teammates. ODB is a potential cancer in the locker room when he doesn't get the ball enough. Supposedly, he was courting other teams while he was playing against them... that sounds like a guy that's all about himself. Now, like you said, would I take that chance on ODB? Yes, if it's at my asking price, which for this year and this crop of WR's coming out... is LOW. I'd rather take my chances on a college WR and roll the dice, plus I don't take the cap hit (~14MIL) with a rookie like I do with ODB.

Blown away.... The dude's a mental headcase going on his third team in 3 years and was erratic before that... NOT going to get any blown away offers. Cleveland traded for a lemonhead. let's not help them out unless we are blown away with how little it will take...

They still got that crap over there! That is crazy. Do the Duke/Lord/Royal just pocket the money or does it go to the gov't???

By saying they are seriously looking at Tua, any team that really wants Tua will potentially need to work with Wash to get the #2 pick to get him. Also, I think Wash would be stupid not to be seriously looking at Tua. If you think Tua is a much better QB than Haskins, I think you pull the trigger. Just think what Ariz would have been like last year w/ Rosen at the helm for another year...

Caught in the smokescreen.

Fanspeak: NFL Mock Draft Database Round 1: AJ Espensa and Ruggs was here for the taking... Round 2: Don't necessarily want a RB in Round 2, but.... Dobbins was there. Round 3: Pittman BPA. Round 4: Round 5: Claypool BPA. DAMN: there are SO MANY WRs! 22: R1P22 WR HENRY RUGGS III ALABAMA 54: R2P22 RB J.K. DOBBINS OHIO STATE 86: R3P22 WR MICHAEL PITTMAN JR. USC 125: R4P22 OT JACK DRISCOLL AUBURN 155: R5P9 WR CHASE CLAYPOOL NOTRE DAME 167: R5P21 EDGE MICHAEL DIVINITY JR. LSU 188: R6P9 DL RAEQUAN WILLIAMS MICHIGAN STATE 201: R6P22 G COLTON MCKIVITZ WEST VIRGINIA 207: R6P28 S ANTOINE BROOKS JR. MARYLAND

Ok, sooooo... Ruggs in the 1st and Claypool in the 2nd round?? Best of both worlds? I about pooped a brick when I saw McShay had a RB projected to the Bills at 22! If we do that...

Hey, the more WR's that wow everyone, hopefully they pull themselves higher up in the draft and we can get an EDGE or an OT to slide down to us.

What's his cap hit? In this draft with ALOT of WR's. Last 6th round pick.

What is the minimum rookie salary now? "$100K increase in 2020 for Rookie Minimums, another $50K increase in 2021 and then $45K increase each year after" How is this going to effect the bottom of your roster? "Performance Based Pay increased to $8.5M in 2020 and $10M in 2021, with annual increases thereafter" Is this so you can make contacts performance based? I'm assuming performance bonuses are a part of their cap number? "Raises for Practice Squad Players to $10.5K per week; total number of 12 players increasing to 14 players, with two unlimited Accrued Seasons players" 2 unlimited spots. That's pretty cool.

where can you get the CBA doc at??? Thanks.

Well, whoever is going for Trevor needs to get the #1 pick, because you are not getting him at #2. Well, if you were going to tank, Rosen is a good start. They need to trade for Peterman so clinch it.

What would be the value for next year's 1st round pick be? Thx. BTW, I was also trading them the Bills 3rd round pick and 5th round pick.
