This is one of those moves that I legitimately can't understand outside of a sunk cost fallacy. Cam Lewis was awful last season. He arguably lost the Vikings game with a selfish, boneheaded play and then made another huge ST mistake. He's not good at any phase of the game, he's at replacement level. He's not physically gifted over other NFL players and he's not heady and smart on the field. He's a bust, and he should be shown the door. He's not even worth it to bring in for "competition" after the last season. I'd rather take a shot on someone with potential upside over a known quantity that was a net negative last season.

Good for Edmunds to grab generational wealth in a single contract. I'm glad the Bills didn't make that deal. He's a quality player in the NFL, but you can't pay quality players like superstars.

All of this is subjective, but I don't think Fields will take a step forward and I don't like their coach. DJ Moore is a great WR but he's not a gamechanger like AJ Brown or Hill was last season.

I know in the long run this hardly matters, but I HATE this. Should have been cut the second after the Vikings game.

Good luck to him. It'll probably be nice having a fat contract on a team that is unlikely to be competitive.

Is this what having a stroke looks like on Twitter?

Eh, it's better than nothing. I still think it's a draft need.

He can stay for reasonable money, but with the injury concerns and the constant whining about NYS I don't really see much reason for Beane to make it a top priority. Hyde is the guy in that safety duo that makes it work. Incredible athlete and great instincts.

The lack of O-Line investment tells me they're running Tua for one more year and one more year only. I can't say I disagree with the premise. Tua has major concussion concerns, I wouldn't build around him long term either.

Sounds like the Bills lose more often when they fail to get Diggs involved. Only Diggs and the coaches really know who is at fault there.

"Outside of his good games he's bad." is one way to argue, I guess.

I like him for very cheap, like cheaper than Sanders cheap.

I'd love to keep Edmunds around but not for the price he's going to command on the open market. If you could get him on the Milano deal + inflation it's a no brainer, for 17-20 mil a year, no thanks, best of luck to him though. Poyer is whatever. He's been great, and he's excellent when healthy, but that healthy designation is getting less and less likely as his career goes on.

Nobody ever says they want a softer defense.

Probably an unpopular opinion: With all of the injury concerns he showed this season combined with his age I think it's better to let him walk.

Obscenely rich people doing whatever they want? Even if it's fraudulent? Say it ain't so. Every billionaire has done tons plenty of immoral and unscrupulous things to get there. It's unfortunate that we reward this behavior. Screw Goodell though, hope he burns down with the Snyder ship.

I'm not happy with Dorsey either but there's a pretty big difference in an OC that's going into year 2 of his career as a coordinator vs Frazier who has been a DC/HC for over 15 years. What you see with Frazier is what you're going to get. He's not going to start shaking it all up in his 60s. Dorsey can still pivot and improve this early into his career.

Frazier is taking a 1 year hiatus from coaching. He plans to return to coaching next year, that doesn't mean he will return to be the DC of the Bills.

Just trying to be realistic. It's pretty late in the process to hire from the outside.

You're absolutely right, but like they say "The definition of madness is trying the same thing over and over and expecting different results". I don't think Frazier was horrible, but a change is needed. He never performed well in the post-season. Our post-season success is Allen going superman on teams, and herculean efforts by individual players (Taron Johnson's 98 yard pick six). Frazier turtled in the big moments. I feel like we need somebody a bit more bold.

If he can stop them in situational football like 13 seconds then it'll be an upgrade.

I'll take a slide down in the regular season if it means better post-season performance with better situational playcalling when it matters.

Have to hire within probably at this point. I just want somebody who can be a bit more aggressive and mix it up more. The scheme is okay, situational playcalling is what felt really questionable to me.

Yeah, I heard Beane only drafts guys to stand back 10-12 yards when the other team needs 5. The DC wasn't putting his players in positions to be effective during critical downs. You can argue that the players are subpar, but they were basically put in situations that were doomed from the get go.

This late in the game I got to think that they're hiring someone internally to replace him. If they can be more aggressive in key moments then the scheme should be fine. Fraizer was too passive and it showed against good teams. Let's get someone hungry in there to prove themselves.
