I would probably just not sign him until post 2026 anyway. I don’t see us trading him at that point, and I don’t want to be on the hook for 2027 injury guarantees. Pass on the option, if he explodes in 2026, pay him. If he continues to be an injury prone old TE, he can walk.

Decline a fifth year option is not the same as letting a player walk. Also, that’s pretty doubtful in terms of his market.

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but Josh is also probably not ever gonna get us a Super Bowl win and he’s worth every penny.

What is a proverbial purgatory team? Dak was drafted in 2016. He has gotten tagged and 2 massive extensions. He is 82-52 as starter in Dallas. They have made the playoffs 5 seasons. How many talented teams have we seen held back from even making the playoffs because of just awful QB play? It doesn’t compute to me imo. If you don’t have a top 10 QB, you should be selling off talent to find one. Not praying Kenny Pickett is good enough to back into a WC spot 1 year out of 5.

I don’t think it is that interesting. If you have a guy who is in the top 10 conversation year after year, you pay him. You don’t dump them shooting for a perennial top 3 guy. Those guys are usually Hall of Famers. How many HoF or HoF trajectory QBs have been drafted since Aaron Rodgers in 2005? Wilson, Mahomes, Allen, Lamar is the entirety of the list. Maybe one more that we don’t know yet, but Wilson wasn’t more than a top 10 guy for a lot of his career. So hoping you can find 1 of 4 give or take QBs over 20 years is not a good strategy.

And when Ingram is back, Beano fans will crow about how great he is for depth, after calling him JAG trash when we cut him.

Yes. i often asked why Elam was on the roster because he sucked and was never active. Turns out he really sucks and is borderline out of the league. The answer is that Beano thought Elam and Ingram were NOT worthless players, otherwise they would have been dumped long ago. He was clearly wrong on Elam.

Highlighting the Chiefs’ season when discussing patience with this regime is apples to orangatuans. They have been to 5 Superbowls. We have been to zero. Man I wonder why KC fans aren’t screaming “fire Andy.”

Why has Ingram been on the roster then? I reject this premise.

They were in the AFCCG two years ago, which is just as far as we have gotten.

Ignoring how funny it is that this happens to Buffalo like every few years, I’m kinda glad we blocked him skating down waivers to the Eagles. he chose to go to the Steelers and take the money. I would be kinda annoyed if they paid him to go play for the Eagles. He could’ve stayed in Philly for the minimum and chose not to, and there should be systems in place to not allow players to game the system.

THE UNDER HITS

Prior to Keon’s disciplinary nonsense, I would’ve shelved Shakir and put Keon in the slot. I still might consider it. Shakir can’t be a focal point right now.

Dawson Knox was a bad contract but he was what seemed like an ascending young player. There was upside there, even if they were wrong. Andrews is over the hill and there’s minimal upside, especially at that price point.
