And he saw it, didn’t take any picture, and everyone else at CAESAR’s also saw it and also did not take any picture. Not one person. Hm

@BringBackFergy lost a step?

Mayfield started his first year at OK in 2015. Feels like yesterday.

I do. it would be plastered everywhere online. That’s a click generator. A topic for many people to loudly opine how bad it is. Combining head injuries, gambling, NFL in one story? My gut tells me that @Returntoglory’s friend is either messing with him or wrong himself.

Quotes from 2015

Time for the oldest internet rule in history. pics or it didn’t happen.

He saw what

Yeah when Josh gets his new contract, he will be probably the highest paid QB in the NFL or close to it. I don’t think you pay a Shakir to ride along.

I don’t think that Shakir is worth what he will demand on the open market. He is a wonderful player and I wish we could keep him but he remains just below what we should spend with Josh making top 5 money imo

Yeah my point remains the sensible.

I don’t think WR’s that are between top 20 and top 40 are worth what they are paid on the open market.

I agree they probably shouldn’t extend Shakir but I think they will, personally.

Excuse me. Doug wanted them to hire HUE JACKSON. Arguably the worst HC of all time. A worse winning percentage than Jim Tomsula. It wasn’t ANY offensive coach. It was an actual “offensive” coach.

Personally, I think a large majority of “miracle” plays are complete defensive failures. That’s kinda what makes them miracles.

Is the next topic going to be, “who was a better acquisition, Ryan Fitzpatrick or Josh Allen”

It’s kind of interesting because I look at this group today as a comparison of the 2020-2021 units, at least at the top. Cooper - Diggs Coleman - Davis Shakir - Beasley 2024 Cooper is probably not as good as 2020-2021 Diggs. But Davis was a WR3/4 over-elevated and I think Coleman clears him now. Shakir and Beasley may be a wash but I give the edge to Shakir. Then you add Kincaid and Cook to the mix and this entire offensive group looks not half bad. Just looking at EPA/play, this is the best offense we have had since 2020.

There’s no reason to be nasty. Any argument to trade Edwards is an argument to trade Elam. Any argument to keep Edwards is an argument to keep Elam. You know this is true. Super awesome “valuable” depth is literally anything but.

Who knows? Maybe! He wouldn’t be the first DB on our team to spend a large majority of their time with us inactive/not playing but be in our plans the next year.

Mike Edwards is untradeable, imo. He provides very important depth and he may be in their future plans in 2025.

Shout out to @GunnerBill out here facing the slings and arrows for the crime of providing some multicultural context.

A titan of optimism in this community. There aren’t a lot of posters who you can just tell are good people at their core just by the way they speak. John was one of those. But not in a judgmental or ivory tower way. He brought an every man’s determination and positivity to this community. His “hope springs eternal” spirit will be sorely missed. RIP to a great Bills fan.

He's valuable depth! He's untouchable!

Colts outright, IMO.

So here's the thing. The Vikings got Robinson. When he walks next year in FA, he will count to the comp pick formula. It's not perfect but they will likely accrue some value back. Valuable depth is an oxymoron. We saw our "valuable" depth at LB last year. We have seen it this year. Do you think a Deion Jones-type can't give us Baylon Spector level production? These end of the roster guys are just that. They aren't valuable. If they were valuable, they would be seeing the field and playing well. Here's a list of late rounders drafted by the Bills since 2020, bolded are off the team/out of the league/not playing this season: Fromm Bass Hodgins Jackson Doyle Stevenson Hamlin Wildgoose Anderson Shakir Araiza Benford Tenuta Spector Shorter Broeker Austin SVPG Ulofoshio Solomon Grable Hardy Clayton I get it. Shakir and Benford have been excellent. They are the equivalent of striking gold. You don't want zero late round picks. But they are total crapshoots. If Dawkins went down, I would have done the Cam Robinson deal or something similar in two seconds. The value of these picks is completely overstated in the NFL, and that means the seller of those picks is going to make the profit.

Yes, which is why I’d be shipping off 5ths, 6ths and 7ths all day long in the Josh Allen era for rentals. You are getting guys who have shown something at the NFL level. Even if they leave in FA immediately after, they count toward comp pick formulas and replenish those picks anyway. If there’s a decent LB out there that can be had cheaply, go get him, for example.
