If the draft doesn't yield a receiver that is a weapon for Josh, then I would be open to acquiring Pickens on a one year rental

Imagine thinking a dude that couldn't stay on the field in warm and Sunny California is going to thrive in Buffalo in January Not a chance he's doing work here in the playoffs

Still absurd money for a guy that lost his starting job to a guy with stone hands and had one TD on the season

This is really my problem with Beane bringing him in His body of work says he's a borderline starter that should get maybe 5 mil per year on a modest deal...not 3 for 36. 500 yards and one touchdown isn't a strong hand for an agent to play in negotiations, so why did Beane do something that was unlikely for any other team to do?

He can't stay on the field, my guy Can't make plays if you're not getting on the field

Dude is arguably the most injury prone player in the league WTF is Beane doing?

I don't care what the analysts say. Half of those dopes barely watch the games and can't even tell you who's who half the time. Right now is when people try to sell new acquisitions to the masses. Of course they're gonna be talking rainbows and unicorns right now. They want to justify these guys getting good size contracts and want the league to look a certain way when it comes to free agent signings. It's all about potential and what X player could produce. I hope this guy is everything and more than what analysts say he is, but to me this is the type of guy that you don't pay and you draft because he doesn't seem to possess any traits that stand out which makes him less valuable and easier to find someone that can do what he can in the draft for a much lower cost

I agree that he could potentially see a bump in numbers due to Allen and the system here, but his glowing praise of Palmer and his ability to win more than most receivers etc is just flat out nonsense I'll hope he can become a guy who can produce at a starters level, but to me that's likely the dudes ceiling. What we've seen from him so far is he's probably a borderline boundary receiver

They can think whatever they want, but the proof is in the numbers that he has produced What you said about him is simply ridiculous, and his play over numerous years is proof that it's ridiculous

Pats used their massive cap space to hurt us with Hollins knowing we couldn't pay what they were offering Shrewd move on their part

None of this is true, because if it was...he would have much better stats than one TD and five hundred and some odd yards, and those numbers are pretty well established as his totals on a yearly basis Beane did a bad deal here for a guy that we could easily replicate with a mid round WR in this draft

This is simply a ridiculous signing that has no upside to it at all We could draft a Josh Palmer in this draft and pay him much less He could potentially get a few more TD's and a few hundred more yards being in this offense, but that's not worth the contract he got Consider me down on this move

It's possible, but if Josh and the Bills are smart (I believe they are) they are coaching him from a run alot QB that takes hits to a run and take hits only in crucial situations QB, and hopefully eventually a more cerebral QB that only uses the run even less because he can almost always solve the defense with his arm or throwing the ball away.

Why are you highlighting parts you want to use to make your point while ignoring the rest which clearly explains why I think he's probably a me first player looking for as much money as he can get and will cause distractions and whatever else he can if the Bills don't meet his demands So, yeah...it's not just the social media comments. It's that he wants 15 mil per year and he's not an every down back, plus he's gone about this in a way that makes me wary of him and his commitment to the team and his motivations. And Josh Allen was and will always be the best player on the field every game. Cook couldn't even be out there when the game was on the line, my guy.

I had no issue with him wanting to get an extension in the 30-33 million range with about half guaranteed for an additional three years. I do however have an issue with him putting out he wants 15 mil/year to the world and then getting upset cause of some people's reactions on social media. And, yes...now that he has shown this type of behavior I question whether he's the type of guy that the Bills want in their locker room. I question his motivation and whether he wants to win or get paid. Me first guys that cause issues unless they get what they want and team be damned probably aren't the best fit for this roster. Hopefully I'm way off base and we have this all wrong and Cook wants to be here on a deal that works for both sides
