defense first approach...they got run-stuffing NT from the fins (yes...and the usual vertical TE)
-
next man up, 2 very good years from him at age 30+, thanks for the productivity adds to the extra free agent draft picks next year hopefully
-
good points raised. I think Bills management decided that they way the team came together during the second-half of last season won 2 out of 3 playoff games validated keeping the roster in place given that replacement either were either not as good and or not likely to come here given cap constraints or secondary reasons (the wife or girl not crazy about WNY)...yes...what is the next step to improve the pass rush and middle pass coverage ? Is Star the answer to stabilzing the interior against the run, is he going to retire or not ?
-
and then the cost and the ability of replacement for Star at the 1 tech position...a starter...Vernon Butler ? kind of light which was Beane's opinion of why the overall interior did not stop the run effectively last season..help wanted.

depth - rotation - injury insurance...under contract for one more year only with a pay cut

I just wet myself again....

hate to see him go but others have silly cap space that we don't...just want him out of the division and conference..he is kind of small and some injury history so the risk is above normal given the long-term contract he is looking for and likely to get, good for him
-
7th rounder; had a camp and partial year to develop; likely PS member unless he beats the odds to make the roster which involve an injury more than beating someone out

excellent and smart move - 3 more years if it goes to the max will be 8 years - this was a find and a big hit by McD - this one precedes Beano
2=year extension worth 19.25M per NFL Network h/t espn

thanks for sharing, a good number of us are passionate-loyal-dedicated Bills fans because of our strong family-community bond that unites no matter our other differences across across WNY, the country, home games, road trips with plane full of Bills fans wearing the colors...a lot of it started with our parents back in the AFL days and we have followed their leads..condolences to your family of Bills fans, may she rest in peace, and her spirit continue to be with you during the games.

thanks much, excellent points...I do expect Bills to draft a swing G-RT with the first pick as the draft is suppose to be deep in tackles and Bills will scrutinize for the ability to play both G-OT. I dont expect to start right away but perhaps in-season... I don't see the replacement for Morse being this pick, G-C, so this complicates what to do with Feliciano and I say keep unless someone blows our offer away.
I see Ike B as the LG and Feliciano retained as RG and backup C to Morse. Ford likely to be starter at RT until rookie is ready. Not ideal as you mention Ford is mediocre at best as OT and much better at G which should help the running game.

more cuts coming, market glut a coming to match the cap cut...including our own guys...the stars will get paid but as far as the lunch pail guys they may have to wait and sweat it out...

no...have to expect more of these including some of our own...should be a buyers market which reflects the cap going down,

Resistance from NFLPA. I think adding a game is very hard until scheduling issues are under control and full stadiums are possible for all teams. With expanded schedule is better for NFL to accept starting before Labor Day and extra bye weeks. Players will be healthier and there will be more possibility of spaces for reschedules.
yeah I agree that an extra bye week makes sense; rest and recovery first and then it adds flexibility for the Thurs nite scheduling where you can have teams avoid playing on only 4 days of rest and preparation and instead have them play that Thurs nite game coming back from a bye week...and then have the Super Bowl played deeper into Feb where the game is played the night before the presidents day holiday - a Monday, a federal holiday.

CBS - Brent, Phyllis and Irv with Jimmy the Greek - one man still standing - very little Bills coverage other than the score or quick highlight featuring the NFC team scoring due to CBS being the NFC network back in the day...memories...may he rest in peace

it does work...from the memory banks
lou saban used to do that some back in the day...he moved Ike Harrison from WR to CB (starter) and also moved Bo Cornell from RB to LB (another starter) and local legend Paul Maguire led the country in TD receptions at the Citadel and became an NFL LB-punter and then broadcaster and all of that
Ken Jones was a 2nd round pick (1976) and he switched from DL to OL = served as a head football coach at LaSalle Senior High School in Niagara Falls fpo several years
We also moved Jason Peters from TE to LT and the rest is history.
We also moved another second round pick (2011) Aaron Williams from CB to safety before he got hurt and had to retire

I kind of wish Frazier had gotten the Texans job, we would have gotten 2 number 3 picks and the D is in good hands overall with coach McD and maybe a change would do the D good. Our D line coach was the Panthers D coord as well so we are well stocked coaching that side of the ball..which makes me feel better that Daboll was not a prime candidate to move on...their loss is our gain.
judging by the number of interviews... interesting that Eric Bieniemy had another year of consideration and no job.
wonder if he has been given an offer and turned it down or does he interview poorly and suffers from the stigma of basically running Andy Reid's offense for him.

spotrac versus over the cap...comparisons, likes-dislikes, comments, preferences...what say you ?
-
GB = Wisc boy, his boyhood dream, just need to make cap space - the favorite landing spot for multiple reasons
Tenn - contender, solid QB, no state tax - they can use Clowneys cap space for him - choice # 2
his two bros play for Pitt - but one plays his position and the qb situation is unclear and they got cap issues - so...NO
The Bills - the bronze medal winner I am afraid
Clev would be a shocker ?!?!
-
Josh is now a bigger boy, has played 4 playoff games including the AFC championship so I think the team needs a better backup than mentor given that Dabs and Dorsey are back for another season as well....if Cam Newton gets passed over for being a starter I would make the call if he is still sitting during training camp

198.2M for 2020
-
from what I gather the league is borrowing some money from future year caps to take the pressure off this seasons....still a significant drop and you know all pre-pandemic planning-extensions were based on the cap going up-up-up...the 17 game season, new TV contracts will likely jolt it, as well as attendance which was 2.1M down from 17M...hoping they keep the extra wild-card team and game per conference as done last season as well...
-
good trade for Colts, they gave a modest return, they have the cap to fit and the Reich and Wentz combo seems comfortable and productive.
Colts have a better O-LINE and overall O so it makes a lot of sense plus Philly got him out of the NFC away from the Bears who needed to overpay to get Wentz and likely passed on the deal.
Eagles still hit with a 33M dead cap in 2021 and maybe some more in 2022...they are still in cap jail..
Reich and Wentz sounds like a German Law Firm...

todays BN says Levi Wallace will not be given a RFA tender offer making him an UFA, not necessarily closing door but one foot out the door...not likely to give the job to Dane Jackson (7th round pick) and fully expect some competition and that position needs it...
