Very interesting stuff. Have you crunched all the position groups yet? -

Bills and McGovern discussing contract extension?
Sierra Foothills replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
They then tear up the 2 year deal they signed with Ty Johnson on March 11th and sign him to a new 3 year deal with more guaranteed money. -
This was a fun and interesting exercise. Thanks to all of the participants.

Well then, at the very least he should cut off his own thumb. -
Bills and McGovern discussing contract extension?
Sierra Foothills replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
But If I said Seppuku, very few people would know what I’m talking about… and it’s my bad joke (dagnabit). In all seriousness, when we signed MCGovern there were numerous people here saying that we signed the wrong Connor McGovern. -
Bills halt contract negotiations with Cook
Sierra Foothills replied to Returntoglory's topic in The Stadium Wall
Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that things are “not great” between Cook and the Bills, which seems obvious given the for sale sign in Cook’s yard. But Rapoport adds that Cook “will play for the Bills next [season].” https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-james-cook-will-play-for-bills-in-2025-despite-contract-impasse -

That’s a very solid take. What effect will the sweeping tariffs imposed by the current administration have on global economies? Also, what numbers should I play in Wednesday’s Powerball drawing? Thanks! -

Smithers? Is that you? Beane should just do the honorable thing and resign in disgrace… or commit harakiri. -

True but Watson was inarguably the best punt catcher in Buffalo Bills history. -

Butch Byrd, hands down. p.s. - This should be a poll. -

Raiders CB Jack Jones Released

If you can't get along with Pellegrino you can't get along with anyone. He has a reputation as being totally transparent with his players and has a bubbly personality. -
Raiders CB Jack Jones Released
Sierra Foothills replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
So no trade partners... he was released outright. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/raiders-waive-jack-jones-re-sign-five-erfas -
Is there any proof that Milton was close to being released? Obviously his market value wasn't high but that doesn't automatically equate to no other possible trade partners. In answer to your question (and regardless of our opinions) Milton's worth exactly what was paid for him... which is not much but also more than nothing. My "steel sharpens steel" comment was in a post that didn't mention even Milton... and in fact that specific post addressed the practice of "clearing the way" for an undisputed starter. I said verbatim: I always questioned the practice of "clearing the way" for the undisputed starter. 1) It contradicts the "steel sharpens steel" principle. 2) It brings into question the mental toughness of the presumed starter. That said, we've seen it done many times. That said, you don't have to agree with my assessment. There are numerous stories regarding the Milton trade that state that Vrabel wanted to remove any perceived threats in Drake Maye's mind. That was the bigger point in my post. And if you don't think there are legitimate examples of "steel sharpening steel" (i.e.- legitimate competitions which improve both players) then we'll simply not agree.

As was posted upthread, the Cowboys received Milton and a 7th round pick in return for that 5th. In other words the Cowboys got Milton simply by moving down 47 spots. Most people feel that Dallas was the team that won the trade.

Bills push to host a future NFL Draft.
Sierra Foothills replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'd like to think so Mark, but I'm skeptical at best. Lambeau Field is about 3 miles from downtown Green Bay. Virtually all of the draft cities since the NFL abandoned Radio City Music Hall in 2014 have been in downtown/city centers. I think the only exception was when Arlington hosted it. Arlington is about 20 miles from downtown Dallas. I have a hard time imagining a quality draft being held in Orchard Park. It's a sparsely populated suburb. I hope I'm wrong. I hear this talk about stadium-centered development in Orchard Park but honestly, how much development is gonna be spurred by 10-12 dates per year? Again I'm skeptical and hope I'm wrong. I'm pretty sure the number of hotel rooms in Rochester is irrelevant. If I was going to attend a draft I'd want to go to a city which has lots of different entertainment and recreational options. I believe the distance from Buffalo to Orchard Park is problematic. I think the draft would actually be a lot better in Buffalo than in Orchard Park, whether it was held in the baseball stadium, the Sabres arena, or even Shea's. Again, I hope I'm wrong. Maybe they'll throw Orchard Park a bone simply because of the new stadium being built but I can't see WNY being host to a second draft. -

Don’t forget, Amari had that wrist injury so the Bills would want to check that out before making any decisions on remedial surgery.
