You can't have a thread discussing the best guitar player in the world and not include this guy...

I would take the Jets defense over the Bills.

LOL Keyshawn Johnson.

Woody and Chris Johnson = Beavis and Butthead.

uSTADIUM on Twitter: "Tom Pelissero: The #Jets have worked through the compensation and contract for Aaron Rodgers. It’s up to him to let them and the #Packers know what he wants to do. Mike Garafolo said the #Jets won’t rush Rodgers." / Twitter

Look is also available for a trade now. Dov Kleiman on Twitter: "The #Rams would "Love to trade" QB Matthew Stafford, according to @mlombardiNFL on the @PatMcAfeeShow “Matthew Stafford is fully available.” https://t.co/7woH61xlx9" / Twitter

Adam Schefter on Twitter: "Jets are releasing WR Braxton Berrios at the start of the league year next week, per source. The two sides discussed a restructuring of his contract but were unable to reach agreement. His release will save $5 million against Jets’ cap." / Twitter

Reading this thread, I am reminded of the lunch lady from the Billy Madison movie. The sloppy Joes woman.

Zack Rosenblatt on Twitter: "This is a key point on the Aaron Rodgers talks: I'd heard that Woody Johnson preferred not to pay the full $59.5 million owed to him, so will be interesting to see how much/if Packers are willing to eat of that to make a deal happen." / Twitter I thought Woody was all in on getting Rodgers. I really hope this blows up in their faces. Obviously, it would be great for the Bills if Rodgers doesn't come to the AFCE. But Jets fans will go nuclear on Johnson if this fails. It will be great to read their forums if they don't get him. The news here in the NYC area is the Jets FO wanted Carr and he would have signed with the Jets, but Johnson wanted Rodgers instead. I will laugh my ass off if the Jets starting QB is Jimmy G, Brissett, Mayfield, White or Wilson. Big drop off after Rodgers and Carr.

This is/was expected. Poyer is north of 30 anyway. I would rather get rid of player even if he has a year or two left of good play rather than hold on to them too long. Edmunds is going to get a big pay day somewhere and it shouldn't be from the Bills. Build the offense around Allen and find decent replacements for Poyer/Edmunds at a cheaper price. It's a salary cap world so you can't pay everyone. Beane gets paid the big bucks to figure this stuff out so let's see if he can. Don't forget we get Hyde and Tre back. Tre should(hopefully) be back to his old self as a shutdown corner this year.

No to Mixon but if Bill suddenly became available. I would offer him a blank check and kick McDermott to the curb ASAP if I were Terry Pegula.

The history of the Bills says differently. Besides if the Bills can turn it around then so can the Jets. I hope they fail of course but if they get Rodgers, then it will be a challenge to win the AFCE.

I thought the Buffalo economy was responsible for Norwood kicking it wide right.

The KC game is on the road again. The Bills already played at Dallas, at New Orleans, and at Detroit on Thanksgiving recently. I doubt the league would have them play a 4th road game. If the Bills get another game on Thanksgiving, it will probably be the night game at home.

Dianna Russini on Twitter: "The Atlanta Falcons will not be pursuing QB Lamar Jackson, per sources." / Twitter

Giants place the tag on Barkley. Albert Breer on Twitter: "Source: The Giants have placed the franchise tag on RB Saquon Barkley. His franchise tender is worth $10.09 million." / Twitter

Looks like the Giants and Jones have reached an agreement. Jordan Schultz on Twitter: "Breaking: Daniel Jones and the #Giants are finalizing a four-year contract extension, sources tell @theScore. Jones guided the G-Men to their first playoff win in 11 years while compiling 22 total TDs and only 5 INTs. https://t.co/tnOGR36gqy" / Twitter

The AFC gets 9 home games this year. Just guessing here but since the Bills opened on the road last year vs LA, I would guess a home game week 1. If the Jets get Rodgers, then one of those games is a good bet to be on primetime with Allen and Rodgers. Also, with the NFCE on the schedule this year that means a few more possibilities for primetime games. Anyone from that division with the exception of Washington would make for a good primetime matchup.

Ian Rapoport on Twitter: "The #Ravens have officially franchised tagged QB Lamar Jackson, giving him the non-exclusive tag. https://t.co/MXzOHvJbWI" / Twitter

Beane needs to hit a HR in the draft/FA.

I wouldn't count on Breece to have a big impact in 2023. It took Barkley a couple of seasons before he regained his old form this past year.

Dan Graziano on Twitter: "I’m told the Jets contingent on the way to California includes team owner Woody Johnson, GM Joe Douglas, head coach Robert Saleh, offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett, possibly others." / Twitter

And then there is this. Dov Kleiman on Twitter: "Tom Brady might not be “done after all" with his playing in the NFL, according to @RichEisenShow who talked to people in Indy. "Folks are saying keep an eye on Miami." https://t.co/G554c1AI6p" / Twitter

In other QB news the Falcons and Ravens are discussing a trade for LJ. Dov Kleiman on Twitter: "Report: The #Falcons have “very real” interest in trading for #Ravens QB Lamar Jackson, a source told @MattLombardoNFL “The Lamar Jackson conversation between the Ravens and Falcons progressed tremendously in Indianapolis,” https://t.co/lUigtaoRJM" / Twitter
