Somebody check on the "we're trading for Mack/Fuller!" crowd. Hope they're okay.

He should send a fruit basket to Bill Belichick and Nelson Agholar 😆

Not sure. And I'm not saying we should have paid them given our cap situation. But Philip Lindsey and David Johnson are head and shoulders above anyone we have IMO.

Wow. They have 2-3 guys that would be an upgrade over everyone we have 😟

Good point. I don't know. That could change things.

Right. I mean, I could be wrong and they move Gilliam to the bench after picking someone else up. But I got the feeling McDermott really liked him and what he provided in the blocking game as well as Special Teams. As evidenced by him always dressing over Kroft last season.

The only issue I have with this is McDermott ran almost exclusively with one pass catching TE and two blocking TE's on gameday. It was almost always Knox, Smith, and Gilliam with Kroft on the bench. So if we signed Hollister to replace Smith - he's probably still rolling with Gilliam and Knox. You're not going to replace Kroft's place on the bench with Zach Ertz.

I had the same feeling and reached out to him. Seeing his response, I wish it would have been shared on Twitter as much as Albright's tweets were.

I mean, I understand the Sammy hate from Bills fans. But this isn't even a question. Age aside, Sammy was playing a couple months ago. C.J. Spiller hasn't been in the NFL in 4 years. If the question were Sammy at 28 or C.J at 28 - that would be a different story.

I was one of the few that were Team Barkley in the 2013 Draft where we took EJ Manuel. Was a big fan of him in college and liked having him as our backup. You could tell he brought a lot to the locker room and especially Josh. Will always be a fan and will never forget him spinning around his coat during 'Renegade' in Pittsburgh. Thanks for everything, Matt. God speed!

I mean, I wouldn't be opposed. But we already have Stefon Diggs, Cole Beasley, Emmanuel Sanders, and Gabriel Davis. Unless he's signing for minimum and okay with being the new Isaiah McKenize - this makes little sense.

Considering Beane said today that he feels really good about Levi Wallace competing with Dane Jackson for the #2 CB spot and that we don't have much cap space - I see about a 2% chance they back the brinks truck up for a player of that quality. Gonna be a bidding war.

I wonder if he'll be driving his Grandmother's 1997 Toyota Camry with 170,000 miles on it to Orchard Park 😆

How are you still going with this ratio? Has one person agreed with anything you've had to say? Quit while you're behind.

I'm assuming he saw we re-signed Taiwan Jones and threw a sh-tfit because there's a Running Back in FA he likes and is now realizing that it's unlikely. Though he probably should have realized that we were always more likely to draft another one to replace Yeldon rather than spending valuable cap space on a vet to hop Singletary and Moss.

What you, me, and anyone else think's doesn't matter. It's what Beane thinks and how he operates. And not spending to the cap and hampering yourself in the future is something he has been about and has talked about since day one. And he's done a pretty good job as a whole with that mindset. Sorry it's not as fun for you this offseason.

What are you even talking about? The extension for Matakevitch was a restructure to free up cap space this year in disguise. Upset we signed Taiwan Jones? Get over it. Most teams do these kind of signings every season. It's just not as paid attention to because it's not as sexy. Maybe when Beane said at the end of the year that we wouldn't be big players in FA this offseason and that he was more focused on re-signing our own - you should have heard that instead of hearing we were going to sign RB's and other toys of the like. The best teams don't go ham in Free Agency. Get used to it. It's a good thing.

Croom (probably after Jones or his agents told him how infinitely stupid it was) has deleted that tweet and is now back tracking.

My only issue with this is we only signed Trubisky to a 1 year deal and Beane himself said he doesn't see him here longer than that. We'd have Josh Allen and no one behind him next season.

Dumb. So, so dumb. He had a decent season. But he played his hand too hard and now I don't really feel sorry for him anymore.

Beane isn't the type of guy to announce a move unless either he or is his agent let him know it was done. Going out of his way to put egg on his face isn't a good look IMO. Real good way to get it rescinded.

Ah, *****. You're right. Forgot about that. Thanks for the correction.

If Roseman wasn't happy with the initial offers - I think the best we can hope for is he concedes to it. Offering less would be a really good way to kill it completely. Personally, I'm not offering higher than a 4th. If it takes the 30th pick in the 3rd Round, I could live with it. But anything beyond that is absolute crazy talk given his age and that we'd have to pay him on top of it. Side note - what if it isn't Ertz at all? What if it's Philip Lindsey? I'd be thrilled with that too.

I was just going to come here and say I think that the timing of not only the presser but the Chargers signing Cook signals Roseman is being unreasonable and everyone's out. But now I'm hoping the Chargers signing Cook has brought him back down to earth. Imagine being Ertz and being told you can talk to teams about a trade - only for Roseman to be like "yeah, we're not really interested in trading you for less than an unreasonable price". Guys gotta be so pissed right now.

This, in conjunction with Beane holding a presser at 2, which is believed to signify the end of our spending - leads me to believe we're out 😢
