What's his pitch? "Hey man - if you get no real money offers and are willing to take a huge discount bc we're broke as a joke - you should come here!"

IMO this should be locked. Unsubstantiated rumor from a Twitter nobody that everyone's running away with like it came from Schefter.

I can't speak for the guy - but I imagine the "dude" is in reference to taking the Kareem Hunt "rumor" seriously. Only one guy has mentioned it on Twitter and he's unverified and has less followers than some Bills fans I know. Not to mention, it doesn't make sense from a cap or "process" standpoint. Seems about as fake as it gets.

'nuff said.

I'm not so sure. James Conner, Kenyan Drake, Chris Carson, Leonard Fournette, James White, Todd Gurley, Mike Davis, Matt Breida, and Malcolm Brown are all on the market as well. Not everyone's going to get top dollar.

11 pages for a "rumor" posted from an unverified account with 1700 followers. I know Bills fans with more followers than that 😑

How often do these rumors from no name accounts come true? Practically never.

I don't like this. He consistently put us in good field position. I don't think it's as simple as everyone thinks to put someone back there and have the kind of Pro Bowl production he had. Here's hoping tho.

On one hand - super cool to bring all 3 back. On the other - Beane said at the year end press conference that "this is not a Super Bowl Championship team yet". Using pretty much all of the cap to keep things the same instead of making improvements - it's hard to picture us taking that next step in overcoming KC in the AFC. Especially picking 30th each Round.

Yes, we aren't completely broke. But at 7.65 under, draft picks, and RFA's like Wallace, Bojorquez, and Boettger to sign - you're probably not fitting Feliciano in unless, like you said, he does more restructures. Which I'm not counting on until it happens. Just because something makes sense to us doesn't mean it's going to happen. See: Trent Murphy last season

Feliciano's a great Guard. But you pay your Right Tackle before you pay a Guard. And you pay your best Linebacker before you pay a Guard. And then you run out of money and the Guard is the odd man out. Sucks - but that's business.

I agree. Unless some other moves are made, Milano and Williams will be our biggest splashes in FA.

This has to be the number before the Milano and Williams deals, right? Slightly confusing because he lists others as the number before certain deals, but not us. Assuming this is the number after all the restructures before subtracting the cap hits of Milano (8 mil per spotrac) and Williams (6.15 per spotrac) - it looks like we're probably actually sitting at 7.65 under.

As a Rochesterian, there's nothing I'd like more than for Training Camp to happen at Fisher. And I expect a little more normalcy this season. But I don't see the league opening training camp to the general public as even a remote possibility. Even if they do, I imagine it would be extremely limited and requiring tickets that will go to sponsors and the like from the VIP tents.

I voted for Make an Offer but don't get into a bidding war. I was thinking that maybe instead of making offers to McKenzie as WR4 and Roberts as KR - we make an offer to Cordarralle Patterson to be both. Probably a crazy idea, but just a thought.

Two problems with @appoo's plan. First, we don't have Kenny Stills under a futures contract like Kumerow and Duke. We'd have to re-sign him. Second, Addison took a paycut to stay. It's not out of the realm of possibility that he's released after Training Camp after everything's said and done (like Murphy should have been). But if he were to be cut before then - they wouldn't have restructured him today.

Real nice. I valued his re-signing over Milano and Feliciano, tbh.

Cole Beasley? I'm not opposed to drafting a WR mid rounds. But we don't need to spend our 2nd Rounder on one to hop Gabe Davis on the depth chart. Diggs, Davis, Beasley should be our starting lineup. If you want to get someone to replace Isaiah McKenzie, cool. But not a 2nd and certainly not for someone to move above Davis.

If the reported Hughes restructure happens (on top of cutting Jefferson and restructuring Butler) - I could see Addison staying on (especially if he restructures also). I have this sinking feeling he's safer than most fans think he is. To me, it would be far less surprising for him to stick around then it was when we held on to Trent Murphy. And I don't think they'd move him until they were sure they had an upgrade in place opposite Hughes.

I think this would be another Addison like signing. We need somebody like Barrett, Lawson, Ngakoue, or Miller (if he becomes available). Someone who will step in and be an unquestioned immediate upgrade. Okwara *could* be that guy. But I don't think he's getting the locker room, the fans, or the media all that inspired - if that's the move.

This doesn't make much sense to me. All of those re-structure examples (including Diggs - who they quietly did some maintenance on his deal after being traded) have come on deals done within the year. Kind of a hard sell to come right back to those guys, don't you think? Guys like Hughes and Morse make way more sense for a restructure.

I mean - it's possible. But if that happens, they're not re-signing Mongo too.

That's fine. I'd have rather had Yannick Ngakoue, Von Miller, or Jadeveon Clowney anyways.

Good rule of thumb with this Watt stuff is if *anyone* says *anything* about him - it's probably been posted in here immediately 😝 But to the crux of the report, I'll say this: if JJ Watt really was getting 15-16 million offers from a contending team he's interested in signing with - he'd have signed already. I don't doubt there are teams who aren't in contention yet have a lot of cap space that are throwing out crazy numbers trying to get him to sign with them instead. And I don't doubt he'd like the teams he's really interested in to match those crazy offers. And that's why that report exists.
