We're sitting at 8.9 before adding in the numbers of Case Keenum, Jordan Phillips, Shaq Lawson, Marquel Lee, and Matt Barkley. And we need 8 for Draft Picks. So we're gonna have to do some cap maneuvering just to get the Draft Picks in, paid, and under the cap. Beane essentially said at his presser that we're pretty much done after the QB moves come in and that if he adds, it'll have to be guys looking for opportunity over money to improve their stock in next year's FA. More likely than not, any of those moves will happen after the Draft and almost definitely won't be anyone that will be all that exciting.

They aren't cutting Matakevitch either. He's maybe our best Special Teamer. And in losing Taiwan Jones on that side and A.J. Klein on the LB side, we're a little thin at both the roles he provides. Cody Ford isn't going to be released with Kromer coming in. They made a large investment in him and they'll hope that Kromer can bring more out of him. And especially not when we're thin at O-Line depth already and might be losing Ryan Bates too.

This confirms Matt Barkley will replace Davis Webb's role in the QB room.

It's not an exact number, but per Brandon Beane as far as the cap goes "we're right up on it". He says we'll be addressing QB early next week (hopefully Barkley is replacing Webb and not Trubisky) and then it's going to be "guys who value opportunity" later on in FA after the Draft. Might be some tiny Marquel Lee like signings between now and then, but we're pretty much done.

I think you're just thinking about the difference between the $150 "Limited" Jerseys and the $120 "Game" Jerseys. I've gotten Game Jerseys from each place and they're the same. The Limited Jerseys are more expensive, of a different material, and have numbers and letters stitched on.

McKinnon, possibly. Penny, probably not. Patterson, DEFINITELY not. They were never going to allocate much more than a few million for a limited role behind Singletary at the RB position. And now after all we've spent and listening to Beane's presser, sounds like even a McKissic like contract is out. My guess is it's a Day 3 pick at this point with a guy who has some speed a receiving ability.

None of those things are happening. Brandon Beane basically said he's done in Free Agency and that he's basically going to make low cost deals for people looking for opportunity over money as they really don't have any, after the Draft.

Breece Hall is going somewhere between the bottom of the 1st and the mid 2nd Round. We have too many holes to fill on this team to take a RB where it would take to get Breece Hall. And again, with the way Singletary played down the stretch, I find it hard to believe after sticking with him through his struggles that they're going to look at someone to usurp him now when his stock is at it's highest. If a Breece Hall was something they were thinking about, they'd have never made a deal with JD McKissic. They're just going to bring in someone to support him and someone who's a better receiver when they need to take Singletary off the field. A low cost FA or a pick no higher than Round 4 - as the first 3 picks will need to be used to address the holes at CB, WR, and O-Line (especially if we lose Ryan Bates).

Doubt it. Gordon was available and they made a deal with McKissic. I also don't see them signing a name or anyone that takes carries away from Singletary. When Singletary was the primary ball carrier, he looked the best he ever has, closing out the season. They're looking for someone who can be a good receiving back and a good blocker on some 3rd downs and when Singletary needs a breather. Probably closer to a Darrel Williams type FA. And Beane said he's offering opportunity to increase your stock for the following season over money now as "they're right up on it (the salary cap)". So unless Gordon's okay with taking minimum pay and a small role taking a backseat to Singletary - I don't see it.

Say it with me: Tremaine Edmunds isn't going anywhere. Tremaine Edmunds was never going to be traded. If he is not extended before this season (which I still see as a large possibility) and he has a subpar season than maybe, MAYBE next season. But Beane flat out said he disagrees with you naysayers and McDermott has never wavered in his faith in him as the QB of the #1 Defense in the league. Hell, Beane said during his press conference today that he consulted Tremaine during FA on Defensive signings. It's one thing to try to wish something into existence. It's another entirely to expect unrealistic moves like these and get upset when they don't happen.

I think it's altogether possible that after McKissic spurned them and Chandler Jones, Yannick Ngakoue, Za'Darius Smith, and Uchenna Nwosu all went to other teams, and fans started to get impatient while everyone was getting better - he put the pedal to the metal, upped their offer, and made sure he got it done. But it was already in the works and I don't believe for a second that McKissic alone was the deciding factor to pay Von.

Geesh...

Hearing Beane say that Von's agent reached out to them makes me feel that he was one of the reported "Big Name" Free Agents that made their interest known at the Combine.

Yeah, I mean, we lost Davis Webb too. So maybe he's our 3rd guy that we carry on the Practice Squad just to have in the locker room again. At least that's what I'm hoping.

I'm fine with it for what it means to the locker room. He was loved and did a lot for team building. But if he's our primary backup.... yikes. I really hope we're gonna carry 3 this year and he's a replacement for Davis Webb and not a replacement for Mitch Trubisky.

Geesh, Thad Brown doesn't think much of him....

They don't offer the Away Jersey's on NFLShop. I wanted one of those as I've already got a couple Blue Home jerseys, but no White ones. And how are the Official Nike Replica Jerseys on the Buffalo Bills Shop different than the Official Nike Replica Jerseys on NFLShop.com? 🤨

Woods grew up and played High School Football in Southern California. He was a College Superstar at the University of Southern California. So when the LA Rams of Southern California came calling with a massive contract, he wanted to go home. He wasn't unhappy in Buffalo. Wasn't a jerk here. Never said anything bad about the fans or the area. He's just a Southern Cali boy who had an opportunity to go back to Southern Cali. As a matter of fact, he had good things to say about Buffalo today:

Gonna be a long one, but here's what I'm looking at: QB : Will be added late in FA. Just like last year, they'll go with who they think is the best available option when the QB carousel stops spinning and the starting jobs are filled. RB: We tried to fill this role with JD McKissic. So i'd expect a similar move. Either a FA like a Darrel Williams or a Jerick McKinnon type or a pick no higher than Round 3, more likely Round 4 or 5. They aren't going to bring in a guy to 50/50 share with Singletary or move him to the bench with his stock being the highest right now coming off him looking the best he ever has in the last few months of the season as the primary ball carrier. WR: A speedy option will be added in Round 1 or 2 of the Draft. Gabe Davis and Isaiah McKenzie have earned a promotion and increased reps. But you still need another stud to replace both Beasley and Sanders, especially with the number of 4 WR sets we run. I think we'll keep 6 instead of 7 this season and OJ Howard will see a much larger number of reps than Tommy Sweeney ever has. OL: This is interesting. I feel like if we can retain Ryan Bates, our Starting Line is set with Saffold replacing Daryl Williams. But the depth is shaky. We could sign a lower priced veteran Tackle late in FA they like and a 4th-5th Round Guard they like. But if they lose Bates, then we have to Draft someone for the Interior by Round 3 or sign a starter. I wish we'd have just tendered him at the 2nd Round. We'd have him at the cost of 1.5 mil more and no one would be sniffing him. Now I don't see us being able to retain him for less than it would have cost us to tag him at that number. And we aren't even going to try and match it if it gets to that number, which I expect it to. LB: I've liked what I've seen from Tyrel Dodson and Andre Smith in a pinch. I feel like Dodson can give us just as much as AJ Klein did. Replace Klein's roster spot with a late round pick Beane likes. CB: Round 1 or 2, most likely Round 1. It's a deep draft for CB. But we need a stud opposite Tre White to shut things down. Go out and draft a stud who can provide more than Levi did. If there's a decent CB available near the end of FA that wants to take a sweetheart deal to play here for added depth, by all means. Punter: Late Round Pick or UDFA to compete with Haack. I'd be interested in Araiza if he could be had in Round 5. I don't think he'll go as high as 3 as some are suspecting, but I don't know if he'll be there at the end of Round 5. Long story short - it's going to be the Draft and bargain FA's who are a fit from here on out.

Minus: DE Jerry Hughes DE Mario Addison DE Efe Obada DT Harrison Phillips DT Vernon Butler DT Justin Zimmer But the replacements are definitely upgrades! Why not? We lost 6 guys and brought 5 guys in. We carried 6 DE's on the 53, we're at 5 now. We carried 5 DT's on the 53, we're at 5 now. It's possible Star Lotulelei is a post 6/1 cut, but it's just as likely he'll stay IMO. Everyone else will be here.

Von Miller Bills Jerseys just popped up on the Bills store, just grabbed an Away Jersey. https://shop.buffalobills.com/collections/player_von-miller

As long as it's under 1.5 million more. I don't see them placing the tender they placed on him instead of the 2nd Round tender which was 1.5 million more and then paying more than that to match the deal. Beane sets his prices and doesn't deviate.

I'll be ordering mine the second they become available. I keep checking, but they haven't been up yet. Hoping they do an Away Jersey for him too. I have a Home Josh Jersey and have been meaning to get a White one - but they only offer that one for a select few players.

The eagle has landed!
