A Few Thoughts About the Raiders, in no particular order
Estro replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
And threw it about 10 yards too far inside. If he threw that ball out toward the #s on the right side of the field, its a walk in as you noted. -
Mike Florio also has a penchant for cheering on and almost promoting worst case scenarios. Whenever it comes to potential roadblocks for the NFL whether it be legal, coronavirus, protests, liability issues, concussions.......Florio always seems to be rooting for or at the very least promoting chaos. Maybe its the lawyer in him, but the man is always "glass half empty" pontificating on his daily show. He could be hearing this but, damn, I hope this doesn't happen. MLB (without a bubble) NHL (bubble) NBA (bubble) Were all able to manage through their respective seasons without having to temporarily suspend the entire league. With much more money on the table and just general importance to the nation's psyche I see no reason the NFL can't persevere through these uncharted waters.

Bills vs Raiders—— Pick the score
Estro replied to SlimShady'sSpaceForce's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
29-23 Good Guys. -
Slightly yes. Hes been terrific, but its unrealistic to expect this pace to continue.
-
Listening to Jon Grudens post-game press conference the injuries seem to be piling up. I dont have all the names, but I know Bryan Edwards got hurt. They are already down Ruggs and they are missing a couple of OL as well. He seemed totally passed off at the # of injuries they've had
-
Tremaine Edmunds is consistently poor defending the run. Hes slow to diagnose and take a lot of bad angles. The TD pass to Woods should've been a 3 yard gain and tackle by Edmunds, but he took a terrible angle and ran himself out of the play. I know Edmunds gets a ton of love (physical freak, tall, young), but he has a long way to go. I think Milano is a way more valuable LB and I don't think its close

Predict the score Week 1 Jets at Bills
Estro replied to SlimShady'sSpaceForce's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
26-16 Bills. -
Which Bills did you draft in fantasy?
Estro replied to BuffaloBillies's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
None. Had my eye on Moss and Diggs, but both went for higher than what I was willing to pay. Both were auction drafts. -
Bills could give Diggs the same exact extension next yr.....2 years $54.5M and they would have him under contract for 5 years $89M for an AAV just under $18M per yr.

I don't think this is the year to cut a QB you invested a 5th round draft pick in. All reports are he hasn't looked good.....but this isn't the offseason to move on from a player to soon. A very limited offseason, and 0 preseason games, coupled with what many say is a very difficult offense to grasp is a very fair shake for a rookie QB. This team has a lot of big extension coming in the next 1-2 years and if they can develop Fromm into a serviceable backup QB they'd have that postion covered on the cheap for 4 years. Which is a great value. I've also noticed a bit of a crusade for Fromm to be cut among some of the WNY media due to his texts that came out after the draft. But didn't Allen have a similar blemish pop up on draft day? In the end I don't think that'll play a factor on whether they keep him or not. Cutting him now would be waaaay premature and him clearing waivers is slim IMO

Will Beane make a trade before cuts?
Estro replied to ColoradoBills's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I could see them flipping an OL for a late pick or even maybe a CB -
And don't forget they steal only protected after Tuesday. Even the protected practice squad players can be poached on Mondays, so no one is truly protected.

What would/should a Milano extension look like?
Estro replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Milano is a better LB, right now, than Edmunds. He was a 5th round pick so he doesn't have the same cache, but we know he's a key piece to the D. I remember Greg Cosell raving about Milano's skill set and said his talent has not gone unnoticed in league circles. So I think he will get paid. On the open market he probably could command $14+M per year, but with the uncertainty of where the cap is headed perhaps the Bills could strike a deal now, which gives him a healthy signing bonus now and in return he takes a couple million less per. I'm thinking a 4 year $48M extension would be a solid deal. That would essentially be a 5 yr. $50M deal when factoring in his $1M salary this year -
Breaking news: Dawkins signs four year deal worth $60 mill
Estro replied to BillsMafi$'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree, after the Tunsil and Lane Johnson deal I thought Dawkins would be looking for &17.5M or more per yr. This deal seems like a slight win for the Bills , especially considering they can throw some of the bonus $$$ into this yr. when his deal is still cheap for accounting purposes -
Of all the guys due for an extension in the next couple of years Milano sits atop the list for me. At this point in his career I think Milano is a much better LB than Edmunds. I think hes a huge link to our defense and the fact you can probably get him locked up for $11-$12M per makes it a win win for both sides. I hesitate when defensive players start coming in close to that $20M per # because I just don't believe philosophically that defensive players should make that much.....
-
so it seems the overall sentiment is: Tre White > '21 1st rounder, '22 1st rounder, avg. Player and an additional $10-12M in cap space. I guess I'm in the minority, but given our organizations success with FAs and drafts and Id be pretty pumped to see what they could do to this already solid roster with all those picks and cap savings. Whites a great player, but this would be an easy decision for me. That said do you guys agree with me that White is a more valuable piece than Jamal Adams.
-
Its always stuck with me that one of McDermotts first decisions with the Bills was to let Stephon Gilmorexwalk in FA. As far as I understand the Bills didn't even extend an offer to Gilmore, and then they used their 1st tound pick that yr to srlect White. I always thought that McDermott might be a coach who doesn't like to overpay at the CB position as his defenses seem yo perform well without having lock down CB's. It would definitely hurt to lose a player of Whites caliber short term, but what if the Bills could return a bounty like the Jets got for Adams. IMO, White is a more valuable player than Adams so I don't think a similar trade package is crazy. Like I said White is a great player, but hes also going to command about $20M a yr. soon.......and I just don't think its good business to spend that type of money on any 1 player, outside of a good QB. Id much rather have the $20M in cap space plus two 1st rounders, plus an avg. starting CB if a trade were to go down. I have a feeling it won't be well received on this forum, but I think it'd be a smart move. I think the Bills would still have a really good roster and with the extra cap space (by not signing White) and the extra draft capital (two 1st round picks) would be a lot more valuable than just 1 CB in Tre White.
