Well, we wanted Moss to be like Harris. He was just incapable of doing the same thing.
-
Is he a Bill Belichick RB? Absolutely.
-
Truly appreciate doing all this leg work. 🙏 We're already a much more successful team than most on that list outside of KC (maybe Rams since they won a SB in there, but as even they would tell you: "Eff them picks"), so I dont see Comp Picks being the key to putting teams over the top. Or even the reason for keeping these teams good. Kinda worthwhile, and a nice bonus? Sure. Worth crafting your entire offseason plan and FA signings around? Absolutely not. IMO. Valid reason for fans to be picking up their torches and pitchforks? Absolutely not. IMO.

What's on your Mt. Rushmore of Sitcoms?

lol at dick van "*****" why not **** van ****? -
Lump is definitely their better song. Only a couple hits out of these guys, but a decent record all around. They recently popped back up on Reddit for an AMA like a week ago.
-
I dont disagree about waiting to see terms. That's what usually happens. One guy at a position signs, and then all the other FAs at that position sign. Same thing happened last week right after Poyer signed. All the other Safeties out there signed because the market was then set. I'm just not sure Comp Pick was in his thinking.
-
I'd be amazed if Beane would risk blowing the deal and losing out on a guy he wanted (Harris) over the possibility of getting the 105th pick in the draft.
-
The wailing and crying here over the mere possibility of losing a 3rd rd comp pick, when we dont even have Harris's contract numbers yet, is getting to ridiculous levels. Bills fans really need to disconnect and go enjoy Spring for a bit.
-
Honest question: Which top teams? And is it because they have a "method" or because good teams usually lose good players and are usually too overextended to add more back?
-
The longer it goes without getting his contract number released, the better it is for the Bills.
-
Harris upgrades Moss's spot. And Harris is a decent upgrade over Moss. I dont know. I look at the other teams at our level and dont see anyone making much bigger moves. KC, Cincy, Philly. Cincy and Philly have both lost way more than they signed this offseason. They cant even keep up with their FA losses. KC signed an ok OT, but lost two who have better stats/profiles. Tough being at the top. If you want to have a team that wins the offseason with a bunch of sexy FA signings, you need to be at the Bears/Texans/Dolphins levels. Or like we were during the drought. No thanks.
-
LOL, you guys and your comp picks. Honestly thought most of the comp pick talk was just sarcasm because of how little it matters. Getting your guys and shoring up the roster before the draft >>>>> Comp pick If we dont sign Harris then we likely need to use that comp pick on yet another 3rd round RB anyways, so it's all a wash. Worrying about comp picks is the new worrying about the salary cap. I'll just leave it to the pros.

Singletary -> Cook Moss -> Harris Going from a couple of mediocre backs out of smaller programs FAU and Utah, to higher ceiling talents out of UGA and Bama.
-
Patriots fans are not happy about this at all. Good taste in the comments here. Love to see it.
-
IMO Damien Harris isnt signed to replace Singletary. Cook was drafted to do that. Hines might see some action there too. Harris is signed to replace Moss/Josh, as the change of pace power back. I think the comparison and debate of Harris v Singletary is off track. They signed deals on the same day of the same offseason. That's about it. It's like if we were arguing Sherfield v John Brown.

It's not even 40% of posters. It's 10 posters making 40% of the posts here, crying at every chance they get.

Well this means no Zeke, and I'm fine with it since they are basically equal for what we need them for, and I'm sure Harris was cheaper. Now sign OBJ, or get Jeudy, and I'll be all set for when they inevitably draft Safety in round 1.
-
This is the RB market. Only one getting any type of money is Barkley and only because he got tagged. edit: And to anyone bagging on the Bills about this move, there is a reason he only got this deal and the market is so low for RBs.
-
Parents, dont let your kids grow up to be Running Backs.
-
Fair enough. There are certainly ways to do it better than the Bills. Just funny with Cincy and Philly being the examples used and the specific paths they took.
-
Beat me to it. Just shows how little the quoted posted understands about contracts and team building. Restructuring the way Josh and Von get restructured is a BONUS for the player. Players WANT to restructure that way. To say he wouldnt as some sort of punishment to the team is just silly.
-
For anyone that was attending a college in the 1997-1998 school year, it is a piece of our history.
-
I get it. It was also the official anthem at Sunny's in Fredonia while I was there. Great (hazy) memories and nostalgia.
-
Take it a step further, Cincy has a 1A and 1B because they got their QBs knee blown out and they tanked a season. If Buffalo fans want that, then I dont know what to tell them. Also, they wont have a 1A and 1B for long. They'll be lucky to get one more season out of them before losing at least one of them. For Philly, someone needs to list all the botched investments they made at WR before finally trading for Brown. And Bills fans can decide how they'd feel about Beane after all that. So to recap. If we want to be like Cincy or Philly, then we need to have Josh go down with a season ending injury and/or make a bunch of bad 1st round picks at WR before doubling down and investing even more into the position via trade from the other conference. Not a great plan either way, imo. I'll stick to being patient with Beane as he picks and chooses his opportunities.
