I hope Shaq can stay on as the 5th DE. Last year I think we kept 6, so he should have a good chance. I'm glad he got paid, but it's cool to see him want to return so badly and be that happy to be back with the Bills.

Just 2? Sure

Sorry, this is some playing-afraid/playing-not-to-lose stuff. I understand the risks as well, and dont want to take any unnecessary chances, but almost every other starting QB played last week and Wilson was the one and only injury. So if that's your point, then you are telling us the odds are in our favor. There is a difference between being in running/conditioning shape, and being in hitting shape. Also, how dare you compare our big, beefy boy with soft, little Wilson. Josh isnt getting a no-contact bone bruise. He DELIVERS the bone bruises.

I would guess somewhere around $15-20M/year Fred Warner who was a 3rd round pick in Edmunds class just signed a 5/$95M deal Shaq Leonard is 5/$98M

Yep. I think the Bills want to keep him, but at the right price. I'm sure Beane has made an offer of some sort, likely right around Edmunds' current 5th year option number of $12M/season. And I would also assume Edmunds and his agent think (know) they could get way more on the open market. And that position prompted the drafting of Bernard, just in case.

Players would also be the first to tell you they dont need Training Camp or Practice either. Dont believe the players. They're lazy when it comes to this stuff. I'm gonna need a link to some film and analysis on that.

Big disagree on the bold. The coaches may have a vanilla game plan, but every player in a game, even if it is preseason, is going to go 100%. Because they dont know if the guy across from them is trying to make the team and going to go 100% too. And if they dont, then not only will they get dominated, but there is a huge risk for injury. In all my playing days across multiple sports, we always saw the most injuries when we'd have 75% play-throughs. And nothing in practice can simulate a real game. The starters need to get in and bang at least once before the regular season.

I agree with @ColoradoBills that Knox will end up signing a deal that is friendly to both sides (a la Milano). However, if there is anyone who we might use the Tag on, I believe that would be Knox. The Tag number on a TE is just under $11M. Which is effectively the same as a 5th year option would cost on a 1st round pick. No brainer to use there if we need to kick the can another year. All the other guys play too expensive a position to Tag.

That's not completely true. Bruce's beef was with all the Boselli Stans online who kept banging on one game instead of his career. Bruce has been otherwise completely supportive of Boselli getting the nod.

I'll just take this opportunity to say two things: 1. I agree with Deion. 2. RYAN FITZPATRICK FOR HOF!

This is getting into "Worse than EJ" territory.

I'm still trying to figure out the new preseason plan across the league now that they're down to 3 preseason games. It USED to be, the 3rd game was the dress rehearsal with all the starters, and then the 4th game was for all the backups and deep roster battles. Not sure if they bump it up and have week 2 be the starters rehearsal, and week 3 be the backup battles. Or if we wait until week 3 to play the starters. Either way, I think they will get SOME time. They need to get out and have at least 1 series of live, full speed action. I think playing the starters this week makes the most sense.

Von Miller #93 Doofus McCorkle #85 The list has officially jumped the shark. This used to be OK for entertainment purposes. Especially since it is player-voting. See who the players think deserves it. But McCorkle making this list AT ALL, let alone ahead of Von Miller, is an absolute joke and completely discredits what little validity it ever had.

I dont think (m)any trades happen. Other teams know the Bills are loaded with talent and will be cutting several decent players. I get that trading locks the player in as opposed to letting them hit free agency, but I think teams will be willing to take that risk and save their assets.

As of today it is asking me to create an Audacy account and sign in? This is a lot of bull#### just to listen to ads with a little radio sprinkled in.

So about 200 more days.

The app stinks in general. There will be times when I try to use the app and get stuck in a commercial loop where it never goes to the live show and just replays the same commercials over and over.

I love that Beane doesnt fall for it for a second.

I would normally be all over this, laughing at the Jets' expense. However, we are just starting preseason and I do not want to bring any bad juju to the Bills so I will simply say "that sucks for Becton and the team".

I am one of the larger Edmunds detractors here, and even I tend to believe this. As much as I would like to upgrade the position with a more instinctual player, I'm not sure that Smith could play in the pass game like Edmunds does. Smith seems to be more of a "classic" MLB thumper. Whereas we are looking for the next Luke Kuechley.

What type of defeatist attitude bull#### is this?!? I think you mean low 30s, as in 31.

Every thread can be an Edmunds thread if you apply yourself.

Also, breaking deposits up into smaller amounts to try to avoid that reporting is called Structuring, and will get someone caught quicker and in more trouble than if they just deposited the whole thing at once.

Kiko for McCoy. 2nd best trade of Whaley's tenure (Hughes being #1). Thank you, Chip Kelly, for your ego and incompetence.

Then youd be remembering wrong. He killed more than a few drives in his day. I remember specifically talking about how it's ok for Defensive players to take a penalty, but Richie was killing drives.
