Klein for this year. He did fine when he stepped in for Edmunds for a couple games last year, and even immediately made some plays in his limited time, which Edmunds rarely does. Plus, Klein is set to make half of what we'll have to pay Edmunds. Then draft a replacement.

This dude is a JOKE

Glad to see this was the first post. Exactly where I am at as well. I wont (cant) watch the Four Falls of Buffalo documentary until after a SB win either.

I will take full responsibility for summoning @Chef Jim to the main board. Mods, I'll keep an eye out for my ban notice.

$10M after taxes. How you got it is irrelevant for this hypothetical. The question is what could someone expect to make off it a year without draining the principal? Is a 4% draw reasonable?

I'll put you back in your muddy swamp after you tell us what someone should expect to make on $10M

I went fishing and look what I hooked!

If you only earn $82,000 a year on a $10M principal, you dont deserve to have that money. Should easily be able to draw 3-4%/year, which is $300k-400k, and STILL have growth on the principal. So $10M is generational if you play it right. I know this because I've already planned on $10M being my "eff you" point if I ever hit the lottery or on crypto or whatever. Could do alright on $5M, but it would be close. Anything more than $10M is just gravy. Maybe ask @Chef Jim for advice.

A decade into his career, and well after he spent this first few years of his career telling everyone he was from Pittsburgh since that is where he finished HS. Never once corrected the media to say he's actually from Buffalo. Even all those times before he played the Bills twice a year. Eff Gronk. Good for him for all the success in his career and the money he has made, sincerely. But as a Bills fan, and Buffalonian, eff him.

Especially drafting #30 overall, and late in each round. I think we got decent production from Rousseau, all things considered. Very similar to what the Dolphins got out of his college team mate, Jaelan Phillips, who went #18 and the 1st DE off the board.

I pounded the board here that Von Miller was NEVER going to amount to anything in the NFL since he was too small to generate a pass rush against NFL LTs. That's my worst one. Runner-up goes to wanting Geno Smith in 2013. But in fairness, I was picking out of a complete pile of garbage QB class, and out of all of them, Smith is still in the NFL and even started games last year (yeah, it's a low bar but I'm grasping for anything here, haha). For his performance the first 2-3 seasons, you weren't wrong. Dude was a force outside, especially in Schwartz's defense. Rex ruined him.

Nah, unnecessary.

I think we can keep two of those three, and I think we should only keep two of those three. Being Knox and Oliver.

1. Extend/Restructure Diggs 2. Re-sign Knox this year 3. Re-sign Davis next year There are Josh's top-3 targets for years to come. If Singletary keeps developing, or we get a new RB, that would likely be the 4th target as it is. Then you can futz around with midround picks, free agents, whatever at slot and depth. Josh will help make any of those guys look better anyways.

I'd take the 3rd in a trade, but would also be interested in a player:player trade.

All we can hope for is the Josh Allen discount.

Happier to give that amount to Phillips than Vernon Butler.

IF he re-signs.

Thank you, Process and Sal! That makes more sense. Interesting, as that might hint at Butler being the DC-in-waiting? What do folks think about that? Also interesting that Butler was a High School team mate of McD. NFL coaching nepotism at every turn...

McBeane playing 4D chess giving our coaches such crazy titles our opponents arent even sure who is doing what!

Maybe a dumb question, but does that mean DEFENSIVE Passing Game coordinator? Or is he going to be working on the Offensive side of the ball too? I know Dorsey was our previous "passing game coordinator", obviously on the O side. I havent heard of that position for the Defense.

Sure, that's why I backed off before I started sounding too crazy. But others could/would argue it isnt that significant a difference, just a larger scale and more accepted. I just find the perspective interesting. It's like when I was a kid and learned of the USFL and it blew my little mind because the NFL seemed like it was a government institution that had been around since the beginning of time and would be around forever, and the game HAD to be played according to their rules. Learning it is just a private entertainment company that makes up its own rules of play and could face competition from other "football companies" was a real eye-opener. Kinda like what crypto is doing for some people in a way.

Haha, absolutely. But as mentioned above, everything we do is pretty ridiculous. Was man really meant to be working in an office, staring at a computer screen, just to earn some faith-backed money in order to live? Crypto, while new and mysterious and weird, isn't all that much different than what we already have. The dollar is backed by faith, I don't ever receive cash, but rather the digital amount reflected in my online banking portal goes up every 2 weeks per the order of my employer with no real cash exchanging. I then move those numbers to other places to pay my bills. I'll stop because I'm venturing into "I'm 14 and this is deep" edge-lord territory, and I only really believe a small part of it. But the point is, when you stop and pull back and look at so much of what we perceive to be these "concrete institutions", it's actually all ridiculous and built on a house of cards.

At this point, with the emergence of Knox and Davis, our slot guy is our #4 target. Maybe even #5 if Josh sticks to what he has learned about taking what the D gives and finding the RB to dump to on a regular basis. No way should we be spending that much money on our 4th/5th target, regardless if it is Beasley, CMC, or anyone else. Extend and restructure Diggs, extend/re-sign Knox since he is due this year, get ready to extend Davis, find a speedy slot guy in the mid-rounds of the draft. IMO.

Great signing for DB depth and STs at a very affordable cost. Nice warm-up signing for Beane to start the offseason. LETS GOOOOO
