I believe the assumption is that Watt can be signed for cheaper since he is still chasing a ring. Whereas Miller already has his ring, and will be more likely chasing the highest contract. Plus I'd personally rather have Watt than Miller. Think he'd be better in the locker room. So no, I aint waiting.

Someone says this every year too.

Yep and teams know how to maneuver that spending vs accounting pretty well.

They matched the offer, no? Dang, I bet the 24 yr old, Gen Z hotties are just lining up for this kind of sweet talking! "Hey baby, you know Buffalo has some cool buildings from 1910 to look at? Don't you want to live there now? What's the problem? It had a ton of wealth... 120 years ago!"

The Salary Cap is a myth. The Saints are $100M over cap, and looking at their ledger, have no way of getting under cap AND fielding any sort of team. But they are in that situation EVERY year. And just like every other year, they'll figure out a way to do it.

And it's not just that the Front Offices are doing it for them. Brady has DIRECT influence on players being signed (see: Antonio Brown, Rob Gronkowski). He says "Go get my friends" and they bring them in. That is more control than Watson or Wilson or Rodgers have ever asked for.

How great would it be if Rodgers referenced this post during his next appearance on the Pac McAfee show?

The Buffalo Inferiority Complex will always be a thing. Especially when it gives TBD board members a chance to hate on a woman.

Maybe. Sure, players can be better in their prime than at an older age. But irrc, he has never played as many snaps in a season as he did last year. So its kinda a double whammy.

What is this even supposed to mean?

Completely different context and situations. edit: you can "laugh" at the post as a way to dismiss it without having to publicly lose the argument. But if you need me to type it out to explain it to you slowly, you are talking about a couple of rookies who didnt want to come to Buffalo. Whereas Watt is a 10 year vet who has been a good soldier and is high priced at the end of his contract, and wants to find greener pastures. Completely different.

I think the idea is, if he came to Buffalo where we have a decent rotation, and he didnt have to play 91% of the snaps, he could stay fresher and perform better.

You are in top form trolling in this thread.

I'd like to see it for one of our Alternative uniforms. The home crowd would go NUTS. And I love our new uniforms. But if we are going to go with an Alternative set for a game or two each season, I like this over the All-Reds, and even the 60s throwbacks.

Yeah, the GB and Pitt just seem like lazy takes. He's from Wisc, and his brother plays in Pitt. So what. We could get there by releasing Butler and Jefferson too. I wouldnt mind keeping Addison around. He was the best of the under-performing bunch.

Mike Shanahan's wife wouldn't come here either. I also seem to remember from my childhood in the 80s that Andre Reed's wife was very unhappy here and almost caused him to leave in Free Agency.

I've said the same thing. Cutting Jefferson and Butler saves us $12.5M Give JJ $9-10M and save $3M to spend on the OL.

lol, not really

Astros really brought a ton of bad sports karma to Houston. Texans fall apart. Rockets in shambles.

Considering he played something like 90%+ of the snaps for Houston last year, I absolutely agree. Less snaps would keep him fresher and up his production. And while I'm sure he'd like less snaps, I dont think he'd be happy being depth. He still wants to start, and then be on rotation. Just my guess.

We'll never allow him to vacation in Buffalo in peace!

Happily married to the hottie

Why would he? Assuming they re-sign Dupree, JJ doesnt even start there. And Ben is on his way out in a tough division, so they arent guaranteed contenders.

They cant. Not at his current contract hit and with only one year remaining, and everyone knowing they pretty much had to release him. Plus, that's a really dirty way to handle your star player and historically "good soldier".

One down.
