Strangest Bills Jersey You Own

Not the Bills, but I wonder how many Ron Mexico jerseys are still out in the wild. -
How iconic was Bruce Smith’s flu game against the Steelers in the 1996 playoffs? https://buffalonews.com/sports/bills/rodgers-has-flu-it-once-felled-bruce-smith-in-playoffs/article_e79dfc6b-48d8-5e49-9acb-728ce300a618.html I’ll give you a hint: he let his teammates down and we lost. And, yes, Bruce Smith has singlehandedly decided playoff games in his career.

Tremaine Edmunds OTAs press conference 5/25

Anyone ask him about his teammate Star? -
This one’s easy. Jason Peters.

No. Vet minimum for him would be $1.05M. He’s has had 3 years of declining production. No team has traded for him and the Eagles only want a 7th rounder. Why? Because no GM is willing to pay him $8M per season. My guess is he gets a 1 year deal of $2-3M. It’s going to a lot closer to vet minimum than $8M. It’s a year salary cap is artificially depressed. His FA will occur in 2022, that’s when he’ll cash in. In the meantime, he’ll need to do whatever it takes to maximize his production beforehand, even accepting a pittance of a 1 year salary.

He’s probably going to be cut post June 1st. My guess is Beane will get him to sign a 1 year deal a little north of vet minimum. Because this is what Beane is best at. It’s a prove me deal on a playoff team with one of the best QBs in the NFL throwing to you. Plus, competition is minimal. Gives more time for Knox to develop. There’s few other decent situations for Ertz to enter. It’s either the team is set at TE, they are a bottom feeder, or they have no cap room. If a team really needed him, they would’ve traded for him. It sounds like the asking price is low.

Its Official. Dan Morgan new Carolina assistant GM
Saint Doug replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I specifically listed players that were FA signings from 2018 onwards. Morgan was hired in 2018. Care to point out which names were hired before him? You said “many”, so I expect to see a bunch of names. And while you’re at it, can explain how he has done a better job than the average Director of PP. Given the number of FA signings per year, seems like the Bills were flinging crap at the side of a barn and seeing what stuck. Now, I certainly don’t know what his role was in signing each of these players, or whether his mandate was to sign as many as possible, but he was the Director. -
Its Official. Dan Morgan new Carolina assistant GM
Saint Doug replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Josh Norman, Tyler Kroft, Matakevich, Barkley, Addison, Trent Murphy, Jefferson, Deshawn Philips, Nskekhe, Frank Gore, Jake Fisher, EJ Gaines, Eli Harold, Spencer Long, Seniorise Perry, Maurice Alexander, Quinton Spain, LaAddrian Waddle, Yeldon, Lee Smith, Derek Anderson, Chris Ivory, Julian Stanford, Bodine, Vontae Davis, Marshall Newhouse, Jeremy Kerley, Terrelle Pryor, Vernon Butler, Taiwan Jones, and AJ Klein have all been underwhelming. Mitch Morse was never supposed to be this lacking. This guy was supposed to be elite. True, Brown and Philips were good signings, but not good enough to be still on our team. That leaves us with Andre Roberts (good signing, but nothing to get excited over), Daryl Williams (hardly much knowledge had to be gathered for this signing as he came from a former team), Star is OK (but the Carolina background just signifies coaches signing familiar players), Feliciano (good signing!), Cole Beasley (love the signing), and Diggs (elite singing!, but trading away a 1st meant Beane was likely in the drivers seat with this one). The Bills seem to sign, not a handful, but usually a crowd of FAs. The vast majority do not contribute much and a few are great. So, do you have any data that Morgan was responsible for signing great/good professional players at a better rate than the average Director of PP? -

No big loss. Next man up. -
In his drafts, Beane has clearly displayed he drafts for need with his 1st rounders or 1st picks. 2018, QB and MLB. 2019, Ed Oliver, DT. 2020, 2nd round, Epenesa, DE. 2021, DE. I do agree that he may pick BPA in later rounds, but it’s usually need for the first pick. Of course, in the beginning, we had many needs. But, his picks of DE in the last 2 drafts are very telling.
-
He can go. Our director of PP hasn’t really been all special. Pros joining our team haven’t had huge impacts. The exception to this would be Diggs, but I doubt Morgan played the major role in this trade. If he had anything to do with it, I will grant him the Cole Beasley addition. Otherwise, our pro additions have had limited impact.
-
Simple reason. These guys will be playing guard, and likely excelling at it, before they even sniff playing tackle.

Miami considering trading down from 6
Saint Doug replied to BuffaloBills1998's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is a team that has 2 OCs. I believe the report. -
I get that the league shares revenue and the more money the Bills pull in, so do the other owners. I just don’t quite grasp how a new stadium is going to bring more money in. More expensive boxes? More restaurants/bars within? Short of bringing more bodies through the turnstiles, how is a shiny stadium going to extract more money out of the same number of people. If they want to raise prices, I get it. But, with Josh Allen chucking the ball, they can do this right now without all the fuss.
