I considered that too but not really a 4-3 linebacker, right?

I would think he would be a 4-3 DE here 

[McBean]

If True, bs on McDermott.

 

Beane needs to be allowed to do job.

 

A poster said it earlier, but this is why you hire the GM FIRST then coach...not visa versa.

The KC player imo is one of the RBs not named Hunt. Bills really wanted to acquire a RB per reports. Peters does not sound like a McD player and I can’t see Chefs getting rid of him even with his issues.

Could also be Justin Houston to give KC more cap space.

 

West would be a good pick up for cheap.

Message board posters battling it out over their anonymous sources.

 

My anonymous source says this is awesome. 

 

I always thought the "P" in LAMP was for "post," but my anonymous source **cough**MattLauer**cough** assures me it's for "penis."

If some random guy on a web forum says he's got sources, by cracky it's gotta be true.

Which is why I said "if true".

 

Chances are there is no way all of DD's ramblings are being leaked by someone in the Bills organization,  nor, if he is an employee of the team, would he be dumb enough to repeat things he is being told which could jeopardize his job.

 

 

 

Anyone who follows the Bills, could easily come up with similar posts.

Yeah could be that. West does fit as he is under contract next year too.

Sources in Dunkirk close to the @BuffaloBillsNFL confirm there may be infighting among some coaches/front office personnel and ground crews mostly relating to the removal of snow from New Era Stadium. Team has no comment at this time. Grounds Supervisor @StanleyWojachowski feels @MotherNature failed to give proper warning of accumulation totals and prevailing winds. Sideline tablets will now have a "quick link" to @AccuWeather for grounds crews and coaches alike. Biggest conflict between the sides relates to @StanleyWojachowski recommendation that players who are "inactive" should be equipped with Stihl leaf blowers and remove deep snow from yard lines. Sources in Dunkirk claim @CordyGlenn was opposed to this work unless he was furnished properly padded moon boots to protect feet.

Honestly, this is fun reading. It beats the hell out of posters who think they're smart by constantly running players ("TT has a boo boo on his knee") down. Also, DD, when you speak of contingency planning, I understand and respect the logic of uncertainty. For fandom entertainment, I look forward to these posts.

On last update on Lamar Jackson. 

 

The Scouting Department doesnt really know where to put him yet (the guys that have watched him). They said he has greatly improved his passing ability however they think he still has a long way to go and should stay in school.

Well let's just get Justin Houston if that's the case!

If Chiefs are asking for a 2nd it has to be a higher profile player than that unless I've misunderstood something.

this thread is...well...fantastic.

Any questions for my source  

Is the new stadium location one that has been discussed in the media as a possibility or is this a completely new location and how did they determine this would be the best spot? There were several studies done and that info has been reported so I am curious if they picked one of those or did their own thing

[BillsFan4]

The Glenn trade stuff doesn't make sense. 

 

Everything that came out said that the Bills wanted a lot in return for him, and that the  cost was prohibitively high (which is why Seattle went elsewhere). 

 

Also, if he won't pass a physical now, how would he have passed one to be traded weeks ago?

But who has the ultimate authority over the roster and trades?  Someone needs to make final call.  Kim?

I doubt ownership would be as involved. I feel like they took a step back and will let their guys handle it. But like I said before, It's a mutual decision. Beane and McDermott will come together and discuss the roster. Who to promote (Practice squad), who to sign, who to trade, and so on. As far as right now, it's mainly them talking about the practice squad, injuries, and free agency. The draft talk won't come until after the season is finished. I don't think there should ever be a situation where Beane says that you have to coach this guy or else...and so on. Now there may be situation where McDermott wants a guy so Beane goes after him, but the money isn't right. So the guy walks and signs elsewhere. McDermott can't say, hey go pay him now. That's not how it works. Beane controls the money decision in this one. So, to answer your question, I think they both have final say in certain situations, but ultimately it is a mutual decision between the both of them that makes sense both financially and with the roster. If there is no agreement, then they move on from it.

This information is fun and interesting... but no way should anyone create any sort of opinion to either the GM or coach based on this report... Impossible to prove the validity let alone context of these statements.

I really, really, really doubt that McDermott and Beane have fallen out.  I put the chance of that at 0.01%

 

 

Agreed. This sounds like "fake news" to me.
