We have some tough guys in here that seem to think a toe injury can easily be played through. It's only on a limb that gets used every time you play football and needs to carry your entire body weight plus that of possibly 2 or 3 other people at the same time.

I am all for moving on from Star next March.  See if he can be talked into retirement and come to an agreement to save a few more $s.

Lots of DTs in FA next year.  Maybe sign Harrison to a vet minimum type contract for depth and get a DT that can tackle.

 I was a big fan his first season with us, now it is clear this guy just wants a paycheck and lacks toughness. They should cut him and feliciano today!

Maybe he chose to sit out because he was afraid of getting covid in his toe. I sure hope the organization puts an emphasis on toughness and desire moving forward. 

 

Im going for bigger faster stronger and nastiness

We need to find a DT and MLB in free agency in offseason. Draft OLine and RB. 

 

LB is fine just need DTs with size to take up blockers

if you want to cut Star - with 2 years remaining - it will cost 5.1M in dead cap to save over 4M

That dead amt is likely highest on team, and then take into consideration OL potentials like Morse, Ford, D Williams or Feliciano and you are over 10M in dead cap which works against signability of other FAs and effects competetitivness...so as much as we would like to jettison Star we likely have to keep him around 1 more year (and draft his 2023 replacement in 2022to learn the ropes) then cut him in 2023..that damn skip of Covid year where he skipped-out and the 3 year contract rolled over into year 4 is painful for next season.

Sooner or later Beane is going to run out of former overrated Panthers players to bring to Buffalo.

 

But at least this is the last season we are going to see a lot of these guys in a Bills uniform.

False.

 

He was out there Monday night.  Was that great?   He was out there against Tennessee.  Great?  Nope.

Star is great when he's out there, but he never is! I don't care if it's COVID or a broken toe. If you aren't playing then you aren't playing. The Bills seriously need to invest in a 1T in the next draft or free agency. Hopefully the D-Line as a whole gets a little better at run blocking w/ some experience under their belt next year. 

 

The number 1 problem this year has been stopping the run and running. They need to figure something out because it seems the league is shifting to more run oriented offenses now which was inevitable as teams built themselves to defend the pass.

 

I think it was Parcells who said something to the effect  "the most important ability is availability".

 

I try not to question player injuries or their toughness, but if you're not on the field you're not helping the cause (edit: unless you're Cody Ford) . Flipside to that mentality is players coming back too early and either being ineffective or making an injury worse. Bottom line is Star hasn't been on the field much the past two seasons. Gotta hope he heals up and can come back strong for a playoff push/run because help for 2021 is not on the way.

Star isn't solely responsible for those games and that's only a couple, anyway. As much doom & gloom there is on this forum, Buffalo Bills still have the #1 defense in the league to my knowledge.

Bye bye not much of a star....your parents clearly gave you the wrong name.
