Kamara was never getting traded, and CMC never even went for a first.

 

Most likely KC

 

How many WR's can one team have?

The Hockenson trade seems nuts to me.  Wtf are they thinking?

 

Their tanking the season for a QB next draft.  They need a total rebuild with a competent organization.

GM Holmes will be looking for a new HC this offseason.

With what cap space?  Also, they let Hill walk to trade a boat load of picks for two WR’s at the deadline.. one of which is under contract for 20M next year?

Just not true.  Next years cap will be at MINIMUM 240 million and more likely around 250 million due to Amazon TV contract kicking in. Cap concerns next year will NOT be a reason they do nothing, especially with even bigger increases coming the next 3 or 4 years after that from the other TV contracts kicking in.

 

 

I did not say its the lone reason but its a challenge and its is the reason we are not making some of the bigger delas that are going down

And we will still have to play cap gymnastics next yeare just the same

Plus if they ever decide on Sunday Ticket...also Beane signs and acquires pretty much anyone he wants. He just adjusts other contracts

It's gotta be the Packers. They have the cap space and a need at WR.

 

Don't know about their cap space but the Giants were in on him too. They need to get Jones some help at WR.

Ugh......this type of stuff is why it is so frustrating to be a fan sometimes.  We aren't privy to the conversations that are going on and we don't know what is being discussed.  I'm sure there are some deals that have been talked about that we would be all for making if we knew the actual details that GMs won't make for whatever their reasoning is.  There are probably players and deals being discussed by us and every other team that we would think there would be no way that teams would move the player, but we could make a move on but don't. 

 

I think we all see how good this team is and one or two big time players could put us over the top.  Personally, I would be all in at this point  Nothing would be off limits to get talent in here no matter what picks we are talking about.  We have a lot of core guys under contract already and while picks are valuable, if you use them on the right pieces to pick up, you won't miss one draft and it won't kill this team long term.  It's time to be aggressive and take our swing.  If it works out, nobody will care what we gave up.  If it doesn't, one year of losing out on draft picks isn't going to mortgage our future either. 

 

That said, it is going to be frustrating to watch other teams around us working to get better and close the gap on us while we stand pat.  We haven't won anything yet, but we are the hunted right now.  I want to make the gap larger, not watch teams close in.  Now's the time to make the moves to give us a chance to put us over the top.  I just don't think Beane and company are going to be willing to give up the picks necessary to do it.

Trust that Beane IS most definitely working.  He’s just not going to overpay.

Cooks will restructure deal next year.

He didn’t go for a first because the niners didn’t have a first.  So they found another way to pay the premium

CMC went for a second, third, and fourth-round picks in the 2023, as well as a fifth-round pick in 2024.  Beane values his picks way too much to give that many up.

No one was giving a first, thats why he didn't go for a first. 

 

If someone offered a first, SF wouldn't have got him on the deal they did.

Feels like free agency all over again....  all these big signings around the league.... uh oh Raiders got Chandler Jones!  What are Bills gonna do!?   BANG!   Von Miller.

 

Yeah, he is definitely working on a huge trade for someone, but... it takes 2 sides to agree... all we can do is hope.

Ugh come on Bills, trade some picks that might not even make the roster 

They don't have any holes in their roster, unless Poyer is really injured. 

 

And by giving up draft picks, they are making it more difficult to sign their star players to extensions. 

 

Davis, Oliver and Edmunds all are players the Bills will want to retain long term and need deals in the next 12 months or so. To enable that you need to be able to replace guys like Poyer, Hyde,  Morse, etc with draft guys on cheap contracts

 

Bottom Line 

 

As long as the Chiefs don't land Brian Burns then I don't really care what happens
