Unfounded rumor re: Edmunds Contract

You can’t be serious about a third round pick. No chance in hell. A flip of proximate day three picks is more like it. 

Sadly, that is true. After all the picks and cap space they have spent on the DL, it’s still a need. 

Houston isn’t getting anybody as good as Oliver for 1 year $10m in free agency.  They’ll have to over-pay over multiple years to get anybody decent.  He has value to a rebuilding team like Houston with picks and cap space.  He’s still young and would be their best D Lineman.

And then…?

 

Rehire Russ Brandon and watch him destroy everything Beane has accomplished. Seriously, I have been a sceptic about the Bills for a long while, but some posters here make me look like the eternal optimist. Oh no! We lost to a great team! Fire everone immediately! Where's the accountability!?

Get over that nonsense. The roster needs to be tweaked, not blown up.

He’s fine and keeping him another year is not terrible. The key is keeping Miller healthy and bringing in a productive edge rusher who can actually pressure the QB, unlike Epenesa or Lawson. Frazier and Sean insist upon rushing four which is great for protecting our young secondary but great QBs feast on 4 man rush teams.

It’s actually the exact opposite
Great QBs feast on teams that blitz you can rush four if you’re four are actually getting there

He has played 5 years at the NFL level.  His instincts aren’t getting better after thousands of snaps.  You are seeing the best of him already. 

this is entirely possible, and it is also been shown that when the line play in front of him is good, he is good

 

The question is, what is that worth?

That’s my point. Against the two teams in the SB, both having great O-lines with great receivers and fine QBs, where would our rush 4 scheme get us?

Again. That is completely ridiculous for a variety of reasons:

- look at what HOU could get for $10.75M on the FA market

- quality players available early in the 3rd 

- 3rd round would be way cheaper

- 3rd rounder would be under team control for 4 years instead of 1 like Oliver and could actually be there if they turn things around

But this does qualify as a high level court side meeting doesn’t it.  Sonic must be true
