No, if he plays 65% next year it’s a 2024 1st. So basically it’s a 2024 1st.

 

Basically:

2nd

6th

2024 1st

 

But they also sent back a 2024 5th which pretty much negates the 6th.  Swap of 2023 1sts is only 2 slots.

The Bills should be thankful for the trade which makes the Jets more likely to beat the Patriots & Dolphins during the regular season.  It's all about the AFC East Division winner with our tough schedule in 2023.  A 10-7 record may win it this year.

Curious to see how they deal with the HUMONGOUS expectations.

It was the offensive line…packers oline was absolutely awful early in the season and then they did a huge reshuffle and locked it down a bit.

 

The jets don’t have world beaters at wr either 

They have a better receiving core than us. Wilson is really really good and they had absolute crap throwing them the ball.

Eh, I think the draft pick stuff is super overrated. What they should keep their picks to draft the next Zack Wilson or Sam Darnold? They have a really complete roster and has maybe the worst starting qb in the nfl. They acquired a 3 time mvp, who is old and weird, but is on a different planet than they crap they had prior. The jets are such an irrelevant franchise. I would be doing backflips if I was a Jets fan.

And Rogers is 40 years old and looking more like an aging Manning or Brees rather then Brady.  IMO we'll see a significant decline in Rogers play this year. It happens fast and in a couple of seasons you can easily go from an MVP to a below average QB.

 

 

 

 

Father time is coming but i havent seen the decline at least not as noticeable as that rag for a right arm Brees had for his last couple or few years.  He might not be as sharp as Manning was, but he's pretty smart. How Hall comes back from that injury ....for sure, i think the season just got more interesting, Cant wait.

Better shore up the D Beane. Still with nightmares of Burrow and Mahomes carving up the Bills defense.  Now Rodgers is in the same division!!!  

[folz]

I find this exciting! I'm glad the division will be a dogfight. Will make for some great, old-school football to watch.

 

And I still have confidence that our boys will finish on top. We are a very-talented, veteran team with a great QB. A team that has seen it all/been through it all over the last few seasons.

 

I think the Bills will come into this season not just as men on a mission, but as fully bonded and battle-tested warriors on the ultimate quest! That's the stuff you don't see on paper.

Lotta cope going on ‘round here.

Let’s just worry about ourselves first hey?

 

If the Bills are playing close to their best like the start of the season last year… they should still be ok for the Division and a Championship run..

 

If they play like the second half of last season… then it won’t really matter what the Jets are doing …because that level of play isn’t doing much come the playoffs as we saw in January..

Level of play is usually associated with injuries.  Was there any team more affected by injuries than the Bills the past 2 years?  I would guess that teams that win the Lombardi have fewer injuries than the rest.  I know I am stating the obvious:  injuries can make a great team so-so.  Yes we should just worry about ourselves and worry that we have fewer injuries.  Law of averages should smile on us.  Go Bills!

He is knocking on the door of 40 and seemed to be struggling at times last season..

 

He has been a great player no doubt… but not every 40 year old is going to age like Brady has..

 

Let’s see how he goes … is he better than Wilson ? Of course … The question should be is he still good enough to be a difference maker over the course of the season?

It’s a risky move made by guys whose jobs are on the line and didn’t have many other options..they will be gone if he is one season and done and they miss the playoffs ..

Quoted for truth.

 

I remember everyone telling me how awful Tua was, then he went out and beat the Bills while concussed.

Do the Jets honestly have a better roster? Statistics say no. Their vaunted defense was no better than the Bills and the Bills lost 1 whole starter. 
Offensively Are Josh Allen, Steff Diggs, and James Cook better than Aaron Rogers, Breece Hall, and Garrett Wilson? Ah no they are not. 
Is Dawson Knox better than Tyler Conklin? Yes

Is Gabe Davis better than Allan Lazzard? I’d actually say yes.
Olines are both crappy so Bills are probably 2-3 games better than the Jets.

Yeah. So they got him for a (likely) 1st and a 2nd. Nothing wrong with that given his age honestly I thought they’d get more out of the Jets.

Oh boy - I agree with you on the bolded but there’s folks here that will definitely argue that point. We’ll call them the “rather validate my predictions than be a fan” crowd.

I don’t think they’re better then Miami.  
 

When Quinnen Williams got hurt late last year they were not the same D - which was healthy all year especially the secondary.  
 

The offense may have Rodgers and Wilson.  And?  Breece Hall off ACL who knows.  
 

Their first pick is no doubt an OT.  So a rookie for Rodgers to ***ch at with every mistake.  
 

No.  They are not better then Miami.
