No room for Knox when Hollins needs targets.  😡

 

It’s also hard to stop him from blocking when the line is a sieve.

4 years at 52 million. Is it the end of the world to sign some of our guys after the contract runs out? It helps us get a feel for market value and gives us more time to find out if they have a serious injury or if they still fit in future plans. Beane needs to look at waiting as an investment in more information. Instead he tries to sign everybody early so it's cheaper vs a higher cap but when you do that your risk becomes dead cap hit from decisions made with less information.

Then why not sign a great blocking TE instead of pissing away cap space on Knox?

But all the Bills podcasts said it was a great deal, just like the Miller, Diggs and Bass deals. Beane’s a genius.

The Bills podcasts are right! Big Baller Beane will save us! Just wait for the Rousseau overpay. Those podcasts offer nothing besides “analysis,” which is just praise for everything Beane and McDermott do.

Oh I agree with you. Sucky situation all around.

For the record I was against the Knox deal, he was never going to be an elite TE he is great at blocking but never near the talent level they signed him for. 
 

von was a reach 

diggs was needed

knox was a reach

At the time it wasnt a bad idea.  Where it went wrong was when they drafted Kincaid.  I was very wary of how both would coexist as pass catching tight ends. Horribly planned. Should’ve traded Knox right away. Paying the price now, literally.

I thought his contract would only make sense if his usage increased and he maintained his TD production.

 

Then Beane drafted Kincaid in the 1st and Knox has become an afterthought. 

 

Paying Knox and then immediately drafting his replacement was such a horrible use of resources by Beane.

He’s garbage and useless. I remember when posters on here told me I was dumb for saying he was massively overpaid

He is on pace for 10 total receptions this year. Thoughts on his usage in Brady’s system of small ball?

It’s not his fault his OC is the biggest idiot in the world.

They've been trying to force this 12 personnel BS for two years and haven't been able to make it work.  In the process,  they've managed to turn an offense that was a thoroughbred into a plowhorse.  That's not a Knox issue.  That's on the coaching staff and front office.

Fwiw the OL is a sieve because we have absolutely no weapons on offense catching the ball, so defenses are teeing off on our barely average OL. Because they are not scared of the 4 yard dink and dunk offense that we trot out there every week.
