Man how times have changed in the RB market this offseason...gross

It was due.  RB’s were too undervalued.    But this is ridiculous 

[KentuckyBillsFan]

So much for making a splash this offseason I guess. I'm sure we'll hit on our draft picks

Thank goodness. Did not want to overpay him 

 

Yeah, I wasn't a fan bringing him in.  Wouldn't say washed, but not great anymore either.

Kind of slim pickings already for the currently available free agents (and way overpriced for the ones that have signed).

It was a bad trade in hindsight. We might get a draft pick back though in compensatory form but yes I think after watching it I’d rather have the 3rd round pick this year 

If we would have just traded the Diggs (2025 #56 ultimately) to move up for BTJR, we would a.) be a significantly better team for significantly longer and b.) still have that 3rd rounder because the Cooper trade never would have happened as there would have been no need for height/weight/speed on the outside

Samaje Perine RB who had less than 100 yards rushing last year, 29 years old just got a $7M a year contract.

 

 

Cook is salivating.

 

 

 

Probably also means Ty Johnson is going to get overpaid by someone......

Slay to the Steelers.

Slay, Pickens, Metcalf, Friermuth. Steelers have weapons but it will come down to their QB.

perine is a third down guy, so if that’s what he is getting I am guessing Ty Johnson is a goner, which kinda sucks.

This team desperately needs game breakers on offense and defense. Undervalued FAs aren't fixing that. With Beane's draft record in the first 2 rounds finding elite talent doesn't give me much hope. 

My concern as well.  They need to raise the ceiling and not the floor.  And it seems that their approach is to raise the floor and have faith that the players they invested in recently take a big step.  Not sure sure about that

DJ Reed to the lions for 3 years $48M deal

 

I would have paid that...

Because it was guaranteed we could move up…

Perine to the Bucs is not true apparently

I mean Beane literally told everyone we prob wouldn’t have any big splashed and people still get up in arms 

Means nothing… he said the same thing in 2022 and then signed Von Miller.

For those upset, who’s out there that you currently want? Most teams signed their own before letting them become FA’s. Thus far, there isn’t anyone that I feel has been a huge miss by the Bills.
 

Sweat and or Ward are the two in my radar. 

 

Funny how well the deals for Shakir-13.5M, Benard -12.5M, Rousseau - 20M and Josh's 55M already look like steals. With the Milton Williams news getting Oliver for 17M looks great. It is always better to sign your own early. 

 

That said Beane does need to add to the current roster but let the disparate teams pay the first wave premium and swoop in when the money dry's up.  

[gonzo1105]

Two safeties just went off the board. 
 

Cam Bynum 4 years 60 million to the Colts 

 

Eric Murray 3 years 22.5 million to the Jags

The are pushing their chips all in

[jahnyc]

I had thought we would come out of today with a starting safety and CB.  Not sure it happens now.

Deservingly so if Perine gets that.
