‘But in the sports world, it’s almost like we can tune out all of those things and come together as one.

‘With the amount of capital that was used rather than traded away, several “steals” throughout the process and even adding undrafted free agents that could contribute, Buffalo has put itself in position to compete for playoff contention in 2019.

‘McCoy is the one face that no longer fits on a roster that has been almost completely reshaped under Beane. He’s over the hill. He’s an inconsistent, self-serving leader who got benched for a play for the season finale a year ago. He’s also in the final year of his contract (at $6 million) and has a couple of off-field civil suits pending.’
