Shakir to miss the next 5 weeks due high ankle sprain
ScottishBills replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
I almost hope for the opposite. High ankle sprains notoriously linger, presumably as in-season you just get back out there before its 100%. Almost rather miss the first couple weeks even if its at 90%+ - and come back only when its 100% - its a long old season - and no matter how good Shakir is, playing slot is one of the easier positions to replace with the players we have -
Mods, sorry, I just realized this was already posted. Please merge

I think there is enough smoke that says they are at least talking...they are "close", who knows.....Beane needs to always do what he thinks is right, not just appease fans....given what Cook brings to the table (good and not so good) and his output the last two years and the position of RB I understand the dilemma from both ends. His agent is doing his job, Beane is doing his, they don't HAVE to agree. This is negations, I believe it will likely get resolved. They could give him some void money next year without an extension. Diggs got an extra million or two a couple times in training camp. I think something gets done, it's a game of poker, right now Cook has the cards....when you get closer to the regular season and he stands to lose 1/17 of 5.2 million each week, it will be the Bills who have more leverage.....just let it play out.

When the Bills make the SB this year, what’s your go to?

‘Go to’ What? Drink? Meal? Establishment? Drug? Sex Act? 😳 -
But Josh Allen will be on the roster in the future, probably another 10 years-ish

and they still won 8 games with their quarterback only playing 11. They have a healthy QB problem more than they have a culture problem. - Today

Shakir to miss the next 5 weeks due high ankle sprain

The report from the Bills is simply he is week to week, yet this reporter indicates 4-5 weeks. Maybe it will be this timeframe, but to me this is speculation as the bills usually don’t give out timeframes unless season ending like an ACL, or Achilles. So I’m going to remain hopeful he cuts that guesstimate by a week. Shakir is young and normally pretty healthy. There have been exceptions to timeframes like AP who cam back months before expected and killed it after his ACL. Granted these examples are usually the exception, not the norm. So my positive attitude is he makes it back no later than four weeks. He’d have a week before the Ravens game, so to me it’s not an absolute he misses that game. Probably, but not a fact he’s missing the game. -
2 Buffalo sportscasting oldtimer legends from the early 1980’s (my kinda guys) sitting in a WNY corner Bar & Grill talking Buffalo sports? The ambiance of the establishment -wall paneling, red & white checkered table cloths, Buffalo sports memorabilia everywhere? The ONLY thing missing is an apron clad, cigar chomping old tavern proprietor bringing a plate of wings and Beef on Weck to the table with a sarcastic warning the horse radish is homemade. ❤️ The combination of real local knowledge of our teams, comfortable with every sports topic being discussed by white-haired sports icons is a real treat compared with pimple-faced know-it-alls or loudmouthed punks sharing their witless opinions is so refreshing! lemme put my hearing aid in and grab my cane. I’m goin’ to lunch!

Even Joe Marino in his podcast today said that was what he was hearing while he was in WNY. And he's pretty anti-extension

What veteran? The Free Agent RB market has been completely picked through. There's nothing of value left: Jamaal Williams (30) Zack Moss (28) Gus Edwards (30) Jeff Wilson (30) Ameer Abdullah (32) Chase Edmonds (29) JaMychal Hasty (29) D'Onta Foreman (29) Mike Boone (30) Josh Kelly (29) Chris Evans (28) Owen Wright (26) Let Cook do what he wants. He isn't going to hold out games or not be at camp and take the fines that would cost six figures per. He "likes his money" too much for that. Let him throw a hissy fit for a bit. If he wants a team to pay him, he's going to have to produce. He knows it. The team knows it. Davis and Johnson are nice roleplayers. Davis for tough yardage and change of pace. Johnson for blocking and receiving. But to rely on them on 1st and 2nd down to move the chains, or any from that murderers row list above, would be a massive downgrade to our offense this season. And if they don't want to pay 15m per for Cook, I question whether they want to pay around 30m per for 29 year old McLaurin. I know WR is a different animal than RB. But it's still a much larger ticket.

Some feel Keon is better suited for the slot. Steve Smith said that pre draft and throughout last season. Idk. -
Place my wife went recently said 3k-6k out of pocket depending and with Medicare advantage? Got to revisit or compare elsewhere I guess. I want that money for vacation.

So episode 1 of Hard Knocks concluding scene: Liev Schreiber - “A notable ‘absence’ here on this first practice after the return of the Red and Blue at Highmark.” *James Cook shown on bike* Liev Schrieber: “This of course is notable and raises eye brows with the media and fans.” *Camera cuts to Cook* Cook: “Business.” *Cut to credits*

What? There are several other guys to work in the slot before Keon: Curtis Samuel, Moore, Palmer, Shenault, Hamler -
Totally hypothetical - would you trade Cook and pick to get Mclaurin? I know there is a difference in AAV but is it a trade you would make? I think it's a tough tough decision but I would do it. Cook is terrific in our offense but McLaurin would make the overall O unstoppable. At RB , get a veteran and ride with him, Davis and Johnson.
