He is not asking for Barkley or McCaffrey money if he wants 15 mil/year. He is asking for more the second tier range. Jonathan Taylor - 6.2% of cap at signing. Benched for pass blocking problems in games. Alvin Kamara - 4.8% of cap at signing current extension, 5 years older, a bad pass blocker Josh Jacobs - 4.7% of the cap at signing after a disastrous 2023. A solid pass blocker. Cook at 15 mil/year is asking for 5.4% of the cap. Cook will get close to what he is asking for on the open market (between 13 and 15 mil/year I would project) he is a good player even if pass protection is his biggest flaw. The decision will come dow to if Beane really wants to bank on Ray Davis and a rookie (or mid level free agent) in 2026 for a team that now runs at a higher percentage than it throws. Especially after we just had reliable production from Cook both in the regular season and especially in the playoffs where rookies and mid tier guys tend to fade. Since he is our best skill position player for Josh, I think resigning him would be the smart move and it also saves you the cap space or draft capital you would have to spend on a replacement.

Simple answer to that - no, he wasn't.

under 200 ypg and 9 TD in 7 games against bartenders and insurance salesmen. a good QB would tear that league apart

you could ask the same of any WR who has ever played. WRs are often open yet not actually targeted. That’s intuitively true. What’s the point of your question?

Definitely not LVP. She never would've let the geezer come close to touching that doll until she had the nickel bouncing around in her can.

Bills Top 5 single game passing performances
wppete replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
The NE playoff game a few years ago where Josh Allen had the perfect game was the greatest performance I’ve seen from a Buffalo Bill ever. -

Draft registration was reinstated during Reagan's 1st term. Pretty sure it's still the rule for men. Even though there hasn't been a draft in ~1/2 a century, makes sense to have the infrastructure in place to reinstitute it should conditions warrant it.

I'd add that most RB's start declining after age 27 regardless of usage and investing in McGovern and/or O'Torrence is more important to keep the line strong no matter what RB is in the backfield. The main argument folks can make about extending him now is they think he can buck most of those trends and extending him now is smart because he'll be more costly next year when he hits free agency. Plus, you get the added bonus of showing the locker room that if you work hard and do all the right things we'll reward you with a 2nd contract and it'll avoid any drama this summer. Beane's weighing all of these factors for sure and that's why having a hard number of what he thinks of his value is smart. I think the bigger sample size the better even if it means paying more next year. Both sides have compelling cases though. I just like to play the odds and I'd move on from him after this year.

I never served. At an early age I knew that I would never serve in the Armed Forces. I had a kidney taken out at age 4 and when I expressed interest following my dad in the Navy as a kid, my parents let me know that I would not be accepted (4-F). Nevertheless when I turned 18 I went downtown to register to vote, get my sheriff's card (ID to drink back then) and to register for the draft as everyone had to although there was no draft for 2 years. They told me that tthat they would now have people register 2 times a year and the a few months later they stopped the registrations altogether. My friend that is 2 months older than me had a draft card.

"Dramatically"? Please...Ty Johnson has made some of the craziest catches for a RB that I have ever seen in my life over the past few years down field, including multiple ones in the Lions game and perhaps the best catch for an RB I have ever seen in my life in the Bronco playoff game sliding across the back of the end zone on 4th down to make an almost impossible catch that 95% of the WRs in the NFL likely would not have made. The Bills offense is a machine that averages over 30 points a game last year and set franchise records for points and touchdowns and was the most efficient in the history of the NFL. Exactly how would you "dramatically" improve on the best offense in team history and one of the most efficient offense in NFL history?

Dummy, yesterday was the ARMY's 250th b-day. The Marines is in November (don't know when the Navy; or the Air Force's is. Blame his mother for having him on June 14k which also is Flag Day. Are they going to have soldiers at the Navy b-day parade or drag ships down Constitution Ave?

RB and WR markets are actually insane.
Sierra Foothills replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall
You and others here are making lots of assumptions about James Cook, basically that he'll never improve as a player: Pass protection is below par Pass catching is inconsistent Cannot handle a heavier workload His career curve will be no better than his brother's I don't make these assumptions. By all accounts James is a diligent and competitive player. He's 25 years old. Last year he asked for and received goal-line responsibilities and knocked that one out of the park. He was the best goal-line back that anyone following the Bills can remember. Many here seem to believe that were he to take snaps away from Ty Johnson that the Bills offense would be worse for it. I feel the complete opposite. I believe the Bills offense would improve dramatically. I also believe that Cook's best years are ahead of him. JMO. -
I was thinking about this differently. I was thinking, “what would my all-time, Bills starting lineup be?” The late 80’s is as far back as my memory goes. I’ve included HOFers before my time but not savvy enough to know if Sestak/Byrd/Edgerson/Cookie belong. I’ve also made some executive decisions because WR & RB have been better than TE. This is ONLY for their time as Bills (sorry TO) here it goes: QB - Allen RB: OJ RB: Thurman WR1: Andre WR2: Moulds Slot: Diggs LT: Dion LG: Joe D C Kent Hull RG: Shaw RT: House Ballard DE: Bruce DE: Mario Williams DT: Ted Washington DT: Kyle Williams OLB: Takeo OLB: Biscuit MLB: Talley CB: Winfield CB: Clemens S: Jones S: Poyer KR: McGee ST: Tasker K: Christie P: Moorman HC: Marv OC: Marchibroda DC: Schwartz

I wasn’t at the Capitol, Tibsy but think it’s moderately crazy to be at any of these events. However I would not characterize stalking and assassinating political figures and health co CEOs as more crazy than most, if not all, of the J6 defendants. Or for that matter most of the protestors from the King Me rallies riots of yesterday. We’re 2 for 2 today. Agreed. -
Cook is a 2 down back who is terrible in pass pro. You don't pay big contracts to players that don't perform at the same level or the same roles as 3 down backs like Barkley or McCaffery who are the leaders at the RB position along with Henry who is one of the best backs ever. In the game James Cook missed, Ray Davis had 150+ all purpose yards.
