It not the math - it is the agent inflation. 1st - it’s not 30 million guaranteed - it is closer to 25 million overall 2nd - The full guarantee at signing which is what he is assured is only about 15 million 3rd - the final part of his guarantee is next year and some of that guarantees part his 2027 salary not a payout. I agree with Bill (and it happens every time) this is another case of an agent inflating what he got, In the end he got his salary this year guaranteed (was already going to get by playing) and 9 million for a signing bonus and 5 million of 2026. His Guarantee money at signing is only 15.3 million and that to me is the big number and that is very different than let’s say Barkley (36 million) or Henry (24 million). It is a fair deal and keeps him under 2% of the cap and less than Barkley, Henry, and Williams on their deals. Once the details dropped - as it typically the agent greatly overinflated the value of the deal to make the math come out and allow him to rank the deal highly for RBs in history.

This was as good a preview as I’ve ever seen on the Bills. Must watch. Thanks OP!

Now explain all of the busts drafted in the first two rounds every year.

Don’t forget the GM’s inability to draft impact talent in the first 2-3 rounds of the draft. Beane loves his JAGS. Harbaugh has a ring and is a lock for the HOF.

Did anyone think after 17 years of futility that some people would claim the bills would be boring to following during training camp? My how the tables have turned

Unfortunately, I don't have access to Hard Knocks down here in Kiwi land, but was wondering if this show is only for the preseason, or will they be following the Bills throughout the entire season. Cheers

After the Giants made themselves look spectacularly stupid last year, I think the Bills were determined to lay down some boundaries on what would be allowed. McDermott’s office is off-limits and I’m sure they drilled the players about what to say and who will be allowed to have a voice. It makes for less than riveting viewing, but the Bills like a drama-free environment, as evidenced by paying a huge price to not have Diggs around last year.

Artie was a bit unconventional. Took me a little, but ended up really liking him. RIP, Tiny Tot!

Thanks for posting! My thoughts: 1. Those Greg Bell unis are an absolute eyesore. 2. The Thurman run was the first NFL game I ever attended in person. I was in the end zone behind the Bills. One thing I forgot was that Lofton doesn’t just run with Thurman, he actually makes an impactful block about 60 yards downfield. And in FRONT of the runner, not behind. I can’t think of another time I’ve seen that off the top of my head. 3. I was surprised that OJ was only on the list once, but I didn’t account for it being stadium-specific and not home-game-specific. 4. I was also surprised that Kenny Davis was the only 2-timer. The draw on 3rd and 6 was the absolute perfect play call, and he just turned on the jets. The second one was a more impressive run, and probably the best of his career. Tremendous balance to shake off about 4 tackles, including the last one at high speed. 5. Cook might alter the list a bit this year. Even if he doesn’t, that 65-yarder in the snow was awesome. That whole game was such a joy and delight to watch. (For us - not so much for Niners fans.)

Thanks for posting. I haven't listened but plan to tomorrow. Brett and EJ do such an awesome job on team by team deep dives. I don't know if anyone would find a Bills analysis like this by a national source in any year.

This is why they focused on the crappy teams. Good teams are just too boring because there is very little drama, starting jobs are mostly set, etx. The Bills would have be EXCELLENT content during some of the drought years. Or can you imagine the Rob Johnson and Doug Flutie years on hard knocks? That would have been good.

But the people, for the people 😀😂😃😄😆😸😹😹

Let me see if I have this right. Since Biden, the worst president in the history of America, everybody says so, the demented guy who didn't know what day it was didn't release the Epstien files. So now its okay for President Trump who claimed at least to be draining the swamp is ok to do the same? Who's the bigger man on the issue. Neither one evidently. President Biden never moved sexual predator Maxwell to a minimum security work release prison after her talking to his attorneys. Does this bother you at all? Even just a little? Drain the swamp. Release the info and let the chips fall where they may. And come on man, the democrats didn't want to release it cuz many democrats and big time democrat donors are on the list too. It's not complicated.

What a goober. He's really proud of himself.

The commish office is very busy this time of year SMH

More than you'd get in a year on GR.

Are they gonna be there? Peter Criss in cat makeup? Are they still, umm, mentally fit?

Well there it is… This is the next window to win a Super Bowl in the next 4 years. I think it happens

Only two possible outcomes: Hunter apologizes, or Melania drops the case. This will never go to discovery. Too bad.

After his WGR days he did some announcing at high school games. I went to a St, Francis HS game years ago and Artie was the stadium announcer.

We all know Rice has already received absurdly beneficial procedural wins starting from the moment he exited that car last, from the passenger side, and successfully fled the scene. At no point has law enforcement treated him with the punitive urgency a working class or even poor citizen would have received. And as far as the NFL's separate investigative process is specifically concerned, I'm not hearing any noise about a history of prior behavioral red flags. I think at least one incident has come up since he joined the league and before the big public endangerment car crash thing. Total broom job upcoming: 4 games at most, but possibly appealed down to the 3, and that appeals process means Rice begins his suspension a week later, after week 5, and thus returns week 9 against Buffalo LMAO.

The other thing he was is a clunky scheme fit for a lot of schemes. I remember when I was doing the 2 round mock with @gonzo1105 there were a few edge needy teams in that late 2nd territory where Jackson just was not a fit. We found a team in the end in that range where it made sense..... the Buffalo Bills (I know they ended up taking him in the third but we didn't have trades).
