With rare exceptions, there’s really never been a TE era in the NFL. I’m not sure I can think of maybe 10 who were real game changers. S’up wit dat?

Hailee’s father is his trainer. Mrs. C#81 & I were invited, but my tux is blue and her black dress is just for funerals. So.. 🤷‍♂️

His Mom kicked him out of the basement? 😳

Um, dude, no. First, no, I don't pay $25 a month for a service I use maybe twice a year. Second, the NFL teams aren't buying the $25 a month services. They are all signed up for extremely sophisticated deep dives on stats that come from PFF's tape study. Much much more than $25 per year. Again, that doesn't mean their opinion is always right. But it does mean that the NFL believes at a 100% rate that PFF knows how to watch tape, analyze it and break it down. And yet again, that doesn't mean they know exactly how good a guy like Kincaid is and should be the only thing you listen to. But are they worth consideration? Yeah.

PFF desperate hater already here, apparently. Nice to see you again. But this is a dumb post. If I were a superfan, I'd say they were right and you don't need to look any further. You do. But as I said, it's just as dumb to be an unseeing hater and let the mere sight of the letters PFF trigger in your mind all the pitchfork stuff and superfan stuff. Saying they're worth consideration doesn't make me a superfan. It makes me a reasonable person. Again, the NFL teams I believe have a 100% rate of purchasing their services. That would not happen if they didn't know how to watch and understand tape and crunch numbers.

The current Atlanta Federal Reserve Q2 2025 GDP estimate is 4.6%.

The Kincaid we saw when healthy in 2023? With the knowledge he's likely to have now? If healthy, I'd start him over more than half of them in the blink of an eye.

Take a look at the catchable ball percentage for Kincaid this year. Way way down from last year. As has been reported on here a lot. Here's more from the Rochester D&C on this: https://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/sports/football/nfl/bills/2025/02/13/dalton-kincaid-josh-allen-trouble-getting-on-same-page-2024/78462826007/ Yup, exactly, Doc. There's no such thing as a perfect stat or rating. They all need context. This one is indeed a useful tool, but should not be treated as the final and only necessary word.

What more could Josh have done? Thrown it a bit better. Seriously, Kincaid was past everyone and wide open, with nobody in front of him on that right side. Throw that ball five yards further right and it is probably a TD. And it wasn't as if he had to hit a small window. There was a huge window. Should Kincaid have caught it? Yeah. But it was a very tough catch. He was wide open with nobody in front of him and had to do a 180 to get within a tough diving try. Again, he should've had it. But it was not an easy play, and could've been an extremely easy play with a better throw. And yeah, Allen was under serious pressure. But you asked what more he could have done? He could have made it a very very easy catch. Would that have required a terrific play? Yeah, but we're used to Josh making those. It's kind of what he does. Smart defensive call. And they probably should have had a different offensive call. And as we've heard before, Josh was the guy who called the protection, which did turn out to be wrong.

That explains why he was there. I was wondering what the connection was.

It's a message board. Why not share your opinions on what you think his worth is? No rush at all. I'd have to see what the franchise tag number is but I'm guessing it's around $15m so that would be a no for me. The landscape can change a lot in a year too. Maybe there's another RB on the FA market that's an every down back that's worth what Cook is asking next year? Maybe it's a loaded RB draft class and we desperately need money at signing a big name WR or other premium position. You just give yourselves so many more options by letting him play out this year.

Cook is getting really bad advice from his brother or someone. He should attend minicamp, attend all preseason training, and be a team player throughout the season. That will get him a much better contract than acting like a pouty little kid that is mad because he didn't get his way. Grow up Cook.

I don't care what Cook does to try and get his best deal. Thats his business. I don't care what the Bills do to try and sign him to the deal that feels right to them. Thats their business. Like most everyone, I do have opinions on his worth but really that's not my place. All I care about is Cook is ready to play come gametime.

No but I did spend last night at a Holiday Express. Here's where I got just in PFF's preview article of projected starters for 2025 and their grades last year. I just assumed since he received a grade he qualified. I'm not going to pay for PFF because the price they charge is ridiculous. OFFENSE DEFENSE QB Josh Allen (91.9) DI Ed Oliver (72.6) RB James Cook (86.2) DI DaQuan Jones (65.3) RB Ty Johnson (73.3) Edge Greg Rousseau (82.2) WR Khalil Shakir (78.9) Edge Joey Bosa (61.1) WR Keon Coleman (68.3) Edge Michael Hoecht (64.7) WR Joshua Palmer (67.0) LB Matt Milano (53.3) TE Dawson Knox (57.1) LB Terrel Bernard (48.2) LT Dion Dawkins (72.4) CB Christian Benford (79.3) LG David Edwards (66.1) CB Maxwell Hairston (81.8***) C Connor McGovern (69.5) CB Taron Johnson (58.8) RG O'Cyrus Torrence (55.5) S Taylor Rapp (57.7) RT Spencer Brown (77.9) S Damar Hamlin (52.7) *2024 college grade **2023 NFL grade ***2023 college grade

I would even take getting a stop on third down occasionally
