Now this was funny 😂😂 -
Here's my prediction QB Josh Allen, Mitch (no way they take Mike White over Mitch who was in Josh's wedding party) RB James Cook, Ray Davis, Ty Johnson (No changes here) FB Reggie Gilliam (Core ST guy niche offensive role he's good) WR Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Joshua Palmer, Elijah Moore, Curtis Samuel (Accurate no changes here) TE Dalton Kincaid, Dawson Knox, Jackson Hawes (Accurate, same top two but with Hawes as a niche role player third stringer) OL Dion Dawkins, David Edwards, Conner McGovern, O'Cyrus Torrence, Spenser Brown, Chase Lundt, Tylan Grable (adding SVPG, Alec Anderson, and Van Denmark team likes to be in the 9-10 range and I don't think they want any of these guys on the PS taking out Lundt as I think they move him off to IR) DL Greg Rousseau, Ed Oliver, DaQuan Jones, Joey Bosa, AJ Epenesa, Landon Jackson, Javon Solomon, TJ Sanders (Adding Deon Walker and Carter to get them to 10 D-Line with Larry O and Hochet suspended) LB'S Terrel Bernard, Matt Milano, Joe Andreeson, Dorian Williams (Adding Shaq Thompson and Spector as they usually like to go with 6 here) CB Christian Benford, Tre'Davious White, Taron Johnson, Dorian Strong, Maxwell Hairston (Adding in Codrington as he is a key return man) S Taylor Rapp, Cole Bishop, Darrick Forrest, Jordan Hancock (adding back in Hamlin, he's simply too solid a backup and he plays special teams decently) ST K Tyler Bass P Brad Robbins LS Reid Ferguson So that's 10 in 2 out and Larry O and Hochet suspended. Swapping White for Mitch as a personality hire and swapping out Lundt for a different backup O-linemen (likely thinking they "redshirt" him for a bit). Overall I think this
-
Agreed. Not a three down back imo.

I’ve had them called for/on me…..

I think it's possible Cook could get 15 million on the open market, but it's contingent on how this season goes for him. He has one season of elite production. Cook is probably a top 10 RB in the league, but he needs to show it can be consistent. If he desperately wants the contract before the season starts, he probably needs to make concessions. I can't say what I'd do in that situation because 10-15 million dollars is just an unfathomable amount of money to me, but having 12-13 million guaranteed moving forward would sound pretty appealing being an undersized RB in the league. An injury this season could derail his chances of getting any high end contract.

Anyone surprised ? Clapper Crew Threatened Whistleblower Who Refused To Sign Off On Fabricated Intel Assessment by Margot Cleveland A crony of then-Director of National Intelligence (DNI) James Clapper threatened to withhold a promotion from a senior intelligence official unless he concurred in the fake Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) on Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election, notes obtained exclusively by The Federalist show. The notes made public for the first time today recount a conversation the top analyst in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) had with an unnamed superior who worked closely with the then-Director James Clapper, according to sources familiar with the document. https://thefederalist.com/2025/07/30/exclusive-clapper-crew-threatened-whistleblower-who-refused-to-sign-off-on-fabricated-intel-assessment/

You aren’t factoring in the salary cap hit, though. The Khalil Mack trade brought the Raiders Jacob’s, Arnette, Edwards, a 6th round pick PLUS nearly $25 million a year in cap space (which was the largest contract fora defensive player in history at the time and would be about $45 million in today’s cap dollars). In other words, they could have drafted those players and still had enough cap space to sign the biggest name on the FA market. Yes, the Raiders did what the Raiders do and pissed away their picks, but that doesn’t mean the Bears made a good decision to give up draft picks for the right to give out a market-resetting contract. The salary pays the player. The picks are really for the surplus value of the player’s contract. If the player isn’t going to play on an existing contract, there isn’t any value there. It would be one thing if the player was on a bargain contract and not demanding a new deal, but that’s exceedingly rare. Basically, if a player is worth a $40 million salary and a first round pick, he’s worth a $60 million salary.

Give him $12m on a 1 year deal and promise not to franchise tag him next year. Find his replacement in the draft next year. Beane isn’t dumb enough to give Cook $15m over multiple years.

Have you ever had to call 911 for anything?
ExiledInIllinois replied to BillsPride12's topic in Off the Wall
311 here for non-emergency. -
McLaurin isnt getting dealt. But Cook and Ed and a couple 1st round picks could be in play for Parsons. Who said trade? I'm talking open Free Agency market, which would be next offseason (unless he gets Franchise Tagged which I think is a good possibility)

Kash Patel and The Russia Hoax: Not ***** Around.

The Public is Finally Learning How Democrats Pulled Off the Greatest Political Trick in History by Jonathan Turley Below is my column in Fox.com on the release of the last declassified material on the origins of the Russian collusion investigation. After the release, former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper wrote in the New York Times insisted that they never relied on the Steele dossier. The column only reaffirmed the level of dishonesty and duplicity that marked their tenures in office. (The Times still printed this claim despite being demonstrably untrue). The documents quote Brennan in overruling career analysts and intervening to include the dossier in the intelligence assessment Moreover, the column echoes the media spin that the investigation was about an attempted Russian interference while dismissing the collusion claim that consumed much of the first term. (Even after leaving office, Brennan continued to push the false collusion claim). Both countries routinely hacked each other’s emails — that is why we have the most recent incriminating evidence on the Clinton campaign’s funding and spreading the false collusion claims. We hacked their emails. We have also regularly tried to influence the elections of other nations. The key to the dossier and the Russian investigation was the allegation of collusion and the central role of the Clinton campaign in creating the narrative that Trump was a Russian asset. https://jonathanturley.org/2025/08/01/the-reveal-the-public-is-finally-learning-how-democrats-pulled-off-the-greatest-political-trick-in-history/ -
Sorry man, she just got married.

Billy Buffalo scared my daughter so much that he gave her some of the Buffalo Bills little people and signed it for her

I honestly don’t think he’s worth even that. He’s not a 3 down RB, drops way too many catchable balls in key moments. He’s a very good RB but I’m fine with Beane not bending over when Cook has only had one elite season. Let’s see how he and Ray Davis look this year and then make the calculated decision imo I’d be down for this for sure
-
Hmmm - maybe Cook is part of a trade for Terry Mclaurin from the Redskins. That would be VERY interesting. Otherwise, pay the dude. he Cooks. $12M and get him on the field.
-
Is he though? Im not sure he’s even a top 10 RB in the league atm
-
What the hell, guys...this is a message board, there's no place for these kinds of pleasantries!
-
You could argue it, but... Cook is an elite weapon.
-
Nice! But us younger ones will never see this. Pun intended! If I make it 10 years, I will be bumping into crap like my 15 year old cat.

Shakir to miss the next 5 weeks due high ankle sprain
BarleyNY replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yes, I think that’s more likely. But he should be allowed to compete. -
Yes, I know but that ankle could be an issue all season even if he is playing. Plus, it's not like we have a great WR group with him either. McLaurin would be a nice addition as he would give Allen another weapon to have in the passing game.
-
I have a fear that the main pieces of our O-line will be in and out of the line-up to some degree all year. We were lucky last year, I don't think that continues.
