Keeping my fingers crossed!

I'm gonna try that on the wife, "honey why didn't you switch the laundry?" ... business

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.

Is the red stuff ketchup? Now that is all class -- upper class. Speaking of upper class...that brand is the favourite of this guy and he swears by them...

it falls under major medical, your covered.

Im firmly on board with extending Cook. 3 years max, but the dude gets slippery yards like Shakir, yards that not everyone can see and get. Plus he can take it to the house. Each year Josh get older, we need backs that aren't Tolbert or Singletary or Moss. Cook has been a great surprise and has real nose for the endzone. His play on the field warrants an extension way, way more than a Dawson Knox did. Its not even close.

To the bolded.. ive heard that a million times and nothing gets done... That being said... It is interesting time for him to do what he is doing right now.. My gut is that Cook's agent gave a final offer.. so in this case you may be right.

Agree...nothing you can do...injuries happen....shut him down for a month. Get that ankle treatment & rest and next man up. Time for players like Coleman and Moore to step up.

I think we actually end up getting a long term deal done. Reports are coming out from multiple sources that both camps are close. I'd be happy getting Cook signed to a 3 year $45m extension if they can get it done. 4 years at $60 I'm more ehhhh about. This has been argued about already, but I'd still view a 3 year at $45m extension as simply the 4 year $50m ($12.5m AAV) contract that it would actually be. Even a 4 year at 60 contract would really just be basically a $13.5 AAV contract that would almost certainly have outs built into year 2 or year 3. If the holdup at this point is a Parsons trade I'm all for it as long as it's not more than 1 first thrown in with Cook and possibly Epenesa.

Yankees lose the Rangers series, Seattle wins theirs against the White Sox, Yanks are 4th in the WC race. Oh, and the Blue Jays are in Colorado. Come Thursday Boone could definitely be whistling by the graveyard.

I somehow feel just the opposite. If the parties are getting close, like a break thru on the main points of the contract (usually the guaranteed money), I imagine it would be a more cordial response from Cook. As a matter of fact, I don't remember thruout the league where a contract is getting close while in camp, a player suddenly stopped attending practices (even just for no contact stretch, warming up stuff) - and in Cook's case, not even wearing the Bills gear (T sheet, cap, etc.) on the sideline. What exactly happened in the last 24 hours (maybe 48 since no practice Saturday) between Cook's camp and Beane?

lol… I never said we were winning the salary cap game, I said I don’t want the priority of the GM to be future salary cap ramifications while Josh Allen is on the roster. I understand your view, I just disagree with it, no big deal.

He could be 111% that's one more than 110%

Far greater chance it doesn’t matter. But sure, for week 1, it’s a big game.

You speak as if we're already winning the "salary cap award of the year". As it is, we're having to budget shop. You want a DK Metcalf or Terry McLaurin? Best we can do is Joshua Palmer and Elijah Moore. You want us to swing for the fences on a DE that's on the market? Best we can do is Joey Bosa. Want to go get a stud CB? Best we can do is Tre White, Dane Jackson, and Draft Picks. Think DaQuan Jones is toast? All good, we'll get a 1T in Round 4. And through all of that and the economy moves to mid-tier moves, we're dead last in the league in Salary Cap - sitting at -750k. Next year, we sit at -2.93 million with at least 17 players who will make this roster needing to be re-signed or replaced. Including 4 of our to be rostered Offensive Lineman, 2 of which starters. We aren't remotely close to winning in the salary cap game right now. Haven't been in a good many years. We're in rough, rough shape. I don't believe the kind of contract that Micah Parsons will demand is feasible. And if it is, the amount of players in the coming years we'd have no choice to let walk would be staggering. Everyone likes to point to the Rams. It's no guarantee that going "all in" like the Rams did will guarantee the same result. And if you do that and not get to the promised land, we're putting Josh in even more hell for years to come and wasting more of his years.

I definitely remember Roseland. That rickety roller coaster and bumper cars with sparks. Good times!
