I don't recall it being Trepasso. I know who Trepasso is. This was some young guy on Zoom that they've had on before, I believe from PFF. I never catch his name, but he loved the Bills' draft.

Bills claim Casey rogers off waivers

The optimistic and cheerful folks get excited by any signing. The rest of us are happy when a weak position group gets some depth. Forrester played reasonably well when fully healthy. He won't make us forget Hyde or Poyer but he does make a weak group a little less weak. When you're close to being a SB contender, any little improvement is a cause for excitement, IMHO. -
Except the year before when they were the 3rd seed and still beat us and Balt on the road to get in.
-
My two cents: because Jordan Poyer was in a fairly similar boat when we first signed him.

Glad you brought up guaranteed money. It really is the only/most important thing. So 4/$60M with $40M guaranteed means we could easily get out of it after 2 or 3 years without much of a hit. Very little dead cap risk. So what's everyone worried about? And yes, if he continues to play like last season, he is worth $13-15M/yr.

I think most fans have learned that guaranteed money is the thing that matters most in a contract after the Watson fiasco. How do we know Cook doesn't want a 4 year $69.2m extension so his average is $15m over the next five years? I kid but the point is do you think he's worth $13.2m a year over the next five? I don't. Replenish through the draft next year and spend that money at more premium positions.

Huge win by Florida tonight to make the series 2-1. F the Leafs.

I hope he plays like Max Crosby, but, from a looks perspective, I can’t decide on who Landon Jackson reminds me of most - Xerxes from 300, Styr from Game of Thrones, Agent 47 from the Hitman video game, other? Just can’t put my finger on it.

He is really really fast, wow.

Bills 4th Round Pick : Deone Walker - DT - Kentucky
Rigotz replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
What did they say that indicates they think he’s a 1-Tech? To my knowledge, they said the opposite. They specifically mentioned Carter as the potential 1T backup to Jones. -
Andy Isabella of safeties is better than the Damar Hamlin of safeties. He literally should be making hallmark movies instead of being on a football field, he’s that bad at safety
-
you pointed out why people are hung up by on it, guys who are markedly better are earning half that in average and 20% less in the big year of their deal. Cook is so over rated by a number of you on this board it’s actually comical. You laugh at the Dolphins for signing Tua, not realizing you want the Bills to do the equivalent at a less valuable position.

Bills 4th Round Pick : Deone Walker - DT - Kentucky
BigAl2526 replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
Walker is very strong in his upper body and not so much below the waist. I don't know enough about body building to know if he's likely to be able to add lean muscle mass to his legs. The relative lack of strength in his legs is probably why he was used all over the line at Kentucky and only a minority of snaps at 1 tech. -

But that is the way people look at it, and the way to calculate the contract/player value. Right now, Cook is on a 1yr/$5M contract. If we extend him, that means we keep that 1/$5M and add to it. And it changes the length and average value. And lets be clear, average value is what everyone is caught up on. And average value is the unreal optics. I've seen it said Henry signed for "$8M/yr" because his contract was 2/$16M. But he's never made $8M. He made $4M last year, and this year he's set to make over $12M. So you're really helping us prove that "average value" is meaningless, and folks shouldnt get caught up on "$15M/yr" because there wont be a year he ever earns $15M. It will be some smaller figures up front, some larger number at the end, and probably a void year to mitigate it. If we're all being real, and knowing all the cap magic and tricks GMs have at their disposal, NO ONE should be getting so caught up on Cook's $15M/yr request.

Buffalo should 100 percent host one. All the non Super Bowl host cities should get it.

Why is everyone all excited about a guy that was a bottom of the barrel signing? He’s the Andy Isabella of Safeties. If he proves me wrong, great. If he gets cut for Hamlin, don’t be shocked.

D pole?

Yes, I agree. At 31 yrs old.
