Dhop

i avoided those....they didnt help my arguement.....lol 2017 - dawkins & milano 2018 - taron johnson & wyatt teller (yea i know) 2019 - singletary & knox 2020- davis, bass, hodgins (yea i know) and i'm sure you can name alot of misses seriously tho, there is not a direct coorelation between rookies playing and team success.....of the final 4 conference championship teams, only 1 (cincy) made that top 10 list

fellowship, laughs, valuable insight....you know, the usual

there are so many other ways to acquire and retain talent that hinder rookie playing time that skew the OP metric trades, free agent, extending your own players as far as drafting goes, here's a recap of recent first round picks (not to shabby) 2017 - tre white 2018 - josh allen 2018 - tremaine edmunds 2019 - ed oliver 2021 - greg rousseau 2022 - kaiir elam

Bills fall 7 spots, from pick #27(late 1st) to #34 (early 2nd) , which on the Rich Hill trade value chart nets/ is equivalent to a 3rd round pick. we still have our other 2nd round pick #59

seems these guys always need a deadline of some sort guessing this one is draft day that puts 300 pages in range

funny to me that when it was announced that poyer was coming back to the bills......it was immediately followed by lavontae david back to bucs coincidence ??.....i say no

i'm just here to get to 200.....lol seriously, the bills are one WR2 from dominating dhop is just 1 year older than diggs. he is a legit superstar #1 WR give josh more time (OL) and 1 more weapon and lookout !!.....all the defense needs to do is get healthy this needs to be the year of the offense GO BILLS !

imo the bills are going to win the super bowl this season might not be unpopular....but definitely in the minority

ESPN analytics five thirty eight ranks gabe davis the 100th best WR in NFL......thats like a bottom end #3 wr the have Diggs ranked 4th best overall https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/nfl-receiver-rankings/ the bills clearly need a wr2

arizona is not getting 2nd & a 3rd cooks just went for a 5th & 6th heck, if they're not careful, AZ might have to give a pick to unload that contract

everything you're saying is true....let me try to make my point a different way the salary cap is going up $30 mil for all teams.....but the bills have already pushed more dollars into the future than our main opponents. they will be in much better position to improve their roster. spotrac estimated cap space for 2024: Bills minus $17 mil (thats over the the cap already) KC plus $62 (under) Cincy plus $109 (under) this is just a generalization....we can quibble about who is or isnt in those cap totals

Allen / diggs / von combined cap hit for 2023 is $40 mil Allen / diggs / von combined cap hit for 2024 is $100 mil this is pretty strong evidence that beane is going for it now bills are currently right up against the salary cap and have already mortgaged part of our future years we currently have somewhere in the range of $5-10 mil in avail cap space that forces beane to make several small incremental upgrades with proven veterans on short term (1 yr) low salary ($2mil) deals when a superstar high cap player like hopkins is added....it likely means something might need to exit...like say an ed oliver so i reject the notion the bills aren't going for it.....any more going for it would be reckless would i take the rams model of winning the super bowl then totally blowing it up a couple years later....hell yea, but there is no guarantee..... how painful is it now to be a rams fan in 2023

the ball hit gabe davis right in his extended left hand and deflected straight down thru his bread basket and to the ground. id call it a drop. sauce gardner coverage was so tight that gabes right hand/arm was hindered trying to raise it up and never got it on the ball. with all the hand checking, gabe never jumped up to high point the ball. gabe had a mediocre season but supposedly played thru a high ankle sprain most of year. hope he takes advantage of his opputunities....i feel like one of the new WR's or shakir will outplay him

dhop has 2 years left on his deal but NONE of it is guaranteed. all his guaranteed money has been paid. his salary in 2023 is $19.45 and $14.915 in 2024. Arizona is on the hook for a 2023 cap hit of $30.7 mil. if they cut him now his dead money is $22.6 for a savings of $8.1 or they could designate post june 1 and push some into 2024. if they keep him in 2023 his cap hit for 2024 is $26.2 with $11.3 in dead money. dhop "had" a no trade clause. it was terminated with his PED suspension. if traded, the new team is on the hook for $19.45 in 2023 and $14.915 in 2024 none of it guaranteed.

Could trading for DeAndre Hopkins get the Bills to the Super Bowl ? Add him now. Help out Allen. Figure out how to move money around later. https://www.foxsports.com/stories/nfl/could-trading-for-deandre-hopkins-get-the-bills-to-the-super-bowl

#1 - Simple restructure Within the constraints of the remaining terms of the contract, a simple restructure turns payouts into prorated signing bonuses. Simple restructures can often be carried out by teams without the player's direct involvement. #2 - Maximum restructure A maximum restructure either extends the deal or adds vacant seasons to an agreement. These years do not stretch the contract but are solely used as stand-ins for the proration, increasing the cap space via modification into prorated signing bonuses. Maximum restructures are often viewed as a contract rework that requires the player's express approval to be executed. https://www.sportskeeda.com/nfl/nfl-glossary-how-nfl-teams-restructure-contracts#:~:text=In order to free up space under the,can spread the impact out over five years. i'm a little shocked about #1......but seeing as the remaining terms are likely not guaranteed......and that the signing bonus defacto makes it guaranteed....no player would turn that down

i'm guessing arizona is the hold up bills have the best offer in, but they're hoping for something a lil better

d = domestic ?

read somewhere the packers are helping to mediate the compensation.....lol

i'm just here to help get to 100

if kc gets hopkins....i'm going to have to avoid this place for a week......the doom and gloom crowd will be unbearable

seeing as we need a WR & OT....they split the difference and go TE ??

normally beane sets his price and thats it he wants this so bad there might be some wiggle room taking more time

when they said 7pm did they mention a time zone ?
