Even as currently calculated I think Cinci has over 35 million in cap space.

After the year he has just had Marvin Jones will be resigned by the Bengals, who unlike us have lots of space. I do agree he would be the ideal # 2 for us. Sanu has expressed some disatisfaction at being underutilized in Cinci's O and given what all else they have on the roster thats not going to change. So he could be a good target for us that would not break the bank.

Thanks. And GunnerBill.

You are absolutely right. And its not just one instance - and thats really the point. There is a very very long list of outstanding WRs that other teams have found in the mid to late rounds of the draft. We have typically gone for the duds in the same drafts, often picking them ahead of the gems other teams have landed. The current FO is not good at scouting, drafting and developing WRs (unlike teams like the Cards, Steelers, Giants etc...and one might even include losers like the Browns). Sure Sammy is probably an elite # 1 in the making but he was also pretty much a slam dunk and we had to burn 2 firsts to get him - hardly astute, more of a slam dunk.

What is your evaluation?

Not saying PacMan should not have been flagged (or Burfict - or Shazier for that matter). Saying Porter should have been flagged as well, especially when the result is to turn a long field goal on a rainy night into a chip shot and gift wrap a playoff game. If it is a refs discretion it was clearly improperly exercised.

I thought as a technical matter only HCs and medical staff have the right to be on the field attending an injured player. And Porter was not even doing that. He was instigating trouble as anyone familiar with him knows. If Burfict has a bad rep that deprives him of the benefit of the doubt should be the same for Porter. Brown is not his player anyway. Porter is a linebackers coach.

He used to do exactly that when he was a player. Peesy hasnt changed. No excuse for the Bungles shooting themselves in the foot tho even if it is a high intensity emotional game

Maybe. Maybe not. Dalton was back for that game.

If Vontaze does not get the benefit of any doubt neither should Peezy. They are both bad actors.

Dont disagree. I doubt Vontaze ever knows what hes doing. But Dion has a point. Looking at it in slow mo it was a glancing blow and it can be argued that he was actually turning away. If he really wanted to permanently disable Brown he certainly could have.

Dion says it was a bad call. Vontaze was trying to avoid hitting. Momentum type thingee.

Dumb as a box of rocks

Taking a page from the Bills gamebook

Cockrell game ball lol

Vontaze game ball!

Dumb playcall

Game over.

Cmon you know I meant Marvin lol

Come to think of it where has Jones been?

Wheres the flag?

Exactly. Its football and what he did is called leadership.

Huh? This one is gonna turn into a dogfight. Suggest you stick around.

Interested to see how McCarron makes out. Fell 2-3 rounds in the draft because teams thought he was cocky. Tonight he can shut them up - or not.

What are you talking about? I was responding to a post that claimed FCS (and presumably lower) QBs couldn't cut it in the bigs. See Gonzo's post # 33 for further details. What does having Tyrod Taylor have to do with any of this? Are you suggesting we should forget about grooming a prospect because of Tyrod? Or maybe you think we already have a QB prospect on the roster to develop. In either case you would be mistaken. Consider making a more reasonable argument viz "a team with fewer needs than the Bills can better afford to invest in a player like Wentz" for example. Its a better road to the same place. Tyrod Taylor doesn't need you to defend his interests. He can take care of himself.
