Gilmore hurt because they got NOTHING for him and it was basically a certainty that he would be excellent and win a SB with NE. The Watkins trade was demoralizing because they had had a very good scoring offense that also lead the NFL in big plays in both 2015 and 2016..........and the Watkins trade basically guaranteed that they were going back to the stone age offensively. I can't unsee those horrible 2017 and 2018 offenses. Just disgusting terrible football.

Anybody who juggles two women by putting them up in the same hotel for Valentine's Day has suspect character. He's a real, unapologetic self-indulgent lizard brain type. To expect him to not let the leverage he has in his business relationship compromise his behavior is a leap of faith. Not saying he's a criminal by any means, just that he isn't trustworthy unless you have the leverage on him.

He will be on his best behavior until he gets a new deal. This deal puts him on notice because his guarantees are now gone. He was fine in Buffalo until he got the extension. It's human nature. Like getting paid up front to do a job. The eye tends to wander toward what's next. That's where the quality of character comes in and unfortunately Diggs doesn't have much of that.

The talent might have been real 5 years ago but it's safe to say after 3 serious injuries he isn't going to be running any 4.3's again. He has less career carries than Ty Johnson and but is probably washed. Reminds me of the Leonard Fournette fascination.......didn't matter what common sense should have told some Bills fans, they had to see it for themselves.

Agree. I have been envisioning this trade since all the smoke started around the Pro Bowl and felt Beane would have to get very creative to swing this deal. It would perhaps involve Diggs not being able to report to the Texans until June and the Bills trading a future #1 pick(say 2026) as a place holder for a current Texans day 2 pick(s). Then flipping Diggs to get that future Bills pick back in June when they had the cap space to make a deal. They kinda' need that 2nd or 3rd round pick NOW to maneuver for the now multiple WR's they want/need.

George Fant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Fant_(American_football) Fant was a decent college basketball player who had no NBA future........he joined the football team for his senior year at Western Kentucky and appeared briefly in 2 games as a TE. 2 years later he was the starting LT for the Seahawks. He is heading into year 8 of his career.

1) The problem is that he has played in only 24 of 67 potential regular season games in his NFL career.........and left a bunch of those injured, not to return. Among the very best? IS he though? He had some exceptional ypc in Greg Roman's offense but we witnessed a fading Shady and journeymen Karlos and Gilleslee all feast with league high type ypc figures under Roman. Personally, I think there is every reason to expect JK Dobbins to be washed after that myriad of injuries..........but even if you feel he's good to go you gotta' start by adjusting his ypc down about 20%. Look at Gus Edwards last year. Gus went from averaging over 5 yards per carry for his career under Roman to a sub-league-average 4.1.

People and their RB draft crushes. Dude is always hurt.

Yeah the internet killed April Fools Day thing. Now EVERY day has an inordinate amount of fake stories to sift thru. It has to be very amusing to be worth it.......the bar is set much too high for those not-clever people to reach.

I'm guessing this is addressed to me? He was an entitled 5 star safety recruit who was overrated athletically and lacked instincts. As a result he always seemed to arrive a tick too late to make a play and then out of frustration he would routinely deliver late hits and commit personal fouls and double down on his ineffectiveness. One of those knuckleheads who drove fans and coaches nuts. Reminds me a lot of Nigel Bradham.......5 star overhyped recruit turned day 3 pick.........who wasn't very smart, wouldn't fit in this defense at all now and was a frustrating sh!t show to witness when he had to play his first 2 years with the Bills.

His instincts and attitude are so poor that radar can't detect him.

Nice start to season with sweep in Houston. Soto and Whereswaldo had big series' and bullpen and defense were excellent. https://www.mlb.com/yankees https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/39848939/juan-soto-rbi-single-9th-gives-yankees-sweep-astros

Bad HC. Bad OC. Tired old QB.

Why would you do all that arguing over semantics? It IS the norm for big business to gouge customers for whatever the market will bear. It IS also the norm for big business to exploit and manipulate government........in ways ranging from skillfully avoiding taxes to benefiting directly from their application and WELL beyond. Your are far too concerned with the tactics when it's all the same strategy. If you are "not arguing against" PSL's..........why is the distinction of tactics so important to you?

The Jets have been building the best injured-list-bound roster in the league the past 2 offseasons. I wonder if Douglas sees something in Hasaan that makes him think this is the year he gets injured a lot?

Robert Woods was literally the perfect WR for Jared Goff. Goff knew he would be open on those intermediate routes so he could throw with anticipation confidently. Woods was getting killed in Buffalo with EJ delivering late "hospital balls". Had Woods talking to himself on the sideline like a lunatic.

No what I said isn't incorrect...........you just disagree that sacks and QB hits are as meaningful as "pressures". It's the opposite. The lack of hits and sacks allowed Allen to dominate the Chiefs defense in small chunks all day. For Allen and Mahomes, pressures are usually more aptly called "opportunities" to get out of the pocket and make plays. You won't get any argument from me on the impact and the value of having a Chris Jones though. The pressure he got on the play in question was big but Allen had been checking that ball down all day with great success. They got greedy and it made no sense why. Bad decision making by the Bills allowed Jones to make an impact he hadn't been able to prior. And as @HappyDays said, that was against LT Dion Dawkins. I am much better with selecting a LT in round 1 and playing him at guard as a rookie.

I see Khalil Shakir wearing Robert Woods same uniform number. And I think that's a big part of the reason we get Woods comps for him. Woods was quite a deep threat at USC. He tracks the ball well downfield but as a pro he had to settle for being more of an intermediate route runner due to modest size/speed. Shakir doesn't track it well down field but is notably faster and is much better wrt YAC than Woods. He's like a RB once he gets the ball. I'd have to go back and watch Amendola.

You've noticed this trend as well? I love how Beane bends the fans to his will thru manipulation of the truth. He took over the job with plenty of cap space and almost no future cap debt/commitments and declares with a straight face that the previous regime has left them in cap jail to explain getting rid of big name young players they just didn't want. He's been down for whatever he has to say from day 1 and the Pegula's needed that in a GM in 2017 more than anything.

NYSE:DIS up $1.38 today

It's a draft where they could definitely find another Christian Benford type late. Deeper at CB than that 2022 draft, IMO.

Aren't you raking in profits from your investment in Disney? Disney also charges whatever the market will bear for their products........their profit margins are not based on what's fair. I'm not trying to pick on you here. I enjoy your posts typically but you have a very "new money" idea of how capitalism works. There are going to be 40K+ people in that new stadium every week that contributed between $0 in taxes and the NYS share.......which is literally an ineffectual pittance in construction cost terms. The PSL matter is really just a stand alone price gouge. Like paying an extra $200 per person or whatever it is to get in the "fast" lines on your Disney stay.

I also doubt the Bills will use all 11 picks because McBeane like their veteran reserves..........but I think we have become conditioned to just assuming that he will draft a small amount of players without necessarily looking at the potential jobs available: 1 RB........this is basically a need 1 QB.......definitely could see a rookie beating out Trubisky, who I think is toast. 2-3 WR.........this position they definitely need multiple 1 TE 2-3 OL..........I will be disappointed if not AT LEAST 2. Preferably 3. 1-2 DT........with 3 30 somethings at DT they need youth 1 DE 1-2 LB........I don't think we can count on Spector to stay healthy so need a 5th LB at least 1-2 CB.......this draft is too good at CB to not come away with at least 1 high ceiling guy on day 3 1-2 S.........obvious need I think there are 11 or more potential openings for rookies on this year's cap-strapped roster. The Rams drafted 14 players last year and made a big jump into contention. Chiefs took 10 in 2022 and made themselves better largely thru that volume of rookie additions. The Bills using all those picks isn't Beane's MO but it's a strategy that's been paying dividends for other good organizations.

Yeah that's a good call on Lance Moore and that kind of usage. Forgot all about him. He was really good in that kinda' role.

It's true that Chris Jones is the best defensive player on the field that day anytime the Bills play the Chiefs. But the mistake Bills fans like yourself make is not realizing that the Chiefs can't get to Josh Allen either. Neither QB got sacked and each was hit only twice in that divisional loss this season. Combine this last loss and the "13 seconds game" matchup prior to it..........and each QB got sacked twice and Mahomes got hit 6 times and Allen only 4.
