I don’t know that Diggs has ever been the “take over a game” type WR1.
Maybe a Steelers game a few years back?But I do think he’s still a WR1.. and a good one at that. But with just a slight dip due to age, the lack of WR2 threat opposite him has been far more of an issue.
This is where I’m at. Need to start drafting WRs that can eventually be Josh’s WR1. That said, I still think Diggs is at a WR1 level, maybe just not a top 5 guy like the last couple of years. And that could dip to WR2 or less before too long.-

Josh has pretty much become the Tom Brady of the division, in that all the other teams are in QB purgatory and going through the revolving door of QBs while trying to catch up with us. Meanwhile, McD’s D can just feast on the young prey.

Maybe we’re locking Dion down with a long-term deal, but the thought of Buffalo being his long-term home is depressing to him? 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️

His production with Big Ben was pretty good but if the Steelers want out there's a reason. Outside of Pickens and Freiermuth, I don't think the Steelers are committed to any of their skill position players.
They prob want to beef up their draft capital and land one of the cheaper, younger WRs in this draft. Essentially like when the Vikes traded up Diggs, and ended up with Justin Jefferson.-

If the Bills can get Henry for $4M plus incentives, I do that all day. Guy would be a huge step up from the backup RBs we had last season, probably could be a 50/50 split with Cook when both are healthy. Then draft someone in the late rounds too, to add more youth to the room.

THIS IS BS!!!! We were supposed to be pick 99 and instead the Niners who get AN ENDLESS SUPPLY OF COMP PICKS take our spot
Yep, and then when the 49ers are good again next year, Brock Purdy will continue to get talked about as league MVP, when he’ll have a stacked roster around himself. -
O’ Cyrus Torrence emerges as a Pro Bowl borderline All-Pro level guard.

Hailee can’t take Josh anywhere!
In all seriousness, this would have never happened to Tom Brady in his prime. Tom always made sure to keep his waistline and legs in check, no matter how skinny the jeans.

When the Bills win a title, there are players I'm going to think about w/ gratitude, and wishing that they could have achieved that goal while they were on the team.
Hyde & Poyer top that list. They helped give the Bills D a fierce identity, and were always a joy to watch. I wish both guys the best.
I’ve always had a vision of the 90s HOFers all being there when we finally win it all, and celebrating with the current team. Next year in NOLA, party on Bourbon Street?-

Aside from what LA did, most obvious examples were Manning and Brady going elsewhere in the twilight of their careers. Which further points to this being a QB driven league. I’d say point is don’t break the bank during FA, which the Bills can’t really do this year anyway.

Great news for all. Hines can focus on his passion for jet skiing now too.

Jerry sullivan tried to do what the coach did on the newspaper. Dickerson was lovable somehow.
To me the difference is Dickerson had the advantage of having actually coached the game, AND the chance to be verbally heard. Hence, a lot more credibility than Sullivan and a chance to connect more directly with his audience. Plus, it always felt like the Coach at least wanted to see the team win, whereas with Sullivan, felt like he enjoyed when the team was losing.-

Not to be picky, but to clarify: salary money, as far as I understand it, is only charged to the cap during the year that the salary is earned (ie, when the player plays). Salary is basically for playing time; bonuses are extra and don’t have to be counted in the year the player plays—they are spread out over the life of the contract.
So you don’t put salary money into void years, because the player is not playing during the void years. Void years are only for bonus money, and for the purpose of spreading out the bonus money over more years, lessening each year’s cap hit but extending the cap hit over more years.
This is one reason you often hear salary money being converted into bonus money—it lowers the salary cap hit for that year, so that more of the player’s earnings is bonus money, which can then be spread out over more years. Adding void years allows you to then spread it out over even more years.
No worries here, appreciate the clarification on salary money v bonus money and the latter being what you can spread out. -
If I’m thinking about it right, if you put too much of your players’ salaries into Void years, you effectively could put your team into cap hell in the future. Having to account for the cap hit on players that may not even be on your team anymore.

Kind of just creates another need for them, too. They're already short good WR's.
MVS kind of sucks though, in my opinion. If I have $12M to spend or a few more bucks, I’d spend it on a guy like Gabe Davis before MVS.-

The comparison here is Trey Lance because of the draft position and cap hit and the 49ers were able to get a 4th round pick. There are a few teams out there with a ton of cap room who want to add a qb to the competition. I think the Commanders, Bears, Patriots, and Raiders could deal a late round pick for him.
I don’t know, with Lance there’s still an element of unknown and upside. Wilson’s shown enough to me that he just sucks.-

Lots of back and forth about who is lying here, but still no one asking why she was playing football with Hill.Is this a euphemism for rough sex?
Lol the story explains that her 10 year old son had signed up for one of his camps, which in some way led to him inviting her to his place and having all 6’1” of her line up as a D lineman then O lineman in his backyard. Both of them seem to be extremely special. -
RIP Coach

Interesting. Well, we will likely need to find a new FS for ourselves. If Benford and Elam (or Tre) can serve as the starting outside CBs, and Douglas take over FS, helps fill some holes on the D.

TRADE: Mac Jones headed to the Jags

You might want to check again, we didn’t lose to Zach Wilson this past season bc of McDs D, it was Josh’s boneheaded second half that gave the game away. But that aside, as long as the Bills keep winning the division, these teams are going to be second guessing their QB situations and shuffling through one guy after another. Much like we had to do for almost 20 years.
