    Honestly, I think CMC would benefit from the rotation style we have here. Less wear and tear on the body and keep him ready for January, when the games truly matter. It would be the same type of effect as having a healthy OBJ. The question would be who is the defense going to focus on? Diggs, Davis, CMC, Knox, Shakir, McKenzie? It really would be pick your poison and there would be no way to shut it down completely. 

    sure thats fine, but his price tag of 12 million suggests he needs to be on the field as much as possible.

    I'm going back to thinking that they should just put a giant tent over the entire existing stadium and concourses, plus room for food and other vendors and additional restrooms.

     

    The protected stadium would last another 50 years out of the elements and it would save mils.

    I think this is a joke, but i can never tell anymore. 

     

    Regardless, the 300s of the current stadium are crumbling and will be bordering critical reconstruction by the time the new stadium opens.

    The Legend of Gabe Davis is far better than the actual player.  He’s a good player, being elevated by Josh Allen.  He’s a number 2 on this team, but a #3 or #4 on others.  I like the kid, but this is another Bills fan over reaction to a couple of flashy plays.

    "A couple of flashy plays" he says.... right.

     

    I assume you also think he and Jake Kumerow are interchangable.

    It has much more to do with the line in front of him allowing him to move freely and confidence in knowing where he needs to be.

    so even Ray Lewis said you are only as good as the line in front of you.

     

    Shocking the Bills add bigger bodies up front and now the LBers are allowed to move freely. 

     

    I like Edmunds and would like to see him remain, but I cant se the Bills affording to be paying him 14-17 Mil a year. Can't pay everyone

    I was a mayo skeptic until the butter I had available was still in the fridge.  Gave the mayo a free agent try out.  First team all american HOF'er  🥇  🏆

    This thread has served its purpose.

    In my post, I did say "if needed."  By that, I mean if an injury happens to McKenzie or Shakir.  Regardless of what Austin has or hasn't done in his career, he does have a skill set that might enable him to produce in the right circumstances.  The Bills think that is enough of a possibility to keep him on the roster.  It wouldn't be the first time a player blossoms on his third or fourth team after having struggled early in his career.

    Austin is 31 and on his 5th or 6th team.

     

    He's averaged 20 yards a game receiving and 34 total YPG in his career. 

     

    Thinking he's going to come in and be this guy that produces even decent numbers is asking a lot, IMO.

    Not a critical loss.  I think McKenzie and Shakir will share the slot receiver load.  Tavon Austin is available if we need him.

    Yea because Tavon Austin has been great everywhere he’s been. 
     

    also having McKenzie and Austin is redundant. Austin is a lesser McKenzie at this point.

    The way I see the OBJ situation is this: the man is an undoubted talent. There is also a reputation of being a headcase/diva. The most common way to get over that reputation is to sign on with a winner on a quick contract, show what you can do, keep your head down and mouth shut. And that's what he did with the Rams...only to be injured at the worst possible time.

     

    But there's no reason to undo the formula. It makes too much sense to wait down the stretch for all sides. Teams want to make sure they are really competing for something AND have a need at the position. OBJ wants to make sure he picks a winner. 

    Its not just OBJ, id check on Fuller, Sanu, Hilton, Humphries.

     

    yea, all injury issues but talented nonetheless.

    we dont need OBJ. Did you see how Shakir toe tapped the sidelines? has anyone talked to you about the dudes speed 4.43 and reportedly he was sick that day? Digs is not getting any younger, we need to keep bringing up youth. Crowder has been a disappointment.

    The Bills currently as of today have TWO heathy WR's on the roster.

     

    They need more than Shakir.

    We've got guys on the PS who they can call up.  Hopefully both McKenzie and Kumerow will be back soon, also.

     

    For a HEAVY passing offense they have 2 WRs not on the injured list at the moment. Id not call that fine at all.

     

    Tavon Austin has not been "good" no matter where he has been and Hodgins is a complete unknown.

    right now we have Shakir, we're fine right now. But it'd be wise to look ahead for more depth in case God's forbid any more injuries strike.

    They are not fine.

     

    They have:

     

    Diggs

    Davis (Clearly hurt and trying to play through it, needs a week or two off to heal)

    McKenzie (Injured currently)

    Shakir

    Kumerow (Injured currently)

    Crowder(injured currently)

     

     

    Id call Will Fuller and give him a tryout.

    So want to show me where Milano wins his assignment and Edmunds doesnt?  

     

    I can show Milano not winning his assignment.  So that means what he is a bad LBer?

     

    Fact is there are 32 teams in this league that WOULD be bidding on Edmunds if he hits UFA.

     

    Based on your Take Milano is the Better LBer.  You have the data right that shows Milano winning assignments at a higher rate then Edmunds?

    Tremaine Edmunds for some reason has had the most unrealistic expectations cast upon him teh second he was drafted.

     

     

    Its funny though how when there is a big run play its always Edmunds fault and never Milanos.

     

    Edmunds will go to Baltimore or Pitt next year, IMO.

    Agree. He doesn't need to practice to get into shape. He is allowed to do that now while on PUP. He can work out. He isn't allowed to do any football stuff. But as you say, vet, been in the system 5 years.... while you may want to have him on a pitch count the first couple of weeks to let him get used to the exertions of a football game the idea that he needs 2 or 3 weeks of practice before he can get on the field is for the birds I think. 

     

    Anyone know when we find out? Is it today or tomorrow that they can activate him? I repeat what I said last week... if he is not activated this week then there has been a setback we have not been told about. 

    Yea, you and I talked about this a little last week and are displeasure on how McD and co communicate injuries IE "Phillips being day to day" when it was known to be more serious.

    Sounds like the OP listening to WGR this morning. 

     

    "I'm concerned about the offense."

     

    -- Jeremy White hot take of the day

     

    Because we're not taking deep shots.  

     

     

     

    No.  Be concerned about the RBs and Gabe Davis ankle.  And Knox's foot.  And I guess replacing Crowder.  

     

    Not about the offense - it is an elite offense.  Maybe this is just their way of saying "yea we were wrong about neglecting RB because duh analytics."

     

    Jeremy also argued with Sal saying he wanted Cook to play more.  Ridiculous.  He hasn't earned it.  

     

     

     

    In that weather yesterday (it matters) we scored 20 points from the end of the 2nd to the end of the game having the ball less then about 15 minutes.  

     

    We just faced the 3 toughest Defenses we'll see all year - Rams Miami and Ravens (their secondary is good I don't care what the inflated stats from the Miami implosion say).  

     

    The O needs Davis and Knox healthy.

    ummm neither has Zach moss and his sub 2 YPC but we still continue to plunge him into a pile of bodies and waste a down.
