    Spitballing on RB target for Bills

    The  problem is the  opportunity cost of a 1st rounder.    In FA you can buy the top tier RBs for around $6-7M, while  the price for good WRs is over >20M.   Viewed in that light I think it is pretty obvious what the FO should be trying to acquire with the 1st round pick.  Another 3rd or 4th round RB plus low priced veteran is fine.

     

    To the OP, plenty of RBs remain - Fournette, Michel, R Penny, M Gordon, McKinnon.  Waiting is paying off as the price is dropping - Miami foolishly paid $6M for Edmonds while Patterson is down to $5M. 

    Ah I see someone took econ 101... lots of indifference curves

    Current Bills salary cap situation - 4/8/2022 12:50 PM $200.1MM - taken for “Top 51” - Sportrac current estimate is that Bills are over by $2.8MM for all - Link to Sportrac in 1st post

    As of this moment the Bills have (per Spotrac) $18.9M in cap space.

    What is missing is this years cap hits for the following players.

    Von Miller

    DaQuan Jones

    Rodger Saffold

    OJ Howard 

     

    Everyone is free to determine what they guess the remaining cap will be after the contracts drop.

    I say it will be pretty close to even.

    Does sportrac account for all the restructures.. in another words when was the last update?

    If we start from the premise we are almost certainly the #4 then here is how I think it lays out (our slim chance of being the #3 is for a Burrow-less Bengals to lose to the Browns next week).

     

    Scenario 1: 

    NE beats MIA

    IND beats JAX

    LAC beats LV

    Buffalo plays New England in the wildcard

     

    Scenario 2:

    NE loses to MIA

    IND beats JAX

    LAC beats LV

    Buffalo plays Indianapolis in the wildcard

     

    Scenario 3:

    NE beats MIA

    IND beats JAX

    LV beats LAC

    Buffalo plays New England in the wildcard

     

    Scenario 4:

    NE loses to MIA

    IND beats JAX

    LV beats LAC

    Buffalo plays Las Vegas in the wildcard

     

    Not sure if this was asked later one, but what happens if Cincy lose to Browns and Bills win moving them up to 3 seed?

    Signing Sanders in retrospect may have been a mistake... not enough balls to go around, throws the rhythm of the other guys off, especially when the O line isn't good enough.  Would have been better investing in O line.... Up the middle on D line... wow they got blown of the ball, need another stud linebacker... Breida seems serviceable but running back by committee isn't working.  Injuries killed them and Colts took advantage.  Just my opinion.

    Don’t get me twisted - I didn’t say that the Dems have overall lower connection to the working class than the GOP right now. I said the GOP has the opportunity to make big gains because the door is open wider than it has been possibly ever due to the Dems having lower connection than they have at least in decades. 
     

    Now whether the GOP takes advantage of the opportunity (they won’t) is up in the air. The messaging post-Tuesday seems to indicate that they’re missing it. 

    Ah got it ty... I actually think the problem is the messengers or the way the messengers come across... a retread was not ideal... playing the negative game doesnt help which they did in VA against a young positive guy... voting against someone is a short lived high... both sides play that game but it isnt sustainable... still both sides have been inconsistent in their messaging making it tough... their hypocrisy doesnt help

    Counterpoint: Democrats are literally incapable of not doubling down. Admitting they were wrong about even one part of the ideology causes the entire thing to fall apart.

     

    GOP needs to hammer it all: the cultural issues AND the working class economic issues.  Rare opportunity for the GOP here; the Democrats have never had less connection with the labor class than they do now.

    False but it depends on what working classes... min wage Dems good, hospital workers except those QAnon crazies Dems good... labor rights and healthcare Dems good GOP baad.  Small business lotta lip service by both sides but GOP wins on tax issues.  Safety issues including police mixed but GOP wins because far left has an issue with police... inflation right now GOP wins by not being Dems... GOP favors big business so no matter what they say we all know where tax breaks go and it isnt to working classes... still on rhetoric it goes back and forth.

    The GOP just made double digit gains in Virginia on the back of “cultural issues.”

    Oh agreed because Dems ran a retread with no appeal and GOP ran on cultural but also economic issues of high gas prices consumer prices and supply chain stuff as well as Dem over reach.  If GOP stays on that they will compete but neither side can sustain on their own base.  GOP downplayed cultural stuff in the end... If they govern on right wing crazy agenda itll flip again... VA want good government not ideological govt... its a loser for both sides.

    what ever the outcome republicans better, do something!!! dont sit there and wag your finger and think simply blocking radical left sh** is enough. the left has gone so far any gains are just a result of their insane over reach, not any republican agenda. imo

     

    they better step it up with something better then a lower taxes and bootstraps agenda or its just a huge lost opportunity to remake the party that acctually captures the culture from the years of smears they been on the $#[+ end of. and i see the pendulum swinging back quickly.

    If GOP make it about cultural issues and Trumps crazy agenda itll flip again folks want improvements in economy... yes environmental improvement but not to detriment of economy... ie high gas prices... figure out supply chain... culturals wars are losers for both parties and people are sick of them...
