Y'all are on one. Worthy isn't the 2nd coming of like Tyreke Hill here people I mean, folks realize that most analysts and scouts had AD Mitchell ahead of Worthy yes? That's the dude I thought the Bills would be targeting. He's a prototypical perimeter guy. They don't need another midget

When I played freshman football in 1995 I was an X

We need two because you can’t put that much pressure on Shakir to be a borderline all pro. In the past the bills could get away with just 5 WRs because of how good Diggs and Davis were. They’re gonna need 6 or 7 IMO

These kinds of dudes are rare - but probably super valuable here, given what else is on the roster. Think DK Metcalf. What’s interesting is that in the modern game they’re probably not gonna really reach elite status and they’re fairly limited in what they can do. Like DK won’t run routes that require sharp cuts. He runs posts, flys, crossers, and deep outs. That’s gonna be Justin Shorter as well. Jahan Dotson probably profiles as your average X these days. 6-1, and he wins with quickness and moves and route running rather than physicality

route trees are very different there. If anything, I think Justin Shorter gets first crack at replacing Davis if they stay in house

Come on man EDIT It occurs to me you might be being sarcastic

Nah, having a safety just shaded over or a backer shaded over makes a pretty significant difference. Teams don't double Kelce and others, they layer coverage. Don't think Diggs is wrong here.

As my therapist says - you gotta do you!

Yesterday the Bills had 7.5M in cap space. Today they have about 4M. What is the opportunity cost of that 3-4M?

I don't think any team would take this because the Bills will pick too low and no team has 32 first round graded players. Much more realistic is possibly getting to 9-12 in the hopes of getting Rome Odunze, and then if not him getting into around 15 and getting Brian Thomas Jr

That's my belief. I don't particularly care WHO the players are. But he's getting deep threats, and that's right in Brady's wheelhouse for what he wants on offense.

Beane said they weren't done. This is not what the Bills will look like in Sept

A rookie first rounder is like 19M over 4 years. Maybe trading for someone like Tee Higgins you'd use that full cost, but then you're getting 2 players for 1 Diggs

This is driving me insane. This is not how to portray Dead cap. It's THREE MILLION They're not anywhere close to contending and DK is their best way to get picks

so you'd turn down this year's and next year's 2nd round picks for DK Metcalf so you can double dip this season?

What did Beane say?

Meh, Josh Allen vs CJ Stroud is still the big story here

y'all see what Brian Burns went for?

I think the draft point guide thing is my most disliked modern feature of the NFL media complex. How tf you gonna measure value when you don't even know the player who comes in, and you're not even taking into account the needs of a team. You want a player that you think is gonna complete your roster and elevate you to SB contender? Go get him and damn the stupid charts

The best way to look at this is the Bills gave up Stefon Diggs + $3M in cap space in 2024, bottom 10 6th and a 5th rounders, for a top 10 2nd in 2025 and 30M in cap space going forward

This ain't finished

Tis not. Unless the Bills safety room collapses

We'd have to give up 5 years worth of 1st and 2nd round picks to get JJ

The time to trade first rounders is when you're ready to contend. The time to collect high picks is when you need to rebuild off an aging roster. The bills got significantly younger this off season, without using any draft capital. They have an open window, and if they can use their first to get a legit star WR, and then use their 2nd to add a rookie WR I think that would be the ideal scenario. I would literally give up this yeatrs 1st, next years 1st and the viking 2nd to go get DK Metcalf for example
