    Honestly wow, learned a lot about him. He said he has no life outside of football. He sounds like a film junkie. Wants to be close with his QB. Watch film with his QB. 
     

    And he golfs a little!

     

    Wonder if he'll go the Edelman route and get a place near Josh in the offseason.

    Yes, Pat and Josh being 8th and 9th on this list should be adjusted after this season.  

     

    Mahomes is signed through 2031/37 years old. How is "should he be adjusted" lol. 

    @GunnerBill eluded to it here as well, but Allen will be amongst the highest cap hits in the league going forward, he still has one of the top 5 richest overall deals in the league right now, and is very high on the list in cash. The Bills and Allen seem to be operating at a reasonably fair value for both parties at the moment. 

    Allen has some big cap numbers coming up, I thought he might be an extension candidate this year to start to kick that number down the road a bit further. But otherwise his pay is fine reasonably fair for everybody. 

    We will see what happens with the cap, but I think the QB number will start to come down in the next couple years. I think the league will feel a little snakebitten by Russ, Watson, etc. and I am not sure Philly or LAC will feel like they are getting value from Hurts/Herbert. Not that they will start paying guys $30M AAV rather they will stabilize relative to to cap%.

    I said it, not last week, but when the Bills signed him.   

     

    He is NOT going to play strictly out of the slot.   I'm sure of that.  

     

    What is strictly? Like he takes 1 snap outside and suddenly you are a soothsayer? Almost no WR on any team in the NFL "strictly" just plays inside or outside. Curtis played nearly 70% of snaps from the slot last year. He also had similar usage under our OC Joe Brady when they were both in Carolina. 

    Even guys who are pure slot receivers like Isaiah Mckenzie still have seasons where they spend 40%+ of snaps on the outside.

    If you're serious, the thing about the Bengals is that what they did  was an accident of timing.   You simply can't run your franchise expecting that you can decide to have a receiver room like the Bengals have had and then just do it.   Timing allowed them to keep Boyd, then get the other two.   Certainly it's happened, and we've seen some other great receiver rooms come and go, but if I tried to build a team around that model, I could be waiting a long time before I have that kind of combo.  Lots of pieces fell together for the Bengals.  


    I agree with you. The alternating upper and lowercase means I’m making fun of those people/sarcasm.

    Good point.  Looks a lot like Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua, and Demarcus Robinson, before they became a deadly combination.  Or St. Brown, Reynolds, LaPorta, and Raymond. Kelce, Rice, Valdez-Scantling, Watson.  The style of offense these teams are playing, and getting good production in the passing game, is not dependent of big name receivers.   It's a style that repeatedly leverages the defense in ways that allow good athletes to get open.  Shakir, Samuel, Coleman, and Kincaid are good athletes and they will get open.

    49ers seem to have been sending mixed signals about whether Aiyuk or Samuel is available.   Sure seems like one must be, after going wideout in the first round the other day.  

     

    I'd much prefer Aiyuk.  The mix of skillsets he'd create would be a great combination.  Bills already have a Samuel-type; even his name is Samuel. 

    Your welcome, but don't put too much stock in it.  I'm happy to write what I think, but that doesn't mean it's correct!


    No they don’t. Deebo and Curtis aren’t similar receivers. It feels like last week one guy said that on here and now it just keeps getting repeated.
     

    Curtis Samuel has very little ability to play outside. He doesn’t have the size or strength to be effective there with any regularity.

    If it's costing 3rd round picks next year, I'd rather them stay put since thats ridiculous.

    I'm not as surprised when considering the cost of trading up.

     

    I have been bopping around the house with some projects. I haven't heard the cost of moving up. 

    Next years 3rds? That is some Madden return. It has been forever, but I used to do that. I once maxed out at like 12 first round picks. 

     

    But seriously, if we can get a 3rd for 128 I wouldn't hesitate. Especially with 141 right there.

    I have zero interest in watching a draft in that manner. Being in the middle of downtown 2 miles away from a stage listening to a loudspeaker. 
     

    Back in the day sitting in the NYC auditorium would have been my speed . I’ll sit in my recliner 


    Just in general I don’t get draft hype. Like I’m just going to watch somebody read a list….very slowly. 
     

    I watch at home, but sitting on my couch is a lot different.

    With this, the major kickoff changes, going to 17 and probably 18 games... it's like a new game. Most of the previous records will be meaningless. No one comes close to popularity of the NFL in the US. Why trying to fix something that isn't broken?

     

    Though I liked the padded helmets for practices, the limitation of practices overall and of padded contact practices, making players come off for a concussion tests, and many other changes. This seems overkill.


    I think they’re trying to fix the broken brains.

     

    Guardian helmets in Pop Warner and HS are starting to become a lot more popular. This is likely just sort of getting ahead of it. I suspect NCAA programs will also start soon

    That doesn't make sense.

     

    Before you would trade a pick, why wouldn't you ask them if they planned on taking "this person"?

     

     


    Right?

     

    Not to mention Dan Morgan, President of Football Ops in Carolina played for Carolina while Beane was President of Football Ops and worked under Beane before going back to Carolina.

     

    Of all the scenarios, Legette “sneaking” to Carolina after it was telegraphed all week and Beane’s relationship with Dan Morgan wasn’t one of them.


    And to base it all off of “my buddy guessed the first two picks so it must be right.”? Bahaha.

    Mr Cover 1 Greg T has been wrong several times.  He beat it to death that it was “IMPOSSIBLE” to move Diggs

     

    so I absolutely expect us to acquire a vet WR now

     

    I think their coverage reviews got so big so quickly they feel this pressure to be constantly pushing out content.

     

    Their content was so "information" based as in just breaking down the general responsibilities of certain coverages and basic reads that when they give an opinion or thought it has this weight of "reporting". Which leads to this "well Cover 1 says..." but they don't have the knowledge or inside line to support that kind of regular content creation.
