Oh, my bad, I thought it was the standard yearbook.

The Bills went 10-6 and lost a Wild Card game at Houston in OT.

Ha. It’s so smart of Beane and shows the value of relationships with other front offices. Get a guy you want to bring in without having to hope he clears waivers for next to nothing.

What a skeptical, bitter take. And completely wrong.

When you look at the Bills cap list two names really jump out: Murphy at #4 and Kroft at #16. Those two guys eat up 7% of the Bills’ cap this season. I wouldn’t mind seeing them both go unless Kroft’s foot thing is minor.

They can watch warmups and individual work as well. They just leave when the Bills move to team sessions (11 on 11 and 7 on 7).

Gee, I didn’t read the article and I’m going to guess he said - gasp - Josh Allen! What a shocker.

Matekevich is a stone cold lock. The man looking over his shoulder is Joseph.

Hodgins is not fighting with Duke for a spot. The decision is whether they keep 7 and that means McKenzie.

10 is Fromm. I think he’s toast. Hodgins is a lock.

A) He’s a draft pick in a ridiculously deep draft for WRs. B) He has exceptional size and hands. C) Unlike Duke, he is a prime candidate for poaching if he is on the PS. D) By all accounts he grasped the playbook quickly and does not look out of place. Yes, I think he’s a lock.

This is admittedly somewhat of a guess but I’m not sure CB is all that loved by his beat reporter brethren. Over on The Athletic today some folks were trying to get Joe B and Fairburn to criticize the Bills’ policies and support CB. Fairburn said the policies seemed overly restrictive but were clear and they all got them at the same time. CB violated them in his very first on-air appearance that day. Said if the Bills had not removed him from practice they would have “had a problem” with the local media and called it an “unforced error” by CB along with his promoting the Barstool naming rights tweet (which the NFL wants no part of). Later he also noted that CB was tweeting today so he’s “out of timeout.”

Crazy. Hodgins is safe for the 53. McKenzie does more than Duke. I really think they are going to keep 7 and Duke (if lucky) goes to the PS.

That's what you like to hear about your QB.

Yup. Just traded for him (conditional 7th rounder in 2023).

FWIW Joe B. and Matt Fairburn are doing a Q&A over at The Athletic right now and they don't think Duke makes the 53. They have Hodgins there, and McKenzie might be the odd man out unless they keep 7.

Bills defeated the Fish easily. Next up are the Steelers, who snuck by the Ravens. Not sure when voting begins.

Agree. Exactly what has Sweeney put on tape that will persuade another team to poach him?

Hopefully his agent isn't using that when he talks to teams...

I think bringing royalty into this locker room would really upset the culture.

I was thinking a good time to do the upgrade would be around midnight on 9/12. Shouldn't be much traffic late on a Saturday night.

Ok, this thread aged well. McD apparently just said Gilliam "has a long way to go" and he's now listed as a TE.

I think you're reading A LOT into camp reports if you took this away from them. I believe it's pretty clear the focus of this camp has been to develop chemistry with all of the new WRs. Knox has received good reports on his blocking, and I've only heard mention of one drop (that I recall). That said, this Kroft guy is snakebitten. Geez. I think he can claim the "boo boo foot" title away from Sammy Watkins.

In the XFL, perhaps. We have a winner.

The Buffalo News report from yesterday said the Bills worked on situational football as opposed to "drives" and Josh was 7/14 with one drop, two WR slips, and a throwaway on a rush. That means "functional" accuracy was 7/10. Maybe the passes weren't great or maybe some of the reporters don't know what they're looking at. Whatever. In other news, GMFB was reporting how awful the Bucs practice was yesterday, with Brady throwing picks and miscommunication all over the place. 9/13 can't get here quickly enough.
