Oh my freaking god. What has happened to this place? Somebody start a thread about whether a 1st rounder was worth it for Diggs....please!

Houston has a HC without a brain -- that's got to be a handicap.

Here's a good trivia question: name the last time the Bills were in the top 10 in preseason o/u wins projection? I don't know the answer but it has to be a loooooooong time ago.

Some will label Allen "inaccurate" for as long as he is in the NFL...it doesn't matter what he does.

Any good RBs in that league? Edit: scratch that, there aren't.

In order of "like" -- 1. Diggs 2. Jefferson 3. Spain 4. Klein 5. Addison 6. Butler 7. Norman Not including Poyer extension here because (in my mind) that was a foregone conclusion. It would be a huge DISlike if they hadn't gotten this done.

I believe the potential "personality" problem some are fearing with Diggs is really overblown. Name one superstar receiver who doesn't always want the ball? I don't know what sort of locker room culture there was in Minnesota but we know what sort of room the Bills have. We also know that Allen is a guy his teammates love.

What I recall last season is Singletary's uncanny ability to gain extra yardage after contact -- something not many expected from a "small quick guy." With Gore gone I expect we'll see him get more opportunities. That said, I completely agree with the need to bring in at least one other RB to complement Motor.

Please remind me of the times Singletary lost yardage as a rusher.

...teams that maintain the most continuity are going to have an enormous advantage heading into the 2020 season, primarily because of the uncertainty regarding when/if teams will be able to get together to practice. Teams with new head coaches or significant changes on their staffs will be behind. Teams with lots of new faces will be behind. Teams relying heavily upon draft picks will be behind. In this regard, I'm even more ecstatic with what Buffalo has to work with. Total continuity on the coaching staff. Key additions are veteran FAs. They will not have to rely upon immediate contributions from draft picks. I think about teams like the Pats*** having to start a new QB...even in Tampa, so many new pieces to put together with Brady coming in. In the AFC I think the Bills, Chiefs, Ravens, and Titans look like the early favorites because they seem to have this continuity in spades.

They've been pretty damned spot on for a couple of years, pal. Just admit you're not a Bills fan and move on. The Jets bandwagon is heating up!

HBD Coach! I hope we're also celebrating your 60th on this board, thinking about what we need to do to win our 10th SB in 2034.

I don't like dealing in hypotheticals that are unlikely to play out. I'll leave that to idiots like our President.

Shoot, they may as well overturn the whole roster. Doomed.

LOLOLOLOL ROFLMAO Josh Allen is going to be the Bills' QB for (at least) the next ten years.

Hey, if nothing’s wrong, you can always make yourself feel worse by imagining a problem!

Because there are a lot of idiots who don’t seem to get it about how important this is. If a moron will listen to Big Ben because he likes the Stillers I’m all for it.

You really are a miserable guy, aren’t you?

Whenever I see this I think to myself "is this just BBFS" because I just don't see any logical reason to believe he won't be even better next season -- and he wasn't "bad" this year! JA puts in all the work, he's smart, and he learns from his mistakes. He has the consistency of the same OC and the Bills are giving him weapons. It's time to expect the Bills to be very, very good.

Did you actually just include Liuget as a "loss?" That's funny. Lawson has youth, but he has not shown that he will ever provide the sort of pass rush Addison brings. They are different types of players -- Lawson wins with power, while Addison has speed. At worst for the Bills it's a push, but I think most would give the Bills the nod here. Phillips was, to me, an enigma -- seemed to be dominant for stretches (Titans) but disappeared far too often. Jefferson and Butler more than make up for his departure. In my opinion the Bills' DL is absolutely better today than it was on Sunday -- and Beane isn't done.

I ASSume it will be extraordinary.

Yes. /thread

With Brady gone from NE***, I'll say that it wouldn't bother me terribly to see a renewed rivalry between the Bills and the Fish like we had in 80s and 90s.

I was opining based upon an article that called Klein a "key piece to re-sign" for the Saints.
