I've been watching Schitt'$ Creek on Amazon Prime and it's decent. It isn't for everyone but stars Eugene Levy, Catherine O'Hara and Chris Elliott so it has it's comedic moments yet admit it took a few episodes for me to warm up to it.

As an NFL HC?
I could see Peyton readding him to the Saints staff and when Brees retires Peyton walking away and leaving the job in Marone's hands.
-
Anybody binge Mr. Robot? I admit the premier was pretty good so going to give the rest of season a chance.
-
What about Hankerson?
Schmitd is a keeper, Gillislee needs to work hard this off-season. Butler and Salas will fight for roster spots next year.
We claimed him to prevent the Patriots from re-signing him for their playoff run.
-
He didn't take much of a step up this year. Not sure I'd go hard after him. One guy who did step up this year. Not sure he'll ever be an NFL starter but if looking for a guy outside Round 1.
The QB I was referencing in this statement was Kevin Hogan.

yeah, he is not going to bring in anyone that doesn't run his system, and his DC is going to be more of a figure head while he is the mind behind it. If, and that's a big if, Rex gets rid of Thurman and replaces him with someone else, it's more likely to be someone he has a tie with in the past. I think Petting could be a possibility if there's a stolen here to be a DC and he has no other offers, but more then likely I can see him bringing in his brother Rob....
I could see Pettine replacing one of our 2 LB coaches since both weren't all that experienced when we brought them in and if we need a sacrificial lamb one of them makes sense. Maybe we also give Pettine an Associate HC title or something too but I can't see Rex cutting ties with Thurman as think their too close.

You can't cut all of the decent (and decently paid) players simply for the sake of cap room. The Bills' cap situation isn't going to be that bad anyway.
2016 it looks good but 2017 could be a dangerous cap year as Tyrod will be free and Gilmore's contract will be up. As a result I think the Bills won't be dishing out many big money deals this offseason.
-
I think all but one are fired. Jerry Jones needs a scapegoat for not having a better backup QB on the roster and the Indy owner is a moron.
Jones was in denial about the injuries to Romo and Dez being bigger than they were. The question is does he try and fill the depth at QB with Johnny Football and bring back Greg Hardy? Not sure will either help his team long term as think the Cowboys are in a downward spiral right now.

"Let's get a WR in the 4th round"
I don't get this kind of thinking. The 4th round is a real crapshoot, so counting on finding a starter that would take pressure off of Watkins there, seems like wishful thinking. We need someone better than Robert Woods (obviously). The only rounds that it would be reasonable to expect to get that kind of guy, would be the first 2 (and the even the 2nd is shaky).
Asking a rookie to produce is shaky. I mean would you say that guys like DeVante Parker or Nelson Agholor were difference makers this year? Amari Cooper started strong but disappeared down the stretch. Then there are the injured guys in White and Perriman. I think if we're going to free up Watkins we might want to consider taking a RT or maybe a LB in Round 1 of the draft and sign a saavy veteran ala what the Texans did with Nate Washington/Cecil Shorts III. I'd also be willing to draft a WR in the first 4 rounds in the draft to build some depth behind Woods.
-
When discussing QBs I don't see this name brought up in conversations: Jacoby Brissett. Is he eligible for next years draft?
He didn't take much of a step up this year. Not sure I'd go hard after him. One guy who did step up this year. Not sure he'll ever be an NFL starter but if looking for a guy outside Round 1.
-
Does anyone think we should cut Kujo? I'm not sure what to think, but he seems like an afterthought.
He's cheap young depth. You don't cut that, yet is he replaceable? Sure but not in this draft maybe next year when his rookie contract us up.
-
There are a lot of coaches for whom the chance to help choose the GM would be an attraction... my guess is Marrone is one of them.
They didn't let their GM pick their HC last time. Honestly Cleveland is a badly run franchise, they might luck out if get an good personnel guy that can bring in a solid HC candidate yet as eluded not sure who wants to go there unless it's a guy just begging to get his chance to prove himself and I can't see one of the big name guys that can be GM/HC land there either as I think their owner meddles way too much.
-
I think Marrone is an average head coach.
He seems to be able to get good assistants. Pepper and Schwartz for example.
I think Marrone knows how to identify guys who want a chance to prove themselves and piggy backs off them. I guess that's what a HC is supposed to do, I only wished when he was here he had gotten an experienced OC from the get go and made Hackett our QB coach.
-
You think after Byrd and Spiller they would stay away. Maybe they are hoping for another Greer
Ha! Let's not forget that Marrone served as OC with the Saints under Payton. It makes a little sense if they plan on a rebuild while Brees finishes out his contract.
-
Coby Fleener?
Butt is going back to school
Yeah I'd sign Fleener as a backup TE as he's better than what we have now.
-
I bet they're after Chip.
Talk is they might also go after Payton and in turn the Saints might go after Marrone.
-
But I just read in a thread yesterday that he was old and washed up. What to believe? The number
after his age: or his play on the field each week?
He and Graham have been the best defensive players on the field for most of the year and I agree with the OP, Lawson had a monster game today!
I think he's a good depth tweener starter guy. As he's been solid in coverage under Pettitine and a solid option under Ryan. I keep him around but still be looking in the draft in the top 4 rounds for a guy that can compete with him to start.
-
That kid Cajuste from Stanford could be a value pick late
He's intriguing but wonder about his down the field speed which always a concern with big WRs, he's teammate Hooper is a decent TE prospect too. I'd love for us to grab a TE early to build on our depth and make our offense that much scarier, Jake Butt from Michigan is intriguing as he has size and comes from the Harbaugh offense who of course we know Roman has ties too. I'd also take a chance in UFA on someone like Coby Fleener or Garrett Celek as think both could be bargain options that could step in as #2s here and improve our depth immensely.
-
This team is close, closer than it's been before. Yet we still have some things we need to improve on. Including TE depth, the O-line and WR depth. I have to think the defense is going to improve next year whether because Whaley will bring in the players that better fit Rex's scheme or maybe the players we keep buy into it. As I think today's performance by the D as good as we've seen all year considering who was playing. If we are going to go more 3-4 then we need a NT and anyone who thinks Kyle Williams can fill that role is sadly mistaken.
-
In the context of 16 seasons without making the playoffs and spending as much as we did last offseason on free agents and to sign our own players, this season was a disaster, not a disappointment.
and what would you call the Dolphins season? They may have spent more including big bucks to a guys like on Suh/Tannehill and elected to give money to Jordan Cameron instead keeping Clay who went to a division rival. To me that's a disaster especially if they bring in a new HC.
-
Polian disagrees. Unless by "aging and unathletic" he meant Richie and Urbik?
I stated in the other thread, the aging is Urbik and the unathletic is Henderson and Kujo.

So I've managed to be the best team of my league and now in line for the championship. I haven't had to ask for help since most weeks my lineup was easy pickings yet with the championship on the line I am asking for help. I've bolded who I'm leaning towards. please share all your thoughts.QB Blake BortlesPick 2 RBs: Latavious Murray, Danny Woodhead, Chris Ivory, Bilal Powell, Denard Robinson, Karlos Williams, Ameer AbdullahWR1: Antonio BrownWR2: DeAndre HopkinsWR3: Pick 1 Allen Hurns, AJ Green, Jermaine Kearse,TE Jordan ReedFLEX: Pick 1 Latavious Murray, Danny Woodhead, Chris Ivory, Bilal Powell, Denard Robinson, Karlos Williams, Ameer Abdullah, Allen Hurns, AJ Green, Jermaine Kearse, Gary Barnidge, Zach MillerK: Graham GanoDST: Denver Broncos.

TT was a great value UFA signing. that said he might not be the long term answer at QB. Nothing wrong with the Bills trying to improve the position this offseason as long as doesn't hurt us in other position that also need shoring up like offensive line, TE depth, WR, LB and DE.
-
They need runners. And tight ends who don't get hurt
I think we need TE depth, I'd love for us to draft someone in Round 2 of the draft that could compliment Clay as it do a lot to make our offense that much better.
