I have to say that I really love Keon’s personality after watching the press conference.

Are the callers any worse than some of the “talent” on WGR?

I hope that this trade does not bite us in the arse like the Mahomes trade did. I am not so sure. Up until last night, I had a lot of confidence in Brandon Beane (not so much McD). I will reserve final judgment until after tonight. So far, it does not look good and I did not agree with his explanation. I think that they realized that the trade was not particularly well received by anyone (other than the Chiefs) and is one of the reasons why it took forever to have the press conference. Also, I seem to recall that in the past Beane said that GMs make an attempt to find out what the other team is going to do or at least make sure that they are not going to pick the guy we want. He seemed to go in a different direction last night on this subject.

As a Miami Hurricane fan, I think this guy is very good.

Now I know who some of the posters are on this site. 😀

You sound like the sort that is unaware of how toxic Eichel and Diggs were. The proof of the pie is in the eating. If you have any doubt about it, just how toxic must a player be to trade a guy like Diggs for a future second round pick and take the cap hit that the team is taking. P.S. As for Reinhart, he had an expiring contract and was traded at the deadline. Different situation. I presume you already knew that. He also did not burn his bridges.

I will not individually embarrass them, but several of the posts of the Diggs' sycophants who steadfastly defended his "cryptic" social media posts and actions certainly did not age well. How toxic must a player be for a team to trade him for a future second round pick and take such a cap hit. Some of us tried to warn people. Oh well, we move on . . . .

Shocking. RIP

Good for Tre. His agent must be outstanding because the $$$ are more than I expected given his injury and injury history. Perhaps some of the money is for his goaltending expertise.

Thanks to McD's trade of the rights to draft Mahomes, being able to win has been a lot easier for Andy.

I guess that would depend on just how good Marvin Harrison Jr. is and how the Bills evaluate him. As for the bad memories about what we gave up for Sammy, I agree and that would make me hesitate as well. For those of you who have seen Harrison play more than I have, is he a generational talent? If yes, a trade would be tempting. If not, keep our 2025 pick for next year.

Regarding drafting Josh: I give most of the credit to Beane and Pegula (no secret that Terry was a primary promoter of Josh as well as Mahomes). Regarding developing Josh: I give very little credit to McD (especially when one looks at which side of the ball our first round picks have been). I give most of the credit for Josh's development to Josh and his offensive coordinators and QB coaches.

This is true (perhaps this would be Andy's way of repaying McD for trading the right to pick Mahomes). McD would forever be known for that trade. Without Josh, I can only imagine how bad our record otherwise would be. McD (and we) are VERY LUCKY to have Josh.

McD told everyone we are winning the Super Bowl. Didn't he say it is not a question of if but when?

How many wins would we have had over the past few years without Josh???? We were very lucky that he was available and very lucky that he developed. I stand by what I said: if we did not have Josh, McD would be remembered as the guy who traded the opportunity to pick a generational QB (against the owner’s wishes) and would have been long gone by now.
