Pass. Too expensive, too old, plays a 3-4, and was hurt and Covid last year. We don’t have the $ to pick up an expensive FA. I wanted to give it a shot, but a bunch of top guys are already gone.

Agreed MM. I’d add Star returning also helps Edmunds. SC, good points. Frazier’s scheme was really out of necessity IMO, as our players weren’t good enough to get there with four. Therefore out of need we had to blitz. We can only hope as MM mentioned, Edmunds can get back to his sideline to sideline play. I’m hopeful a rotation of Oliver and Butler in his normal position, along with that Beast in Star, amd Jerry may improve to a degree. My concern is the Epenesa/Addison rotation. I was underwhelmed to say the least in Addison. I was taken in on the avg. of 9+ sacks the four previous years for Addison. I saw flashes from Epenesa, but not acquiring someone better yet is unfortunate. I’ll table judgment until the dust settles. GB has been on record several times indicating Addison was fading the last few years.

He went to the Raiders fir $13 mil./yr., fir two years. I was a little surprised as he was projected in value at $15.5 mil. I would’ve liked him for his skills, but moving on. It is a little odd he’s joining his 4th team in three years. I can understand his issues with Ajax, but MN wasn’t a bad team, and the Ravens definitely not a bad team. Most players like Harbaugh.

Well, they made it through three reductions in Morse, Butler, and Addison, but I haven’t seen any restructures yet (kicking the can down the road). It’s not Beane’s MO especially as he had to clean up the mess he inherited. I’m guessing he may ask for one or two more reductions before it’s over. As of now, we have $10.1 mil. In space, but Spotrac projects we need $6 mil. for the draft. Many teams like $5 mil. for an emergency fund for injuries during the year, so it’s a matter of waiting to see if there are any restructures, reductions or releases before we can consider any other acquisitions.

Bruce, I believe it’s in Buffalo. The AFC is the home team in the 17th game, but you’re right in 2023 we play them in Washington for our normal 4 year rotation. That’s my understanding when they announced the proposed 17th game. I think it still has to be ratified by the owners and PA, but I believe that’s a formality.

Scott, not getting in an argument bud as I like you’re arguments. Just Sal and the guys made a good point. There was not one game where we had Dawkins, Ford, Morse, Feliciano, and Williams. What happens there. I think that is a solid point. Injuries happen and maybe we have to sub in Boettger or Bates who showed promise. No doubt we need to be better so I agree with you. We just haven’t seen what that looks like and we have a limited amt of $, and more needs. I hope that’s ok as I agree we were good at pass pro but seriously deficient at run blocking. We just never saw a complete A team. If they suck, we’ll find out amd fast.

You heard that too. 🤪😜

As much as I thought him and Jonnu could help, so be it. Moving on.

Did we go 6-10, or 13-3 and get to the championship game? Winners know how to keep winning.

HD, thanks as so much easier than a new thread for every guy this week. Always knew I liked you even when I didn’t. 🤪

I wanted him but not at this price. Good luck Jonnu. Not even close to worth $12 + mil.

Not surprised. Isiah welcome to the family as you’re getting extended. He won’t cost much.

Coot, thanks. I’ll check this out tonight. I like these kinds of articles using All22.

Exactly, they reworked the line throughout the year with Winters, Long briefly, Ford towards the beginning and so on. 2021 you can assume Dawkins, Ford or Boettger, Morse, Mongo, and Williams. Sal keeps talking about Bates was a popular development guy from the coaches so we’ll see what happens. I didn’t expect both Feliciano to resign with us, and for him to accept $5.5 mil.

I’m no on Carson. If we had the $ Jonnu Smith, not Henry. Similar talent, younger and more durable.

At first I thought this was a bad joke, buts pure saints once again kicking the can down the road. Winston will probably start. Now that his eyes are fixed, maybe he makes better decisions. I doubt it, but just one more reasons the Bucs aregoing to own the south if they can find the $ for Barrett.

With night games I sometimes watch the first half and dvr the second. I’m up between 4:30-5 am each work day so keep rhythm I’ll get up at 4 am and watch the second half I’m the am. It’s why I turn off the phone and won’t look at tbd until after I watch it. As far as terrible moments, I’ve never been so angry when McKelvin fumbled when we had the lead on the Pats. Uggh!!! Did I mention my freakin brother told me before I saw it. I wasn’t sure who I was more angry at after the play.

Exactly, they reworked the line throughout the year with Winters, Long briefly, Ford towards the beginning and so on. 2021 you can assume Dawkins, Ford or Boettger, Morse, Mongo, and Williams. Sal keeps talking about Bates was a popular development guy from the coaches so we’ll see what happens. I didn’t expect both Feliciano to resign with us, and for him to accept $5.65 mil./yr.. He and his agent must have realized the market, and realized its best to just sit tight here. There is no reason to overreact that our line will not perform. They were one of the better pass pro lines in football. Barring injuries and the return of Ford at LG, things could be better this year. We blocked well in 2019 in the run. My guess is the line shuffling and the scheme are more if the problem vs. the players. When Feliciano returned, the line looked better. Beane is proving to our players, if you play well consistently, you’ll receive fair contracts. People freaked out about Diggs and then he turns out to be the best WR in the league and even with his restructure, was a heck of a lot cheaper than Hopkins and others. Some people went nuts when Tre received his contract, and then Ramsey fleeced LA. This is why Beane won the executive of the year. It probably changes our strategy moving forward. My guess is we may either release or get one or two more pay cuts (guessing maybe Hughes) or restructure one or two (Dawkins, Diggs, Tre). I’m still holding onto the fantasy we get Jonnu Smith as we are way out of the edge rusher market. No one really knows what will happen in the draft until free agency opens up and see what Beane does with whatever he has left. This should be a fun two weeks, and then we can obsess on the draft.

I hate to do the social vs. just football thIng, but you fixed it for today. I know enough alcoholics to know they only say I’m sober today. I love that about those guys as they admit I have/had a problem, and I can promise today is ok.

This screams of what I have been diametrically opposed that the Texans would be idiots to trade Watson. So I guess I’m wrong, and ok. Not first and certainly not the last. It’s such a sign the Texans are in full rebuild. Shaq was nice here, but it was a smart call for him for his family. These guys at their core want the $, so they set up their future. I never fault a guy for that call as it’s not about sports, winning, it’s about their value so they have 30 years just figuring out their real career post football. Shaq, hopefully you can prove yourself on a bad team, and maybe there is another move in the future.

If you want 1-2 guys, you keep getting pay cuts, or restructures, then it’s Jonnu, and Ngakoue. Draft Etiene with the first. Fill the G with the second as I’m guessing Mongo is gone. The rest is just BPA, and enjoy. With Star back, Oliver and Edmunds immediately gets better. Dane Jackson has a breakout year. Whoo, whoo, Go Bills!

And then there is Val Kilmer. Ugghh. Now Tombstone, “We’ll Johnny Ringo, looks like somebody walked all over you’re grave”. “I’m you’re Hunkleberry”. “ I was kiddin”. “I wasn’t”. Top 10 men’s movie.

Congrats JMF. 32 years is quite the accomplishment. Sincerely. Dan (MGK)

I’ve tried to listen on radio.com through my phone and my iPad, and it is blacked out for the NFL. It’s an NFL rule I believe, but all of the games are played on one of the Sirius stations. It’s annoying though if you are at a sports bar, the delay drives you nuts, so to me it’s not worth it. I don’t mind when I’m in the car as I don’t know what already happened 8-10 seconds ago. It’s a good question though and someone usually asks Howard and Jeremy at least once a year during the season. The cool thing is if you have Sirius, search from 80’s to the 100’s and you’ll find the radio broadcast from the Bills side, and from the opponents side. It is interesting to hear the opposites team’s position on plays vs. Murph, Steve, and Sal.

WG, I know the steps. I was trained to be a Licensed Psychotherapist and practiced for five years and treated patients with addictions among other things before going into business. I’ve attended professionally to gain some understanding and interviewed many reformed alcoholics to better understand the influence had over them. As to the lambo and the outing of himself, I’ve known many alcoholics who were very comfortable sharing with acquaintances. What they told me is it is a very personal decision to be vocal or not about their addiction. I asked one guy was there ever a concern you’re employer would hold it against you, and he said that is one risk for some, especially if they drive fir work like a salesperson. I honestly don’t know if he went from social to heavy drinking to alcoholism. It is a progressive disease. I’m just happy he acknowledged and is working to remain sober so in that position, good for him. WG, I know you’re trying to be helpful so thank you.
