Buffalo listened to offers...different than shopping him. Lily asked for a 1st given he is not too old and a starting LT under contract for 3 yrs aftet this one IIRC at s not too crazy cap hit.

6-2 is size compared to most CBS and he has speed. The ideal combo or receiver is having watkins snd benjamin on the same team. I could ser Holmes being cut and demarcation being cut but who would be 3rd??? They can cut players prior to I think it's week 10 then resign them and then get the comp pick.

Buffalo trades watkins and daRby abd 6th for Benjamin, Matthews, a 2nd, and Gaines

Based on my understanding buffalo has to cut 3 free agents they signed yo get a 3rd round comp pick. The formula need to be adjusted to factor in where the player was drafted and how much they signed for. As for this trade it's now basically a 3rd and watkins for a 2nd, benjamin, and Gaines. Just remember Benjamin is a receiver with size, but not speed. WatKINS had both.

In other news the Patriots trade to dallas one of their RBs to dallas for a 2nd. .

If Brady can play 3-4 yrs means Patriots will be using that pick around 33-36 and use it plus other picks/players to trade up to the 30s abd take a QB

I know there are rules if you give a player an injury settlement release from IR there is s time frame on when he can resign. With only 1 IR to activate move this what some teams need yo do. He was in more lime a check on his healing.

In CB coverage there is always some balk l9cation they can't defend without causing a PI. They are not burnt here.

Not scoring on s turnover is a piss poor measure. You need to factor in where it occured and points that might have scored against the team. Mistake was made at the end of the half snd not attempting a FG.

Dareus likely is not traded. He might be traded in the offseason but it might be high cap hit flr high cap hit, if not he is a June 1 buy out. As for Glenn, he would have to be for a very good offer. He isn't a dump. Probably an entry contract player into next year and a 2nd. They could do something similar to the wTkins/Darby trade but instead they trade Glenn for a player and a pick and then trade a 3rd for an OL replacing him.

Bring a 3-4 DE in a 4-3 system isn't an issue as being a 3-4 ILB in a 4-3 system.

It's about teams stockpiling long term prospects. It will create long term imbalance if teams payers may want to play fir can sign and keep players on a roster. Thus is why they have a practice squad so teams can develop players but they can't be protected from another team. It's the same reason why IR rules were changed that say a player is done for the season. Teams would stock project players on the IR until injuries occured then activate them or they will keep them on the IR to develop them.

This was a weird week..... 1. bears block a FG and leon lett it to the 1 and are fortunate to get the ball back and get a FG out of it. In OT RB thought to have run 73 yared for a TD bt found to step out, later they get OT TD for win. 2. Patriots come back to get a TD for the win. 3. Detroit is down to 1 with a 1st and goal, missed 2 tries, then on 3rd down they try to get a TD and think so but rules down befofe breaking the plane with 8 seconds left. By rule a 10 seconf=d run off ends the game. 4. Giants seem to wake up in the 4th quarter to go ahead 21-14 with 21 unanswered. Eagles tie it and then make a long FG to win it on the last play of the game. 5. Browns wer down by 21 late in the 3rd 28-7 come back but fall short 31-28 and they got the ball back to tie at the end of the game. BTW----Buffalo is in first place.....

OP YOUknow Luck didn't play last week. ????

Saw this when it happened...it wasn't pretty. He should be done for the year

Based on pick value charts.... KC would have to make the super bowl for it to break even. I expect them to be a 17-23 place team...a playoff wild card team or a team who just miss the playoffs st 9-7 or 10-6. Any team can beat anyone else on a given day. KC got big plays on offense abd defense made key plays on dedense forcing FGS and stopping on 4th down. It seems the last few years new england defense has been generally poor over the early part of the s4ason before it makes adjustments.

If the Chiefs narch down for a TD I would go for 2 and make the score 36-27

It would be different if it was an inland track hitting sat the nc/SC line and move inland. The track isn't doing that. If it goes much of the length of Florida and goes ashore it will he a borderline TS^hurticane that runs parallel with voadt. Charlotte gets rain but not enough to cause a site cgamge. If this goes into the gulf then more land to weaken it and it's jut a rain event like friday/saturday with harvey. Sure some area will flood but not enough t cause a game to be postponed.

Buffalo would not host the game. The forecast now could have this off the Atlantic coast next werkrnd. Charlotte is too far from the coadt yo have a major impact that would result in game being moved. Miami, jacksonville, Tampa are places that a land falling hurticane could result in games needing to move the following weekend.

This is a tad silly.... Even without a changeover at coach and /or gm how many players from 5 drafts ago are still on the team ??? Also let's not forget to factor in trades of players to other teams for players and future picks vs giving the false impression buffalo drafted all busts.

I'd ask for a 2nd

You can't claim vested veterans cut. Those players are free to decide where they sign lie the DB from denver that there was talk of buffali kicking the tires on a trade who got cut.

It's how football works. They restructure it at something like $6M or so with incentives. We're he a free agent he would not get anything north of $10N from another team. More likely a lower bade with bonus clauses if he becomes the starter.

For a good season you need health. Having Watkins out hurt. Of their 8 loses, only the NE game at home was a l8sd. The others were loses by 8 pts or less or they had 2nd half multiple score lead. They win 3 of those 7 games (one being against mia) and they are 10-5 and likely playoff bound with a win if not clinched already. This 3 games can come down to a play or two made or not executed. Many 9f these buffalo put up points but the defense failed.

It will not happen.... First off in the nfl there isn't the kind of trade value on players you have in other leagues. You won't be trading players gor high firsts. Yes buffalo is up against the cap so there will be some players who are not re-signed and walk away. It's hard to predict how the team will be next year. The issues will be.... 1. Who starts at qb. I don't blame TT. Is he a star qb..no, is he adequate yes. 2. They could draft between 9-15. They could look st QB or the find s CB yo replace Gilmore who is likely let go.they could draft an OT or LB here too. 3. I don't know all their cap structure, dead weight and all....looking to next year... They have Watkins, Shady, and Clay on offense snd much of OL under contract. Woods likely not c9ming back, but secondary WRs could be replaced. On defense they have a strong from 7. Gilmore likely gone so they need to replace him (draft pick) Likely cuts to open up space....Carpenterand Graham.
