Depends if the Bills can re-sign Shaq , will they have to go big after a FA or 1st rd DE. Hoping they keep Shaq at a fair price.

Texans — particularly in places like Harris county — waited in exceedingly long lines for five-plus hours for a chance to cast their vote in the race, which accounted for the second-most delegates of all the Super Tuesday states. https://www.businessinsider.com/2020-texas-democratic-primary-turnout-exceeds-2016-vote-totals-2020-3 That's one way for a State to suppress voters choice , where I live there is no line

Looks like Bloomberg is done , down to Biden and Sanders. If Bloomberg backs Biden would be like Hillary versus Sanders .

Bills traded up for Sammy in a WR deep draft , still a bad idea.

He's under contract for the 2020 season , he will get a fair offer if he has a good year. I only want players who want to be here or trade them .

Except Cooper thinks playing in Buffalo and it’s late-season frigid temperatures isn’t for him. “I don’t think it’s all about money,” Cooper told The Athletic’s Tim Graham last month from the Pro Bowl. “Most players in the NFL, and if you’re a highly touted free agent, you’re going to get paid a lot of money no matter where you go. So is it worth it to go somewhere you don’t want to go?” https://www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bills/2020/02/can-buffalo-bills-recruit-free-agent-receiver-amari-cooper.html I would pass on him too soft for here

spotrac has his fair market value at $7.7M a year https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/shaq-lawson-18967/market-value/

Expecting a fed rate cut

All depends on the economy in Nov

To me it looks like a 3 person race , Sanders, Biden and Bloomberg . I would guess a brokered convention

Bernie is way too radical to beat Trump. I'm starting to think Biden could be a figurehead with a viable VP and promise to listen to expert advisers and read from a script ,no off the cuff. I still think Trump will win but depends on the economy.

The president’s son, Donald Trump, Jr., offered the most pointed encapsulation of this view on Friday, when he told Fox News that Democrats “seemingly hope that it comes here, and kills millions of people so that they could end Donald Trump’s streak of winning.” Here’s Trump at his rally tonight in South Carolina dismissing worries about the coronavirus as the “new hoax” https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2020/3/1/21160339/coronavirus-trump-pence-democrats-hoax Pence says Trump Jr. 'justified' to claim Democrats hope coronavirus 'kills millions' https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2020/03/01/mike-pence-defends-trump-jr-rush-limbaugh-coronavirus-comments/4923560002/ If true or out of context that would be just insane to say.

Indeed, Tony Eason was a wide receiver at Notre Dame. Of course, he's better known these days for his role as the father of Jacob Eason, Georgia's starting quarterback. But there was a time, a decade or three ago, that Tony Eason was the highly-touted athlete from the Great Northwest. (not the NE* QB) https://www.dawgnation.com/football/notre-dame-experience-prepared-tony-eason-sons-recruitment

Draft analysts and scouts must now wait until March 12 -- the date of Clemson's Pro Day to evaluate Higgins further. Tee Higgins*, WR, Clemson from walterfootball Height: 6-4. Weight: 200. Projected 40 Time: 4.55. Projected Round (2020): 1-2. Higgins runs well enough to get late first-round consideration and should go in the second round if he isn't a first-round pick. Clemson has a lot of receivers to split up targets, so that could reduce the stat line he records in 2019.

Michigan left tackle Jon Runyan, who provides deeply technical insights into his opponents, said Epenesa was tied with Ohio State's Chase Young as the two toughest defenders he ever faced. "A.J. exploits the weakness of what I play," Runyan said. "I'm a vertical setter, and the weakness of a vertical set is what A.J. loves to do: bull rush with a one-armed stab. He's able to catch me leaning a lot, catch me off guard. Early in the [2019 Michigan vs. Iowa] game, the first three or four drives, I wasn't really keying on his shoulders. He started running downhill, and I wasn't able to get my hips down and react to the bull rush." Epenesa's workout results Saturday night, including a 5.04-second 40-yard dash with a 1.78-second 10-yard split (the split measures initial quickness, making it important for linemen) were not disastrous, but they were worrisome. Those are defensive tackle results, not elite edge-rusher results. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2878147-nfl-scouting-combine-notebook-did-aj-epenesa-crater-his-draft-stock?utm_source=cnn.com&utm_campaign=editorial&utm_medium=referral#slide1

Not sure if this is it What happens if an NHL team exceeds the salary cap? If a player meets a performance bonus that pushes a team over the cap for the season, it's still technically part of the previous year's contract, and therefore hits the prior-year cap after the season is over. That's handled as a fine against next year's cap. What happens when an NHL team goes over the salary cap? - Quora www.quora.com › What-happens-when-an-NHL-team-goes-over-the-sal..

Brady’s agent reportedly is meeting with the Colts, Chargers and Raiders at the combine — and not with the Giants — while negotiations with the Patriots are on hold until salary cap parameters are known after the new collective bargaining agreement is voted on. Patriots could turn Jacob Eason into Tom Brady 2.0 https://nypost.com/2020/02/29/patriots-could-turn-jacob-eason-into-tom-brady-2-0/ Might be leverage to get a bigger contract from NE*, although two indoor stadiums and a new one in good weather would be tempting.

Turkey to allow Syrian refugees free access to Europe after troop attack Turkey said Friday that it ordered troops stationed along the Syrian border to stand down and allow refugees to cross into the European Union after a Syrian government airstrike killed 33 Turkish troops in what was seen as a major escalation in the conflict, a report said. A report said that hundreds of refugees could be seen flocking to the Greece and Bulgaria borders. "We have decided, effective immediately, not to stop Syrian refugees from reaching Europe by land or sea," an official told Reuters. "All refugees, including Syrians, are now welcome to cross into the European Union." https://www.foxnews.com/world/turkey-to-allow-syrian-refugees-free-access-to-europe-after-troop-attack

Looks like coronavirus is the black swan event .

His spotrac market value is $14.3M a year so yes for a critical position.

With 48 active for games can have more dedicated ST players .

For him to heal that fast is amazing. Looks like Miami has their next QB unless a trade up for him happens.

she really screwed NYC out of thousands of good jobs

Coronavirus and SARS are cousins and both are app 0.1 micron in size, which sharply reduces the reliability of face masks for protection For instance, if an infected sufferer sneezes and then touches a table or chair, the virus may survive there for another nine days at least and remain infectious. The virus is believed to spread also through the pipelines of residential apartment buildings without human-to-human contact. The first known case in Wuhan, China, is thought to have started in one such building and infected all its dwellers, including an elderly woman who lived alone and never left home. The entire building was evacuated. Incubation appears to be possible for up to 27 days. Carriers may transmit infection without becoming ill themselves. Some, who are more contagious than others, are known as “super-carriers,” like the first victim in Wuhan and Steve Welsh in the UK. https://www.debka.com/coronavirus-not-yet-potential-plague-face-masks-reliability-dubious-likely-restrictions-on-global-travel/

Needs a quick release like Brady with short patterns if facing too much pressure. That's why a extra OT or G at the TE position or at FB to give Allen more protection.
