    I think we're going to be very good and once again in contention.  I think anyone expecting some downward turn is foolish.  

    As  a Bills fan for 50+ years,  this is the right outlook.  I lived through the 2-14 years, and it was grim.  The Bills were so bad the other team didn't have to play their regulars and coasted out of Buffalo.  I saw one game when the opposition threw 6 passes, otherwise ran the ball down the Bills throat.  (Griese the father)  Anyhow, my conclusion after those years that if the Bills fielded a team that made the opposition hustle and Bills were competitive, I would be happy.  That is more than the  case now, as the Bills will contend imho.  But, it was not always that way.

    Teams we're competing with for playoff spots all improved more than we did this off-season, so the real X factor is Joe Brady imo.

     

    Will he be a significant upgrade & be able to compensate for other losses? I'm optimistic.

     

    But we can't bank on Burrow, Rodgers, Lawrence, etc getting injured again either. 

    Still not a believer in Lawrence.

    Without my permission the BN just renewed by digital subscription for $150 for 6 months.  I called, ended up with someone in the Philippines.  Didn’t know they dumped the local customer service.  I got my price to where it was previously at $90 for 6 months, and even with that, I may be done after this period ends. 

    I had a kefuffel w them about renewal.  The wanted over $800 for the year of digital.  I just dropped them .   To many issues recent times.  Based on my friends input, I am thinking they may go under, lots of cancellations.

    Is anyone else having trouble logging into your Athletic subscription?  My email/password don't work, and the system does not send me a link to update my password.  I renewed my subscription for a year, last September.  And there doesn't seem to be any way to get help without logging in first.

    Sort of, I had to enter a new password, which I used my  old password, and I am in.  It alleges I now have access to the Athletic and the NY Times.  I don't like paying a nickel to the NYT btw.  I am bundled until I  unbundle I guess.  Of course, I knew the NYT bought the Athletic perhaps a year ago.  I am good w  sports news, but don't like the left ward spin out of the rest of the NYT content.

    I like Knox and have been a fan; however, I also acknowledge that Kincaid is the better player. Knox has a large contract to be a #2 TE. In addition, there are only so many balls to go around. I don't know if Brady is designing some diabolical two TE sets or whatever. Also, I'm aware that Knox and Allen have a good relationship. I just have a suspicion that something like a trade is going to happen. Am I nuts?

    I will buy Kincaid is a better receiver.  Blocking TE, I am not so sure.  I like having both around, and think they have a place.  I do think Knox contract is a little  rich, but, he will be around a while imho.

    This is going to be one of the biggest eating crow trades , draft picks in a long time.

     

    Ppl on here and Twitter were absolutely disrespecting the trade and not picking Worthy like crazy. It was unbelievable how bad ppl were trashing Beane n co

     

    I was personally thrilled we didn't take him. There's years of proof that guys his size and skill set are busts but he ran super fast in shorts so ppl were talking like he's a shoe in to be an elite WR 

    This isn't a good sign at all for KC

    Roscoe Parrish v 2.0 would have been his career.  Miss half the games.

    Have you taken a look at their roster? Hurts, Saquon, AJ Brown, DeVonta Smith, DeVante Parker, Parris Campbell, they drafted Will Shipley, and they still have Kenneth Gainwell. I think they have a big time bounce back year and take that division with ease, especially if Barkley is healthy all season long. He is going to eat in that offensive scheme. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if they ended up in the SB again. 

    You had me until you mentioned DeVante parket

    I think Jones and Spector are battling for the Matekavic role. Special teams but offer something on defense in coverage if needed. 

    Spector can play when healthy.  But, he has been oft injured.  Even play might bring that into consideration.

    Zay had some strong games for the Jags. He turned into a far more reliable receiver than I expected. I am surprised to see them release a guy who was their wr2 or 3 for much of the past 3 seasons.

    Now that they know him, they see he is a head case (still)  We won't be seeing him in Bills uni again.

    This daughter seems new to the organization. Has she always been involved with the Bills? Before seeing her at a recent press conference I had never heard of her. 

     

    Seems like things are going to be messy going forward. 

     

    It's all very sad. 

    She is an executive in the Pegula Oil and Gas business.  Moving over to the Bills apparently based on recent activity.  Including reping the Bills (alone) at the last owners meeting.  The ownership sliver gives her standing to be that rep.  Llikely about 1% imho.

    I don't think he's a hybrid player.  He's a zone CB with good size,  and given his pro day testing,  looks like an athletic freak.  If he doesn't make it at CB,  then you move him to safety,  but I'd give him his first shot at CB. 

    I saw Bean react to a question about this guy.  This guy is definitely in play at 28.  And, we know McD's focus on drafting DB's high.
