I would be so interested to see this love child 😭

Big fan of Beane. Yes he’s made many calcuable errors but he is a top executive in the league and should be here for a long run.

I appreciate all the work you put into this. I still am a bit unsure that this approach is the right way to go. I understand the Chiefs WR room but I do believe they are the exception, not the rule. Looking around the league, if your approach is the case, why are pass catchers making increasingly more and more money? Sure, the increase in cap makes a ton of impact, but guys like Chase and Jefferson are going to shatter the ceiling. Mike Evans and Michael Pittman are being paid big money. Even teams with more cap space such as the Jags are paying through the nose for guys (Kirk/Davis). Why not simply draft players with day 2 picks and spend the money elsewhere? Production is obviously important. However I feel that when that production happens is even more crucial. I think a lot of the guys names above have shown that they can win when it matters, and for a team trying to win the SB, they can’t wait around for a rookie to hopefully be that for them.

Genuinely asking: Is the packers passing game something we should strive to be like? These are good players taken with decent selections and they’re getting good production but does that result in wins? My concern here is, just acquiring guys who catch the football and are trustworthy only get you so far when teams line up and make you beat them. I want guys who can win 1v1 when I need them too. Especially with the increase in man coverage the bills saw in 2023, having solid players may not be enough. 793 674 581 422 355 352 Those are the yardage totals from the players you mentioned in the tweet. Not good enough IMO

The excitement of trading Diggs gave me the initial reaction that I wanted to sell the farm and go for one of the big three…but: Now that the dust has settled, I think the best course of action is to stand pat at #28…and potentially move up 2-5 spots using a 4th if need be to draft “our guy” That’ll leave us with Rookie Samuel Shakir Shorter Hollins Sign a guy like Renfrow or Boyd as insurance This boils down to casting a wide net instead of putting all your eggs in one basket. If #28 doesn’t get it done this year, then we have next years first (which could be better than #28) and two 2nds to try again to find WR1. In the mean time, Samuel/Kincaid/Cook will carry the loan if the tookie can’t hack it

2018 - Previously detailed above 1st round trades 2019 - Ford #40 to #38 (cost a 5th rounder) 2022 - Elam #25 to #23 (cost a 4th rounder) 2022 - Kincaid #27 to #25 (cost a 4th rounder) So with the exception of the 2018 big swings (if you want to call it that), their 1st round movement has been minor. Based on this history, we’re more likely to see them go from #28 to #25ish….but those teams in that range don’t seem to really be necessary to jump. Is the Diggs trade posturing in the event someone moves ahead of us, we can then jump them, or with Beane really swing for the fences for the first time?

Crazy to think about now in today’s day and age: Allen Pick: sent #12, and two 2nds, for pick #7 Edmunds: sent #22 an early 3rd and 6th, for #16

They only moved from 22 to 16 to get up for Edmunds. It wasn’t all that much of an investment but I do agree with your sentiment.

Best of luck, Diggs! Lot of haters out there but I thoroughly enjoyed watching him the bulk of his time here. Not trying to absolve Diggs of any wrong doing but I do believe he catches more flack than he deserved in the diva department. At the end of the day, we all saw the writing on the wall. We knew this was coming, just not so soon. I’ll always appreciate what he did to get this team to where it is an helping Allen get to where he is today. That said.. My question for the Bills in their quest for a SB over the past two seasons has always been “is there top end talent good enough?” We’ve always known they’re deep and have great players, but to win the big one you need elite players playing at a high level when it matters most. Diggs wasn’t able to provide that, however you chalk it up. Kudos to Beane for recognizing it and making an effort to improve instead of holding his cards and going all in on a poker hand that you know isn’t stacked in your odds. I hope that Steph in HOU will be good for them both, and that the tough choice by Beane and co will pay off in the long run by getting cheaper, younger and potentially more dangerous at WR while Allen is in his prime. Go Bills!

I’m just here to Boo @Roger Goodell Boooooooo

The idea of McConkey is growing on me. Guy is a straight baller. Quick, smooth, reliable. Feel like if we go into #28 looking for WR1 we are going to be disappointed. Take the best player regardless of if we feel he can play outside, etc. Not interested in ppl saying “we have Shakir” as if these guys are not versatile. The NfL is changing. I am not sold we need an alpha at WR just a play maker. Diggs McConkey Samuel Shakir

Its not about results. All about the process, baby.

What # are we thinking? Fornerly 10 (Shakir) as he entered the league, he returned to 4 (Cook) last season, which is what he wore at Ohio State. Any guesses?

I was actually referring to the cap hits over the next three years. Its a big chunk of change, but he is a good player and the anchor on the OL. Let’s hope his health and level of production stay steady. At almost 30 with another 4 years pretty much invested in him, he’s out guy. I think he’s earned it but was just taken aback a bit by the cap hit distribution. actually on further review it looks like they could get out of it after 2026 relatively cheap. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/dion-dawkins-21805/

Wow this is more than I was expecting

Anything more than this is an over investment.

So based on these numbers, and dependent on the Morrow and Hollins deals, they could in theory still have room for another semi-costly piece and still have room for rooks. The problem is this can’t happen until post June 1 so barring another release or restructure, I am assuming things have shifted towards the draft at OBD. Maybe Mike Williams hangs out until late summer (a la Hopkins last year) and signs a prove-it deal to try and re-establish himself as potential WR1 demonstrating health and ability. Williams - 1 year, 10 million dollars with two void years. Fully guaranteed. Cap Hits as follows: 2024 - 4 mil 2025 - 3 mil 2026 - 3 mil Passing the money down the line gives them the space they need to bring in a key player now, spreading the money into years they are currently a bit more flexible. Additionally, if it were to work out an extension would essentially tear up those void years.

And the other 8 states? They want; a hippopotamus for Christmas? candy? it that a way? to know what love it? to break free?

Appreciate the write up! Beane isn’t done. They’ll like be adding 2-3 more FA level players to compete IMO. 11 picks could definitely end up being 6-7 guys, possibly more. This year could be a “fish with dynamite” draft. And we may count on (semi) house hold names such as Eli Ankou to make the roster (ala Kingsley Jonathan). The reality is they can no longer fill in the back end of the roster with guys via FA at a few mil a pop (i.e. Matekavich, Neal, etc) and will have to settle with youngins off the street or roll with late picks. it’s the way of the world when you pay elite money to your top players.

Well the way FA has gone has me shifted a bit on my early round expectations. With a lot of decent vets no longer available, I am leaning towards hoping to see two early round WRs
