The tickets are $4850 on top of that in the new stadium. I think they’re like $2500-$3000k now. I have 2 and my brother has 2. Right now, I paid the down payment for 2 and pay on my current 2. As of June, I’ll pay $700something a month until 12/1/26 for the license fee.

It feels like a small win. I was thinking that it was going to be $20k per but holding out worked. They called immediately. We moved to the next section over. We saved $10k in license fees and like $1k in tickets annually. My brother did too because we are together. Someone had asked on the payment structure too. It is 20% today and then the rest is divided evenly until December 1, 2026 (interest free).

Just released some East Club seats with $15k PSL. I’m locked in

I just think that getting one of those top 3 is worth the investment. I believe MHJ is a top 10 NFL WR right now. If I can get that on a rookie deal, sign me up!! I’ll allocate the rest of my cap savings to pass rush and whatever else we need. The flexibility of a top end number 1 on a rookie deal is too much for me to pass on.

I guess that I’m less concerned with S. They can get by with what they have now and draft one in the 4th. They would have Edwards, Rapp, Cam and a pick. My goal though is to sign Justin Simmons post June 1. Either way though, S isn’t a spot to use prime assets on. It’s not an expensive position. There is a gap between Thomas and the top 3 IMO (although I like him). WR is infinitely more important than their other needs. You address that to the best of your ability before you worry about anything else. I’m not saying, “skip Odunze because you might get a lesser safety.” I just don’t care. Needs to me look like: WR1 WR2 everything else

I don’t see any questions or periods of adjustment with the big 3. That’s a big reason why I want the move up. This holds especially true for MHJ. He’s 1200 yards & 8+ TDs as a rookie. WR translates pretty easily. Any of the 3 is WR1 in the first day and a difference maker. The only concern for me on a big trade up is that it still leaves a hole at WR2. There are still some FAs and guys that will be around in round 4. I don’t think that they have another pure boundary WR on the roster (unless Shorter comes out of nowhere). If they’re using their 2nd as part of the package to go up you’re going to be thin on the boundary. I guess that if they go up into the top 10, my hope is that they can preserve 60 in this draft. Maybe the package is something like 28, 128, ‘25 1st & ‘25 Vikings 2nd. They could then use 60 to get a guy like Pearsall. Now, you’re in a good spot at WR and a GREAT spot financially at the position.

This ^^ If you want to go back, you need to be careful. This mock is not ideal for the Bills.

I believe that you are correct. Basically, people that currently sit lower level, at midfield, have the opportunity to go into the field club. That’s the pricing there. It includes food and non-alcoholic beverages but the seats aren’t covered or heated. You also can’t see the game from the club.

Maybe, but they could make the point that the tampering wasn’t just a violation of the rules but damaging to the Vikings. It’s like a civil case as opposed to a criminal case. I’m not sure anything happens but interesting nonetheless.

After drafting Franklin here, I’d call the Vikings and offer them the next 2 picks plus our 2025 first for Jefferson. Make them say no. If they say no, call SF & Cincy and offer the next pick + Bills 2025 2nd for Ayiuk and Higgins.

I’d be okay with that because I don’t see massive risk with Worthy. I know he’s small but he is a quality WR. It isn’t just a little fast guy.

Franklin

Ladd & Baker or Legette and Pearsall are both great outcomes to me. I like Polk too. Burton & Walker have a couple too many questions but would jump at either in the 4th. There are lots of options. I have gone back and forth on the best way to do this. It’s changed since the Diggs trade too. For me, getting one of the top 3 is option 1. You’re getting a number 1, with limited questions, on a rookie deal. Yes, you’ll spend draft capital but tell me a better use for it than getting Josh a number 1 on a rookie deal? Yes, the Bills need pass rushers too but can throw cap space at it next year and/or whatever draft capital is left. My second choice is 2 in the top 60 with complementary skill sets. They have to have a guy that can contribute now and can gamble on a high ceiling guy.

I think that I agree here. With the Bills resetting the cap next year though, it could make sense. It could be both as well. If the Bills make the deal referenced above (for example) they can still take a guy at 28 because they have a starting spot available. If you added Ayiuk (for example) you can take a higher upside guy with some question marks at 28 (Mitchell, Legette or gasp, Coleman). I’m not advocating for it but could certainly get behind it. Ladd and Legette would be really nice IMO.

I don’t disagree. I’ve been on team, “trade way up for top 3” for a little while. I want a second guy as well (and maybe a 3rd). If the Bills do plan on waiting until 28 (which I don’t believe) then I think you have to get 2 guys before 60. The need for them to get roughly 200 targets from guys not yet on the roster, keeps bumping McConkey up to me. He can handle 100 targets tomorrow with his skill set, route running and SEC experience. You can then turn around and try to come up for Legette (my choice). I don’t think that the Bills can count on a raw toolsy prospect as their top pick without pairing that with a more dependable skill set to complement him.

I think that option 5 is the veteran route. MAYBE you can trade 1 of your 4ths & the Vikings 2025 2nd for Aiyuk (for example)? Regardless of everyone’s preference it feels like WR1 is inevitable.

That’s my thought. It could certainly shake things up though. It raises the cost for Denver or Raiders to go up.

Have you seen this story? I know Florio can be an idiot but it’s interesting. This could shake things up in the draft.

Good by me. Tush push specialist

I’m not a Nix fan. Neither he nor McCarthy is very good imo. In real life I wouldn’t take either of them before day 3. I was banking on Penix making it to 23. I feel that the Vikings are backed into a corner and had to draft a QB. This was my EJ Manuel selection. Glad that you like him and hope that you’re right. That’ll make me feel like less of a moron for drafting a guy that I have no interest in 😂😂.

I think his ceiling is high. I think that his floor is too low for where he will be picked. I’ve said it before but he gives me George Pickens vibes in terms of effort. If I could get McConkey and Mitchell, sure. If the Bills go Mitchell they are going to HAVE to have someone that can handle a lot of targets immediately. You can’t have 2 low floor guys when you have 200ish targets available.

I voted Legette. McConkey and Worthy were also to be considered. A trade back getting 2 would be ideal.

With the 23rd pick in the 2024 draft, the Minnesota Vikings select Bo Nix, QB, Oregon The Vikings got their QB. Nix is athletic, accurate, and experienced. He was a top recruit that started at his hometown team. He took some lumps but really matured when he got to Eugene. He has some qualities similar to Brock Purdy in his ability to get the ball into his playmakers hands. We feel the value is here at 23 and have a guy that can start year one. @LEBills and the Dallas Cowboys are on the clock.
