Good luck with that. It's not coming from this regime or me if I'm in charge. The guy was making 2M and is a good, scheme specific player, with durability issues. I'm not giving him 8-9 million year. I could see 5 at most no more. Draft a cheaper replacement if that's the market.

I think there is enough available with cutting Taylor, perhaps a couple others (Glenn, Hughes), an/or restructuring some guys. With an increase in salary cap we could still sign Cousins for about 25M, and Lotulelei 8-9, Gaines 3-4, and still be have room for low level and draft choices.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but there also could be an increase in the salary cap.

Both?

Harrison Phillips is a no-brainer. If he's available at your spot you take him. Would totally fix the run game defense.

well at least you have a shot at one

Inside sources tell me that the Browns will take either Darnold or Rosen with the first pick. Not even they can !@#$ this up.....oh wait a minute! Yes they can

I'd take Baker Mayfield in a heart beat if we could get our hands on him. He's a stylistic cross between Drew Brees and Russell Wilson IMHO.

Never like to hear this kind of thing. I hope moving forward that he and his family are fine!

The game that always sticks in mind is the game against Miami in 1995 season playoffs. I will admit I had a little tear in my eye after that game. Made you proud to be a Bills fan. It felt like one last attempt at the prize. That team was not nearly as talented as some of the earlier ones because the players had aged- it was a different kind of team. Such a smart, savvy, tough, experienced team that knew how to win. The game itself was crazy, both teams put up over 500 yards. Marino threw like 65x for well over 400 yards, The Bills rushed for nearly 350 yards on over 50 attempts. One memory that sticks out is the Bills running little short reverses several times to Tasker and Billy Brooks that were effective. My favorite Thurman had 158 yards, he was supported by Darick Holmes and Tim Tindale combining for 155 yards. Damn great memories. I want more!

The Bills were fortunate to win, the defense won the game with a Carlton Bailey fumble return to start second half. We couldn't move the ball, Wade Phillips was the DC for Denver. This in and of itself was amazing with the offense we had that year. Great coach. You bet they're are just around the corner if some of the right moves ( ones you recommended), are made this offseason.

If it interesting how little interest some people have on this board about that era. I guess 25-30 years ago is the dark ages now. Then again, maybe they are just jealous if they missed that time.

Disagree with what? Who said there was no place for analytics?

They just watch the tape and record relevant data, like the stuff you were talking about, analyze and present the findings to the coaches. The important part is what data you decide is important and how it is used.

The tape doesn't lie

Wow did he really say Drew Brews and Nate Peterman in the same sentence!

Yeah, Will Wohlford left in FA to the Colts and John Fina took over and wasn't as good. I think Glenn Parker took over at guard at some point too.

In the years 1988-93 the Bills played 112 games, this amounts to a whole extra season (7 years total).This has to be a record! Anybody? It is no wonder that Jim, Thurman, Andre and Bruce amongst others were spent by the 94 season. Just think of all the pounding Thurman took during those cold January playoff games. I remember the Denver playoff game in 1992 that was a 10-7 win, but just a brutal physical game. Our only TD was a defensive score. The Broncos safeties Dennis Smith and Steve Atwater were vicious hitters who brought the lumber every chance they got. Thurman was very banged from the game. Truly remarkable to think of how much those guys sacrificed during their time. I just wanted to share a point that is lost in all the year. We were very lucky as fans during that period!

Look we made the playoffs and ended the drought. Psychologically this is great for the franchise and its fans. It made no sense to get rid of guys who were contributing at the time in hopes of maybe getting a low pick. The plan will be different going forward.

I would probably be a lot of peoples favorite poster, but I don't have time to post much...because I'm in high level business meetings a lot!

I think he'd drop 5 rounds...oh wait! UDFA

He just jumped ahead of Darnold and Rosen!

Are you Dunkirk/Chadwicks son? This isn't insider info, this stuff makes no sense. No interest in guys they're interviewing? Kyle is done and proved it....no interest? Untapped potential? Time for another extremely high level meeting with my shop manager!

D. Jeremiah compared him to Kyle Williams in his top 50.
