I liked Hodgins early on when I thought Josh needed a wide catch radius guy with great hands. Now, I want Josh to have playmakers.

I think it's absolutely nuts that the comp pick formula is a secret. We're just supposed to trust that they are awarding the picks fairly and honestly.

Just needs to stay healthy. He was playing at all-pro levels before his injury last season. The season before, I thought he was our defensive MVP.

It all depends how much of his base salary they agree to turn into a bonus. They could have agreed on a different amount. So it could've been up to 23 mil. Also could have been less than 16 mil. I hope that makes sense.

Actually, I'd have to say Shakir. I don't think he's "broken out" yet. I like the way he finished this last season on an upward trajectory.

Let's see how our new DC and db coaches see him. He's an athletic, studious young man who has shown big moment ability. I'm looking forward to seeing how he develops.

I like Rousseau. Elite run defender as a DE. Okay as a pass rusher. The tricky part is the money. The 5th year option means a sizeable bump in pay, which then creates an expectation for the next contract. If my understanding is correct, the 5th year option for Groot would put him at the average of the 3 - 25 highest paid DEs in the league. Is he worth that much?

If only we could cut or trade some of the fans who post on TSW. I'm all for discussing difficult, team-building decisions in a logical, thoughtful, respectful way. This thread is not that.

I read it as, "So Spencer Brown would say, 'you?'"

Mahomes is a really good quarterback. No doubts there. But I'm kind of tired of the undeserved ball washing like he's the reason for their win on Sunday. People talking about him like he's the chosen one. But I can't remember the last time he made a play or throw that made me say, "wow, only two or three qbs in the NFL could've done that. He plays efficiently. He's accurate. But Reid could've won that superbowl with 10 other QBs behind center. Mahomes was throwing to wide open receivers. Or maybe I'm just a bit of a hater. But Josh Allen is the more impressive QB in my opinion.

I think the defense we had at the beginning of the season was certainly superbowl caliber. But they are aging and were just beat up at the end of the season.

I mean, how often does Mahomes throw to a wide open receiver? Reid is amazing at what he does.

I was told that he was only getting interviews because of the Rooney Rule. No way he's actually respected around the league for being a good coach.

But maybe he's hard-nosed and blunt.

Apparently, Daboll is the one with a long history of being a difficult person to coach with. https://giantswire.usatoday.com/2024/01/27/volatility-issues-cost-brian-daboll-coaching-jobs-prior-new-york-giants-hire/

I hope he can make the jump from position coach to calling the plays. The young man has earned the promotion (and at least 30% of Dodson's next contract). Now let's see if he can avoid the mistakes of McDermott's 4 minute defense.

Pats would have to add a 6th rounder to sweeten that deal.

I don't know you. I've never met you. But don't leave this page. You have family here.

I don't know. Sounds like his feelings are pretty hurt to me.

This take is based on a lot of illogical speculation, and it needs to die. There's been no evidence that McDermott is this kind of micromanager. Moreover, it makes no sense. His job security, and millions of dollars, is not based on him hiring a puppet. It's based on him finding the people that will bring wins to Buffalo. I guarantee you, winning and money are more important to McD than his ego.

The fact that they're even interviewing means McDermott is likely giving up the DC gig.

Nothing personal. I'm happy for him. But I wanted him and Dorsey to be replaced last offseason.

Always loved the move when he would sprint 10 yards down the field, then, with the grace and agility of a row boat, would turn around to start rushing the QB.

Winning the superbowl increases the fan base...leading to big surge in merchandise sales... increasing the team owners' profits.

Thinking of telling my wife, "I'm still married to you... but I'm going to start looking at other options. If I don't find any, then I guess I'll stay married to you a little longer." It's going to work out great. I'm sure she'll understand and be cool with it. So will my daughter.
