This management team is too smart to give Khalil Shakir the Josh Reed treatment.

There are few members on TSW who supported Diggs last season more than I. But even I can say that the doom and gloom over his trade is over-blown. Diggs was never a dominant, "take over the game" type of receiver. He was a great route runner who, seemingly, gave up on his team the second half of the season and produced very little during that span. He took himself out of the games, and was rarely double covered. He was good at what he did, but his production isn't impossible to reproduce with other players. And rookie receivers don't take 3 years to develop like they have in the past. They can make an impact right away. And don't give me the echo chamber stuff about McD not playing rookies. He has since he got here. Especially first rounders.

I didn't like Burks going into the draft. I like him even less now.

To be fair, with his user name choice, he let us know what to expect from God contributions.

I'd prefer an x receiver. But ultimately, this team needs playmakers. Guys that will step up in big moments to make a play. I'd take this guy over receiver 6.

Few weeks ago, we literally had no one besides Oliver at DT. This signing makes sense.

Side note. I ran into Clowney a couple of weeks ago in Cancun. I also met some Bills fans there. The mafia is everywhere!

I'd be willing to trade up with the Chargers (or in front of them) for Mitchell.

It's my understanding that he is Would's more confident brother.

Before his 2nd season ending injury, they were experimenting with Doyle at guard. So there's that.

Bass regressed last year. Haack, I suspect, is here to coach Martin how to hold for field goals.

It's never going to be "Toohill Time."

Coming out of college, I liked Rondale Moore more than Elijah Moore. Thought he'd be a good YAC guy for a creative OC.

For every Julio Jones, there's a Sammy Watkins. The Bills have a lot of picks, and a lot of holes they need to fill with cheap contracts.

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.
