If I was the owners and this was presented that we the players want to get rid of cap rollover. ok fine we will do that if you concede to give up mandatory spending limit.

nope didn’t take it from you that way either. All good. I just have been told when in debates I can come off as dickish and belittling and berating. it is a good debate and didn’t want to come off that way. I really do see your point and like I said if it was an NFC team I likely wouldn’t be as concerned about it. But being from direct competition I feel there is ZERO reason to help them or make it easy. And I want my teams leadership to think that way. They were one game away from the SB I want my teams leadership to see that and say YEAH we are not helping them. But won’t completely shut it down if they pony up a pick they can talk to him.

That’s what he needs to get. I know many scouts are saying 4.5 is probably what he will run and needs to run. Anything slower and watch the tumble. I see a 4.5 out of him and that is ok as long as the 10 yard split, 3 Cone and Shuttle times are good. If they are not he is going to fall. I don’t want another WR that can’t get open and separate

Ok block the interview give him a 100k bump for feelings. Not a promotion according to NFL.

He is a long strider doesn’t have that other gear. Likely a 4.5 guy (needs that time). I worry about his 3-cone and shuttle times and 10 yard split that will show me how long he needs to get up to speed and if separating is going to be an issue

then they can go to College. The fact remains their is 32 NFL (pinnacle of coaching) Organizations. they are assets. Just like the players. Just like the FO. Just like the trainers. The team Doesn’t owe them anything other than the contract they signed. - However how does that statement mean if I block Butler I wouldn’t give him a pay bump or some arbitrary meaningless title? now how many blocked coaches walked out on their contract and went to college. And did McCarthys Ravens et all stance stop them from finding quality coaches? NOPE sorry if I am sounding like a dick. Not meaning it. Just have my stance and this is also about competition. They can have the interview I want Picks to make it happen after my deadline

Look how this Draft Fell and tell me what Edge would you rather have over Higgins. Comes down to Value. If the Value at that spot is WR you really advocating over drafting an Edge?

ask Baker. He might say put it on the field that I just hand mowed ?

Agree and the UFA as well. Because the reality is we have 2 NFL quality WRs out of 6. same with TEs we MIGHT have 1 legit one out of 4 and RB ooo well can always find RB

Not enough imo. While the long speed I won’t really be watching with concern. The 10 yard split and 3 Cone and Shuttle are the most important numbers for him. he has to show enough quickness to have teams project ability to separate out of breaks.

very smart marketing for their new Vegas Football Team. just think we build our new stadium we have have ours at the bottom of the Falls.

I am with you I want Bills to get Three WRs this offseason. One in UFA and 2 in draft. However I could be convinced only to double dip the draft and pass on the UFA

and he will tumble as well. I don’t care about the 40 with him as much. He isn’t a speed guy so means nothing to me. Will watch his 10 yard split though want to see how long it takes to gear up. I will watch those Shuttle and 3 Cone times though. I don’t want another James Hardy a big guy that has to make a living making contested catches because he can generate zero separation out of cuts. he screams possession WR to me because doesn’t have the long speed IMO. But that is fine as long as he generates Separation out of cuts.

Ok so show me this DOOMSDAY on ANY team in the NFL that has blocked interviews. Until that can be done it means NOTHING.

Tyler Kroft = JAG. easily replaceable and easily forgettable

Lamb and Jeudy should be the first two off board. I like Lamb a bit more than Jeudy. now after those two it becomes a little muddled with Higgins, Ruggs, Shenault.

Higgins is a long strider and takes a bit to get to speed. But he doesn’t need to be 4.5 otherwise I don’t see him in the 1st round. I want to see his 3 cone numbers and short shuttles. Let me see if he can generate Space out of breaks. Otherwise you have a big guy that makes contested catches because he has to make contested catches because he can’t separate out of breaks. And that won’t work in NFL as seen over and over and over again.

Higher caps mean more REAL money into players pockets. So tell me why they would want to reduce a item that allows for increasing the cap every year? Players should go into CBA like this. Ok we understand you like to keep cap space every year for emergencies. we did a running AVg over the life of the CBA. That AVG comes out to 12M in space needed for your in season signings. based on that we want the yearly minimum spending increased to 95% of the cap. these are hypothetical numbers. But they should be focused on the minimum spending NOT the rollover. 88% of 100M is 88M 88% of 150M (rollover) is 132M the Rollover HELPS the players with real Cash IF they can get the spending limit requirement to 1 year not a 3 year rolling AVG. they need to be focused on REAL Cash not all this cap, punishment, drug testing, etc. as people say eye on the bottom line. Their should be eye on the slice of revenue pie and do everything possible to get close or above 50/50

again people will come. There are 32 organizations at this level. Yes I am making it a standard. You have a window for free non blocking. That window is closed. You want to talk to my employee now it will cost you pay the pick you have your interview. teams like RAVENS have historically blocked every year and guess what they still get top end coaches. That argument is a straw man because it never happens. Philly same way. If I am the owner of the Buffalo Bills. Who made the playoffs I am NOT going to make it easy to help the competition. Sorry. And the RULES allow me to make it difficult so I am. you say it causes resentment. I say it shows the coach how much he means to the organization.

it won’t. Teams will ALWAYS leave their 10M or so flexibility into the season. So if that expires that is not ever going to be spent. Allowing it rolled over means more space available to be spent on players while preserving what teams will always preserve going into the season. this isn’t going to change. what the players SHOULD TGT is the 3 year running minimum cap spending. That allows teams to really not pay. They should say nope it is a yearly running you need to spend to 90% of your cap EVERY YEAR.

Shenault is gonna be sub 4.45. I am thinking he breaks into the 4.3

yet they treat the players THE exact way I am saying they are treating the coaches. as I said coaches get blocked every year from every team and NEVER spins into some toxic cycle you are trying to say it will spin into. so again the College All Star Games have started. My Coaches have started their offseason work. All promotions are filled. Any team wants to talk to my contracted coach I am saying NO. Unless it comes with compensation. So Tenn promote from within or look elsewhere to fill your staff that is a figure head for The HC defense anyway. you can come back to me next offseason before the college all star games and I will grant your permission. otherwise these coaches can form a union collective bargain or work to change the rules. Their other option is take One year Deals every year that way they have their control.

Fine. Unionize. Bills and any organization don’t owe them anything but their contract. as a direct competition organization you want to talk to my contracted employee I want compensation. otherwise change the rules. They did for HC and GM. why should the Bills make it easier for a team that made the AFC Championship game to fill their staff. I might feel a little differently if it was an NFC team. But I doubt it. If I am the owner I am blocking this interview (if ever requested) and not thinking twice

agree that is why a talent like Shenault is a better fit than another one skill WR. Not saying Higgins is that. But looking at DJ reasoning sure looks it. because now Entire offense available without having to take Shenault off the field.

coaches have a union. As well. It is very well known BB isn’t part of that union. The NFLCA could easily work to change the rules. so again the rules are the rules. Block the interview it isn’t going to change the attractiveness or draw for future assistants.
