  1. If the poll was conducted only in Buffalo this would be an incorrect assumption. From the article..... In New York City, 57% of voters said they disapproved of the stadium subsidy deal, while only 19% approved, with the rest undecided. Meanwhile, 67% of voters in the Syracuse region oppose the deal, as do 61% in the Albany region and 54% in the Rochester region. Conversely, the Bills’ fan base registered strong support — with 58% of voters expressing support while 31% disapproved.
  2. If he has a RG3 type injury this year he gets nothing but backup money at best after this season. Is it really worth it?
  3. I couldn't care less about their apology or the change in the overtime rule. You go up by three with 13 seconds left you should win the game every time. Having said that, either get rid of the taunting rule or call it consistently. Yeah. It's accurate. On the play, Hill flashed his patented "peace" sign at Bills defenders at about the 16-yard-line before completing the 64-yard touchdown that gave Kansas City a 33-29 lead. A taunting penalty would not have wiped out the score; it would have either been assessed on the point-after attempt or the ensuing kickoff. Same would've happened if Matt Ryan scored a TD there instead of giving himself up.
  4. Kaiir Elam is another possibility. Either could slip to them in the 2nd round.
  5. Yeah yeah yeah.... With the 12th pick, the Vikings select Kyle Hamilton, S, Notre Dame I just read this mock and don’t see his name up there. If he’s still available it’s a no brainer as he’s a unicorn on defense that a creative d-coordinator would love to have given his versatility as his football IQ and playmaking is off the charts. He’s an athletic freak that can excel as a linebacker, box safety, and roaming safety like he did at Notre Dame. The Texans @mannc are on the clock…
  6. Rashawn Slater was outstanding his rookie year. To the hypothetical question, I think Slater would have the most trade value given the longevity and importance of the position. You can't go wrong with him, Parsons, or Chase though.
  7. Given the injuries on offense I thought Josh’s best game was @New England. Plus, I just want to see Diggs throw the f bomb at Pats fans again.
  8. Tackle depth is an underrated need for this team. Pry second right now behind CB. Ty Nsekhe is a free agent. Just saying.
  9. He's been on the team for three years so the Bills have had plenty of time to evaluate him. By matching the offer sheet they obviously like the way he's developed along with his versatility in being able to play every position in the o-line. I don't see this as that much of a risk as some fans on here do.
  10. Perfect amount of seats and the right location. They got two out of three right and that's not bad.
  11. I’ll take Vikings if still available.
  12. I believe you're incorrect here. The Browns can eat a portion of Baker's salary next year in a trade. For example, the Panthers paid 7 million of Bridgewater's 10 million dollar contract last year when they traded him to the Broncos who paid the remaining 3 million. You're right in that if they cut him and he's signed they save about a million dollars in dead cap (they'll pay him 17.7 million of his 18.8 million salary).
  13. Lots of ways this could play out. If two teams are interested (say the Lions and Seahawks) they could create a bidding war and the Browns could get a pick for him. If there's less interest the Browns can package a pick with Mayfield assuming the team he's traded to eats his salary. The Browns can also eat a large chunk of his salary in a trade like you said. The Browns also could wait until a starting QB goes down in training camp on another team and get something for him then. Finally, they could just rip the band aid off and cut him eating his salary for a year.
  14. Both looked bad. You don't joke about another person's autoimmune disease. You don't physically assault someone because of that joke.
  15. Thanks. Tasteless joke. Both looked bad in that situation.
  16. That might help get the ratings back up. What was the joke that set him off?
  17. The debate for 2nd place starts after this...
  18. That's not the point. Newton missed only two games in his first four years of football (both in 2014). One due to a sack in a preseason game and one later in the year after a car accident. The point is that Newton was once viewed as close to invincible because he didn't miss hardly any games at the start of his career despite his playing style (which is very similar to Allen's). Newton's career resembled that of a hard running RB who peaked early and was worn down by the time he hit 30. It's a cautionary tale that Beane and McDermott witnessed first hand.
  19. As Bruce Arians said, "He's more like Cam Newton, but with a bigger and stronger arm.” I really don't want any more designed runs for Allen because he's more than capable of picking a defense apart with his arm. Newton wasn't.
  20. It was a mixed bag. I remember the younger analytics crowd hated him. The more recognizable/seasoned "experts" (McShay, Kiper, Mayock) had him ranked as their second best QB prospect after Darnold. Allen was definitely one of the most polarizing prospects ever.
  21. People have a warped view of him because he didn't dive for that fumble in the Super Bowl. He never played soft. The narrative after his MVP season is he's just built differently and can take all that punishment. He should definitely be a cautionary tale for the Bills.
  22. He definitely set the blueprint for how to get a 7 million dollar yearly raise and about 130 million more in guaranteed money.
  23. Newton missed two games the first four years of his career with the same playing style. Josh missed three I believe his rookie year. It's unsustainable.
