Doc Brown

His annual average salary is the same as Trevor Lawrence's. That's a hometown discount.

It's the Eagles and then pry the Lions. Steelers. It's always about the money.

All Allen's injuries last year were on runs. I believe he fractured his left hand jumping into the end zone against the Cardinals. How long until it's his right hand?

Damn. That hurts. Would've given him that contract in a second. You can't surround the highest paid QB in the league with a below average WR core.

In our last five playoff losses (Chiefs and Bengals) we have a total of six sacks for 30 yards. It's a problem.

The same agent who said he was playing on MNF against the Jets probably.

If we were guaranteed three years of Hendrickson in his prime sign me up for giving up two first rounders. He can make as many cryptic tweets as he wants.

He put up more yards than Cook last year and I'm assuming they can get out of it after next season with minimum dead money if he starts to show decline.

Higher but not $5m per year higher imo.

Aaron Jones is older but this would be the ideal contract extension for Cook.

Metcalf was the only player that interested me as usually giving up multiple firsts plus and then paying a top of the market contract to said player has a horrible track record. If we can get Metcalf for a 2nd and a 4th or something like that I have no problem with the Bills paying him $30m plus a year. We need elite players at premium positions on either side of the ball.

Three and a half seasons of elite production?

That's what happens when you hit a lot of singles and doubles in the draft. Also what often happens when you haven't cracked even the top 20 in draft position since 2019.

I was never a fan of it to begin with. The worst thing you can do is give up hefty compensation (two first rounders plus) for a non QB and then make that player the highest paid at that position in the league. Except for Metcalf because the trade assets wouldn't be as crippling.

The Browns paying him without an established QB gives me the Mario Williams signing vibes.

It's technically different but it would have taken a leap of faith to think the Cardinals or Titans would be a contender.

Von Miller just reported on the Bees and Wax podcast that he's working really hard for the Bills on recruiting Von Miller. So, I'm guessing there's no shot whatsoever now.

No. Don't worry. Watson will come back late in this year and turn into his 2020 self leading the Browns to the Super Bowl.

I'd pry have played it exactly the same way Garrett did. I can't blame them.

I just laughed. In the end it's usually about the money. Lol.

I think that was Tom Moore but still a great quote. As for the backup QB, it will be a competition between Trubisky and White throughout training camp. We save $2.5m by cutting Trubisky so the hope is White wins. If Trubisky is clearly the better QB though we keep him. There's always the chance of a 4 to 6 week injury to Josh where if we just can go .500 we still make the playoffs.

Browns may not trade Garrett to an AFC team. Bengals may not trade Hendrickson to a conference rival. Metcalf might not want to come here because it's too cold if we go the offensive route. I think there's one big free agent trade or signing that Beane makes on the D-line but the concept of draft, develop, and re-sign the players you hit on a year before their contract's up is on is how you maintain a regular Super Bowl contender while paying an elite QB. I don't remember an off-season where we look at our o-line and say "we're good" so we got that going for us. We can really improve this defensive line through the draft even if we don't sign an elite pass rusher opposite Groot. The main complaint and a valid one is we have too many B players and hardly any A players besides Josh Allen. Let's just wait and see what this roster looks like in August before freaking out when we don't catch any of these big fish via trade.

They all can't be Hasek's.

For all the complaining about the defensive line you have to give Beane credit for nailing down the offensive line. Large thanks to Kromer.
