Welcome to "Who's Line Is It Anyway" where the salary cap doesn't matter and the players are made up

Looks bad for us until you realize that Mahomes has to play Herbert 2x, Wilson 2x, and Raiders 2x next year during the regular season, then possibly again in playoffs.

Hmm... using our 1st round pick on a 3-tech DT when the obvious need is 1-tech DT, CB, DE, and WR? No thanks. Oliver and Wyatt won't be on the field at the same time on a ton of downs. He's also not best player available. It would be better to lean in to positional strength in the draft like WR.

https://www.nbcsportsedge.com/football/nfl/player/58052/jack-easterby For those less familiar, Easterby is a "company man" that has the ear of the team owner and is rumored to be behind some of the Texans worst hires and franchise decisions. He has survived through some of the most inept front office regimes football has ever seen. Thank god our version of Easterby is very, very far away from the team now.

He actually said the exact opposite buddy: https://www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bills/2021/05/why-bills-are-struggling-to-land-top-udfas-how-brandon-beane-prepared-for-this.html He said we need as many late round picks as possible because it's hard to recruit UDFA's due to the roster being so competitive. Here's another one where he said he traded back last year to get more late round picks for the same reason: https://buffalowdown.com/2021/05/03/buffalo-bills-nfl-draft-brandon-beane-explains-reason-trade-back/

Whenever I see fans post things like this, I feel embarrassed for them. Do you not understand the value of having free 3rd round picks, 4th round picks, etc.? Look at the most successful teams in the league the past several decades: Patriots, Ravens, Packers, etc. They all know how to exploit the comp pick formula. As for the formula, it's not that complicated. Here's a link to show upcoming comp picks. 1) You need to release more players than you sign. 2) If the players you let go (or don't re-sign) get big $$$ in free agency, you get free draft picks. These are not throw-away picks. They matter. 2021 Round 3: Spencer Brown 2020 Round 4: Gabriel Davis 2020 Round 6: Tyler Bass 2019 Round 3: Devin Singletary 2019 Round 3: Dawson Knox 2018: Round 3: Harrison Phillips 2018 Round 4: Taron Johnson 2018 Round 5: Wyatt Teller

Lets play the expected trade out... Raiders traded a 3rd and 5th for him, but that was after the Bills drama. We would have likely given a similar or better package. 2019 2nd Round: Cody Ford 3rd Round: Devin Singletary 3rd Round: Dawson Knox 5th Round: Vosean Joseph 2020: 2nd Round: AJ Epenesa 3rd Round: Zack Moss 5th Round: Jake Fromm If the 2019 picks were given up, that would have stung a bit. If it was 2020 picks, meh.

Always surprised when people pick him. He's undersized and has never shown positional flexibility, so... is the assumption that we're going to cut or trade Morse? There are way bigger needs. He's a super athletic Center and a great player, but I'd rather have a massive Guard if that's the true need and groom a Center late.

He's not even allowed to have other offers yet. Why would he say he's taking another one when he doesn't know the market?

They showed him during the Super Bowl watching the half time show and said after the game that he wanted to watch the half time show. I'll catch you up on the rest. The Rams beat the Bengals, the year is 2022, and you've been woken up from a long coma.

Owed $17M per year for the next 4 seasons. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/carolina-panthers/christian-mccaffrey-21749/ Why on earth would we trade a first for McCaffrey when we can sign any RB we want for that kind of money. That's $2M/yr more than Derrick Henry and Alvin Kamara and way more than Dalvin Cook and Joe Mixon.

My counter-point is that punt length isn't the only trait you're looking for in great punters. Both Haack and Bojo were terrible at "coffin corner" punting. When you pin an offense inside their 1-3 yard line, that's usually an immediate stop and good field position for your team. It's way more important than the net 4 yards you mentioned. Bojo and Haack would almost always sail it into the end zone.

I'm sure I'll be in the minority here, but I actually agree with this logic. Matt "Punt God" Araiza would be as close to a sure thing as you could get. Araiza is also a pretty good place kicker, so there's your backup to Bass in case of injury as well. The top 3 punters in the league make almost $4M/yr and their teams never let them go. They are game changers. Using a 4th would sting a bit, but I'd do it. He likely won't be around in the 5th-7th.

By that logic, every regular season game would go into overtime. But they don't. The more time that goes by, the more fair the game is because every team has multiple chances. Just like every other major sport.

A lot of grumpy old men in this thread. Change isn't always bad fellas. Ask yourself... does the team that wins the coin toss have a significant advantage over the team that doesn't? If so, why would you give a significant advantage to a team based on a coin flip when you don't have to?

I did not suggest overpaying for an RB or not overpaying for an RB. I just thought the idea of the Giants giving picks to offload Saquon's contract is a ridiculous proposition. Two years ago he was one of the brightest stars in the entire league and he's still on his rookie deal.

So... you really think the Giants are going to GIVE picks for Saquon Barkley? The #2 overall pick, who ran for over 1,000 yards his first two years... is going to be traded for NEGATIVE PICKS because he was injured the last two years and has an "Albatross" contract of $7.2M? If you don't like the guy, fine... but what you're proposing is ridiculous. He's getting paid $1M less than Kenyan Drake and $1M more than Chris Carson. It's not a huge contract.

You must not have looked at the poll... or looked at Spotrac. $7.2M for one season. That's not an "albatross" and it isn't comparable to Brock Osweiler at all.

Joe Shoen remarked at the combine today that he's open to anything when it comes to Saquon Barkley. The Bills certainly have the Beane-Shoen connection going for them. What would you trade?

*Consummate. I'm guessing the twitter guy got it wrong. Otherwise, he probably would have used quotes.

I would love it if he joins the division. Sure, the games would be harder, but we would finally get a shot at him at full strength. To be the best, you gotta beat the best.

If you think it's ok to attack women under any circumstance, then I got nothin for ya bud. I don't really care what the police said. Call it virtue signaling if you want, but a guy rushing toward a woman and kicking her in the head is not my cup of tea.

This is the guy you want? https://www.tmz.com/videos/0-exjrtvg5/ "Never charged with a crime" ... come on. If you're fine with compromising on character, at least admit it.

An unlikely, but nightmare scenario would be KC trading future picks for another stud WR, then using their picks and $11M for more O-Line and D-Line.

Colts with Rodgers would be more dangerous. Imagine that running game and defense with a competent QB.
