I get why both teams make this move, Texans are in win now mode and Dolphins are in full tank for a QB but then why did they just give up a high pick on Rosen? Has he already convinced them hes a bust? Just dosnt seem like they have a plan there.
well for starters, they way overpaid for rosen. He was getting cut. A 3rd should have been the absolute highest anyone paid, but acquiring him was not bad and it still isn't. They can still use this year to judge if he's any good. If he takes over for fitz at some point, they can see what they've got or they can do that next year with a rookie.

I don't think he's a top 31 forward personally, and he's an unbelievable drama queen. I've never seen a player who's done so little be such a whiny B word. -

You are ***** nuts.
Ok. I think the numbers and results speak for themselves. Eichel doesn't even play the same sport as McDavid.-

You can thank Tim Murray for rushing the damned rebuild.
If Tim Murray didn't get unlucky and lose out on McDavid, he and Bielsma would still be here. The problem with the rebuild isn't the 2 GMs or 3 coaches we've had in the last couple of years. It's Jack Eichel.

Man, do you think they would have taken Dawkins and Beasley for that haul? -
Tre White is as close as you get, though Nationally they don't consider him a Tier 1A corner yet.

Yeah but back then you were going after him based on potential. He hasn't shown it.
True, but it's interesting he wasn't an early cut based on his nearly zero results in pre-season/camp. I wanted to draft him with a day 2 pick. Imagine my surprise when he went undrafted.
If he makes the team there has to be something else at play. Perhaps he absolutely blew them away in the classroom and they've intentionally had him focus on his weaknesses during camp and pre-season or something. It's really weird though. -

Sills can easily be cut and put on the PS. I doubt anyone is hot for him.
A lot of folks wanted him as a UDFA. I could be wrong, but I believe we made him the highest paid UDFA.

I like Singletary a lot, he has a cool style. I'm not sure I see that translating into high end RB1 numbers though. He's just too slow.

I just don't see how this makes us a better football team this year. We're a billion dollars under the cap, and even if they want to give others players more run, he's a useful piece to have. Reminds me of the Watkins/Darby trades where they just wanted them gone.

Watkins and Goodman are trash. Sorry Mrs. Jones..
One of them played in the AFC Championship and the other is the #1 WR on a rising team looking to run deep. I bet they don't miss Buffalo

I can't speak for everyone, but I had my first cellphone for work in 2003. My kids/nephews/ and grandkids have no idea what playing with neighborhood kids, or a stick, or a ball ,even means. its a drag on society IMO. and my opinion means nothing. its simply my opinion?

Great trade. Getting a 5&6 this year for a guy getting cut is a nice situation for us. Bates is a way better player. Hopefully it works out for them.

I in no way want Rivers to get hurt. But IF he did, it would be hilarious if Eli ended his career with the Chargers.
They would roll with taylor -
The Colts had 4 good QBs a week ago, and one of them was getting cut. Now they keep all 3. The only QB they would want right now would be a guy like Eli.

I mean he has some talent but if his last name wasn’t Kelly, would you have been interested?
the talent is undeniable. It's the 2nd, 3rd. 4th chances that come with the name.

I'm a typical Kool-Aid drinking Pollyanna Bills fan. When we got Brown & Beasley I figured 2/3rds of our receiving corps problems had been solved. I have gone through the preseason figuring Brown our #1, Beasley our slot, and we only have to figure out who that "complementary" WR is going to be, and the room seemed full of guys none of whom would be a bad choice to fill that bill. Today, for the first time, I took a look at Browns stats and nothing really jumped out at me shouting #1 receiver. I figured I'd look at Zay Jones stats to see how much of an upgrade Brown would be. Much to my surprise (if you take away Zay's rookie year where he played with shoulder problems) they pretty much look like the same guy.
I'm not as down on Zay as most of you. While I don't think he's much of a #1 receiver, I think he could play the role as that "complementary guy" just fine, problem is Brown seems to have had HIS problems with missed catches too … have I deluded myself into thinking that Brown is a clear cut #1, I'm NOT talking Jerry Rice, Megatron, OBJ #1, just a sure handed, reliable, you can count on him MOST of the time receiver?
I get it that Brown is faster than Zay, but I don't want faster … I want catches the ball better.
Talk me off the cliff people … convince me we don't have a Zay, and a fast Zay on our hands here.
Brown is our #1, but he isn't really what you want in a #1 receiver. On a good team, you'd like him to be your 3rd option, with a legitimate #1 do it all superstar, and number 2 possession receiver who can block and brown as your #3 burner type. If you have a great pass catching TE, he can be your #2.

It might take another 30 years, but society will shift so that it is hard to find parents who are willing to let their children do this stuff.
And much more significantly, insurance companies may cease insuring schools so that they are unable to compete in football leagues.
When these things happen, the game will start to die.
The game's been dying for 20 years.

I can see a new punter, a trade for a significant upgrade (Clowney?) and picking up an better backup O-lineman that we currently have on the roster (center?). That’s my 3.
I think Bates is your backup C right now.-

Seeing Lee Smith/DiMarco's name on this list is depressing me right now.
Lee Smith is the best active TE on the roster right now, as sad as that is.

3. I love Thurman, but OJ is still the best RB in Bills history. Bruce Smith is greatest Bill ever
How could anyone disagree with any of that?

- Doug Whaley is unjustly crucified for putting together a solid roster in a short period of time with zero help from his predecessors or any of the coaches he was forced to live with. Never got to pick his QB or his coach but still had a playoff caliber team that those guys squandered.
- Jim Kelly is a little overrated as a QB by Buffalonians. Great Hall of Fame player, fantastic story and a wonderful ambassador for the region. Just not quite the player some people put him at.- Bill Polian is grossly overrated as a GM
- If NFL players can't handle the risk of concussions or other serious injury, they should have stuck to baseball.
- The Pegulas saved Buffalo sports with their money, but have ruined them with their management.-

How can you make that comparison? “Way better”. In what regard? How does one quantify this claim?
Jeff Gordon was way better than Tom Brady...?
I can make the claim because Gretzky is indisputably the greatest hockey player to ever play the game, who demolished the league so badly that his records will never be broken. Jordan has a lot more close contenders like Bill Russel, WIlt Chamberlain, etc.
Gretzky also holds the same scoring records for the playoffs that would take a patriots-esque dynasty to ever think about being challenged. His career was pure insanity. -

Really? Which team won a championship without their star player?
Gretzky has more career assist than any other NHL player has points, and he's also the all-time goals leader and the single season goals leader. Unless the NHL goes full MLB Home Run ball, those records are absolutely insane and will never be broken. Championships aren't the sole measure of greatness, but he still has 4 of them.

Is there a player in the history of sports who wouldn't be traded, if the price is right?
Michael Jordan, maybe?
Gretzky was way better than Jordan and he was traded.

Virtually whole new starting offense

While it's a completely new look for the team, I'm HIGHLY skeptical that they'll be very much improved over last year's group. I still think this is likely a bottom 5-10 unit unless someone like Foster breaks out. IMO, we've already seen the best of guys like Brown, Beasley, Gore, Kroft, and Yeldon and none of that is good enough to propel us into being a potent offense. We really need Robert Foster to shock the league and turn into a superstar and one of the two rookie TE's to prove the should have been drafted in the 2nd.
I like Singletary, but I think he's a complimentary back, based on being so slow and small. It's hard to have a great offense when you don't have a RB capable of taking it to the house or a WR who's open even when he's covered. Only team I can think of that's built like that is the Pats, and Brady/Belichick nullify all standard rules.
