This is my favorite Bills offseason move so far. After they re-signed Milano and Williams I was starting to think Feliciano might be the odd man out. Hopefully they can find a way to get a DE or TE but if they do nothing else in FA from here on except re-sign a couple of their RFAs I'm happy.
-
I would be on board with restructuring White, Poyer, Dawkins, and cutting Addison/Butler/Jefferson. That would free up about $35m to resign Feliciano/Williams and hopefully Milano, or maybe a space eater or pass rusher on the DL.
I hope they don't cut Brown or Morse I want to keep as much of last year's offense in tact as possible. I also wouldn't approach Diggs for a restructure, because if I were him my answer back would be sure, but can I have a raise first? (Which I'm fine if the team gives him, just hopefully not until next year when our cap space is better)
-
I don't understand this one. Why not bring him into camp next season? Reading through the responses so far I'm really in the minority on this but I thought when healthy he was our 2nd best CB.

I'd bet on KC.
Or do a prop bet.. maybe on who will win MVP... and pick Mahomes, Kelce, or Hill
-
In order, I would try to re-sign:
1) Feliciano
2) Daryl Williams
3) Milano
4) Roberts
5) Levi Wallace/Justin Zimmer/Boettger (these three should be easy)
If needed I'd cut Butler/Jefferson to free up space and draft a DT early.
Milano would be the odd man out for me if there's not enough $$ to re-sign everyone but would be disappointed if the Bills cant find a way to keep him.
-
I hope not. I would leave the offense in tact if possible. If they need to free up cap space I'd rather see them do it by releasing someone(s) on the D-line. I'd rather see Brown extended than cut.

1) DT
2) LB
3) CB
I'd like to see the Bills cut the two DTs they signed this off-season and use that $$ to pay Milano.

I just read through this thread for the first time. When it started, every single Trump supporter made fun of the OP or called the idea that Trump would refuse to concede science fiction.
Now it has happened, and every Trump supporter that responded except for one is not only ok with Trump refusing to concede, but are making excuses for his false, baseless attempts to undermine faith in our electoral process.
I always assumed this is how Trump would act if he lost, but I personally didn't think we would get to this point as long as the results weren't particularly close (which they weren't) because I thought then Senate Republicans would have to speak out. No matter how low I set my expectations, most of them continue to slither underneath the bar ever since Trump got elected.
Were Trump supporters always like this or did four years of Trump make them this way? How can most of them ever go back to pretending to be patriotic after this? There is nothing more patriotic than the right to vote and Trump is trying to cast doubt on the entire process in an effort to fund raise on his way out the door and give himself a hook for when he starts his TV network. I hope Lindsay Graham and Mitch McConnell are keeping their democratic challengers updated given that they "won" their races on the same "fraudulent" ballots that Trump is complaining about. The ones he and his supporters wanted everyone to stop counting in Michigan and PA, keep counting in Arizona, re-count in Wisconsin, and continue counting in Nevada until Nevada was called for Biden at which point all of those ballots somehow became fraudulent too..
None of Trump's allegations even make any sense. One allegation is inconsistent with the next. None have any proof. None have held up in court. And the best Trump can offer is a press conference held by Rudi Giuliani claiming fraud, providing no evidence, behind a landscaping business, next to an adult book store selling dildos buy one get one free.
And still his supporters follow everything he says, no matter how crazy or how unamerican.. no evidence required..

You feel threatened by my presence here. By the way I would like to hear from someone who knows something about statistics among other things. Explain the probability of a batch of ballots into the 100's of thousands going to only one candidate? I would not buy that if they were all going to Trump. Poster known as Logic please explain this.
At no time did 100s of thousands of ballots go to only one candidate.
BUT.. in the states of Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, Republican state legislatures made it against the law to count the mail in ballots until after polls closed on election day. So the same day vote came in first which went overwhelmingly Republican and the mail in vote came in last. In the cities with hundreds of thousands of people, it took longer to sort all the ballots than in small rural counties with a few hundred or a few thousand mail-ins.
So when ballots came in from Milwaukee, or Philadelphia, or other already heavily democratic cities that typically vote Democrat by a margin of 3 or 4 to 1 anyway... and all of those votes left to count at the end were entirely mail-in votes... which President Trump told his supporters NOT to use... it would make sense those votes that were received in a way that was used mostly be democrats, in a city that is already heavily democratic would come in overwhelmingly in favor of Biden.
The opposite happened in Florida and Ohio where the mail in ballots were counted prior to election day and same day votes were tallied after, which is why Florida and Ohio were both Democrat +10-12 in the first hours after the polls closed before finishing as wins for Trump.
The numbers make sense if you're looking by county and there are plenty of sites that let you do that. They certainly makes more sense than the baseless conspiracy theory offered up by former President Trump claiming unspecified voter fraud despite the lengths that you need to go to in order to confirm your identity to receive an absentee ballot, the fact that there is a chain of custody that documents exactly who opens, flattens, sorts, scans every ballot, which is all done with observers on behalf of both campaigns in the room, and is also done on camera being recorded (and also livestreamed so that people could actually watch from their homes) that somehow despite all of this, hundreds of thousands of people were able to sneak in fraudulent ballots... but only in the presidential race because apparently these fake ballots still favored Senators like Perdue, Loeffler, and Tillis for some reason...
Can this be a thread where we get to celebrate having a normal president again that doesn't make up crazy unproven allegations all the time? There are plenty of places on social media to post unproven conspiracy theories if that's what you'd rather do.

I think Lorenzo Alexander said there isn't much difference in this scheme between MLB and OLB.. just that MLB calls the pre-snap reads etc. I'd pay Milano, let Edmunds walk when his contract is up if his play hasn't substantially improved by then, and look for a replacement MLB.
-
If the Bills cut Trent Murphy six weeks in do they get 10/16s of his base salary back against the cap? Or once you're on a team week 1 your base salary is guaranteed?
If he's going to be a healthy scratch anyway the Bills need that $$ for next year.
-
I think I have all these players correct based on pictures..in a few cases names would be helpful.
Bledsoe $5
Moulds $5
Woods $2
Owens $1
Singletary $2

My guess has been the only way we are likely to have NFL football is if they put all NFL players, families, coaches, refs, trainers, etc into a group quarantine a few weeks before the season starts and everyone has to stay quarantined until the season is over. I don't know if that's possible, but for the amount of money at stake I'm surprised they didn't at least look into this.
If one player gets sick (which will happen) there's a fair chance a good percentage of that team gets sick. What happens then? If a center gets sick the entire offensive line and QB are out for a month? What happens when the first player gets hospitalized or worse?
IMO the NFL would have needed to take steps that they aren't going to take to have a normal season. I really hope I'm over thinking this because it would really suck to lose NFL football this year, especially since this is the first year since the 90s where I can say without being a homer that the Bills are the best team in the AFCE. Hopefully somehow the season just gets postponed/shortened and not cancelled entirely. But I'd be really surprised if we get a 16 week season on schedule.

I try to keep politics and sports separate (including on here) but since this thread specifically asks... I wish President Trump would stop trying to politicize the NFL for his own gain. Football is where I go for 3 hours to get away from that kind of stuff. I've never considered athletes kneeling to be all that political. If they want to use their celebrity to bring awareness to an issue that's important to them it doesn't bother me any and they have my full support. I've never liked the way the President and his allies in the right wing media have tried to co-opt what I view as a harmless peaceful statement into some sort of political nonsense about disrespecting the flag. I've never fully understood why it's so easy for some to confuse the two when that's clearly not what anyone is trying to do.

CB. I think I am a lot higher on Wallace, Gaines, Taron than most. I think all of them are quality starters and would be disappointed to see one of them bumped off the roster.
I’m hoping for a WR or edge but trust Beane and would be happy with any other position.

I’m not certain what the reason is, but a 3 way tie at 10-6 with the Texans , Bills, and Titans including a Titans sweep of HOU knocks the Bills out in my scenarios on playoff machine( ESPN). It doesn’t give explanations that I know of, and I haven’t reviewed tiebreaking procedures to figure it out. Seems to be one of the few situations the Bills could miss out in. Edit: this is factoring in a Bills loss to PIT
Tenn would win the division over Houston due to beating them twice. Houston would get the wildcard against Buffalo because of a better conference record.
I think the Steelers and Raiders would both get the wildcard over us at 10-6 also, unless the bills 10th win is against the steelers.
Bills have tiebreakers over Tenn & Indy.

What the ***** is wrong with me?
A 40ish year old grown man screaming at the TV and jumping up and down.I'm 37 and was screaming and jumping up and down too when I thought Hughes scored to win the game. And I don't usually let the games affect me that positively or negatively anymore. After they called it back the rest of the game I had a feeling they were going to lose. Today was a tough one!

This is going to be a long week. I think this is the most disappointed I've been after a Bills loss in a long time. Probably since the Bills lost to the steelers week 16 in the early 2000s. Not sure if it's because I thought the game was over when Hughes looked like he scored or if it's because a win today probably put the Bills in the playoffs... but this one sucks.

Yes. TE is a need on this team. This team needs a DE, WR2, and TE. and Howard is probably the best prospect still available at any of those 3 positions. I'd give up at least a 3rd. *maybe* a 2nd.
-
No. When the schedule came out I figured the Bills needed to be 4-1 going into the bye to have a good shot at the playoffs, 3-2 to still have a chance. They need to stack some wins together now because later in the season the schedule gets tougher.
I figured they *should* beat the Jets/Giants, would probably lose to NE, so I thought they would most likely be 4-1 or 3-2 going into the bye. 3-2 wouldn't be the end of the world but it would be disappointing.
-
Sounds like lazy journalism, I can't see how anyone who watched that game and has two eyes thought the Bills defense was "far too pliable" against the Jets offense.
But other than that, after a 17-16 win against the Jets 19th sounds about right.

Really? I thought Taron played great and I hope he's not out for long, but I thought Neal played terribly. He would've been the worst player on the field today if it wasn't for the Jets' kicker... I hope they bring someone else in at DB before next week.

I voted no. I don't think the Jets are good enough to get into the playoffs this year, and if the Bills can't beat the Jets, I don't think the Bills will either. The Bills have an easy start to their schedule. Their best shot at making the playoffs is a fast 4-1 or 5-1 start.

This is more directed toward fans who have to drive a long way to attend a game.
I drive over 5 hours to get to Orchard Park. With the ticket prices and the tailgating options, I don't mind one bit. I only go to one home game/year.
But it's expensive. One home game costs me a total of about $700 when it's all said and done with tickets (2), lodging, tailgate food/beer, etc.
When the Bills build their new stadium downtown and jack the prices up ... AND make the tailgating experience one that dictates you eat their food and drink their beer at their prices .... I won't go anymore.
I live an hour north of Albany, NY. A 3.5 hour (tops) drive to the Meadowlands/MetLife. Part of me thinks that, if the Bills price me out, I'd just latch onto a team that's closer to me.
I've always said that if I lived 2 hours closer to Buffalo, I'd be a season ticket holder. I could do that with one of the New Jersey teams and be able to afford going to games.
Anyone else giving this any thought? I hate the thought of being gouged out of my fandom, but it looks like it's heading in that direction.
I moved to Florida last year and had to buy DirecTV Sunday Ticket to make sure I got to watch all Bills games, and NFL network to see the pre-season ones. I tried watching a few Bucs games (my new local team) for a few weeks since the Bucs were starting Fitz at the time who I've liked since his time here and I think the Bills may have been trotting out Nathan Peterman at the time too which was making them a little tough to watch... I just couldn't stay engaged in the Bucs game, it wasn't the same. Unfortunately I'm stuck rooting for the Bills for life. This question probably doesn't apply to me since I haven't made it to a game in person since moving but if something changed and I couldn't afford Bills' games I'd go to less and watch the rest from home. Who wants to root for the Jets/Giants?
Bills sign Mitch Trubisky, QB.

I'm surprised by this one. He's definitely better than the back-up QBs we had but I'm not sure if this was the best use of cap space this year. I would've rather had Ertz.
I wonder how people are going to feel when the cap details come out. I can't imagine he signed for less than Dalton or Tyrod. I'm guessing 1 yr 8-10mil?
Although we've already established Beane is a Wizard... so I guess we'll see.
