  1. At the risk of letting my inner "Grug hit rock" out, I think it's crazy that people are still trying to use analytics on football.  There are too many variables, too many moving parts, and too many intangibles for it it to ever work out like it does in baseball.  Don't forget that draftniks and analytics types all said that Allen would be a monumental bust that would shame the Bills franchise for all time.  Now he's walking over the corpse of mathematics to claim that future MVP and super bowl ring.

     

    There have only ever been two things that matter in football: is the guy fast and does he pass the eye test.  So to get back on topic, give me a monster DT who excels in their made up statistic and plug him in on the Bills D-line and watch my average blood pressure while watching the Bills drop dramatically.

    This Cuomo news today is a problem.  This isn’t a political statement.  It’s a Bills issue.  The Bills don’t cut the deal with Poloncarz or the County.  It’s the Governor.  And now, the pro-Bills governor is under significant, real, severe duress.  Now we have no idea with whom the Bills will be able to cut a deal.  Keep an eye on what Carl Heastie says about this in the coming days.  If Heastie turns on him, then it’s over, and we’re looking at Governor Hochul in the short term and Governor James/DiNapoli/Hochul/Zeldin/someone else in the long term. 

    I also had a mild panic attack about this when I saw the Cuomo news, but as long as negotiations happen while Hochul is in charge it'll be okay.

    I would hate to make the most money, but not be able to afford a decent OL and WR’s. The difference between $450 million and $400 million (or whatever the numbers are) would not affect by lifestyle.

     

    Getting the crap beaten out of me, having nobody to throw to and losing more than winning would be worth it to take less TO ME. I speak only for myself, but I hope Josh has a little voice in his head chirping something like that. 

     

    He’s better than those other guys and DESERVES more, but I hope it’s not a matter of ego to try to break the bank.

    Hometown discounts are a fantasy that exist only in the minds of fans.  And Tom Brady.  Any agent worth paying is going to get you the biggest contract possible, and he should.

  4. Edmunds' agent will want a deal that puts Edmunds at the top of ILB contracts, and if he's doing his job as an agent that's to be expected.  Those pro bowls give him legitimacy in wanting that much money, and if he hits the open market someone will fork over the big bucks whether he's worth it or not.  Maybe Edmunds balls out over the next two years and is 1st team all-pro, if he does I'll be ecstatic.  But I highly doubt that so to me letting him walk instead of forking over 100m+ for an inside linebacker is the easiest decision in the world.  If he performs at the same level or slightly better as now I would tag him for a year though.
