  1. The edge defender coming off of Allen's blindside and knocking him out for the year... *edit spelling
  2. he absolutely cannot say no. It’s a mechanism in the contract that converts money, it doesn’t take it away. They do not need Allen’s approval or signature. A restructure is not a new contract.
  3. You're right, he was elite pre-injuries.
  4. I think Joe Brady as OC is going to be an interesting one. There are quite a few OC jobs open and you have to figure he is going to be on the list for several of them. Most notably, I think Cincy is the biggest threat to poach him if we decide to take our time on the decision. Brady was the passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach at LSU in 2019 when they won the National Championship with Burrow and Chase. One would assume he has a good relationship with both players and that opening would be appealing.
  5. I was thinking about this. We are already a day behind in prep work/rest. It’s going to really suck if because of the weather the team can’t get to the facility tomorrow and get treatment and begin practice for Sunday.
  6. It really didn’t though. It was pretty doom and gloom leading up to that Buccaneers loss. We went embarrassing loss to the Jags, killed the jets, got demolished by the colts, killed the saints, wind game, loss to the Bucs. Luckily they figured something out as a team during that bucs comeback attempt and rode it the rest of the year. But prior to that, they looked inconsistent and tight, much like they do now
  7. Good on Beane for making a push but having other forks in the fire as well. Would Jaylon have been awesome? Absolutely! Am I thrilled that we didn't get left at the alter and went ahead and made a play for a pretty good player in Douglas when it became apparent Johnson wasn't happening? You better believe it
  8. Good on Beane for having multiple forks in the fire and being able to pivot when he realized Jaylon wasn't happening https://x.com/Schultz_Report/status/1719443222185799811?s=20
  9. He will absolutely start. He is currently the 12-rated CB this season and on a deal that we can easily extend. A pretty damn good commodity versus an unknown 3rd round pick is a good trade-off to me, especially considering we get a 5 back and will likely recoup the 3 as a comp pick from Edmunds
  10. This is exactly what I was going to say! Definitely more of a reflection on them. Great move
  11. If the rumors of Suh are legit, then it leads me to believe (hope) that Beane is targeting CB or LB via trade. He is dealing with limited resources so as much as we would all love for him to make big splash trades to fill the holes left by injury, it's just not feasible. My hope is that he has identified his target, and is attempting to plug/patch some of the other holes with cheap vet signings so he can commit what resources he does have to land his preferred target.
  12. Norman being up doesn't mean he is going to start. It means if push comes to shove, they don't trust Elam and would rather put Norman into the lineup. Fingers crossed, he doesn't even see the field tonight
  13. If it is true Isabella is up, who is he replacing at WR? Sherfield? Harty? Or do we go with 2 running backs and sit down Ty?
  14. For Thursday night games, teams do not have to announce until 4pm on the day of the game I believe
  15. Cook missed due to personal reasons. No game designations have been given yet. IMO nothing to worry about unless he misses again tomorrow. EDIT: James Cook had a baby today per Katherine Fitzgerald
  16. The 49ers have done this in the past. They stay in Youngstown, Ohio where their owner was raised and still has family in the area. They last did it in 2019, coincidentally when Jimmy G was the QB.
  17. YouTube TV offers a free trial. I subscribed on Thursday and have been extremely impressed. You can cancel the free trial right away and still have access for the entire trial period.
  18. Beane said in his presser that they will have a qb finalized tomorrow. So someone from the PS will likely be let go
  19. I am confused about where the notion that Beane is riding his pick of JA17 and that otherwise he is not a good drafter started. I compiled all of his draft picks between 2018 and 2021 and I see very few flat out misses. 2018 Josh Allen Tremaine Edmunds – 74 career games played (74 started). 2 Pro Bowls. Signed a massive deal with the Bears in FA Harrison Phillips – 62 career games played, 45 in Buffalo (28 started). Signed with Vikings in FA Taron Johnson – 71 career games played (50 started). Considered one of the top nickel CB in the game Siran Neal – 80 career games played (1 started). Special teams ace Wyatt Teller – 66 career games played, 8 in Buffalo (59 started). 2 Pro Bowls Ray-Ray McCloud – 65 career games played, 10 in Buffalo (10 started) – 2020 2nd team all pro KR Austin Proehl – Cut and never played a down in the league 2019 Ed Oliver – 62 career games played (53 started). 2019 All Rookie Team. Signed an Extension with the Bills Cody Ford – 49 career games played, 38 in Buffalo (32 started). Traded to Cardinals, currently with the Bengals. Devin Singletary – 61 career games played (56 started). Signed with Texans in FA Dawson Knox – 57 career games played (47 started). 1 Pro Bowl. Signed an extension with the Bills Vosean Joseph – Never played a snap in the league Jaquan Johnson – 60 career games played (4 started). Primarily ST.

Signed an extension with the Bills Isaiah Hodgins – 11 career games, 1 with Buffalo (5 started). Released by Bills and signed by the Giants Dane Jackson – 37 career games played (22 started). Signed a 1 year deal with the Bills 2021 Greg Rousseau – 30 career games played (30 started) Boogie Basham – 23 career games played (0 started) Spencer Brown – 27 career games played (24 started) Tommy Doyle – 12 career games played (0 Started) Marquez Stevenson – 5 career games played (0 started). Currently with the Panthers Damar Hamlin – 29 career games played (13 started) Rachad Wildgoose – 20 career games played (3 started) Never played with the Bills Jack Anderson – 14 career games played (3 started) Never played with the Bills Is he drafting superstars with every pick? Of course not. Does he draft guys that have sustainable careers in the NFL? Yes, with darn near every pick. Out of 31 picks between 2019 and 2021, only 2 are not currently in the league and 14 no longer play for the Bills, but are still in the league. Do I wish he would have hit on a few more big-time players? Of course, I do. But he has consistently added quality depth through the draft. The notion that he cannot draft or has a terrible draft record outside of JA17 is just flat-out wrong.
  20. He said he F***** loves him? Care to elaborate on how thats not good? Not like he said, "yeah, stef, F that guy."
  21. no offense taken, I agree it doesn’t tell the whole story on Gabe. However, I also think it shows he hasn’t been this sub par wide receiver that some posters want to make him out to be. I think Gabe has been a victim of the routes he has been asked to run and has been a victim of the epic Divisional game. People expected him to put up 2 TDs and 100+ every game. Comparing his stats to other WR2 around the league, he is comparable or better than most. I also think we need to define what “WR2” is. Most of what people want is another WR1.
  22. We have a WR2, whether you want to admit it or not, we do. As you said, the stats speak for themselves. Per Cover 1 Now, obviously, this does not include his drop rate, which we can both agree is too high. But let's not sit here and say we do not have a WR2. Gabe is young, has loads of potential, and has put together a solid body of work. Could we improve the position? Certainly. Could we do a helluva lot worse, absolutely! Kincaid is only going to make this team, this offense, and I believe, Gabe Davis better.
  23. For the sake of argument, let's say this is true. How many "good corners" do most teams carry? 1 maybe 2. Cool, let's say 2 just for the argument, one on Diggs with likely bracket coverage, and the other "good corner" on Kincaid. Does that leave a team's 3rd best corner alone on an island against Davis? I present you, Gabe Davis, against an average corner, with no safety help:
  24. PacMan, who likely is talking directly with DHop, is saying something could go down as early as tonight.
