  1. It's possible I suppose.  It depends on if the Bills think they can still make him a fit in our defense and if the kid can improve.  I don't think the kid is done but if the Bills don't value him or don't think they can make him work then I would expect at some point they will try and get something for him.  He was a 1st round pick. I think it's dumb to just let those guys walk.  Get something for him if he can't play here.  Anything is better than nothing.

  2. I never thought the Bills were in play for a big time WR.  They are in a reset year and had to dump a bunch of our talent due to age and or cap hits. Their strategy right now is to get the cap back under control and draft well IMO.  I do think they are players to possibly move up to get a potential star receiver and if they do so they are probably good for the next 5 years.  Providing they actually get the right guy.

  3. Not saying it wasnt time to move on but I'm definitely going to miss the Hyde-Poyer combo.  Everyone is.  Same with Tre White.  I'll miss what Diggs brought to the table but not what he brought last year.  Morse seemed to get pushed back fairly easy in some games but he was solid center.  Our oline has sucked for years and now they are playing with it again. Center is the one spot that needs to be on point communication.  Ill never forget Morse going out and Josh fumbling the next snap.

  4. Why do people do these “calling it now” or whatever other corny stuff type headings. Like just make a normal thread. This adds nothing except that maybe you have some possibility of looking like a fool down the road. People call ya fool and move on. Less manufactured drama. More better posts. 
     

    I was banging the table last season that Shakir was our most explosive receiver on the team.

  5. Just seems like wasted cap money to me.  Thats fine when there is cap space but there isn't.  This team always seems to rather have 5 bottom end cheap guys than 1 guy who is good to great at his position.  I know there needs to be camp bodies and backups or whatever but that should be a min contract guy.

    The additional cap hit is... fairly meaningless. 

     

    Its easier to just look at it like... imagine if he blew out his knee.  He's on IR.  The cap hits the cap hit - and he doesn't play.  

    I’m not talking about the additional. It’s meaningless change. I’m saying that we are paying for a guy that isn’t here. Much like we paid for Darius who wasn’t here. That’s the way it is. I don’t really want to argue about it because like I said, I am fine with it. I’m not going to act like it’s invisible and didn’t happen though. It’s 30m or whatever for an empty hole. That’s reality.

    We all understand that Diggs' 2024 cap hit is only $3M more now than it would have been with him here, right? I fear when fans read "dead cap hit" they imagine some additional cap penalty for moving him. It's basically the same as him being here, but now the Bills will save mucho cap space in 2025 and beyond. 

     

    I'm excited to see Joe Brady calling plays, and Josh Allen distributing the football, COMPLETELY FREE of selfish egos in the huddle and on the sideline. The Diggs+Allen political marriage had obviously fractured over the years. Time to let Josh lead the ticket in this election cycle. I like Kincaid as a potential WR1a, with Samuel as WR1b, and some weekly blend of a 1st rd rookie WR, Shakir, and Cook as WR3s, depending on the matchups and tendencies. 

     

    KC has won b2b championships with Kelce as WR1 and a mix of WRs and RBs filling roles behind him. I like the Bills going for something similar but with a more consistent and dangerous and multiple run game to boot. Gotta have multiple solutions to every problem NFL defensive coordinators throw out you in a given season. 


    im fine with the move but I don’t look at dead cap as additional money like you suggest. It is however not the same as if he were here…because he isn’t here. We are paying for a player that isn’t here and we have to fill that position now. Hopefully that’s with a stud from the draft. Hopefully also it’s the right type of receiver. Again, I’m fine with the move but that’s how I look at it because that’s how it actually is.

    54 million in dead money this year, nice job Brandon.

     

    It was a nice job by Beane. He built a team that competed for the superbowl for a few years.  It should have been able to get there but they blew the opportunity.  Now it's a reset reload year to try and do it for the next few.

    The comment he made about Josh yesterday was enough for me.

     

    I missed the comment.  What was it?

  9. Ooof.  Not sure I like this one.  Our O line was pretty damn good last season for the first time in Allens career really.  Now they are going to mess with two positions of it?  Morse is a good center.  Last time I seen him go out it cost us games.  Is what it is I guess.

  10. I knew this day would happen eventually but I am still sad.  Poyer and Hyde were dogs out there and gave it their all every game.  Going to miss this duo.  Some of my favorite Bills ever. Wish they could have gone to the show while they were here.  Would have been amazing.

    Also of interest to me: The Chiefs players giving their team owner an F-.

    F- !!!

    Did the Hunt family personally slap the players' wives? Like...F- is BAD, man.

     

    I just read an article that they were supposedly promised new locker rooms after last years SB and all they got was new chairs.  The excuse was they didnt have time to do anything because they played in the SB.
