Expected and Needed for managing the roster this year….

Running g backs have shorter careers than wrs. Teams use analytics in many ways including to decide who to pay and who not to pay based on data. Can pay for different positions get out of whack? Yes I think so with the one upmanship of contracts there are more opportunities for WRs to get paid because there are more of them. Each one bumps the market. You would think rarity should be valuable but not always.

I acknowledged his playoff success. However at the end of the day champions are graded on championships. People will say what they say until the bills get it done. That is the one and only way to shut them up.

Ok. Understand your position. But realize people will use similar logic to always put Mahomes above Josh regarding playoffs and clutchness. 0-4 vs chiefs is historic. While I think it is not correct and I know you do too regarding josh he has had the ball at the end of the last two playoff games needing to score and has gotten 0. That is what gets remembered. Josh can process better….i think I agree but Lamar has come a long way and when you look at numbers he is outstanding in terms of td% int%, both above josh. I like Josh better but it is not crazy for people to pick Lamar for something like a top 100. Also not crazy to pick Josh over Lamar. Lamar has been bad in the playoffs with turnovers and does not get dinged for it. While Josh had turnover issues in the regular season and is historically good in the playoffs yet people still use that narrative.

What is your reasoning for saying that?

I know what you are saying but they did also convert one. Barely

If he is healthy he is a great player. And he is not quite as weird as Charles Hayley.

Yes I believe it to be true, all teams have injuries. Pulling Kline from vacation was an exceptional case, so I will acknowledge that. However the original post I quoted was saying "this one time" it came across as injuries all the time. All teams have injuries they deal with, you don't remember the teams that overcome them. Even in the Kline game, if Dawkins holds his block the Bills go up by 4 late in the 4th or at a minimum if our kicker can hit a 40 yarder the game is tied. Great teams make the plays that matter down the stretch, that to me is what this team lacks. They don't have the killer instinct in the critical playoff games. Injuries are just an excuse in my opinion.

Aame is true for teams that get it done. No one remembers their injuries either.

Definitely the best part

Miyagi no wear his glasses

It is though. Practice squad guys are free agents. Any team can sign these guys to their roster and if they would start that would happen.

I think you read into what I wrote a little

People are overreacting to this IMO. I bet if Bishop and Rapp are healthy all year then Poyer never sniffs a game day jersey. He has benefit to help mentor those guys and that is part of why he is here. But their availability has not been great so if he gets up to speed and the Bills go down a couple safeties, maybe he plays in a pinch.

I mean that is true with Elam, basically he was a bust. But I think you have your jump to conclusions mat out regarding Hairston. Elam played in game one as a rookie. So Hairston sprained his knee...I dont get how you evaluate those two as the same thing at this point in time.

I am good with the cuts they made....a few guys I was pulling for got cut but that was expected.

I love it but man the Bills are driving what they show and there is way less access to the real "process" that made Hard Knocks great in its early seasons, I think this is the most watered down version there has been. If I was a fan of a random team, no way I would be able to watch this.

Yeah its a done deal from the reporting assume he clears which he probably will. Interesting to see what you can find even in the summer when everyone's 90 man rosters are filled.

Are you saying he only played special teams in college? Because he played a lot of defense for the Bills in Preseason. Maybe you are mixing up who this is?

I think this is the toughest and most important game on the schedule. Chiefs and Eagles come later but I think the Ravens are the best team in the AFC even above the Chiefs. If the Bills get this one they could have a historic start to the season.

In order to be up to the task he needs guys who can fill the roles, every team has guys whose primary position is to play special teams, it sounds like you don't value that. It is the way it is, they are not going to keep 8 WR's who cant play teams.

I wasn't gonna speak that into existence..........we will all blame you forever if it happens.

Someone could go to ir.

The other one.
