I think there is enough smoke that says they are at least talking...they are "close", who knows.....Beane needs to always do what he thinks is right, not just appease fans....given what Cook brings to the table (good and not so good) and his output the last two years and the position of RB I understand the dilemma from both ends. His agent is doing his job, Beane is doing his, they don't HAVE to agree. This is negations, I believe it will likely get resolved. They could give him some void money next year without an extension. Diggs got an extra million or two a couple times in training camp. I think something gets done, it's a game of poker, right now Cook has the cards....when you get closer to the regular season and he stands to lose 1/17 of 5.2 million each week, it will be the Bills who have more leverage.....just let it play out.

But Josh Allen will be on the roster in the future, probably another 10 years-ish

Show up practice and be quiet…rhetorical question. That is not how I think about it but many others think they just expect him to play under his deal. I see both sides and not sure there is an easy solution. The bills could just stare him down and call his bluff. Is he going to give up game checks? He stands to make more in game checks this year than he has in his first three years which he has earned with salary escalators for his play time.

So probably confirms the bills asked cook to participate in camp and they would negotiate. Sounds like things are not progressing.

He has played 33 of the last 34 games.

I have never waivered in my belief he will work out. I think he has the brains to do what McDermott and Babbich want and he has better athletic ability than our other safeties. I am very optimistic the safety play will improve this year.

Wanna play on the WR choochoo train?

Don’t really care but he has to be an upgrade over gore

Sure, we are probably more likely to see White start the season. Given the alternative, a couple weeks of missed practice was the best possible outcome here. Assuming his talent is there, it does not mean we wont be playing much this year compared to if this did not happen. I think you are blowing it a little out of proportion.

There just has to be more than he kissed a guys head in Vegas....and it is not hard to imagine given his background. He is a great player, you would think he could just not do it anymore given the media blowups.....but nope. Strange dude

He is if you want a Mack Hollins replacement.....I think we want more than that. Garbage take....there is a large spectrum of NFL talent at any position.....yes he is not at the top and never will be bt that does not make him "not an NFL talent"

They are waiting for the perfect player.

I thought his handling of the WR train was a little over the top.....but I completely agree with his position which is based on actual facts and logic rather than guys on the radio who want to play with their WR train toy because it sounds cool. I think Beane is very good at his job, anytime your work is on public display people will have issues and things get blown out of proportion.

All the evidence seems to suggest Allen was their pick....

I mean the Raiders had a reason for waiving him and voiding his money....we don't know what that is. He is a great player....if he did not take his work serious on the foot injury it could be an indication regarding his commitment after he got the bag. It happens....football is hard on the body. The details are not yet public so it is hard to really judge.

Like Charles Hayley weird?

Wax on

NFL money is nuts

hopefully they leave it alone....ESPN sucks!

This story is so funny. I love the one with them on splash mountain, looks like it could have been even during the big drop lol.

This thread title is sensational media nonsense. It was a swap of picks trade, not a Worthy trade. Why dont we talk more about the "Mahomes trade"

I will go one step further find you QB and build around them, period, if you arn't going to have a QB, you suck, period! You can pay all the CB's, WR's or OL you want.

When it opens people are gonna talk/complain about how steep it is......most people dont go to other stadiums and all the new ones are steep like this. You can see it in some of the mages/movies. A few people will need one less beer, LOL

Probably because you have a vested interest in those outcomes?

Cant wait to watch! There are definitely moments when the Bills d is warm butter.
