Do people still use blue sky? Literally the only person I ever hear reference it is that dude from Disguised Coverage on Cover 1.

You’re argument is falling on deaf ears. It’s not breaking through because nobody truly expected him to fix these things on Day 1, despite his constant grandiose statements. We’re 3 weeks in and yall sound so ridiculous whining about prices when he’s barely been in office a month, this metric is a lag indicator, not a lead … and your side spent years gaslighting the public on “nothing to see here” re: the economy. So you’ll flail on nonsense like your random Haitian comment that nobody cares about or doubling down on a 90/10 issue in trans/womens sports. Please… go on. You’re lost in the wilderness and stand for nothing but niche issues and incessant whining.

Yea, meme coins are a grift. Do you know why I don’t care? Because dumb people buy them and if that’s what they want to do. So be it. Do you know why I also don’t care.. Because you don’t have this same energy for Pelosi & co with insider trading. Another reason I don’t care.. You have nothing to say about rando left wing organizations led by progressive leaders receiving 2B grants of taxpayer money, re Stacey Abrams. Another reason I don’t care.. you want to eternally fund a war in Ukraine under the guise of freedom as innocent Ukrainian and Russian men are fed to the wood chipper. All with our tax dollars, so you can feel morally superior. So yea.. Trump meme coins.. don’t lecture me on that when the default Dem position so far, 3 weeks in, is to continue to pour money into a forever war and defend government waste, abuse and fraud.

What do you think are good approval ratings? Gone are the days of anything approaching 60% Were a 50/50 nation and most of each respective 50 is dug in… so much so, that your side is defending corruption and opposing government transparency.

For any voter that has remorse.. and I promise you that it’s not many.. there’s a reluctant Trump voter like myself that thinks he’s absolutely ****ing amazing so far.

The counter to this is that he was barely used as much more than a receiving back at UGA and has been in a timeshare here. The tread on his tires is about as low as it could be for a RB entering Year 4 that is regarded as well as Cook is. That said.. if we can get a Day 2 Pick this year, I’d trade him. We need DL, WR and Secondary. Cook is a luxury that if we’re too far off on a number with, isn’t worth the hassle.

Let’s see what truly happened here, but if true…

Weird how Trump has the best approval ratings he’s ever had but random one-offs (that may or may not actually be Trump voters) are given a platform to express “remorse”… Funny how these stories get put out there by the usual suspects.

I agree on Daniels, but as pointed out above.. people were literally saying this about Stroud and he turned into a pumpkin this year.

I don't understand cutting Jones for that little of savings. Just get a true 1T in here and have Jones be the rotation guy.

I have to remind myself that I started thinking Keon had Tee Higgins potential before the injury.. He truly was showing promise. Post-injury, just like Carter, he was downright awful. One thing is for sure, he needs to work on route running and we need to diversify his route tree. Having him run go routes with the corner having zero concern of him going anywhere else but down the sideline isn't going to lead too much of anything worthwhile.

1) We have woefully underinvested in the position outside Ed Oliver and Daquan Jones (who we gave one too many contracts too). 2) McDermott wants gap shooting/penetration style defense which requires more agile (typically smaller) DT's, which in turn also exposes our undersized linebackers and nickel corner to more punishment. It seems to be a flawed scheme that has also been woefully underinvested in.

I think I'm getting more to the place where I just want him traded for a Day 2 pick and not pay him at all, tbh. It's not about not paying Cook.. it's about using that money elsewhere. I'd rather put 10-15M towards a DL piece or outside WR and roll with Davis, Johnson and a rookie RB.

Too early to tell, but what we do know is that we need more production out of rookies. It shouldn't take 2-3 years before rookie contract guys start making contributions. Sure, some will take time.. but too often, under Beane's FO, this is the expectation and we can't keep getting next to nothing in years 1-2 from rounds 1-3 picks. Cole Bishop dealt with injuries, but he was always the high upside player, but we won't know until next year because this staff will almost always play a limited guy like Damar Hamlin over the low floor/high ceiling young guy. Keon and Carter... can't have this. Two completely useless players after both showing some promise before getting injured.

Where did I say Hurts is elite? Devonta Smith is better than any WR we have.

If Cook was Barkley, I'd be more open to this. He's not. He's very good. And we keep paying very good players while Philly pays elite players in Barkley, Brown, Smith etc.. Which, along with drafting extremely well, is why they win Super Bowls.

Id rather let Shakir and Benford walk, but I get what you’re saying. I just think a dominant DL is so much more important than a good, not great slot or good, not great corner. I also trust us to find another Shakir and Benford. Coleman might even be better suited to play inside if he can’t develop his route running and contested catch ability.

I highly doubt we’re getting both Garrett and DK… But if we gave up a 2nd and 4th for DK and then packaged a 1, 2 and next years 1 for Garrett, we’d have that Rams Draft from years ago when we don’t get on the board until Day 3. IF we knew we had that locked down, I’d move Cook for a Day 2 pick to use on a DT. I’d wait on any contract negotiations until after the season, with the hope Rousseau is a monster with a 1A across him… extend him. Let Benford walk and see where we land on negotiations with Shakir/Bernard. Thats a team built to dominate this coming year before they have to revamp their linebackers & secondary minus our RD1 pick. Load up on DB’s and LB’s on Day 3 and get them ready for ‘27.

Not really a fair comment.. Ray Davis was used, a lot, end of game grind the clock out against heavy boxes.

I’d trade Cook for a 2nd Round Pick asap, if it’s offered. If we’re being offered a 3rd.. it’s tough.. On one hand, we could use him next year and get a comp pick for him the following year. On the other hand, he knows that and may not want to play without a contract. I’d probably pull the trigger on a middle 3rd tbh. Our biggest focus this offseason needs to be fixing the Defense and finding Josh reliable down the field threats to open things up for our slot guys and tight ends. Our running game engine is JA’s dual threat ability and our OL.. We relied on Davis for one game and he was a star…

Just saying — Bills paying Benford 20M+ while the Chiefs let guys like Ward and Snead walk and keep getting to Super Bowls wouldn’t be lost on me…

Bernard & Cook are the only players I’m comfortable with at that AAV. Dont love Bernard, mainly due to his size and fact he gets banged up a lot, but at that AAV, with Milano likely only here another year or two, I’m good with it. Good player, just small. Dont really know what to make of Shakir’s valuation. Hes very good but also very limited in terms of vertical ability. Benford for me is a no. He’s good, not great and has been hurt every postseason he’s been a pro. I think Buffalo will extend him, but at that number, I wouldn’t.

Heartbreaking stories from the UK…

Johnson likely isn’t going to be dirt cheap again. So you want the Bills to invest say 15M per in Cook, plus 4-6M per for Johnson and rotate in our recent 4th RD Pick as depth… Thats so much investment at the RB spot, on a team where the RB’s have the advantage of an elite OL and Josh Allen….
