McShay - Bills pass on WR and take RB Swift in 1st.
thenorthremembers replied to PIZ's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I wish someone would pay me millions to be this wrong. Woof. -
Reagors film is fantastic but Lee Evans probably isnt a good comparison. Evans was fast but Reagor is better after the catch, and high points the ball better. He is also built a lot more compact than Evans. Reminds me a lot of Curtis Samuel from Carolina. For what its worth I like Reagor better than both Higgins and Shenault.

What would a T. White Extension look like?
thenorthremembers replied to Franchiseneedsme's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
5/79 million. Front load it with the 3 something he is due this year for a little over 19million in year one, average of 15.9 every year after. -

Greg Olsen visiting Bills, Redskins, Seahawks
thenorthremembers replied to FluffHead's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Id be ok with it. Just wonder what the contract looks like. My guess is somewhere between Delaine Walker at 8.5 and Vernon Davis at 5. Split the differnce and account for the cap that puts you at 7.1/yr. If you can get him for the Vernon contract great but when you start to talk about 7 or 8 id be out of it. -
Wife and I bought a house in August. Really wanted a house with a good yard for the kids. Every house that came up in our area in Orleans County sold the same week or even day it was listed. They went fast and were overpriced for what they were. We ended up in four bedroom, 2000sqft updated farmhouse with 1.5 acres, a new two story two car garage, pool etc. We were one of four families who looked at it same day it listed. I will never move because buying a house is hell on Earth.

How much money do you think they intend to spend on tight ends? People need to get over Hooper and Henry, Knox was a third round pick for Gods sake. -
More yards and touchdowns than Elway, Moon, Fouts, Montana, Kelly, Aikman and Warner. More wins than Eli, Bradshaw, Aikman, Moon, Kelly, Stabler and Young. Lower interception percentage than both Mannings, Marino, Warner, and Favre. Rivers was a very good to great Quarterback, one of the best to ever play. Comparing him to FItzpatrick in anyway is asinine. He was bad this year, so was his team. I think he can give a team one to two more decent years while they groom a rookie.

The guy was coming off a year where he missed 8 games, had 28 catches for 430 yards and 2 touchdowns. He played one full season in three years and liked to mope. They were never going to pay him, he didnt want to be here, so why not get what you can from him? Also productive is a very odd term to use. He is the 8th most "productive" wideout from his own draft class after being picked fourth. Below is a list of where he has ranked in Receptions, Yards, and TDs since coming into the league. The guy has been in the top 20 in the statistical category twice in his entire career. I guess you could say he is "productive" for a number three or four wideout but the truth is Bills fans just like to completely ignore reality. Getting rid of him was a wise move. He wont be in KC next year unless he takes a massive pay cut. Sammy isnt some secretly amazing player that the Bills gave up for a bag of footballs. There were plenty of reasons to move on from Sammy Watkins and I am glad they did. Year Receptions Yards Touchdowns 2014 45th 24th 35th 2015 50th 22nd 17th 2016 163rd 112th 136th 2017 106th 69th 17th 2018 98th 88th 105th 2019 68th 56th 90th

The same fair weathered posters saying Mahomes looked hurt and maybe wasnt very good around the 3rd quarter of thos game are now saying the Bills look like fools and the entire AFC may as well not bother playing games for the next 15 years. What a loser mentality. Thank God our coach and quarterback have a bit more of a backbone. Go Bills.

The cap was 188.2 million this year. It hasn't been explicitly communicated, but the NFL said on 12/11/2019, that they expected it to be between 196.8 and 201.2 Million, not 220 like you say here. That said the Bills have close to 25 million is rollover cap, so in essence you 220+ is correct. They have plenty of cap space, I never said they didnt. What I said is, after they extend the players already on the roster, and sign their own free agents, and keep a 10 million plus pool like Beane likes to do, they arent going to have the cap to spend on guys like Ngaekou, and Cooper. You guys can argue it all you want. And they can front load the contracts all they want, but eventually you have to pay the piper.

I've always given Goodell the benefit of the doubt and thought the shtick of fans booing him at the draft was annoying. However, his constant pushing to alter the game, and grow it outside of the US has gotten out of control. It completely ignores the well being of the players he pretends to care about (17 games, intense travel to different continents), and what the fans really want (better officiating, games you dont have to stay up until midnight to watch, a Super Bowl on Saturday). Everyone thinks CTE is going to be the end of football. What will really be the end of football is pushing it into markets that dont support it, while totally ripping off the ones that do. Keep Football in America, and stop trying to move it to Europe, South America, and Canada.

Its true. He also hadnt had a 100 yard game since then. Hes had one 1000 yard season in 2015 and never eclipsed 65 catches in a year. People want to believe he is a victim of circumstance, thing is when the circumstance changes and you get the same result maybe he just is what he is. We are in year six of this thing now, despite being paid well he is a low level number two wideout who produces more like a number three. He will be a cap casualty this offseason and from there who knows.

Not plus 90 million, you still have to pay the other players. Not scared for cap reasons Ive just been over through their yearly table time and time again and if you extend the players I originally said, even with cutting Kroft, Long, Yeldon and Murphy you still cant sign top level free agents and not have long term implications on who you can sign down the road. Unless you sign said free agents on two year deals. Thats an option I suppose.

Around the same time Hughes and Star are off the books for 19.5 million youll be paying Allen and Edmunda 52. If you add in Murphy for 9, Long for 4.5, Smith at 2.5, and Kroft at 6.5 thats 38.5 not counting any dead cap...deficit of 13.5 million. Alot of you are going to be gravely upset when they arent players on the 20 million dollar men.

LeSean McCoy wants to retire an Eagle
thenorthremembers replied to sunshynman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The more he opens his mouth the more I dislike him. The Bills stuck by him through a bunch of garbage while he was here. They kept him on after the cop stuff, after the girlfriend stuff and he is acting like we handcuffed him. I am sure other teams wanted him in 2018, and I am sure they were offering a conditional 7th round pick for a 30 year old guy who was averaging 3.2 yards a carry. I cant go back and look at the dead cap from 2018, but I would imagine they looked at what they would be getting back and it wasnt worth having to pay the dead cap. Going into 2019 the dead cap was much less, and rather than trade him to some crap team they cut him to give him the option to sign with whoever wanted him. Guess the Eagles didnt come calling. Rather than pay 9.5 million dollars for one guy who 979 yards in the last two years, they paid 2.75 for two guys who got them 1300 in one. He comes across like a bitter fool who doesnt realize its over. The chase for 12k isnt happening man.
