Chase Claypool is a high-profile WR most fans know, I swear he was signed for both a comp body and to placate some of these WR-crazed Bills fans.
-
They kept saying he played two sports for several years in college, what as the other sport?
-
He is a hybrid of Michael Jasper (massive and impressive speed) and Christian Wade (rugby).
Neither one worked out so I am not expecting much.
Was it a risk-adjusted good gamble, sure why not, it will be fun to watch his progress (or lack thereof).

I mean did our aging safeties not stand out to anyone in that game? Lol Klein also got absolutely victimized. this defense doesn’t matter mantra is getting a little tired seeing as the chiefs won with defense all year
I couldn't agree more, it has been a fairly constant take here the last few years, defense doesn't matter, it is an offensive game.....the idiocy of that is amazing.

Wowzer, you have the OPPOSITE of grade inflation on all of these guys.
I think ALL of the QBs you mentioned go in Rd 1. I thought you would mention Caleb Williams and his mental stability and prowess to be a leader. His crying episode with his mom is a serious red flag to me.

I wonder how many teams are owned 100% by a single person/family and how many have investors. I think investors are a fairly common thing, and they have nothing but the best legal and financial advisors. This isn’t like us buying a vacation home with my sister-in-law. You can do your billionaire buddy a favor by letting him inside.
Yes I thought it was exactly like buying a vacation home with your sister-in-law.
Amazingly I figured out they would get great legal/financial advice but things change.
Buying a minority interest in a private company is fraught with hidden dangers.
What if the Feds/State want to start a wealth tax on unrealized capital gains, just like they have been angling for years to go after hedge Funds. The govt agency could claim the "value" went up X million in one year and demand a cash tax payment. IMO NYS and probably California are the two riskiest states for something like that. Oversimplifying it but those are just some of the risks with minority positions in a private company.

Not a bad idea, how many Bill fans would buy stock in the Bills just to say they own some. That is if the NFL owners would allow it a la Green Bay but I doubt it.

Man.....it's like buying 25% of a money printing press. Could only dream of an opportunity like this. Someone is going to get the opportunity of a lifetime here. Good for them.
Buying a minority position in a private company, yeah good luck with that. Depending upon how it is structured you are totally at the whim of the Pegulas, they dont want to distribute profits/cash flow, your 25% is worthless until they decide to sell out or offer you to sell you an incremental 26% for a controlling interest.

That was my thought. Some Arena League, MAC lookin jerseys.
Also...the "5280" on the helmet is NOT great
What is 5280, "Mile High", yeah, not a fan of that or the new uniform.

I don't think it's any more nuts than our expectations were last year.
All we need is a ticket to the playoffs, for the defense to show up, and for Josh to play like Josh
The rest will sort itself out - and losing Diggs really doesn't impact the feasibility of winning it all in 2024
IS that all we need, a ticket to the playoffs, defense shows up and Josh top play like Josh. Yes it is nice to be optimistic.

Allen 100% gave his blessing.
Diggs doesn't force his way out if he and Allen are on good terms and Beane doesn't trade Diggs in this way if Allen is against it.
I look forward to seeing Allen make a jump this year being free of what has clearly become a tense relationship over the past year or so. And Beane knows he better make it so Allen is able to make that jump.
Didnt we already use the " Allen will make a jump this year" last year when he dumped his girlfriend? I hope you are right.

The Texans are being overrated.
I said it yesterday - people should check their schedule last season. They didn't beat many good teams. They'll have a 1st place schedule this year, and won't catch teams by surprise like they did in '23.
Not that they won't be in contention, but they haven't proven much to me yet.
Texans are better than the Bills right now, much better position financially because they have a rookie QB contract, added Joe Mixon at RB and plenty of future draft capital. They have a coach a lot of players want to play for Demeco Ryans and a state with no income tax. I dont think they are being over rated at all. It is a team that will be a Super Bowl contender for years, they have leapfrogged the Bills imo.

He will be 31 in November. Most would consider 2024 his “age 31 season”. For example, Spotrac does.
I dont care what Sportac, he is 30, simple fact and wont be 31 until very latte in November but if yoo want to claim he is 31 go for it.

With the information at hand, I graded an A.
The 2024 season is about arranging the team's contracts so that they can spend money on the teams that will be on the field in the new stadium.
Moving an expensive, long term contract for a 31 year old player, when presented with an opportunity to do so, is a component of that strategy.
He is only 30.

What are you talking about?!?........we got rid of an aging self-centered WR......seems like a fairly decent position to be in.
Do you even follow football?
No, apparently he/she doesnt even follow football since he doesn't agree with you.

A because I think behind the scenes Diggs has been just as much of a cancer as he was in Minnesota (as I’ve said I suspected for about a year now) AND he had a sharp decline in production. A day 2 pick from a bad Minnesota team is an absolute W.
The extension gets an F-, the trade gets an A.
We as fans dont really have any solid evidence of him being a cancer but that is what is going to be gradually leaked out by OBD that was in fact.

This is up there with the Daryle Lamonica for Tom Flores trade, epic fail.

Woody doesn't want to admit that drafting Wilson was a mistake like drafting Darnold in 2018, Sanchez in 2009 and then giving him an extension, and signing Favre in 2008. People might begin to think that he's the problem with the Jests since he's been the owner since 2000 with a succession of GMs.
Interesting.
I actually think the Favre decision was solid risk adjusted gamble.
I wonder what the Jet Blowhard Greenberg will say about all this.

I don't think Wilson would've ever been good on any team. He should focus on what's next outside the NFL. Just my 2 cents.
His attitude at the end of last season was embarrassing, wasnt very smart and really ruined any NFL future. Had he just been quiet it would have saved him a lot of $ and anguish.

No surprises except for maybe Ghana, that is not much of a market.

Actually 3rd stringer now if he remains on the team behind Rodgers and Taylor.
Agreed.
Taylor is one of the NFL's best backup QBs.

It legit had nothing to do with it. It’s caused a huge uproar in the city. He could rot in jail as far as I’m concerned. Britt actually served more time than average for his crime which is why he was on the list of commutations. No politician is stupid enough to hurt his own aspirations like this intentionally. He’s not a KC guy in any way, shape, or form. No chance he’s doing favors for the Chiefs.
So then the victim's family is lying, he isn't a Chiefa fan, not a season ticket holder, didn't go to the Parade and doesn't have a Chiefs tattoo? They made all that up? Do I have that straight?

He will be ok, just a ju-jitsu class away from being invincible just like Tua!
Please spare us the sanctimonious, self-righteous lecture.
