All those dick mentions and not an honorable nod to Jauron. Odd.😂

When I see an age discrepancy like this it makes me think that the dude is like my boss is with my paycheck. He'd go lower if it wasn't illegal.

Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis and 2 dozen wings. Best I'll get are the wings and Black Swan on DVD with extended scenes.

Well, he has the Cowboys hostage, really. He has all the power in any renegotiated deal with them at this time, so it's really a smart move to (reportedly) ask for way over value in order to maximize what he sees. Dallas won't pay it and he'll be a FA most likely and (even though I don't feel he's worth it) will likely reset the QB market in FA. He's in a no lose situation here. Smart business.

Here's the way I think about this topic. There's OJ Simpson. And then there's RB#32. Kind of like in an old Madden game when someone wouldn't grant their name and they just got that generic position/number name. OJ Simpson is on my Mt. SHUSHmore. RB#32 is on my Mt. Rushmore.

We have all seen and many have debated who would be the 4 faces of the Buffalo Bills in a Mt. Rushmore of the team. I want to take the conversation in the opposite direction. If you were to make a Mt. Rushmore that featured your 4 least favorite all time members of the Bills franchise...who would they be and why? Was it their play on the field? Their personality rub you the wrong way? Bad experience meeting them in person? I'll add mine a little later as I don't want to influence the initial responses.

When the war against machines starts...I'm attacking toasters with all my might. Smug little machines.

Better question would be might he crack the top 10? Based on his only having 1 season of good performance....I'd say no.

Keon Coleman's 40 is so slow that Matt Haack could punt the ball three times in the time it takes him to finish it

Some really good ones mentioned. Let me add Rasul Douglas to that list. When he was traded to us players on the Packers raved about his leadership.

I do. I don't think we trade for anyone unless it's a lower roster type player for player deal. But I can see him moving an OL guy for a 2026 6th or something. I think the next trade activity we would see from Beane would be near the deadline to cover for injuries or if a position group was flat out not working out

All jokes aside, what a horrible choice. Guy didn't even play most of the year last year. Honestly, I would have liked to see Brock Purdy. That would have been cool to see him from Mr. Irrelevant to Madden cover in a few short seasons.

I hear he and AJ Klein are sharing a Winnabego out in the parking lot. From what I understand its going to make one HECK of an episode of the mid season Hard Knocks.

I agree, I would love to see that. If SVPG is the goods, I believe Dawkins-McGovern-SVPG-Torrence-Brown would be our best 5 on the OL. Problem is I'm thinking we as fans see it being more of a battle than it really is going to be. And this isn't a "McD doesn't play rookies" comment...but it's really rare for any 5th rounder to come in and unseat a vet so quickly in their rookie year. I think ultimately, we get 1 season of McGovern at C and then they let the battle hit next year (may change due to injury). But I'm looking forward to seeing how it actually plays out. I do think SVPG's best path to start this year may be the result of injury. If McGovern misses time or has to slide to guard to cover an injury and the rookie gets on the field I think he plays well enough to make it harder to take him off and put him back to the bench.

I think Elam is going to surprise a lot of people this year. If he's healthy I expect him to lock down the #3 outside CB role at MINIMUM. Which is important because Benford has shown he gets banged up a bit. But I really think the "shock" of camp is going to be Elam winning CB2 role and Benford dropping to CB3.

Tis be that time of year. Out with the old and in with the new. With new players come competition. There are several camp battles that are important and should occupy a good amount of talk over the summer. Some of them will be real battles that will determine who is still here week 1...and some will be the low roster message board darlings that fans think have a shot...but in reality are just trying to cling to a bottom roster/PS spot. The ones I'm watching closely : 1. IOL: While we see what the pieces are we have no idea how this puzzle comes together. It seems to be Edwards at LG and McGovern at C for this year. But can someone swoop in and take one of those spots? Who's left standing for depth? 2. Safety: Buffalo brought back Rapp and went out and signed Mike Edwards. Then drafted Bishop. And the potential of a Hyde return is lurking. But who earns those starting spots, who is that 3rd safety and do any of them earn the weekly 100% of the snaps most games that Hyde/Poyer had in years past? 3. PUNTER: One has already fallen as Haack is gone. But coming off a season that had some struggles Sam Martin shouldn't be locked in. He'll have to fend off UDFA Jack Browning, who the Bills signed. Personally, I'm rooting for Browning as he's the cheaper option that can handle kicking duties if needed during the course of a game. 4. ST/KR/PR: With the new kickoff rules in place I'm really looking forward to seeing how teams go about changing what they do here. I've already seen some articles that some teams are considering replacing their kicker on kickoffs due to the possibility of kickers being exposed to injury. There is also the thought process that it takes more than just straight line speed to return kicks now. More shifty and quick in space. So, what say you? What spots are you paying special attention to?

Steve Tasker was a plus backup WR. He could have started for a few teams back then but was too valuable on ST. Dude could play. I'd throw Don Beebe in there as a good backup player as well.

Yeah, that's low for a guy with 80 career starts a C and graded out just below middle of the pack at the position. The only thing I can think of is that he was cut by the Panthers and had offset language in that contract. Would be roughly the same as why the Steelers were able to get Russ Wilson at about the same cap hit. Not positive but it seems likely to me that's the case.

I was just looking at an article about this from earlier the off-season. Chargers had already signed Bradley Bozeman who was the starter with Carolina...and more importantly was with Baltimore during Roman's tenure there. That's their starter and he's not a bad C at all. They had also reworked Lindsey's contract in anticipation of his retirement. This is something they had well planned out and was in the works for a while. I don't believe Clapp is even a blip on their radar as they let him walk knowing what was coming.

IMO Groot's biggest detriment the past couple of years has been his knack of picking up foot/ankle injuries that aren't bad enough to make him miss any real time...but aren't well enough to see him have any pass rush impact. He starts off well enough the first few weeks and then is hampered by something. His health is a major factor. AJE has always been on the better end of the scale for his pass rushing abilities. He's gotten surprisingly good production on limited snaps. His biggest issue has always been that he is atrocious setting the edge against the run IMO. Both have the potential to really step up this year. I'd like both to take the next step for sure...but even if one can hit the next level that would be huge.

Looks like a page from a coloring book that hasn't been used yet.

I'm not sure they would be interested in him. Chargers are under new management and want to bring in "their guys". Honestly, I'd think if they trade for anyone it would more likely to be someone with ties to the Baltimore Ravens and Greg Roman.

I agree on your first 5. I think the 6th spot really comes down to ST value and who they feel can contribute there the most. Hamler has value if healthy there. Claypool played ST last year in Miami and has already both spoken and been spoken about for willingness to play teams. I think Shorter has the inside track to that spot. He's a guy that the Bills burned a pick on (a 5th, sure but still a pick) and has extensive ST experience in college. I see him locking down that 6th spot. I think MVS sticks, but the path for Claypool or Hamler (aside from injury) may just be outplaying him for his spot. If MVS 's case of the dropsies continue this TC/PS I think it opens the door. Between the 3 of them it may come down to which one overcomes their well documented short commings the most will stay. MVS- Drops/ Claypool-Effort/ Hamler-Health.

Well, the best part is in every room the center of the room is like new because he refuses to go over the middle of the floor.

They have Clapp at center and David Edwards at LG. That's cute.
