That would for sure be disappointing. I agree.

It is never, ever likely for any team. Not ever. Even the teams with the highest odds at the start of each year have a far less than likely chance of getting to the Superbowl.

Have you enjoyed the other aspects of Bills success (regular season and post season winning) at all, or do you not care about that at all? Like, in the moment when those things are happening, do you not derive any satisfaction from it? You just immediately tell yourself it doesn't matter unless they win a Superbowl at the end? Just seeking to understand.

The most money hungry? In what way? Free agency is all about teams paying players to play for them. The entire point of it is money.

All the playoff wins, which are many, have been great as well.

Thr last 5 years have been awesome, entertaining, exciting Bills football. They haven't quite gotten to the big game yet. I hope they do. It has been a great ride so far. Try enjoying it instead of focusing on the negatives.

It starts at the same time for every team. They don't let the west coast start first, haha.

Maybe that gets you a bit of a discount if you do it now.

I'm an old soul, I guess.

Hey, I'm 35 and I feel pretty good! Allen will be able to play until he is 38 at least. It isn't the 90's anymore. QBs get protected and it has seriously extended their careers. Aaron Rodgers used to run around quite a bit and was still doing that in his late 30s. But he was good at avoiding contact. Allen will have to take that approach when he is a bit older.

Last year was much different. They were eating the Diggs contract, plus they ate some of Allen's by not restructuring all of the money they could have with him. Plus others. This season, they have a lot more levers to pull. They have the ability to sign anyone they want. They might not do it, but they have the flexibility if they want to, unlike last year due to the dead cap they had to deal with.

Bobby Brown is one of his signings. Marino has been the one talking him up.

The needs are defensive line, CB, and WR, which is what he took. And secondary needs would be safety and potentially RB if Cook walks. So, it seems like he was drafting according to needs to me. I think Sweat would be a great signing. He is really good. He'll be overpaid, though, but that is the nature of free agency. I bet he gets more like 25 million aav, though.

He traded up a couple of times.

If you don't re-sign Morris or Gilliam, you'll be signing others just like them for about the same money, so you might as well bring them back since they are already effective in what they do in this system. And they play special teams as well.

It'll probably be Mike White this year. I try to focus my energy on starters. I don't allow myself to get too worked up about backups. That's just me.

Wow. That's a lot of money.

Brown has the athleticism and burst to rush the passer, though. He just hasn't had the opportunity as much the way he was used by the Rams. Regardless, the Bills will continue to rotate guys and play packages situationally, I'm sure.

We need a 1 Tech. Joe Marino is high on Bobby Brown from the Rams. 24 years old. 6'4" and 330 lbs. 9.82 RAS score, so very explosive and athletic for his size. He is a good run defender and would have more opportunity to penetrate and rush the passer in our scheme. You beat me to it.

Good. I didn't want him. Really? He is just a guy. Way more hype than he is worth, in my opinion.

It's called inflation and supply chain issues.

He went to retrieve the kicking ball and the guy thought he was standing over him taunting, so he got in his face.

No, it isn't an overpay. In fact, he could probably get more from another team. But I'm frustrated with our defensive line and want some changes. Rousseau is not an elite pass rusher. He would be great if we had an elite guy opposite him. Let's hope we get that done somehow.

I was hoping for under 20, but this is fair. It is the guaranteed money that really matters.

Good post. Saves me from doing the leg work. Fans worrying about the cap this year aren't aware of all the levers Beane can pull.
