259-35 total yards lmao

Bagent is way better than either of our backups

Calling it right now we're shutting out the Ravens in week 1

He looks like one of the worst players on the field when it's all backups. That should tell you a lot

It's like the number switch to #23 has completely ruined him. Dane was a solid player for us previously

You should be used to it

Was just thinking the same thing

He was definitely slow reading. Really sucks that he's missed so much development time both years

To be fair, that's a tough matchup for a safety one on one against a slot

Bears fans probably think they're going to the Super Bowl. I hate preseason lol

Holy sheet Edelman is terrible already

Yep the Bills will win the toss, defer, and give up a 9 minute field goal drive

Unfortunately he is a starting safety for us

I don't understand why it has to be considered "hate" to believe that a football player is not good enough to justify his role. It's nothing personal, Damar seems like a great guy. But the fact of the matter is he is a liability on defense if counted on to play consistent snaps. To me that is not passable.

He's pretty bad man. Sure he knows the defense, but Hamlin is at such a disadvantage out there because of his extreme athletic limitations. I still think back to that pick he had in Week 3 against the Jags - I've literally never seen an NFL player look he was running with cement shoes until that INT run back. It happened again in this past weekend's game where the Giants' running back just blew past him for a long gainer down the sideline. You can justify him being on the roster, but there is no way he should ever see significant time on the field. Hamlin is barely a replacement level player. And you could easily make the argument that Hamlin severely hindered our chances in the AFC Championship game when he kamikazed our #1 CB coming off a concussion, thereby forcing Elam in the game, and then getting roasted repeatedly himself by the Chiefs receivers.

I don't disagree with that. He did have an outstanding year. And it's totally appropriate to consider him one of the Elite 4 - I'm just saying that I believe him to be the clear #4 of that group

True, but he also is guilty of holding the ball too long at times. The guy takes a significantly higher amount of sacks relative to the other 3. I feel like Burrow lives off the Bengals 2021 Super Bowl run which was predominantly a result of their defense. His numbers were pedestrian, and I don't care how weak your offensive line is - you can't take 9 sacks in a playoff game like he did against the Titans that year and get away with it, unless your defense is balling out.

To me the most honest ranking includes a) Recognition that Josh/Lamar/Mahomes are the top 3 QBs regardless of order AND b) Burrow is the distant #4 BUT still clearly better than anyone in the league other than the big 3

None, or as little as possible. 2-3 series apiece for starting offense and defense in the Bears game and then bubble wrap them

I don't quite see it that way. Torrance was not bad last year but if there was a weak link on the starting five he was it. And I realize Van Pran Granger is in the picture but he is a completely unproven entity at this point.

If this is how everything played out I'd be good. 12-13 mil is steep for Cook but on the high end of reasonable as he is such an important piece for our offense. I like Ray Davis as much as anyone but he does not bring the explosive element of Jimbo. McGovern is a priority, and Torrance will likely take precedence over Edwards.

That's too rich for my blood. As good as Parsons is, he can go stretches where he disappears and gets handled by guys he should dominate. The Bills would have a large chunk of money tied up in one position and compromised draft capital at a time when they're already paying the franchise QB a large sum of money. Not a good recipe imo

McLaurin can run a full route tree and has produced with garbage at qb and no other weapons around him. Metcalf is a one trick pony who played with near prime Russell Wilson and was complemented by a solid number 2 option in Lockett.

33 mil would put him 4th after Chase, Jefferson, and Lamb. He would be tied with Metcalf in AAS who he is clearly superior to. And he would be above Brown (Det), Brown (Phi), Aiyuk, and Higgins - 2 of which is he is better than and 2 of which he isn't. It is a perfectly reasonable request.

He's vastly underpaid imo. I don't think he is a malcontent - would you be knocking down the doors for a big contract with the trash he played with early in his career? Now he sees an opportunity to win with Daniels and cash in at the same time, which is richly deserved based off his performance.
