    This isn’t college football. Most of these guys that hit free agency are going to whichever team is going to pay them the most. If the dollars are close then they go with the situation they are most comfortable in.

     

     

    That’s fair, and for many players I’m sure that’s correct. For me, money would only go so far. If the dollars are close like you’ve said, with what I have to put my body through to get ready to play and then actually play the games, I’d want to know I’ve got a decent shot to win something or at least get to the playoffs. 
     

    It really was a genuine question. I’m not saying it in a snarky way like the Bills have historically been some model organization. For many years they’ve been right there in a similar boat as the Jets. I’m praying the Bills have finally turned a corner organizationally.

    While you are absolutely correct about the jets, Gase, and the dumpster fire,...
    The Big Apple is really an amazing  place to live in or visit, quite literally any type of food, fashion, bars, clubs, entertainment or any other thing you might want is likely to be found there, people from all over the world are there, and bring all the interesting things from their home lands, the best pizza I’ve ever eaten the best dim sum, the best Italian food outside of Italy, etc etc. it is hands down one of the most dynamic places on our planet. so yes The proximity to NYC is a big deal.   Oh, but there is one draw back, actually two, the New Jersey jets and giants, they masquerade as New York teams... ??

    Lol. I’m with you on the phony jersey teams.
     

    You’re correct and I wasn’t clear. Make no mistake, I understand the draw and allure of NYC. It’s a cool place to visit. Always something to do. Personally, I’d never want to live there (or anywhere near there), but I know that people do.
     

    My contention is that the Jets are a disaster and have been for some time now, so is the proximity to NYC enough to outweigh that? If I’m a ball player, I say no. With as much time as this sport requires, it’s a long miserable season if you aren’t winning. I want to go somewhere I have a chance to win. I don’t correlate winning with the jets (Bills are still fighting that stigma too). As a fan, I realize these players have outside interests, but selfishly I want my guys eating, drinking, sleeping ball all the time.

    Sooooo...... TE?

    Lol. I think he’ll be a pretty good receiver in the league. Jack of all trades, master of none. But...like others have said, is that worth a first rounder? I don’t know. If he’s Deebo part 2 I’d love that. Like Deebo, I’d feel more comfortable with him in the second. Glad they don’t pay me to screw this up. ?

  4. I read this article earlier and like others came away underwhelmed. I don’t mind the first round pick because it helps the offense, but I don’t know about prioritizing DB over WR in second. Get Josh weapons. That’s all this offseason should be about. I’d love to get Gandy-Golden though. Guy has all the measurables and a ton of potential. 
     

    Also, I get we have our own to re-sign and that won’t be cheap, but come on with those free agents. Beane said as much, so I’m not expecting the moon, but stop apologizing and excuse making about having $80M in cap room. Help Josh!

  5. Love love love the transparency on replay reviews. They have to bring this to the NFL. Wonder if they realize this will actually help the game. First of all it’ll hold Riveron and the rest of the of booth review officials accountable. Second, we’ll get to see how they went about the call. Even if it doesn’t go your way, you can at least understand how they got there. 
     

    Lastly, Pat McAfee was made for the XFL.
