If you believe the rumors, they have been trying to sell the Sabres for about 9 months now.Isn't what is happening the exact opposite of what that guy tweeted?

I think the Texans game will be early in the year. Week 2 is my guess.

The Bills have signed veteran offensive lineman La'el Collins to a one-year deal with a cap hit of $1,580,000.
We now have more details about those contract terms thanks to Over The Cap. https://overthecap.com/player/lael-collins/4105
This is simply a one year deal for $1.58 mllion, with $1.21 million guaranteed and a $290,000 signing bonus. There are up to $5M in incentives that will only apply to the 2025 salary cap (not the 2024 cap) if Collins achieves specific starts, snap counts & games played milestones.

Awesome thank you. The details are important. That's a nice contract for the Bills.

Did the details for Collins contract ever get released? I know it was up to $6M, which is certainly not backup money.

Think there is anything to talk about?

That is not even remotely close to what I would trade Allen for. Add in several additional first round picks plus DJ Moore plus Jaylen Johnson and then we can start talking.

What a hilarious way for the playoff race to end

So we'll be staying at 28 and taking a DE. Got it.

The more i think about it, i think we should just let the board fall to us or even trade back, get a couple extra picks and make a splash in the 2nd and 3rd (if we end up getting a 3rd round pick with trades).
I am warming up to this as well. Either a huge move to get one of the top 3, or trade back. There are so many good WRs in this draft, really good prospects are going to end up falling to early-mid second round.

I doubt Latu falling to the second round is actually realistic but if he does Bills should make a move up to take him. We need a starting DE and he'd be our best shot to get one past round 1. Worth the risk.

So the curse is over right? We can win the Superbowl now?

I could make peace with trading away next year's 1st knowing that we will likely have a high 2nd rounder by way of Minnesota/Houston, but giving away this year's 2nd is a bridge too far IMO. Having just one pick in the top 125 of a good draft class would be disappointing. And I love Nabers, he's my favorite Bills fit in the class, I just don't think we can afford to give away so many resources considering we just jettisoned a bunch of starters. Draft two WRs in the top 50 and there is still a good chance one of them becomes a superstar, and we can easily pull that off if we maneuver around the board.
One option I've considered for a trade up (but I don't think Beane would) is using Spencer Brown like we used Cordy Glenn in 2018. He's entering a contract year and personally I think he will price himself out of Buffalo - when you have a franchise QB contract you can't pay a RT top of the market money. Getting good draft value back for him one year before he walks in FA would make sense.
The Steelers would make sense for that idea. They probably want to move Broderick Jones to LT. Going from #28 to #20 in exchange for Spencer Brown would be the equivalent of getting pick #77 for him which I think is fair. Maybe we can also finagle a pick swap as part of the deal, their #98 for our #128. In that scenario the total trade value would be equivalent to us getting pick #65 for Spencer Brown. For a young RT on the rise that feels like the right value.
If we are at pick #20 we could trade up to #6 with the Giants without giving away exorbitant draft capital. Probably our 1st next year with maybe our newly obtained 3rd this year. I think 4 QBs will end up coming off the board before any other position, so at #6 we would have 2 to choose from out of Harrison, Nabers, and Odunze. We'd still have our 2nd rounder and 7 picks on day three. Heading into 2025 we'd have no 1st but two 2nds, a typical complement of picks after that, and some comp picks coming too.
I talked myself into this. At the expense of a starting RT and a future 1st rounder we could come away with an elite WR1.
My first thought when they signed Collins was Brown could be getting moved. I doubt they do it, and wouldn't love having new starters at 3 spots on the OL, but I wouldn't be shocked given his contract situation.

His contract is pretty brutal. We don't have much of a choice other than to hope he gets right.
-
Is Seattle in cap trouble? Why would they be looking to trade him?
-
I see no world where Nabers falls to 7.
4 5 and 6 all have massive needs at WR and Nabers and MH are elite prospects.
One of them will trade down with a team moving up for McCarthy. The other two will take MH and Nabers.

After seeing the reworked contract this is a wild trade for Houston. Not in a good way. Not sure what they are thinking.

Sounds like a vet mini deal with massive incentives. Sounds like very little risk with potential nice returns.
Where are you seeing that it is a vet minimum deal?

I'd guess the base is 3.5 mil and the 6.25 is based on playing time
Hope so.
I see some our suggesting him starting at G. The contract would make more sense then. But has he played guard before?
-
Contract details will be key here.....up to $6.25M sounds insane.
I wonder if trading Brown is in play....I highly doubt it, but he is going into the final year of his deal. That contract just seems absurd for a depth tackle. But again hopefully the base salary is a lot less than what is being reported.

Pegulas selling 25% of the Bills, per Tim Graham
in The Stadium Wall

Great point and seems highly likely. Terry liquidating a piece of the team to help cover costs, and also looking for someone to run things and be more hands on.
We have to hope that Pegula will only look to bring in people committed to keeping the bills in Buffalo.
