    Yeah but you know if the crowd got that aware of his incentives they will not be cheering when Poona gets a sack.   It will be like losing a comp pick to them.   Once he gets to 3 we might even get a thread on TSW about shutting Poona down. 

     


    I actually think that teams want players to reach their incentives most of the time, and even get them into the game to help them get there if it’s close.

     

    Teams can develop a reputation for being helpful or hurtful in these scenarios. Players and agents pay attention to these kinds of things and it has a significant impact during free agency.

  2. I lived in Houston for a couple of years when I was a kid in the 80s. I would’ve gone to the same high school that Ed went to (Westfield), so I’ve always rooted for him a little extra. 
     

    The bills rotate their defensive lines so often, at most he gets 60% of the defensive snaps, so I don’t think he’s ever going to have a monster statistical season. Still, the numbers are a little underwhelming, especially since he rightfully gets compared to Quinnen Williams who got drafted in the same year by a divisional rival. Quinnen Williams had 12 sacks last year. 


    If Ed miraculously breaks out and has 9 1/2 sacks and 12 TFLs, the Bills couldn’t let him walk. At the very least, they’d franchise tag him, and make him play under the tag or trade him to recoup some value - at least I hope. 

     

    Maybe they secretly like Ed having to play for his contract, though I don’t think I’ve ever read any reports about him being out of shape, not working hard, or being unmotivated since he’s been with the bills. He also seems like a good teammate. 
     

    This year I’m hoping that Oliver is finally the monster he was supposed to be. Go Ed! Go Bills!

  3. I wonder if scouts would consider Kincaid a great blocker for a slot receiver. Is he as good a blocker as Cooper Kupp or Jamison Crowder or Evan Engram or THE Beas? It’s probably not fair to stack him up against tight ends when it comes to blocking.  
     

    I’m hoping that Dalton Kincaid turns into a way healthier version of George Kittle.

  4. Getting passes from Joe Burrow and Tua helps. I know Anthony Richardson got drafted high as well, but he didn’t play a whole bunch of the games that Shorter played in. 
    When kids transfer, I think it’s easier to get lost in the scouting shuffle. Brandon being definitely likes to pick players that were five star athletes coming out of high school. This absolutely fit that bill.

    I think they are going to take Darnell Washington at 27. There is not another player like him in the NFL. He mauls guys in the run game, He can give Josh extra time if either tackle is having a tough day, and just imagine him blocking for Josh on the run. Lots of 12 personnel.

    Everyone got better than the Bills  had the chance to get that running back that could put the Bills over the top and Bills management because the Pegula's are afraid of the woke culture tries to justify Lesile Frazier as a coach how much more does it take to say that Frazier can't coach so many head coaching jobs out there and no one said yeah we like Frazier not one team considered him a coach what does that tell you.

    Angry much?

    Polarizing political takes ruin every conversation these days, do we have to let it seep into our football talks too?

  7. With all of the defensive lineman brought in, I wonder if boogie basham or aj epenesa have enough value to move up in the draft. 
     

    We don’t think of them as “veterans” but they are not rookies. Both are recent second round picks. 
     

    Moving one of them with the teams first round pick to move up some spots would feel an awful lot like that Cordy Glenn trade.Moving one of them with the teams first round pick to move up some spots would feel an awful lot like that cordy glenn trade.
