    If there was EVER a position where McBeane deserves the benefit of the doubt, it MUST be safety don't ya think??

    We had Rapp last year. We know what we are getting with him. Don’t know why you give him that kind of money.

    Yes and no. Hyde was a guy that played like 70% of the snaps in GB for a few years. Poyer played 90%+ the year before in CLE, though was on IR part of the year. Prior to that was a situational guy. But yes they both hit their stride in BUF and became all pros.

    Unlike Bates he actually plays, plus provides great depth. Seems like nice value, no?

    We are not talking huge numbers here. But if we are cap strapped and counting pennies to sign at other positions then I let Edwards walk and use a rookie or vet minimum guy be our OL depth and extra OL. But at most its like a $1.3M overpay. 

  4. You could go down the list of every super bowl winning team and find free agents that led to a super bowl win. It may always not be in year 1 of their deal but every team is built with both free agents and draft picks. If you are trying to say a free agent that single handedly won a super bowl that is not really realistic because now it is basically an argument around QB's. But you then have Stafford, Brady, Manning in the last few years.

    Very similar size but Mitchell is much more athletic - faster, jump higher and farther, etc.

    10 yd split - Mitchell 1.52 vs 1.56

    Vert Jump - Mitchell 39.5 vs 35

    Broad Jump - 11'4 vs 10'4

    Ht and Wt - Mitchell 6'2, 205 vs 6'2, 216

    Hand - Mitchell 9 vs 9 1/4

    Arm - Mitchell 32 3/8 vs 32 1/4

    Considering Barkley, Pollard, and Jacobs are all UFA's now i don't see how thats in the cards for him.  Or literally any of the backs, theres too many available plus the entire draft. 

    There is a good chance these guys are looking at deals around $5M per. Sadly that is what we are paying Hines.

    The Bills have quite a few more players in the 3 to 10’milion cap hit range than the chiefs do.  I am curious as to how much more production you get from Ryan Bates at 5.4 million.  Compared to say Ryan Van Demark at 0.9 million.  

    This is my issue with the Bills roster construction. It has slowly gotten better because it had to due to some of the large contracts. But too many of those mediocre higher paid guys over either cheap rookies or even cheap vets. We keep guys like Neal around for over $3M and he plays a few snaps here and there. Replace that with the cheapest deal you can get. You do that a few times and you have room for a $10M guy all the sudden. Imagine we had Hopkins last year...

    Because Shorter was the top WR of his class coming out of high school so he's realistically a better talent than most other guys out there. Granted he may never have developed to his full potential in college and as a result may not in the NFL either. Only time will tell. 

    We talking about high school? Never mind he graduated in 2018 and has a ton of college tape since he played 5 years of college bowl. Man you should have seen uncle Rico throw the ball over the mountains. If only coach had put him in they could have been state champions.
