Does look like the scheduled trip from Clemson to Auburn was cancelled...plane went back to Buffalo instead. They could have taken another option obviously or maybe somebody needed to get back to Buffalo ASAP...

DL (Jefferson 534, Murphy 343) and TE (Kroft 298, Smith 171) seems to be the most snaps lost. Though Winters had 616 mostly due to Feliciano injury. Also, Norman had 344 and Marlowe 230 so a lot at DB as well. So expect some action at TE, DL, DB.

Lots of debate on Sanders. Here is how I see it. When it comes to your #2 or #3 the difference between the players is not as significant. You want a guy that is good enough to draw attention and get you 50 yards in a game if needed, catch a few key passes basically. So, Sanders is not much different than Brown, Green, Bourne, Jones, Hilton, Watkins, etc. You get the best one with the least amount of money. What you dont want is to let go of a Brown and think Duke Williams, Jake Kumerow, etc type guys being the replacement.

Got to make sure they are "process" guys

I have learned the purpose of the cap is protect teams from fans anger about not signing guys. If you want the player the cap is not as big an obstacle as you think. Heck the best method seems to pay massive contracts so you then have more options for restrux, then eventually when they retire they restyrux again at league minumum and tons of the cap that was pushed back goes away.

Good point. There are actually 10 Pegula jets scouring the country as we speak. Then one in Chi for Mack, another in MIN for Hunter and the others are chasing down Travis Kelce, George Kittle, Aaron Donald, McCaffrey and another handful of guys.

This is the real plane if anyone is interested in reality

Wrong plane. Real plane is at Clemson or on way to Auburn.

bump

Pegula jet has been in South Carolina for the Clemson pro day. On its way next to Auburn pro day...

I disagree with this. I dont think Sanders excels at the scramble and improvise game. Or at being a 3-4th option get open guy. I have always viewed him more as a timing route guy that you throw the ball to a spot and he will be there. Or that you hit on the quick slant. That has been his game the last few years at least. I see him being utilized more on the designed plays to get the ball out quick. Think first drives of the game or on short yardage passing plays.

Breshad Perriman on a minimum deal. Your speed guy. A ton of other WR's that could be had on a year prove it deal if not getting what they hoped for - Galloway, Fuller, Samuel, JuJu, Diggs/Sanders/Beasley/Davis (Kumerow, Hodgins, Gentry, Williams fighting for a spot or two).

Thanks for the attention to detail. Edited.

Edge: Clowney, Houston, Reddick, Dunlap, Ingram, DT: Jones, Ogunjobi, Suh, Rankins, Short CB: Jackson, Sherman, Butler, Rhodes, Peterson, King, Breeland RB: Carson, Drake, Johnson, Mack, Connor TE: Everett

Updated - so mods can pin

Well there you have it. Wish I was wrong. Decent amount of money to spend and would rather overpay for a bigger need like TE or DL.

I think this will be more $ than people think. This FO wanted him last year. They tend to have their favorites and go after them. I am betting $5-6M+ per. Fits a need though, but not my first choice. Now DE, TE, DT, CB...

Which is why he got a $2.5M deal with only $1M guaranteed. Worth the risk as a #3/#4 speed receiver. You can give it a year or even cut bait sooner and does not cost much.

Will be updated as they happen: Adds: WR: Sanders, Powell, Stevenson RB: Breida QB: Trubisky TE: Hollister OL: Hart, Douglas, Lamp, Doyle, Brown, Anderson DL: Lotulelei, Obada, Rousseau, Basham LB: Lee, Adams DB: Wildgoose, Hamlin P: Haack Subtractions (incl unsigned free agents): OL: Nsekhe, Winters, Adams WR: Brown, Roberts TE: Kroft, Smith RB: Yeldon QB: Barkley DL: Jefferson, Murphy LB: Phillips DB: Norman, Marlowe P: Bojorquez

Though he was a decent inexpenive option as well.

That is where I was going. And there are countless posts saying 1) Bills dont have $ 2) Bills dont need anyone 3) Bills only want bargains 4) Not the process and any other excuse for a guy signing elsewhere.

The Bills wanted him. Which is a good thing. Tired of all the posters coming with this the Bills dont want or need to sign anyone.

No, I have been here since the early 80's.Try again. Offered him $10M so yes.

So much for the "this is the Bills way". We got turned down by Watt, Gronk and I am sure some others will come out. At least it makes me feel better knowing they are looking to make moves.
