  1. Reminds me of what that coach on Last Chance U said quite simply, "it's not the x's or o's, it's the Jimmy's and the Joe's".  I'll give the coaching staff the benefit of the doubt after last year.  The Bills are at a decided disadvantage every week with the amount of dead money this year.  Now they have to develop the talent to extend because FAgency isn't the answer to building a quality roster. 

  2. I think the earlier mention of Mark Sanchez wasn't a bad one.  He's taken on the mentor role well in the past couple of years and is not a threat to Allen.  He's a professional and I think could really help with Allen's development.  He's an interception machine due to arm strength, but he's proven to be serviceable.  Another mention I thought was interesting was Griffen.  I'm game for kicking the tires on anyone now. 

     

    Who in the QB room is going to make him better in the mental and preparation side of the business?  Rex Grossman embraced this with the Redskins, got a couple more years in the league and helped with Cousins. 

  3. Do any of you know what his cap hit is for this year?  Over 11 million.  He's the 5th highest paid RB (when Bell reports) after the recent deals.  

     

    Only a hand full of teams have the cap space. 

     

    I think Lynch recently fetched a 5 round pick?  I can't recall any other recent RB trades.  The Raiders were ridiculed for being stupid then and that was with a 4.5 million salary for him.  What did the Bills get for Lynch when he was a young guy, a 4th?  

     

    The Bills messed up giving McCoy an extension when it wasn't needed.  His cap hit is 9 million next year, too. They screwed up and as always we pay the price.  50-60 million in dead money over two years is inexcusable.

     

    I'd bee thrilled to get a bag of balls for him at this point.  Anything more and we hit the jackpot.

     

     

     

     

  4. Name the charity. $50

     

    You've been stuck in western NY too long.  The quality of sports journalism in other parts of the country allows the fans in those areas to look at facts and not be subjective and have opinions that are uniformed and baseless. 

     

    Another front office like the Browns isn't going to bail this group of executives out.

    Lol, “crossingbroad.com.” Why not just cite shadyisajerk.com?

    Did you even read the summary?  It's all stuff that's been documented by the Philadelphia Inquirer and other "legitimate" publications. 

     

    Guy's a known cancer and a d!ck. Take off your blinders. 

     

    How about this:

    Do you see a pattern here?  I wanted no part of him in a Bills uniform.  Having contacts in the media, going back to his rookie season people have been cleaning up his messes for a while.

  6. For the individuals with their heads in the sand, this is what the rest of the NFL front offices know about this guy:

    https://www.crossingbroad.com/2018/07/a-look-back-at-lesean-mccoys-off-field-issues.html

     

    He's always around some bad things going on. 

     

    ****Newsflash for you eternal optimists, he's worth NOTHING on the trade market!  I'm starting to question the football intelligence of the fan base.  

  7. Just now, Billznut said:

    They absolutely can trade him for a 4th,5th, 6th  no problem, if it comes to that. By week 4, he will demanding a trade out of here, so nobody will need to feel bad for him. 

     

    You're delusional.  If you could find a willing partner to accept the money owed (a big if) you're looking at a conditional 6th or 7th tops.  In a position of much higher value, what did the Bills get for M. Darius?

  8. I'm astonished at the lack of awareness and understanding of the salary cap and position value.  RBs past the age of 28 have very little value in the trade market.  When you add to the equation a high cap number it's even less.  Also, the legal issues of this specific player and previously known character issues and you're stuck with him.

  9. Steven Means should be in here and offered a contract.  Not a sexy name, but the guy can play, he lost out on a numbers game in Philadelphia.  The Eagles DL is one of the strongest in the league.  This is how you find diamonds in the rough.

  10. Father Time is undefeated.  At his cap number and fresh legs always available in draft at a discounted $, I suspect this will be his last year.  His ego is too big to realize what AP should have, the FA market is not kind to RBs at any age.  As a aging RB, always the reduced team deal.  Agents do their clients a disservice in not being honest with them.  Why the Bills gave him an extension when they did was confusing?  

     

    2017 4.0 YPC, that will not merit his cap number.  Has dropped a bit over the years.

  11. Lets hope they get him an appointment with Nelson Agholor's sports psychologist and the QB and coaches put him in a position to ball out.  If NA could recover from what he was going through I have hope for Zay.  We need some mid-tier players to step up and surprise us and the league.

    Maclin is like a girlfriend you beg her not to leave you put your best suit on (shady McCoy) and she’s still not impressed leaves for the other guy finds out you won’t put out unless you put a ring on it so he dumps you now your sending text messages to your old boyfriend hey you want to get together for a cup of coffee your response should be no thanks gave it up

    I like the analogy.  Did he pass on the Bills for the Ravens last year?  The more I think about it, I like the post above.  Lets hope they find the next Jimmy Smith, Rod Smith or Wes Welker off the trash heap.

    Gee, isn't it funny that with all the professional teams drafting, they will have 4-6 QB's in the first 32, rather than 1.  I guess those guys aren't as smart as the guys who made that list.

     

    We'll only know in about 3-4 years.  We should look at previous draft rags to see how good their prognostication skills really are.  I'd also like to see a montage of the network talking heads describing all the can't miss players that have done nothing in the league.
