  1. Oliver and Risner is hard to improve on if you are being a realist and the Bills stay at their current positions...Risner is borderline whether he will still be there at 40 though... I expect him to go around 30..

     

    Not sure about Allen but don’t hate it..It’s the third round and the big names are gone... I would probably prefer DE Joe Jackson.. I think he has a higher ceiling and he will probably be there when they pick in the fourth..

    He could go higher,  but there isn’t an “elite” corner in this class. Several good ones though 

     

    Yeah I think you have him around where he will go..

     

    I was just commenting that a few months ago there was some hype about him and some people here were pitching him for the Bills first pick .. that seems to have disappeared now

    I never loved Jonah at 9. In theory though, you could take the Zach Martin approach and plug Williams into the RG spot. You likely have a really good player for a long time there. I still think they go best defensively player available, with an outside shot at Hock or Metcalf. Money's on defensive line though...Gary, Oliver, Sweat, Burns, Wilkins...or one of the guys like Williams or Allen who possibly drop a bit. 

     

     

    Interested in your thought on Cody Ford.. maybe moving  up to the bottom of the first for him?

  4. I can see Day 3 picks at S, LB, RB making the final team and perhaps even turning into valuable contributors  a year or two down the track... A couple of others picks may find their way to the PS... maybe a couple get cut..

     

    Pegula is supposedly paying top dollar for these scouts so lets see them continue to unearth a few more Day 3 diamonds in the rough...

    I think the Bills would love that if they could get it.

     

    But that would mean the Bills would get 100 points by only giving away 15 points. I think the Rams would laugh in our face at that deal. But if the Bills could get it, yeah, jump on it.

     

    Huh?

     

    On the Johnson trade chart moving up from 40 to 31 is 100 points... 

     

    Pick 74 is 220 points and pick 99 is 104 points..

     40th to 30th would cost a 3rd.

     

    A trade up wouldn't surprise me but one where they give up an earlyish pick would. We'll see.

     

    A possibility I see is trading up from 40 to 31 with the Rams..

     

    Rams have 31 and then two picks at the bottom of the third...

     

    They could swap 31 and 99 for 40 and 74..

    I'd try and do a two year deal which is really a one year deal (maybe $4-5m guaranteed money on the 2020 cap) that means there is a penalty for the Bills to get out but not an insurmountable one. 

     

    So $26m over 2 years, including a $9-10m signing bonus spread over the two years. That gives you a cap hit of about $14m fully guaranteed in 2020 and cap hit of about $12m with only $4-5m guaranteed in 2021. 

     

    Not sure he takes that deal to be honest.. I think another team offers him my deal..

    Indeed. But if you want to re-sign Hughes that is going to be his starting point for negotiations. He is going to start from $20m guaranteed over the life of whatever deal you want to give him.... 2 year or 3 years or whatever. 

     

    If he has a similar year this year to last,  I think you offer him $36m for three years with $23m or so guaranteed so the team has an option if they bring him back the last year..

     

    I think it would be a more civilised way to treat a guy who has given pretty good service to the team these past number of years..

    I'm guessing is his agent was competent they were waiting until all the big DE names in free agency were signed to get what they see as fair market value.  Given his age and our cap space, I could see him getting around a new three year 36 million dollar contract (20 million guaranteed) contract that's front loaded.  Maybe add in some incentives for production (sacks).  Fricken Murphy got 7.5 million per year.  I think 12 to 14 million a year would be fair if the Bills decide he's worth it. 

     

    Im on board with this amount.. I think it’s fair... maybe a few more million guaranteed so he essentially gets 2020 and 2021 secured in Buffalo..

     

    Hope he is still playing well enough to see the last year of the deal.. based on his form this year I would say there is a good chance.. he will be 34 that last year but that’s not over the hill these days..
