No to DeJean over WR … I agree … If Latu was there at 28…. That would make me think though …
-
Yeah … I could see Polk as a possibility at the end of the second … no certainty to last that long though …
-
2 spots in the fourth I would be thinking 5th tops
-
You got to be honest and say that was another failure of a deal by Beane …

Jax Josh Allen Gets $141.25M & $76.5M GTD
Aussie Joe replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
I had you pegged as a tea drinker … -
Maybe if they got him after a trade down …and they still got a bigger body later in the second… Still not my preferred option with what they end up with
-
I’ll obviously hope for the best … but I’m disappointed if Worthy is the first guy they pick
-
I hear ya man … gotta take more shots .., not less
-
There are a few names on the failures list that a lot of posters here have banged the table for at the time …
-
I think if I got a peek at the Bills draft board … I would be looking a long time trying to find his name … Take him out of your mock draft guys … even in the 4th round ..

Jax Josh Allen Gets $141.25M & $76.5M GTD
Aussie Joe replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
Not really too worried what this means for Rousseau at this stage … different levels compared to this guy and Burns -
I think they prefer 3 ones from the Vikings
-
Since Diggs .. I’m starting to talk myself into a guy like McMillan or Baker…if you got one of them ..provided they were paired with an earlier pick say Mitchell, Legette or McConkey.. I think I’d be happy with that .. I mean ..could they even get that accomplished with a trade down from 28 into the mid/ late thirties in return for a third round for say Javon Baker … and picking for example a D lineman at 60? Probably the best case scenario for the draft … if you didn’t want to trade up

Josh Allen Snapped at Diggs - Per Tim Graham
Aussie Joe replied to wppete's topic in The Stadium Wall
I don’t think there is more to it then Diggs having a crack at Allen about one of his mistakes in the game and Allen biting back … Im sure it was forgotten about by the next training session and they went on to play pretty well over the next three weeks -
Josh Allen Snapped at Diggs - Per Tim Graham
Aussie Joe replied to wppete's topic in The Stadium Wall
Incidents like this.. players snapping at each other in the locker room after a tough unexpected loss … would happen quite regularly in team sports… Im not saying there weren’t issues with Diggs and Allen .. but this particular story is a nothing burger in my opinion .. -
The Bills dont seem to pick these massive DTs … and he is one of the biggest I can recall in recent years … but if he is still there at 128 why not? He seems to have fallen down the mock drafts since the Senior Bowl… but at one stage he seemed like a 40-50 range pick …

In hindsight, should we have traded for Diontae Johnson?

You mean like Dan Fetes ?

Perhaps … I still say a lot of guys wouldnt have taken the paycut… particularly in Miller’s position who might be out of the League in 12 months … I don’t think there is any chance Diggs would have done so … even two years ago when he liked being here .. Those cuts have freed up about $15 mil and made the offseason to date a bit easier to navigate for Beane … they could have freed up all of the money for Josh’s restructure I guess which could have got back about half that figure … They are still short of money now if they want to trade for a vet like Metcalf or even Sutton … I hope they can work something out still and that is a possibility for them …
-
They made the call to extend him early … I think he had 2 years left … no doubt it was done with the best intentions to keep him happy … He was playing well at the time … but it looks a poor decision now … if they waited another 12 months to the off season after Bengals playoff game carry on … then the fans would likely be happy to see him gone with a first round pick and a lot less cap pain… It’s a sliding doors moment that hopefully we aren’t looking back on in 10 years … just another thing that doesn’t seem to go their way …
-
I’ve been thinking that he has got a little lucky this off-season with Miller and Knox agreeing to pretty unlikely pay cuts IMO.. I wonder if he still trades Diggs if those pay cuts don’t happen?
-
I like Beane and don’t want him fired … BUT … he is in the middle of a bad run at the moment … Extending Diggs and Knox and signing Miller have all proven to be poor decisions …and they are coming together now and will negatively impact this 2024 season ( at the least ) which is smack in the middle of Josh Allen’s’ prime … He got then into this mess, so he deserves a chance to get them out of it given his track record you mention .. I will watch what he does with interest …, there is a lot at stake now to get our unicorn QB some help to win a Championship..
-
My point was about this latest development of having the last three years of essentially non guaranteed money being waived is a better deal for Diggs … not either team .. If he doesn’t play well then he is getting cut regardless … if he does play well then he has the opportunity to negotiate for more money with a new team
-
He has nothing to lose though .. He only had $3.5m guaranteed …so if he doesn’t perform he gets cut regardless..if he does perform he gets to stay playing at $18-19 m year by year Now If he balls out then some team ..( likely a bottom feeder) pays him more money including guarantees… And the Texans get back a third round comp pick Hey .. probably won’t happen but if we see Weeks 1-6 Diggs from last year and not Weeks 7-18 then it’s some possibility
