ProcessTruster

Injuries matter. Samuel had a turf toe, which is devastating to a speed guy. Pretty much wiped his season, as that type of injury tends to do. Once healed, we saw what he could do. If Samuel is healthy, Cooper doesn't happen. Yeah its a restart for him, but the fundamentals of why Beane went and got him should still be there, right?

yep. I don't put much weight on rookie seasons. Rookies' bodies just aren't ready for the NFL; for example, I expect D Carter to come back stronger, around 320 at 6'3" and be the monster he flashed a bit this past season. I expect Coleman to come back smarter and pick up right where he left off in Seattle b4 Poyer cheap-shotted him. These two came out as 21 year old college juniors. Same for Bishop; physically that guy can play anywhere in the back 5. Give them a chance to get an NFL body/smarts on themselves b4 judging them. I'd love to build a dream team of other teams superstars, but that is not happening with what is about to be a $60m+ per year QB (who has a few flaws of his own) cap hit. It is a continual process of draft and develop, IMHO.

assuming injury-free Coleman, Samuel and Kincaid, plus a speed WR draftee/FA or 2 I am reasonably good at WR even if Cooper walks for $15m+ somewhere else. I need to sign Cook and Shakir as they make this offense go. Cooper on the wrong side of 30 soon. Amazing how this board writes off guys who were playing seriously banged up for more than half the season (esp. Samuel) . Amazing really. Just write 'em off. Not a lot of thought goes into so many posts here.

the offense is unstoppable now. led the league in scoring and set the 60 year franchise record. not sure what you are thinking here. Just play the offense back next season with a speed guy added, probably via the draft. The D is where work needs to be done.

washed. Next.

it would be cap prohibitive, so not really an option. he's your starter next season. next.

yep, the last guy I'm listening to is the guy who presided over some of the most painful years of the drought 2013-16

He'll take 8-9 per and be happy with it. Or he will be gone. If he holds out he loses what he is making now. He's a little guy fairly useless in short yardage, near red zone and pass protection; is why he sees only 50% the snaps. RBs are plentiful in this draft. Go get one.

He is absolutely holding out. His agent will definately require that. that is standard operating procedure in this situation. Fanbase will be tested on this one as it will get nasty. Draft is deep in RBs; Cook is useless in pass protection, only plays half the snaps. Beane will prepare to move on from him and see what happens. He is absolutely holding out.

sure , why. not. so Jackson and Johnson still live in WNY?

a west coast guy playing in miami probably isn't coming to WNY (take a look outside), plus safety is a lower priority

true, but travel planning just gets supercharged once the schedule of games comes out.

as long as Shad Kahn has a couple staff parties on his 400ft super yacht , I'd be in all the way

On two weeks rest, I'd bet the Bills on a neutral field would have competed better than the Chiefs did, since Bills beat Chiefs on a neutral field 3 out of 4 IMHO

and yet, so many on this board would just as soon tear it all down, just to be rid of McDermott.

ok ok , but I know how this board works... so what will it be? DT or "excellent" WR? ya only have one (low) 1st rounder and limited cap space to splurge on a $25m+ "excellent" WR. Lots of high priced roster guys to sign. Can't have everything.

Carter will be a force this season. Patience. The injury was unfortunate, but you cannot now just ignore the guy like he isn't there. Guessing they grab the Michigan DT (Grant) in the first if he falls that far. Then everyone will be pissing that they didn't go WR in the 1st. Sigh.

exactly

no way Adams plays in WNY, so forget that. Garrett seems like a decent guy so he seems like a much better fit for WNY

I'm not one for the shiny FA toys, but Myles Garrett has my attention.

anywhere they want to have it .... prob New Orleans. just too much fun..

gonna be a long offseason....

Van Miller was a great voice.

good stuff
