    NFLPA Pres seeks to permanently end OTAs and minicamps

    NFLPA President JC Tretter thinks the quality of play hasn't been affected enough to justify ever having minicamps or OTAs ever again. He thinks it's not worth the extra wear and tear on players' bodies.

     

    I never considered these non contact events as being of the wear and tear variety and would rather not see them go. However, I can see both sides of the argument and definitely can't complain about how not having OTAs and minicamps have affected this season considering the Bills are having their best year since the Glory Days.

     

    Your thoughts?

    Less work hours equals less pay if I’m an owner, 

     

    of course this is just the beginning of the 17/18 game season negotiations...

    he will be playing vs our 2/3rd stringers 

     

    prob won't have a big game but do enough for the win. 

    Your so absolutely positive on our Bills, always saying how we will win/dominate other teams, and play well overall! You’re so uplifting for the rest of us...,

     

    I don’t know why on earth people call you the Eeyore of TSW...

     

    Oh, and happy New Year, 
     

    Go Bills !!!

    If Josh gets COVID or anything else happens to him, we're screwed either way.  I'd like to see Fromm against real NFL competition playing to win to get a better idea whether to make him the backup next year over Barkley (or someone else).

    Nuthin but luv Doc, but you are out of your reckoning on this. The team has zero need or reason to take Fromm out of Quarantine, and they won’t for the remainder of the season and post season, just not gonna happen.

     

    Go Bills!!!

    The bills have low key been ending young qb's in fans eyes

     

    Last year a decent amount of steeler fans thought duck hodges was the future, this year nick mullins and drew lock. 

     

    Could Tua be next?

    Yes, yes he could...

    I think Fromm is still getting his paycheck based on a clerical error.

     

    But seriously if Barkley struggles put Fromm in.

     

    As previous poster has mentioned this game is important. 

     

    If Bills lose and steelers win then Bills will have to go on the road to play the steelers and the refs.  That will be a tough game

    There is no chance Fromm plays, it would be a bad decision to take him out of quarantine, what with Fitz testing positive and being out for Sunday’s game we can not take chances, it would not be a smart decision.

    Brown and Allen really need to get reps together

     

    im not sure how Browns status is still in question but he cannot come in cold into a high intensity playoff game. He has to start this weekend. 

    In all reality, yes Brown can come in as you put it “cold”, and play very well, it’s not like he has never played a butt load of games with Josh as his number one wideout... Browns circumstances are what they are with Covid regs, so the team will control what they can, and find a way to make it work, it really is that simple.

    The answer to this is simple and timeless BPA. You do not reach in early rounds. If you are in the fourth or fifth maybe a little bit to fill a need. I know this will come as a downer for most but I see the bills taking a lineman (O or D) and a CB in the 1st three rounds. If they do I would not be disappointed. You build the trench capabilities and do everything you can to shut down the pass. Look how quickly CB depth evaporated this year.

    BPA is “almost” always at a position of need, league wide, every year, since the beginning of the draft. The examples of this are endless. A strictly  BPA selection does not happen as frequently as most folk think it does.

    The theory of resting/playing your starters in a quasi-meaningless game.

    I agree with the op, you play them to keep them sharpe, and sub in backups when the game is in hand, sitting them because they “might” get hurt is just silly, any starter can get hurt on any play, even in the first game of the post season, it is just a silly notion that you just sit all your starters because of some hypothetical injury scenario, it just lacks logic. If a starter ie; Beasley is already dinged up, then you let them have additional time to heal, but that’s it.
