I actually agree here. Gesecki is not a great blocker, but just sheer size is an advantage over Beasley and he basically plays the same position. He’s just a WR that lines up funny sometimes. Beasley is no threat to take it to the house, so it’s not like you are losing that element. I’d like to see him out there to create mismatches. He could make it very tough to defend if you run 2TEs out there that are both receiving threats and at least big enough to get in the way of DEs. Tendencies would probably be running away from him, but then you play that, play action and throw it back to him, make the D have to think, that split second is all it takes to make plays work. I’m not sure it’s the absolute best pick, but adding him would be a nice pick up. I could argue for more speed, bigger WR, Pass rusher, etc, but play to your strength and add more weapons.

No thanks.. guy is nothing more than we have. Nice story, but not an upgrade.

Josh is going to be a major reason why people want to play in Buffalo. It’s not going to be about the low taxes, great weather, or hot women. When you are talking about over 10% of your salary headed out to NYS and you really don’t get a break on out of state games, because Mass and NJ suck too, it’s a tough sell vs Arizona, Dallas, etc. If I were Buffalo, I’d try to play the game, and offer to make larger payouts for the Miami game. Like, your base is 10 M, but we’re are going to say it’s 2M and an 8M game bonus for playing the Dolphins in Miami, injury guaranteed. Level that playing field. Either way, I hope Kirk ends up in Buffalo, even if it means Beasley is out.

I think the OP has a point, but it depends on how ballsy Star feels, if he says “no, go ahead and release me” the Bills lose the cap space and he loses money. So will they follow through? He stands to do nothing but lose money if he renegotiates. They could tell him, he’s gone no matter what, so take the money in signing bonus, get paid now, get released, they spread the cap hit out for 2 years w post June 1 designation, he gets a chance to go elsewhere if he wants or go home a rich man.

This is just obvious foolishness. As soon as the playoffs came, boom we aren’t testing because it’s not necessary. Now they are back to bending the knee and acting like it’s something they have to be restrictive about. I hope all the top prospects say, “you can come to me”.

It would be sweet to have Kirk in B-lo. He’s not a true #1 but he’s a menace when somebody else has the primary coverage. He should be a 1000 yard guy in Buffalo out of the slot. I could see it being something like Diggs getting 90 and 1100, Kirk getting 80 and 1000 and Davis getting 70 and 900 with 12 TDs. Davis may start commanding more catches if he can get in the groove he had rolling in the 2nd half of the year, he’s got elite speed/size combo and has shown sticky fingers, good body control, we could have Anquan Bolden in the making. That would be a hell of a win.

Familiarity goes a long way, but Zay did have a hell of a college career and had the physical attributes you look for. It was a good pick, it didn’t work out. Obviously, you would now rather have the other 2, but physically Zay has more ability and caught everything thrown at him in college. Something broke in that man’s mind, the other 2 really clicked in gear and killed it.

Morse returning is going to be based on Morse wanting to play or not. You can’t replace him for less and he’s not a bad player. He got over paid when we signed him, but that’s in the past. I would t be shocked if he retires, won’t be shocked to see him back, but I highly doubt they outright cut him.

I’m hopeful MT comes back, but I’m not going to be shocked if he’s off to NJ. I’d take Fitz, Brissett, Bortles.. whatever, you just need competent, there’s no replacing Josh.

Nope, let him walk, he’s marginally better than Mariota.

I cheered for the Rams so I wouldn’t have to hear about Burrow being the next Brady all off-season. So far it’s been minimal, but there’s always one. The AFC is stacked w good young QBs, pick your flavor. Burrow is in the conversation, but there are more dynamic guys, depends on what you like.

Didn’t love the signing when it happened and I’m not going to change my mind. Allen elevates players around him and Sanders was a non-factor. Time to put Gabe out there at #2 and draft some more WRs. Still could use a true game changer, but unlikely we land one, unless we get lucky and one drops in the draft. If they part ways with Bease, they are going to have to find a new slot guy too. I know everyone thinks the Bills are stacked at WR, yet if you look at the facts, they have one guy under contract who has ever had a 1000 yard season. Only one who was good enough to make the active roster that’s over 6’ tall. And none that are game changer speed. The group is honestly pretty mediocre as a whole. Allen has brought them up, Beas and Diggs had their career best years with him, he made Smoke relevant for a couple years, hell he had people thinking Robert Foster was an NFL player. Allen has made a mediocre cast look good, if he had elite talent around him, it could be obscene.

I think some teams might be a little more willing to go to proven difference makers vs hoping picks turn out, if they are contenders. The Bills came up short and may not have if they had taken similar risks to the Rams. The Rams are basically going to have to blow their roster up, but they got the ring. I’d make that trade.

He pretty well showed there’s nothing left in the tank. He was a non-factor all year, IDGAF what the “pressure” numbers show, unless it changed something, it’s nothing. He’s not getting home at all anymore. He’s no longer faster/stronger and he never had size, it’s time to move on.

He’s not a world beater with his legs, that’s no doubt, but we aren’t talking about Drew Bledsoe either. He’s mobile in the pocket and has had a little success taking off when the opportunity presents itself. He’s most definitely a passer that can take advantage of an opportunity, unlike Josh who can CREATE opportunity with his legs. Josh also holds the ball too long, the difference in the two is the ability to make things happen with their legs, Josh has a special ability, Burrow is more likely to take a sack.

I don’t agree with that at all. He moves around pretty well. He DOES hold the ball too long, they were really good at getting it out quick early in the game and then started looking for deeper shots, the minute they did, he got eaten alive.

They would be wise to invest in OL, when Spain is your best, you don’t have a line. Burrow needs better protection before he gets killed.

If he does I would see it as a cosmic shift in the way people are thinking these days. The point of work is to live, if I could retire after 8 years and be set for life, there’s no way I’d continue to work, why should we expect it to be different for these guys? The allure of money is there, but what good is money of you beat your body to a pulp and can’t enjoy life with it?

I love Minshew, he might get that shot, but I’d be pretty surprised. I think they would be more likely to look at Mariota or Winston. There may be some others who end up moving around too. I would have to think they will look to a vet that can manage the game with a little upside. They could have gone places this year with a decent QB. I’d be listening to all options, but I think Mariota makes a lot of sense.

Trading down to get away away from Maholmes was a great move too. Draft trades never work.

I’m on board for Saquon, the guy is one of the best in the game at RB when healthy. I know that’s a big if, but I’d take a swing if we could. Ideally it’s a player for player deal maybe sweetened with some late round picks that have little shot of making this team. Perhaps Moss and a 6th or the likes. I don’t think Moss has a place here and the Giants need to shed the contract, especially one committed to a RB. They are in a no win situation with him, either they pay big money to a RB who makes no real difference on a losing team, or they get a small return for him. If he stays and has a big year, you then face the fact you can’t resign him anyway and lose him fit nothing but the hope of a comp pick. Or he gets hurt again/doesn’t produce and you paid for nothing. It’s not great either way, I think he will be moved and I don’t think they are going to get much because every team is in that same position. RB is really undervalued right now, the Giants should not have drafted him, but that’s a whole different issue. Nobody is going to give up much for a high priced RB on a short term deal.

Finding a player like Hill is like trying to find a QB like Josh Allen. Super stars don’t just grow on trees and show up late in the draft.

I would LOVE OBJ on the Bills, really hoped they would grab him this year. Patterson has the attention of the league for sure, I don’t see him getting a big deal though, I’d guess 5-6 mill for 2 years.

Totally agree. Groot flashed early in the year, but his lack of football for the year prior and virtually zero pass rush moves eventually caught up. I have high hopes for him after a year in a real strength and conditioning program and hopefully with him working on his rush moves. Basham came on a bit at the end of the year too, I think he might actually end up ok, but I’m kinda wondering if they won’t kick him inside as a 3tech. We all know the cap situation is going to require some creativity in the near future, Oliver has been good, not great, I wouldn’t be shocked if they let him walk if the price gets too high and Boogie can step in his role. Epenessa, not a lot of hope on my end, likable guy, hard worker, but just doesn’t seem to have it. I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t see it.
