Jackson will get a big contract, they just have to hope this isn’t the start of a lot of injury issues. Not saying I want him as my QB, just looking at the infatuation with the guy, I think he gets paid.
I would let Baker play it out. He has steadily regressed, I’d risk it with him.. if he kills it, tag him and get a deal done, if not move on. If you can’t figure it out in 5 years, I’m not waiting anymore.

Dude is a missile in a straight line, rumor has it he’s been working with Moss on using his blockers, only good things can come of this.

He'll get a lot more than that if he tests the market. He's a starting DT. He'll probably get more term too.
He’s not a starting DT, only reason he has ever started was as an injury replacement. He’s been largely a non factor in the time he’s been in the league. Nobody is paying him big money, Bills included.

A rich man's Brad Smith
Yeah pretty much lol

Would LOVE to have him w the Bills next year as a McKenzie replacement or as an RB 2, always has had a ton of ability, seems to finally have found a legitimate spot on Offense now.
Just now, Simon said:Another Brad Smith?
Better than Smith ever was at the same type of role.

Notable Unrestricted Free Agents:
Jerry Hughes (DE, 33),
Mario Addison (DE, 34),
Harrison Phillips (DT, 25),
Emmanuel Sanders (WR, 34),
Levi Wallace (CB, 26),
Matt Breida (RB, 26),
(I’ve bolded who I think they will make an offer to bring back)
EDIT:
Not listed in the article are the following players that are also unrestricted free agents:
McKenzie (WR)
Zimmer (DT)
Neal (CB)
Obada (DE)
Jones (RB)
Trubisky (QB)
Butler (DT)
Boettger (OL)
Literally not a single impact player on the list. Wouldn’t mind seeing Wallace, Zimmer, MT, McKenzie, back, but no real losses if any of them get offered any real deals. I like McKenzie, but apparently he’s not a favorite of McClappy.

The previous two guys who exited the Bills from those position got 8-10M a year from Arizona and Miami. I am not sure why Phillips will not get a bigger deal. Good DTs are at a premium and someone will always overpay like we did with Star, Addison etc/
Those guys actually got on the field AND produced. The guy has played in 43 Games in 4 years, and has a whopping 101 tackles, and a HALF of a sack. The guys that got paid were actually impactful. Outside of Buffalo fans, nobody thinks he’s a “good” player. His own coaches don’t want him on the field, hence he’s a back up and in a rotation. Nobody is paying him anything, he’s a fringe NFL player at this point in his career. If you honestly think he’s going to get paid, I’m beyond glad you aren’t in the front office.

If you can’t beat 2 teams w less combined wins than you have, the playoffs don’t matter.

I think you underestimate Harry and the cost of defensive line players under the increased salary cap. I believe he can get close to Shaq Lawson money in free agency.
The guy has never been healthy and been a moderately effective rotational player for about half a season. Shaq had a very productive year, generating sacks, the year before he hit FA. There’s absolutely no comparison, nobody is paying him big money.

Might as well toss in 3rd rounders they intend to draft RBs with too.

If we don't get more inside run stopping, edge containment and quarterback pressure, we are in for a short post season.
The Tre'Davious White injury makes their performance a necessity.
Really need the DEs to get to the QB, I actually think they do almost too well at edge containment, in that they never get inside the edge in the first place. At very least Groot gets to runners out there. Everyone else seems to miss them even as they are right there.

Whatever, he gets paid, Bills win, all is good.

Breida has 100 yards of offense and a TD

Watched him at Iowa, he looked like a mid-late round pick. Just a bad selection in the 2nd round (there have been a few of these under this regime).
Ohhh you said bad words about Beane’s drafting, you are in troubbbble! Personally, I couldn’t agree more, lots of suspect picks.
18 hours ago, Malazan said:I'd expect he's in the 6-8.5 range. I think something around 7.5 for 4 would be about right. Remember the cap is escalating quickly. The Bills also get some breathing room with pandemic cap jail ending thanks to the new TV deal.
No way Harry is getting that much, he’s a low end replacement. He’ll be lucky to get 3.5 a year. Wouldn’t be shocked to see him back at vet min for 1 year.

You could definitely be right about Beasley getting his snaps back, but there's no question that he isn't nearly as effective against man coverage this year as he has been in the past. IMO that doesn't look like it's coming back. I think we'll see McK trend up.
We'll see. Maybe I think so because I hope so. McD has showed a habit of being very slow to make changes away from experienced players during the year.
Man has he ever shown a downright fear to make a change mid-year.. I agree, I think Bease is falling off some, but we’ll see.

He wasn't required to sign with the Jags. He chose to take that opportunity. And I don't blame him, actually -- what player wouldn't want to get onto an active roster, with the huge pay increase, and the opportunity to compete somewhere else for a starting job? NFL careers are short, and no one wants to languish in PS obscurity until they age out of being good players.
Anybody that questions a guy taking an active roster spot, regardless of with what team is nuts. Any chance to increase that paycheck and possibly put something on film in a real game is far more valuable than hoping it MIGHT workout if you stick it out with the current team. Worst case scenario, if you have made a good impression you probably will get another shot with the old club in TC next year, or best case, you impress and get a real contract.
Not that it was a great audition, but like how it worked for Fromm, from no chance to play to starting in a couple weeks. He blew it, but that could have been his big break. If he had performed, he would likely have gotten to start the rest of the year and earned a decent deal for next year as a back-up or possibly a starter battle.

With Davis and Beasley back and the game McK had last week it's going to be really interesting to see who gets how many snaps.
Assuming Davis is healthy, he should be starting and getting the lion’s share of the snaps over the aging prophet. Beasley will get his spot back, he’s the vet, he’s shown for years he has what it takes to win on a consistent basis, but I sure hope McK keeps getting snaps, he’s not Tyreek Hill, but he sure does make the D have to be more aware when he’s out there, especially when he’s in motion pre-snap.
I’d like to see them run some Jet Sweeps with him and have Allen peeling off the other direction, always give the ball to him, save the Allen keeper for the playoffs. Maybe use it to set up a flea flicker later as well. If McK has it in him to throw, I’d like to see him in the sweep and throw one down field, again, put the fear in the coordinators going forward, slow down the reaction speeds a little as we get close to critical games. It’s a great time to do it, if there is a mistake they SHOULD overcome it against the 2 bad teams left on the schedule. The other thing that could be fun is to have him and Bease run parallel mirrored routes underneath the LBs and have them split at the top of the route, one coming under one going over or out and force the D to read who’s going where, worst case the TE should be open if the D finds both of them.
Anyway, point of story, I hope he’s not the Christmas toy that’s lost in the closet by New Years.

Gotta love guys that are so valuable you can’t play them. If he’s good enough to be on the field then he belongs on the field, that’s like playing Turbiski all year because you want to save Allen for when you really need him.
I’m not giving this staff the benefit of the doubt on personnel, they have proven not to deserve that, more than once.

Used a first on Diggs, that has to count or we would have a 1st round WR on the team ( probably the guy that got taken with our pick, who is outplaying Diggs no less).

Maybe this is a hot take but I think the Colts are probably the team I’d pick to win in the AFC if everyone lost their starting QB.
Not saying this isn’t a blow, but I don’t expect them to look like the Ian Book Saints now.
I would disagree, you saw what happens to a team when the other isn’t afraid of a pass, it takes a miracle to score. If they all lost their starters right now, it’s STILL KC, then Buffalo (thanks to MT being a decent BU), then I think it jumps to Miami, and Baltimore if they make it in. You have to look at who would be in and how much they rely on QBs, KC has had success with a back up, Buffalo has MT who is a borderline starter, the Fins don’t rely on the QB and have arguably the best BU in football, and the kid in Baltimore looks pretty good so far, plus they are a run centric team. Indy is going to complete inexperience, no good. The Pats should not be forgot as they haven’t really forced the QB to do much all year anyway.
-
I’m hoping it’s a case where they are getting hot at the right time. They found it for a good stretch last year, would be nice if this one came for the playoffs, not starting to die in the playoffs.
-
Let’s be straight, they have a rookie QB and a system built for him to not be exposed much. The Bills have an elite QB and a questionable system with a complete trash O-Line in front of him. Sometimes, their system will win, most times, we are going to kick their balls in.
The National Media was ALL over Allen’s nuts last year, now it’s going to swing back if he keeps playing like this, you will here about the “ProBowl Snub” giving him the “motivation” to win. The reality is, he’s been over motivated all year, he FINALLY, took what was there and got rid of the ball. I do t know if that’s him or Daboll or both, but if he does that, the team is much harder to defend. His running lanes will be wide open, his deep shots will open up and some of those short throws will end in chunk plays, not to mention the play action game will open up and the run game will improve, also the OL will appear better simply bc they do t have to block for so long. He and Maholmes are one in the same really, if they take the easy stuff, the crazy ***** is a great bonus, if they force it all the time, they are going to struggle.

I also agree 100% with this (I'm done with Beasley, I can't believe he's blaming the rules for being out):
I think the Bills are lucky the Cole Beasley and Gabriel Davis absences didn’t kill their chances in New England. Both are unvaccinated. Not only did Beasley test positive last week—meaning he had to miss a minimum of 10 days before being allowed to test back onto the team—but also he had the gall to blame the NFL for being out. “Just to be clear Covid is not keeping me out of this game,” Beasley wrote on Instagram. “The rules are.” That’s like saying, To be clear, testing positive for a communicable disease is not keeping me out of this game. An NFL rule that I knew all about and risked being able to steer clear of is. Beasley played with fire and got burned, and the Bills had to adjust in New England without a key receiver who caught 158 passes since opening day 2020. Good for the Bills that Isaiah McKenzie played the game of his life replacing Beasley. And hearing Chris Mortensen’s report that Beasley has been fined “in the range of $100,000” this season for Covid violations has to make the Bills wonder why they’re hanging onto an insubordinate player, no matter his football value.
Mods, I’m pre-removing a reply to this for you, but he had best be getting the same warning I would.

Evans is a "fringe" HOF player at best? Really? Why don't you take a look at his career stats and get back to me. A couple of more years of similar stats and he is a lock. In fact, if we had picked Evans instead of Watkins, most posters on this board would have been more than cool with the trade-up.
Yeah, let’s see if the softest big receiver ever can keep up a few more years. This he’s a fringe at best HOF type, a few years of top 10 production does not A HOF career make.

That’s probably the best comparison out there really. Both really good at both facets of the game, Josh obviously a little bigger/stronger, but very similar skill sets.
