Built for whatever and whenever... Except for reliable pass rushing. Doesn't seem particularly well built for that.

The Titans are the fakest "contender" team to ever exist. If Hopkins actually wants to compete for a ring, there shouldn't be any way they are in the discussion.

That would be the biggest steal since the last time Hopkins was traded.

I'll take cheap OG lottery tickets all day. Maybe we get lucky and one of them will hit.

I agree with everything you're saying, and I just want to add: By most reports, Hopkins isn't going to cost that much in terms of draft capital. Some are arguing because of his contract it might only be a 4th or 5th round pick and possibly a player. This isn't even mortgaging the future like the Rams have done. It's just making your team better right now.

Dunne has a vendetta against the current Bills regime. I don't even think it's debatable. He's been consistently negative on them since the moment they took over. That being said, he's not entirely wrong that a philosophy change is warranted. He's just a jerk about it.

I did say "if it's available", which would be a presupposition that AZ would be interested in the deal as stated. "Who says no to that?" is from the Bills perspective. I also said earlier in the thread that I think it's unlikely that Hopkins goes to the Bills. It's fun to speculate. Let people speculate.

And Beane shouldn't be, honestly. He was a very high pick that has not been nearly consistent enough or dominant enough, and I think he's started to run out of excuses as to why. He's a solid, good player, but not the superstar that we drafted him to be. Good teams don't pay solid players like superstars.

If I'm Brandon Beane I'm making that move in a heartbeat, if it's available. Then you're free to draft your DT of the future. How could you say no to that?

Sure would be fun, I don't see it happening, but it would be really fun.

There's an argument to be made that you'd rather keep Singletary and lose Hines, but then you're losing the return game as well. Overall, I'm happy with the RB room with how it's shaken out.

1 year "prove you can stay healthy" deal for way cheaper than Singletary, and arguably a better fit for our offense. I kind of love it.

They were bad when I was a kid in the 90s. Bar Bill is one of the top choices for sure though.

They certainly don't have them perfect anymore. The Anchor bar is terrible.

McKenzie is a rosterable NFL player, so I'm not surprised he landed somewhere quickly. Good luck to him, I'm not sure sure if he'll ever be able to put it all together, but he's a nice depth/gadget piece.

This is fine. He's not ideal, but he's still above Bobby Hart and that tier.

Is it the worst idea if he's really cheap? Probably not. It's a flyer move for a guy who massively underperformed last season. I wouldn't hate it.

I'll be incredibly surprised if the Bills or the Chiefs end up with Hopkins. I like the idea of OBJ or Hopkins as a stopgap for the next two years, because I don't believe in Davis anymore, and I don't think it's prudent to re-sign him quickly.

Because weight and height exclusively decide the effectiveness of an RB. This is a braindead take.

It just boils down to this: The Bills thought certain guys (Davis, McKenzie, Saffold, Moss, Spencer Brown, Ryan Bates) would step up and be adequate to good contributors on the offense, and none of them stepped up to a level that was acceptable for a team of this caliber. They've made some low end upgrades, and they still have faith apparently in Davis, Brown, and Bates in that they didn't go replace them. I think the offense is slightly better. Slightly better might be enough to make things way less clunky. It's hard to say. I want to see more offensive investment via the draft. G/C, WR, TE, T... any of those early would be a boon, but you've got to remember that McD absolutely refuses to play rookies.

I understand the sentiment, but are there any meaningful upgrades left with the O-Line in FA? I'd like to see investment in the offense heavily this draft, but I'm not holding my breath.

I'm with you. Gabe is in the final year of his contract and I don't see how the Bills can feel comfortable about offering him another deal. It's why even if they land OBJ I still want to see investment into WR early into the draft, and then maybe take a flyer on a guy late as well.

He's arguably better than Zeke, and he's definitely better than Fournette, who looked shockingly bad last season. Henry would be a more impactful signing but certainly not a move I would want them to make considering the cost. Harris is a good, smart signing.

I like the signing, but I'm very interested to hear the terms. He is likely an upgrade from Singletary in just about every way so long as he's healthy. Still need more investment in the WR room and O-Line.
