Florio raises an excellent question:
FireChans replied to Pine Barrens Mafia's topic in The Stadium Wall
They signed a decently priced OL player instantly in FA. -
Kiper and McShay mock draft ???????????????????
FireChans replied to BeastMode54's topic in The Stadium Wall
Johnson won’t be on the board by 91. He probably doesn’t get out of the top 45 unless he runs someone over between now and draft night. Terrible work outta McShay tbh. -
I’m waiting for the funny part of this story?
-
Reid doesn’t get by “with anyone.” We watched their patchwork OL get annihilated in the Super Bowl two years ago. They get good players. We get less good players. They draft good OL players. We draft Spencer Brown and Cody Ford. They sign Juju, we sign Jamison Crowder.

GOAT debate related to era Montana vs Brady
FireChans replied to Mikie2times's topic in The Stadium Wall
This is correct. It was a debate when it was 4-2 vs 4-0. It’s no longer a debate Brady wins. Anyone who says otherwise is wrong. -
I don’t know what you charge, but hug money for me is pretty cheap.
-
The goal would be to coordinate an extension that drops his hit. He doesn't want that 1 year option.
-
this would mean a lot more to me if I had even heard of you. Greatness is a habit.
-
@Alphadawg7 and a late 2024 pick. In all seriousness, I think I would go as high as a 3rd.

Devin White in 1 less year played than TREMAAAAAAAAINE has: 14 more sacks 7 more forced fumbles 80 less tackles Apparently not to the Bills lmao

Lamar Jackson wants guarantees that exceed Watson contract
FireChans replied to SCBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
To be fair, we don't know if the Ravens WERE lowballing him before. They could have been. -
Lamar Jackson wants guarantees that exceed Watson contract
FireChans replied to SCBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
>I don't disagree that he's taking what I would consider to be too big of a risk, Which is what the majority of the people are saying. Don't be dumb, take the money. > it's paid off so far in that he didn't sustain an injury that will prevent him from playing in future seasons. As of this minute, he has lost nothing in terms of realized income, though. Well, no. It MAY pay off. Josh Allen got $46M in cash in 2022. Lamar got $23M in cash in 2022. Josh gets another $28M this year, Lamar gets $32M. Josh has made more money than Lamar because he signed a deal and Lamar didn't. >As for endorsements, this doesn't impact anything. What it does is paint a picture of a dude who isn't doing what I consider to be the optimal path for financial well-being. Rather than quibbling over not having an agent or a couple extra million guaranteed, he should have been doing national Dr. Scholl's commercials and making up the difference. Like I said, all of his contemporaries are doing stuff. LJ does none of it. He's a young star, a great player, with accolades. Someone will pay him to hold a Dr. Pepper lol. >(not to mention the absurd claims that his salary 2 years ago was somehow impacted by not signing an offer that didn't get made until September of 2022). This is not how NFL extensions work, I believe. My understanding is that signing an off-season extension for a player with their fifth year option replaces their fifth year option, not get tacked on. So yes, the reason Josh made 46 in 2022 and Lamar made 23 is because he didn't sign that extension. Edit: the last point is wrong. The extension kicked in after his option year. Still, it would have behooved him to get a deal done sooner and again not be in the situation he is in. -
Lamar Jackson wants guarantees that exceed Watson contract
FireChans replied to SCBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
This whole saga is really silly. Lamar SHOULD be concerned about getting injured and taking a little less money on the year to year. But that’s not what he’s demanding lol. ”The entire reason long term deals exist is so players accept less total money for money guaranteed.” Does Lamar know that? He wants fully guaranteed AND a long term deal. You don’t even agree with him lmao. And more importantly, Lamar has absolutely suffered financially from an advertising/media presence. His contemporaries are on commercials everyday. This guy, when healthy, is electric to watch and was the MVP. Does he even do ads? -

The cause of "it's so unfair Lamar doesn't get whatever he wants because he was the MVP 4 seasons ago." -

No. They just want to show they are down for the cause. -

FireChans replied to SCBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
Okay. So first you're complaining that Daniel Jones has a deal and Lamar doesn't (Lamar would be signed to way more money than DJ tomorrow if he would agree with it). Try everything possible like test the market and see that nobody is paying what you're demanding? Maybe. If Drew was his agent tomorrow, do you think he would be telling Lamar to take the $280M 5 year deal? Of course he would. Agents don't get paid if you are sitting out. -

The only person stopping Lamar from getting paid is Lamar. The only people that don’t realize that are Lamar and you, apparently. -

Wasn’t he the last pick of the first? -
Even more startling, Bills specifically: The only Bills players that Josh had a worse passer rating than Gabe when targeting were Moss, Cook, Gentry (1 target), and Crowder. Josh had 6 picks targeting Gabe. 8 to the rest of the team COMBINED. Gabe had one more drop than Diggs on 60 less targets. Gabe only had a better YAC/R than McKenzie, Smoke (1 catch), Beasley.
-
6 of them. Tied for 2nd in league, along with guys who saw a TON of targets, way more than Davis.
-
All that needs to be said is in the top 30 WR's last season by ADOT, Gabe is top 6 in drop% bottom 13 in passer rating
