Do it, Beane.

Exactly 1000 yards would have ranked 29th in the NFL last season in between Terry McLauren and Travis Kelce. Only 34 WRs had 800 or more yards.

This isn’t accurate considering Diggs is $31.1 million by himself.

One of us is way off, I’ll give you that much.

He’s basing his actions on what he thinks the league office will decide. I’m guessing he winds up missing 6 games for the initial incident.

Great. We’re splitting hairs here. Nobody put cuffs on him. He never took a ride in the back of a police car. He walked into the station on his own, went through the booking process, and walked out on his own. The legal definition of being in custody is “when, after being arrested or convicted of a crime, they are held in jail or prison”. https://www.legalmatch.com/law-library/article/police-custody-lawyers.html Again, we’re simply splitting hairs here. The point is that nothing from a legal standpoint related to tours incident is going to impact what happens on the field. The league office is the real concern. Now if the worst is true regarding the nightclub situation, that could be a different story.

He went into the office on his own, completed the booking process, and left. He was never cuffed or confined. It happened exactly as I said it would. Pretty much everything I post here does.

Two witnesses have said that he never touched the guy. Might be time to tap the brakes (hehe) a bit on this. Wouldn’t want another Araiza situation to occur.

Burks played 443 snaps last season. Elam played 155 and only played defensive snaps in 2 games. I just don’t see any reason to consider Elam when making roster decisions when it’s clear that the team considers him to be such a liability that they would rather give up a second day pick to add an aging veteran to replace Elam than let him play for a meaningful amount of time.

They just showed that they’d trade for a player instead of playing Elam. What difference does it make if his replacement is even worse when they won’t even see the field for a meaningful amount of time?

If they wanted Coleman with that pick they would have taken him. Not sure why that’s hard to grasp.

The entire premise and surrounding discussion of this thread is completely off base. There is no such thing as overpaying a player who produces superstar level production, and there is no problem that can’t be solved by drafting well. Every April provides a confessional for NFL GMs. There is no sin that cannot be atoned for. If you want to win in January, you have to win in April.

So they clearly didn’t want Coleman either, right?

What makes you say the Bills clearly didn’t want Worthy?

It’s going to take a LOT of addition to offset 2000 yards, 15 TDs, and $30 million of cap space worth of subtraction.

Then the majority of NFL teams are fools because 56% of them exercised the option this year. It’s absolutely valuable.

That’s Muhmar Ghaddafi. He stepped down as the leader of Libya to play Shortstop of the Red Sox in the mid nineties. Good player, but it was annoying to watch him fidget with his batting gloves between every pitch.

How does this make any sense? The Chiefs could have drafted Coleman. Does that mean the Bills didn’t want him either? You’re treating this as if the Bills knew who the Chiefs and everyone else who picked from 29 to 31 were going to take.

Why do so many people seem to think that other teams are clamoring for the opportunity to acquire crappy players? Do you put every banana peel on eBay instead of throwing it in the trash thinking that someone else must want it?

The only way that Beane really looks smart here is if Worthy, Pesrsall, Legette, and Coleman are all equally good. Even if Coleman is the only good one, it was dumb to let 5 additional picks take place before the Bills took him.

It’s great fan fiction, but there’s not a chance in hell that Veach would tell Beane who they were targeting. Its a ridiculous suggestion.

Yeah, the one game Brown played in NE plus the 7 (6.5) he played in Tampa before quitting in the middle of a game really took Brady’s career to the next level.

When Beane was building the roster 6 years ago, he had a very clear plan that he stuck to religiously. Now, there’s a glaring lack of intentionality in seemingly everything he does. He clearly didn’t intend to trade Diggs. His hand was forced. Then when it was time to replace him in the draft, he traded back twice. Even if Coleman turns out to be a superstar, it was a bad move for Beane to let three more teams take WRs before Buffalo drafted him. BB just seems a bit lost at the moment. It’s easy to say in hindsight that he’s trying to get bigger and stronger on offense and that’s why they drafted Coleman, but that’s nothing more than shooting an arrow and then painting a bullseye around it. SF could have just as easily drafted him. Then if Buffalo took McConkey or Pearsall, the same people would be saying that Beane is clearly trying to do (insert whatever narrative would have applied to the player he picked instead of Coleman).

You’re not looking at this correctly. His average cap hit over that stretch is 5.25, but that makes him easily one of the top 5 cap hits overall during that period. It’s not like whomever has the highest overall hit is going to be the top hit every season, thus averaging 1. If a player had the highest cap hit in the league 3 times and the second highest hit once over a 4year period, he’d average 1.25, but he’d still have the highest overall hit.

Every team on that list has at least 2 pass catchers better than anything Buffalo has.
