Just getting Day would work with what we’ve got now but idk how much the wr wanting crowd(which is like everyone) would like that 😁 there def could be another restructure they’re ironing out and it could be multiple trades for sure though

Meyers is a solid player that has contributed with garbage qbs and garbage surrounding talent lol I could see him turning some heads if a non garbage team gave him a shot 😂 was probably on his way to another 800 ish receiving yard season with another terrible qb/oline/running game/surrounding talent type situation. Bowers is great but he missed a decent chunk of the season don’t think he’s a bills target but maybe someone new ends up with him

You have a short memory, friend lol. Last year he was very bad but the year before he was great…not really sure what happened to him. He’s had a pretty nice bounce back in Miami. Hasn’t really reached the highs of two years ago but he has been much better than last year

I’ve told myself I’m not gonna do that out of principle haha let’s see if I cave

1.7 extra mil with only half the regular season+playoffs remaining is a lot of practice squad guys 😂

You’re only on the hook for what’s remaining of the base salary as the new team, the total cap hit includes bonuses paid out already. Assuming my understanding is correct 😂. The contract stuff is a little funky

I mean I can’t say I know the future but I’m not sure what’s so surprising about that haha the guy has a modest remaining contract and he’s a good player on a 1-8 team that’s a free agent after next year anyway. Wouldn’t be the craziest thing in the world if the saints decided they weren’t gonna extend him and wanted to maximize trade value I think playing more games in that offense with a rookie qb is just gonna tank his value

This argument still fills me with rage haha. This year they absolutely needed a win to keep pace with Denver/lac, last year a win would’ve likely resulted in an undefeated regular season, the year before that the chiefs had a real chance to prevent the bills from making the playoffs. all three of those were massive games that they were 100% trying to win

Yea I sincerely doubt it’s waddle but the way this year is shaking out I think there’s a nonzero chance the bills way overpay for someone haha still very very low odds though I think if beane traded for Von midseason the year before we got him in free agency we probably win the Super Bowl that year. Thats gotta be haunting him to some degree 😂

Totally forgot waddle’s base salary was that low and he’s still on the end of a rookie deal…that just blew my mind haha I doubt it’s him but the numbers actually do work out which means people can hold onto their hopes a little longer 😂

Yea I think they probably like to have some cap left just in case and it’s probably someone coming in owed 1.5 million ish…unless there’s another restructure coming that’s not announced yet.. or it’s two players not owed much this year

I’m not that’s why I pointed out it depends on what you define as ‘big swing’ haha I think there’s a pretty big crowd here that would be fired up for shaheed whether warranted or not 😁

Probably depends on what you define as ‘big swing’…no idea what it is but someone like shaheed is only owed 2 million ish for the rest of the season also the bills could be restructuring others too and we just haven’t heard yet

Feels like it’s goin on league wide, I think the changes to offseason rules to help player safety has ended up hurting player safety lol

Best player in the nfl (that canceled a family vacation to appear in a playoff game)

Chiefs are lookin like a wildcard team to me most likely…the complication for them I keep getting hung up on is that Denver vs LAC game left. Someone’s gotta win that one and either Denver wins that and beats LV x2 and commanders without Daniels boom 11 wins right there OR chargers win that game and go to 5-0 in the division (assuming they beat the raiders too lol) with a great conference record on top of that. The team the chiefs can grab the tiebreaker on is already pretty far ahead and the team they are closer to in wins is in great tiebreaker shape

Drama aside is his foot actually healthy? I feel like he had some disagreement with the raiders over treatment. Who knows if he’s healthy or even in playing shape

Still think there will be some wr trade action…can’t say I’m 100% sure the bills will grab one though. Saw some quote that the raiders are open to trading meyers but might not move on from him despite him being on an expiring contract because they ‘want to finish the season strong’ which is nonsense haha teams are definitely holding out to the final buzzer to start bidding wars it seems

Yea I was kinda comin at that from a seeding perspective…. the win column is really all that matters for that. I think the bills won a game they probably should’ve lost and lost a game they probably should’ve won ditto for the pats…feels like you’re coming from a ‘who’s the better team’ type place oftentimes the better teams arent as good a seed as they should be because of a few ugly games early in the season though so it’s kinda two different but related convos I don’t think the pats are nearly as good as the bills are but they’ve got themselves in an ‘any given Sunday’ type situation for the bills rematch

Kinda semantics…pats can easily say the same thing about the Steelers game. And the ravens are likely saying the same thing about the bills game. It’d be a little unfair to add an asterisk to a bills loss and not other teams. If you’re talking about what is gonna happen in the rematch yea I think the bills should definitely win. But the pats are kinda in a position where they really don’t have too many difficult games and they can grab good seeding without even having to be great. ‘Are the pats actually a really good team’ is kinda a separate discussion.. I don’t think they are yet either but the standings are the only thing matters for seeding

It’s definitely possible…I wouldn’t say a ‘very good chance’ though. it flips to very unlikely if they lose the bills rematch. That eliminates the h2h tiebreaker then you shift to conference record (assuming they both finish the division 5-1) where the pats would be two behind so it would likely be a 1.5 game swing. Bills would be 7-2 with the tiebreaker, pats would be 7-3. Bills would have eagles left and pats would have ravens I think they’re def a solid team on the right track but ‘run through foxboro’ is a bit of a stretch too. The odds they grab the 1 seed and win in the divisional round are very low no disrespect to the pats intended at all

Oh yea not disputing that…but you can’t only apply the ‘should’ve won’ thing to one team once you’re going down that road…pats outgained the Steelers by a ton and fumbled like 4 times I feel like they’ve got a valid ‘should’ve won’ claim there

Yea I think if we’re going for the ‘should’ve won’ thing you gotta give the pats the Steelers game…bills are teetering on should’ve beat NE but if you go for bills should’ve beat NE you probably have to take the Baltimore win away.. feels like both teams are at where they should be overall with some minor discrepancies on what the tiebreakers ‘should’ be at lol

Yea I don’t think the betting market feels great about them either which means the value is there. They’re an interesting case where even if they are just ok and lose a couple games, the rest of their schedule is so easy that if one of those losses isn’t Buffalo they could get the 1 seed anyway bills have the eagles still and a couple pretty good teams…if they lose the tiebreaker to NE somehow it’d be tough to catch them i think the bills will probably get the 1 but +470 seems like good value for the situation the pats are in

I morally couldn’t place the bet but I think it’s the pats for best value haha if they can sneak another one out against the bills at home (I think it’s unlikely but you never know) they can lose the Baltimore game and the rest of the schedule is smooth sailing. broncos are a bigger payday if it hits but they gotta play kc who’s been backed into a corner twice and GB who knows what their deal is. Denver has looked great pretty bad in quite a few wins in a row now
