    Interesting signing. I liked him coming out of Colorado but haven’t heard much about him in the NFL. He's a hybrid type player WR/RB.

    He looked promising his first couple years with the jags then went to Carolina and fell off the map.  Pretty fun all upside signing

    Well mostly because we seem to miss more than we hit. Out best corner is a late round pick and our all pro slot guy it middle. Tre White was great and Gilmore was good but that’s 8-10 years ago. That’s the problem. I’m ok with it in general we actually need it now bot usually when we do it we don’t really need to. 

    Isn’t the sample size of recent early round corners just one guy? Haha tough to draw conclusions from that

    What’s with all these injury plagued players. It’s like Beane is trying to catch lightning in a bottle. Pretty weird since this has been the Bills number 1 problem for the past 5 years. I understand the Bosa signing, that one makes sense. I guess because they have a chance to get great production at a lower cost, but still it could backfire on him tremendously.

    The bosa concern makes sense to me but I think Forrest is more ‘falling out of favor after missing some time’ than injury prone

    Umm, doesn’t that sound like our existing safeties? I was hoping for more of a coverage guy, I think. 🤔 

    Hamlin seems very athletically limited where I’d think Forrest can be coached up.  Hyde and poyer and Hamlin the last year or two were all pretty far behind what Forrest would bring in that regard 

     

    Our safeties weren’t very good in run support either lol

    I love Tre but he looked pretty cooked last year.   Not sure if he will be better now he is two years off the injury.  

    He had a good game against us in the playoffs not sure how much of that was us being bad vs him being good though 😂. That pi he got hit with was pretty soft

    Just quoting what I saw in the news, B word at Schefter about it. 

     

    My point was, with that rumor out there, it looks like Beane overpaid. "At face value" I mean it's right in the post.

     

    If Bosa plays like Bosa could in the past, then it's a bargain and Beane looks like a genius. If not he's gonna get railed for paying him ~$13 mil. 

    Or Miami and SF tried to grab him for less than he was worth thinking they were the only teams in the running.  The bills really came out of nowhere with this one…the rumor mill had him going to SF a done deal

     

    he doesn’t have to be insanely good to be worth 12 million  as a DE

    Rumor has it SF and Miami were in the 10 and 8 million range... so another overpay by Beane, at least at face value. If he produces Beane looks like a genius but that is one massive IF. 

    SF got pantsed by cheaping out honestly…they released Floyd thinking they had bosa in the bag and got outbid by a small amount.

    Draft blunder? Curious to why you think that, I thought Carter was starting to come on before the injury 

    Pretty sure the post you’re responding to was the classic ‘judge based on just the PFF score and not the eye test’ lol

    I do think it would be, as currently situated, more than just a "dip" in talent at RB. Cook did some really impressive things last season. 

    I don’t think it’s as big as people are making it sound tbh…if cook was a better pass blocker maybe id be more nervous about letting him walk.hes great at what he’s good at but has a glaring weakness too 

     

    the other big money rbs are far ahead of him in that area

    So who will have a bigger impact?

     

    Bosa or Cook? Because people don't want to pay Cook close to this much money, yet they're fine with giving it to an often injured, about to 30 DE... with a whopping 13 sacks over the last 3 seasons. But yeah, great money spent!

     

    It makes no sense.

    Bosa…having Rousseau as the only pass rusher that’s a legitimate threat is a very tall order…your coverage better be real good on the back end if that’s the case which ours wasn’t 

     

    a dip in talent at RB when you’re mostly running it by committee anyway is not a huge loss

    Well, I'm a bit surprised that Joey netted $12 million "only" - probably the Bills too. But the market is the market. Injury aside, I feel there is something there the pros might see but fans don't see because a guy like Joey Bosa's pedigree in a premium position usually has a lot of suitors willing to gamble.

     

    But I'd also say that if no big money offers are on the table (like 4-5 year deal with big guarantees), the Bills are the kind of teams would be appealing to him. Better chance to have a stat year and championship. If Joey signed with Chiefs for the same amount, I bet 75% of the board would roast Beane for not outbiding the damn Chiefs.

     

    For those who wopuld rather pay Hendrickson. Hendrickson is actually a year old, and is probably looking for last big payday of his career. You are looking at close to $30 million average and much bigger overall guarantee... And on top of that, you have to give up a day 1 or 2 draft pick to the Bengals, which would mean another starter for the Bills defense.

    1 year prove it deal makes a ton of sense for both sides of this imo.  If it goes well he’s looking at a nice multi year deal going forward that a contender has the first shot at.  I don’t think he’d want to get slightly lowballed on a multi year deal starting this year 

     

    the bills honestly might’ve gotten the inside track by being the only team not wanting to lock him up for multiple years

    It’s a shame it didn’t work out, but it didn’t. 

    That injury was devastating…the dude was carrying the whole dline his first few games he got here and they fell off a cliff when he was out.  He had a pretty good year last year but wasn’t worth the contract even after restructuring it

    So they'll probably pickup a talented WR to fill the void while Rice & Worthy are out, and then when the playoffs come around, they will have that guy + Worthy and Rice, right on time, just like always.  In other words, they could end up with a stronger WR room by the start of the 2026 playoffs because Rice and Worthy got arrested.  ONLY the Chiefs can benefit from stuff like this.

    They miss on receivers pretty often
