He sacked Mahomes…Not when it mattered

I mean…all the best to Siran Neal but I never understood why he was paid so well. He was ok on Special Teams but no one ever considered among the best in the league.
He seemed to be the guy who made it downfield toward the goal line but usually messed up when it came to keeping the ball out of the end zone.
He also couldn’t play defense. More times than not when you had Siran Neal in coverage it didn’t end well.
This was an easy release for Buffalo

This is a Trent Sherfield level signing. I really hope this isn't the end of our WR free agent shopping.
I see him as a bigger, better replacement for Trent Sherfield

First " official" day of FA. Predictions for Bills? I predict 2 signings, a FS and a WR, who they might be?? What do others think the Bills sign today?
Both are decent predictions. I’d bet on the Bills paying a little more for a safety. I know they’ll sign a lower end WR that could start just depends which one. I fully expect the Bills to draft a WR to replace Gabe as well-

Best of luck for Poyer. I think he’s still good if you can bring him down in the box but he’s lost a step and it was impossible to keep him at the salary he was signed to. -

I don’t think we’re going to spend like that on a DT after resigning daquan. We shouldn’t invest that heavily in that position imo. Never know though, we’re talking about Beane and the DL
The longer he’s out there, the lower his cost becomes. I think they could get him on a one year deal for $4M

Accidents happen. No need for him to sit in jail. Fine him and move on.
Read this story and tell me if you feel the same:
It seems like justice wasn’t served for the family and it came under suspect circumstances

The part of the article where the mom wonders aloud what would have happened to her if she was drunk, ran into Reid’s car and injured Reid’s kid, is particularly thought provoking. I think the answer is obvious.
And the DA can say all she wants about not accepting the plea agreement if she knew it would be commuted. 3 years, even if fully served, was never enough for this dirt bag.
It’s infuriating… -

We will be drafting DT's
You can find a pretty good space eating DT in the mid rounds. That’s what Buffalo needs-

Hey dude you seem like a smart guy. A real business man type. I have a buddy in Brooklyn who is getting divorced and wants to make sure his wife doesn’t get a lot of money. He needs to sell his bridge. Super cheap. You in?

Mother of girl injured in Britt Reid crash shocked by commutationThis is gut wrenching… and I’m sure the pardon has nothing do with Parsons fandom… imagine trying to defend this. Draw your own conclusions…
”Jackson County prosecutor Jean Peters Baker told ESPN last week she would have never agreed to a plea deal if she knew Reid would serve only 1½ years.
Parson, a self-proclaimed Chiefs fan, attended the Super Bowl in Las Vegas last month where the Chiefs won their third Super Bowl in four years. He received a tattoo to commemorate their win in 2023.
Miller said she was not notified by the governor's office about the commutation, and she said she has not personally heard from Reid or his family since the accident. Asked if she would take their calls, she said "no."

It legit had nothing to do with it. It’s caused a huge uproar in the city. He could rot in jail as far as I’m concerned. Britt actually served more time than average for his crime which is why he was on the list of commutations. No politician is stupid enough to hurt his own aspirations like this intentionally. He’s not a KC guy in any way, shape, or form. No chance he’s doing favors for the Chiefs.
I completely disagree…Britt also has a prior record and deserved way more time.19 minutes ago, boco357 said:Really? How come it dropped on like at 5pm Friday if it was such good news for all involved?
Because he’s a Chiefs fan and doesn’t want to fathom the possibility that his favorite coach could be involved with getting his son out of trouble which he’s continually done for the past two decades.

I like the idea of signing DJ Reader to a one-year deal. Seems like the perfect option-

Parsons is an absolute POS. That said, this was one of hundreds of commutations done at once. It doesn’t appear to have involved political favors. Britt just happened to be one of many, many irresponsible people who have overcrowded Missouri jails.
You honestly believe that his last name had nothing to do with it? Come on man?-

He served only 16 months of his 36-month sentence and the Missouri governor, a big chief fan, commuted his sentence, he is now a free man.
This after he went to prison once for having a "drug emporium" at his house along with his brother and was arrested for a Road Rage incident pulling a gun on someone. Meanwhile, the little girl he slammed into still has serious medical issues.
I am certain EVERYONE would get the same break he got.
Probably not the right forum but this really p*sses me off.
It’s infuriating to hear Reid was released. I would be shocked if Andy’s relationship with the governor premeditated this.
I’ll hesitate to make any judgement about Andy as a person or a father because we don’t know for sure - but I would question whether a release is helpful for Brit or just another way to enable him

Trade for Sutton, sign Samuel and draft another
I would be pumped to have Samuel and I think Brady would do well find ways to get him involved. My main concern is someone replace Gabe. Last year the offense stalled because there was no threat to go deep and outside of Diggs no other receivers could beat man coverage. They need a solid WR that can do both. Hopefully round 1

If you won the super bowl in the last 3 seasons i think you could make more of an argument to keep the band together.
Tre needed to be released because the contract didn't match the contributions, and he probably couldnt pass a physical. You have no idea what you're going to get from him.
Poyer needed to be released because honestly - he's 33, he has a bum elbow, and he just wasn't as quick or dynamic anymore. They used him a bunch as a linebacker simply for coverage chops over dodson, and i think they liked rapp enough doing his thing in the same spot. Faster, bigger hitterAlso with the free agency group there's just too many good players for so many jobs.
Morse was a tougher call, especially after moving bates - but honestly i thought they might have moved on from him last season so it didn't shock me.
I agree and would throw Hyde in the mix as well. The team needed to get younger either this season or next and I think it’s a self-aware move to make these changes -

I was seriously wondering if Mitch was let go so they could bring him back for 1 more year......Same for Po.
I don’t think so. That happens around training camp but not usually in March due to the dead cap. Morse for example…he cost the Bills around $8M in 2023.If the Bills were to re-sign him after releasing him it would still carry a $3M dead cap. So if he signed a one year contract for, say $6M, he’s actually more expensive in 2024.
Someone made a good point online while arguing that the “cap isn’t real.” They said moving on from Tre, Poyer, Mitch was more due to their age than it was the salary cap.

I'd expect they hope that Von turns things around with a full year and a full offseason since his injury and that they hope Epenesa maintains the role he had here.
But if Von is well and truly toast, they'd feel comfortable turning to Epenesa. Perhaps both he and Von 50/50 the starting job opposite Rousseau.
Von Miller and Shaw Lawson set the edge much better that AJ. They cant have him play all the snaps at DE-

You're acting as if I was saying that he's underperforming but that body comp is going to finally pay dividends.
I wasn't "making excuses". I'm pleased with his progression from Year 2 to 3 to 4. Over the past two seasons, he has performed well for a late 2nd Round Pick, off the bench rotational pass rusher. Were you expecting a sure fire Pro Bowler at Pick 50?
Subsequently, he wasn't overpaid for a 25 year old DE who brings what he brings.
I’m ok with re-signing him not as thrilled as you are. I’d like to see AJ play more consistent all around on the edge. While he’s gotten better at pass rushing and batting down passes, he’s also not very good against the run. In fact, at times he’s been a liability and his usage has been limited situationally.
Also a mid-2nd draft pick turning into a “Pro Bowler” is not so unordinary. There’s a reason why team teams covet Day 2 picks.

And he's been on an upward trajectory since. Over the past two seasons, he's been a different player entirely.
Is he a Superstar? No. But we're not paying him Superstar money. For a 25 year old Pass Rusher - this is a good price tag for what he brings.
That’s fine but you’re pretending that the body composition is an issue when he went through that 3 years ago…it’s no longer relevant.
It would be like me saying “Josh Allen is still recovering from his elbow injury”

I'll say this. If Beane had wanted to keep Davis as much as he was saying last year he would have found $13M AAV. That's a lot...but not a crippling amount. They were ready to upgrade the position.
You can say the same thing about every player who’s left the team this season, including Mitch Morse.
