  1. No, no, he killed this guy and wears his face as a mask.
  2. Also remember Sanders is still only 21 years old and 6'4". He can still add mass to his frame.
  3. With the 4 big picks we moved up 15 in the second and moved down only 10 to the top of the third. And we guaranteed getting the player Beane wants. That's fair. If you don't like the pick that's a separate issue.
  4. As per @GunnerBill's thought that we did NOT LOSE 2 seconds... Look at it this way: 1. We moved up 15 spots from 56 to 41 2. We moved down 10 spots from 62 to 72. We lost one of our two fourths and got pick 240. That's not egregious at all to go up 15 spots. We only move down 10 with our second 2nd-rounder.
  5. I'm aligned with you except for 2026: I think/hope they let him walk, get a comp, and draft a low-cost replacement. I think Cook is very good but far from irreplaceable, and his $12 to $15 million can be better spent elsewhere when you're paying a franchise quarterback. In a world with no cap, I'd say pay him what he wants, but paying one position more means paying another less, and I don't think RBS are that hard to replace.
  6. It just aggregates content that's out there. I highly doubt AI is forming its own opinions on whom the Bills should pick. I've seen results from AI that are impressive (at times) and also flat-out incorrect. It's a tool, and often a tool that should be flushed.
  7. Not thrilled but I suppose it's relatively cheap insurance. I don't expect Tre to start if we draft a CB in the first couple rounds (which I expect) but if he's making $2 million before hitting incentives it's not a big deal.
  8. Turning 32 in August, coming off a torn Achilles. No thanks. \ We might as well call Tre White if we want old guys with a torn Achilles.
  9. Using all three of our top picks on Epenesa-level athletes.
  10. Apologies if posted, but I have not seen this after a search and I think it will please some, including myself: "Per source, the Bills have held a private workout and multiple Zooms with Tennessee WR Dont’e Thornton," Talbot says. "He’s had great conversations with the team. The Volunteers WR has blazing speed (4.3) and elite size (6’5”). He’s a true downfield threat (21.9 YPC)." https://www.sportingnews.com/ca/nfl/buffalo-bills/news/report-bills-very-interested-star-receiver-incredible-speed-donte-thornton-nfl-draft/059a5a5a2d3d60dfc3e19584
  11. Anything's a possibility but it all hinges on how the draft plays out and Beane's board. You don't necessarily go into a draft saying, "We need four second-rounders," because you don't know who will be there and who will be gone when the Bills' first-round pick comes up. It's a possibility later on, not a must-do right now.
  12. I'd love the Bills to take a chance on mid-round size/speed guy who is still developing. Horton just gobbles up the turf with those long strides. Looks like a better route runner than Dont'e Thornton who is even bigger and faster and a good blocker but doesn't seem to have much of a route tree — yet. I'd love to take a chance on either guy. We burned a 3rd round pick last year on a backup DT; take a chance on a WR with size and speed this year.
  13. Ok, this should get some flames: I think Cook is relatively easy to replace and last year was his career year — he's not gonna get close to 16 TDs ever again. He's good, just not great and if he leaves, no big deal.
  14. The cost would be nuts.
  15. Not sure a guy turning 32 around week 6 will not hit the wall that Poyer crashed into...
  16. I wanted to stay in one of my exes but we don't always get what we want...
  17. Thanks, but sorry, I don't get the second part: I believe he just gets paid based on how many games he's played. Paid according to his rookie deal, but prorated? So if cut before the season he's no longer earning his rookie deal but if cut after the season starts he has to earn his rookie deal numbers? That sounds confusing but I probably have it wrong. Thanks!
  18. Do you still take on that salary if he's released? Not for a vet. Are rookies handled differently according to the CBA?
  19. My hope: 1. DT 2. Edge 3. CB2 4. Speed WR The rest is depth and we can find cheap depth in unsigned guys.
  20. Is it a priority? No. Am I upset they've banned a gesture associated with street gangs? No.
  21. He looked finished as a difference maker in the second half of his last year with us. But at least he's had over a year to tear to age and get injured. I'm sure he'll be worth every penny.
  22. Because of the KC SB loss this year, I had totally dismissed their three-in-a-row-and-counting... Well, if that's not a fun thought to start a day, what is.
  23. That's not what I said or what Bosa said. He still believes he has talent and makes a difference on the field. He knows time is running out on his career and he wants to win. Will he stay healthy and make a difference? Who knows. But I bet the games he does play — however many or few they are — he helps our pass rush a lot. If he's a good teammate that's all I care about. We'll see if he's that or a lockerroom cancer soon enough...
  24. Maybe it's an act (I don't think so) but Bosa's presser with the Bills showed him to be a humble guy who wants to contribute and win. He acknowledges he's getting old (not many guys at 29 say that) and that he's not the difference that will put this team over the top but he wants to be part of this team and win it all. I'm rooting for him. https://www.buffalobills.com/video/joey-bosa-s-first-press-conference-as-a-buffalo-bill-unbelievable-fanbase
  25. I'm sure if Diggs is ever considered they ask Josh before even investigating a deal. You don't commit a quarter of a billion of new money to your league MVP QB. and then let some old diva with a dramatic history come back without running by your QB first. I suspect Josh is happier without Diggs. Diggs acted like the leader when he was here and Josh was quieter. Josh is now the leader and probably likes the drama-free atmosphere 1000% more without Diggs. If Diggs were 27, it might be a question but not at his age.
