Indeed. My pic was after Poyer but before Morse and Harty... And I think the spree will keep going...

Wegman's needs to rebrand their butcher section with a grinning Brandon Beane.

Some say, in a former life Brandon The Ripper was a surgeon. Others speculate he's even royalty... Will his spree ever end?

Beane is now..

Holy $***! Did not expect this. Beane is not being sentimental or emotional, but cold and calculating. If we want to win this attitude is required. I'm not necessarily agreeing with this specific move (and not arguing against it either) but the approach in general

It's hard on a human level but if we want to be a Super Bowl team, moves like this need to be made. You can't hang onto an aging player for sentimental reasons. At least not when you're in a poor cap situation.

Yeah, I totally get this. I haven't studied his tape and I don't know if the "lazy" tag is accurate or not. If so, it's a big red flag. I read in a combine interview that he likes to "vary" the speed of his routes: "I never run routes full speed," said Mitchell during Friday's press conference. "That's just a part of my game that allows me to run routes for the whole drive and mostly just feel like I'm in control. I'd like to know if the root of this, no pun intended, is laziness or something else.

These Cover 1 kids give me way more insight than any Bills beat reporter. Interesting that they like Mitchell and Legette a lot. They acknowledge Mitchell's apparently lazy route running as "vibing" on routes. His interview with the Bills should be interesting. But why do I feel like they are addicted to Dungeons and Dragons? Never saw this new guy before but he looks it too.

I'd take the DE or WR who has a better chance of being blue-chip. We have very few of those players and need more. But if Beane decides the DE has a brighter future and can be elite, not just 8-10 sacks, but elite, take him. But make damn sure you get a good receiver soon after.

I hear you. But I think many smart people think Mitchell will be a number 1 guy and he should be available close to where we pick. We'll see soon enough. If we got this DE, I wouldn't hate it — if we get a speed merchant later who's a bona fide number 2.

Don't mind some of his wokr (OUATIH was great) but never saw Deathproof... It looks like a Quentin kind of word.

Spotrac says the Bears pick up his 4 million per year deal for 2 years.

Thanks, guys. So Marquise Brown is 2 inches shorter and the same weight and Jordan Addison is the same height and 8 lb heavier. Not a huge history of precedents at this size... And I would argue that 8 lb makes a difference. If it doesn't subtract it from 165 and see if that doesn't scare the hell out of you. I think this kid could make a lot of big plays but I'd be willing to bet a couple good hits from some NFL safeties might take him out for a while...

Are there any examples of very successful WRs who are Worthy's height and weight — 165 lb at over 5'11"? I though he was 178 but that 165 number is not sitting well with me...

well, most of us want a WR but I wouldn't hate getting a guy with 23.3 sacks in the last 2 years and a player some call the most polished edge rusher in the draft. Now, if we did that, I would expect a trade up, again, for a guy like Legette or someone comparable... We'd lose a lot of draft capital in 2 trade-ups... but is getting the best pass rusher and an explosive receiver worth it? I've seen worse drafts.

USA Today reporting it is. Unreal.

Franchise tag can't be cheap. Projected at $20 million. That should limit their spending rather than extending his deal ala the Bills and making some FA splashes...

Yes, it's kinda cold at face value — but he got $20 million guaranteed from his last contract. If that's cold it beats the hell out of the heat I gotta live with.

[In my best Chris Rock voice] "Ok, I'll say it, I'll say it! Ann-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-ny rookie wide receiver we take in the first or second round will be better than GABE *****-IN' DA-VIS. That's right I said it. Gabe is a good guy, I will give you that, and he's made a few highlight plays, I'll give you that, but why do we have to pay him like a star? Is it his birthday or something?"

Excellent. This should take MIami back a couple notches in what they can spend on the rest of the team. I don't fear them anymore. Tyreek is 30 and can't be the same player for much longer.

Exactly. We're football fans. Not godd*** interior decorators.

First, I like any man whose name rhymes with "shindig." Second, I have no idea what "chartreuse" is.

I don't dispute that. But there's a thread for that. This thread is about a very particular theory that is now officially debunked.

He's under contract this 2024 season. Unless a restructure is 100% needed, there's no need for contract talks.

I wouldn't be against it. He turns 30 in late August so next year he would be 31. I wouldn't go beyond that. The only reason for letting him go (and after investing a 3rd round pick) I can think of is a macro D philosophy shift to more man and Douglas doesn't match up well there. In that case, why not try and trade him for a 4th or 5th? He played as well as you could have hoped for last season for the Bills.
