This is a really weird thread. the Yankees took out their brooms in KC tonight. Mahomes sat front row watching his team lose this week. now if we could just get the other New York team to win in KC.

One more reason to hate that Phony Tony Dungy. Even if he did vote for him, I can still hate him. despise that guy.

I was just taking my daughter to her friends house and flipped on 105.3 the fan and Bryan Broaddus was talking about Von Miller. He said Dallas is interested in him and he would be protection for them against the parsons contract situation dragging past camp. He said he was going to give a scouting report on him later i guess. Can't wait to hear that.

Joey Bosa is going to need someone his age to talk to while he is standing on the sideline in his jeans all year. So this is perfect!

Good Lord. People have lost their minds.

He is currently like the 42nd highest ish paid running back in the league.

The franchise tag can be used as a temporary contract/ place holder to give them extra time to work on a long term deal. This way he can not go to free agency. like I said though and you did too I do not believe they use it, it’s not really something they do. They would probably let him go get offers like they normally do.

They have the option of the franchise tag also. the bills rarely use it but it’s there if they want to.

Sometimes thats true. She knows her stuff and is probably guessing that if they were interested in him before the draft they may still be interested at the right price.

Based on what? The guy has gotten better in each of the last two offseasons. What evidence do you have that Cook has not and is not working to be a better blocker/pass protector?

Once Upon a time Henry was poor in pass protection.

Mina Kimes just casually throwing Buffalo in there.

The bills could not handle his salary I do not think in a trade situation.

You want James Cook to take less than Josh Jacobs took in march of 2024? The NFL is a production business. James Cook has produced in his two seasons starting. Compare Cook and Jacobs 2023 and 2024, Cook became a starter in 2023 its the fair place to start. Cook has 3 rushed for 3 yards less than Jacobs in 90 less carries. Cook has accounted for for 2 more TD's total in the regular season than Jacobs and in the postseason he has 2 more TD's then him. So again, The NFL is a production business. There is no way in which the Bills can offer James Cook less money than Josh Jacobs received 15 months ago. Throw in the fact that Cook is younger and has less wear and tear plus he is a perfect fit in the offense. The Bills are in a tough spot here. They decided to pay under performing Defensive players and WR's who produce less than cook does. Cook deserves a raise and I hope he stands his ground. I guarantee you every player in that locker room does too. Letting Cook walk over money when a lot of under performing Defensive players were resigned irregardless if they took less or set the market will draw some double takes from players in the locker room. and yes I understand RB has been deemed the position you don't pay because so many teams have used RB by Committee the last 20 years or so but that should not supercede The Bills as an organization doing what is best for the team to win in the near future. This type of thing is not one size fits all unless you are a backwards hat wearing youtube scout who obsesses over groupthink. The Bills need to get this done ASAP. I love Ray Davis. I think he will be even better this year but Cook put the work in and his skillset is unique. He should be just viewed as an offensive skill player the way they turned OLB into "Edge" etc.

Well usually these guys end up with former coaches because of the familiarity and the amount of risk involved. So His DC's in GB were Mike Pettiine - Currently the Assistant Head Coach/OLB Coach in Minnesota Joe Barry - Currently the Linebackers coach and run game coordinator in Miami Secondary coaches in GB Jason Simmons - Currently the defensive pass game coordinator in Washington Jerry Gray - Currently the Assistant Head Coach/Defense in Atlanta Joe Whitt Jr. - Currently the Defensive Coordinator in Washington.
