If the NFL insists on doing this, IMO the best way is to send 4 teams over. Maybe the whole AFC South. Have Jax vs Tennessee and Indy vs Houston the first week for instance. Then switch dance partners and schedule Jax vs Indy and Tennessee/Houston. That way everyone has the same benefit of being in place for 2 weeks.
love this!

See you left out RB, I think it may be a battle between Johnson and Gore Jr with Gore winning the battle based on pedigree.
Why the hate on Johnson? Everyone has him as a cut. He ran hard last year. His pass protection was fine and he has a low cap hit.
Why is everyone acting like he was Reggie Bush running backwards in mud? You have to have some experience there besides Cook.

It saves money on what exactly?
Design, engineering mostly. You are not reinventing the wheel and any gliches from the first build are corrected.
Terry has to pinch pennies somewhere until he can offload the Sabres.

The best 5 start- we will know mid August who they are and who the next 3 of 5 backups are. The 9th and 10th linemen will be tough calls.

Nothing changes with expectations. I expect the Bills to compete for and win the AFCE. I expect them to be one of the final 4 teams in the AFC competing for the Super Bowl. What happens after this season into next off-season depends on the results of this year.
they retooled-just like Baltimore, KC, the cheats, Indy with Manning and a bunch of teams have done through the years to remain competitive. I still believe the 13 second year was our year and we would have retooled hard right after that Super Bowl but we short circuited. We ran it back, panicked a bit, but just got older and into cap hell doing that. Now we are back on a good path.
If you have QB1 on the roster you are always in contention. so much depends on matchups, injuries, schedules, luck etc that they will be in the mix and can win it all in any of the next 6-8 years.
Rarely does the team that everyone picks to win it-actually wins it. We have a good a shot as anyone-especially with lower expectations and the realization mid season that the new players are just as good/better than the recent versions of those we lost this offseason

Rarely discussed but I think the league would be better if RGIII had made it. He’s a really interesting dude.
i didn't like him as a player- he was over hyped by the league, but appreciate him now.

Maybe it's Beane trying to make sure we get the 3rd round comp pick next time.
Ha ha ha. That is exactly what I thought!

They just can’t help themselves. Right back to defense we go. And then said defense can’t get one stop when it matters in a big spot.
It's tough not to agree with this statement. 😕 at least they keep trying to add D talent so no matter what McDermott calls we get the stop.
-
there are a lot of WRs getting big money who were not drafted in the top 10-see St Brown, Diggs etc.
I feel Beane panics in rd 1 more than not, swings for a boom/bust in rd 2 and then settles in and picks good football players.
i'd love to see him just let the board come to him and pick best available in rd 1 and not reach/panic like the Elam pick

I thought Williams profiled as close to Allen as anybody I have seen so far. I don’t see him being able to get to Josh’s level, but his ability to create outside of the script. His improvisation and playmaking will be rivaled by few. How can he perform within the confines of the play? I question that. He will be a guy that could have success early only to hit a funk once coordinators take away the basic things he wants to do.
my worry about him is getting injured he is not tiny like the AZ baseball player but he is also not as big and thick as Josh. I think he breaks down in December every year.

I honestly don't think any QB in this years class becomes a franchise QB. Mid level at best IMO.
me as well. the Bears dumped Fields for 'Fields'. 6 franchises will set themselves back this year for 4 more years.

I have concerns on the defensive side of the ball. Specifically, with replacing Poyer/Hyde. Replacing their production/leadership will not be easy. Need some leaders to step up on D.
As long as we have JA17, a Super Bowl should always be the goal. There are alot of shoes to fill going into this season. I do like that we aren’t really coming up in conversation for Super Bowl contenders. I think we get a bit overlooked this year, which I think will be good for this team.
Yes

My blockbuster trade prediction is:
Bills receive:
Justin Jefferson
2025 4th
Vikings receive:
2024 1st
2025 2nd
WR1 money is something we do not need

I used this draft chart, it's exactly even if you consider MN 2025 the equivalent of mid-third rounder this year (general rule is a 1-round discount for year-ahead picks).
https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart-Rich-Hill.asp?RequestTeam=buf
Also you move up at least a round back into the end of day 3 in both scenarios as well
I appreciate the work you put in on this. Still don't like options 2 and 3. Too much to give up in mho but that's why we are on this board- to discuss these things.

Thought it would be fun to try to predict some draft day trades to see which (if any) come to fruition (or close) after the fact
My three favorite:
Bills send #28, #60, and MN 2025 2nd rounder to Seattle for #16 and #81. Bills draft Brian Thomas Jr. with #16 and maintain a 2024 day 2 pick.
Bills send #28, #60, #144 and MN 2025 to Carolina for #33, #39, and #101. Bills draft two second tier WR's at #33 & #39, get the first pick on day 3. Could easily use one of the five 4th/5th rounders to trade back into day 2 from #101.
Bills send #28, #60, and MN 2025 to Washington for #36, #40, and #100. Bills draft two second tier WR's at #36 & #40, get the last pick of day 2 and maintain all picks on day 3.
i do not like options 2 and 3 at all. why give up the MN #2 next year AND move back just to pick up another 2 this year. I didn't look up the value chart data but i don't see how the numbers work in our favour.

I tend to think that with as expensive as WR contracts are getting, and as many good ones as are coming out in the draft each year, and as quickly as many of them seem to be able to hit the ground running...
WR may become the next position where it's smart to "turn and burn". Draft a guy, pay him on a rookie wage scale for four years (or five if he's a first rounder), then trade him or let him walk and get a compensatory pick. Wash, rinse, repeat. Only the elite guys will merit those mega-extensions.
If the supply of good, draftable WRs continues to go up, and the cost to re-sign them continues to climb, the wave will crest, and they'll eventually start going the way of RBs.
Maybe. Just maybe.This is the way

I think Bass' issues may stem from Martin as a holder. I think it's one of the reason they brought Haack back.
this is it- bjorquez sucked as a holder and our current punter Martin sucks as a holder as well.
3 hours ago, Buffalo716 said:I already mentioned this that Corey b struggles were vastly overrated
He was not missing laces every single snap.. I went through every single hold of his career in Buffalo and he did not have over 8 snaps where he did not get the laces around
Including extra points... Hundreds of holds... 8 didn't get laces
There has never been a punter who has been fired because he has been bad at holding... Especially if you're a good punter
Corey B didn't get re signed because he would kick a 60-yard punt... Then Shank it for 20 yards... Then call his own fake field goal
But he's good enough that he instantly gets a job everywhere he goes because his holding problems are overblown... It is a repetition thing
Holder God is the funniest thing I've ever heard... Corey B's new kicker in Cleveland called him the best holder he's ever had
It's not hard to learn if you practice.. Corey B called his own fake kick.. that's where his head is at
i don;t know man. i see every packer game where i live and the kicking game was terribile when he started holding. it is more than just laces- is the ball placed correctly in the X and Y directions to mesh with the kickers stroke? this was a big part of his and Martin's problem.

My attempt to convince myself the sky isn't falling:
- A lot of people believe Kincaid will turn into a go-to receiver.
- A lot of people believe Shakir is blossoming into a good starter.
- A lot of people believe Curtis Samuel is a good starter.
- It's still a very deep WR class with a ton of guys that project as starting caliber WRs.
- The Chiefs just won the Super Bowl in which their top receivers were a declining (albeit still very good) Travis Kelce, Rashee Rice, and Marques Valdes-Scantling.
If all of that stuff is true, we should still have a pretty good group of receivers even without trading up in the draft and probably a better group than some of the other contenders have had recently.
I don't know how much of that I actually believe though lol.
Samuel takes over Diggs routes. I saw his highlight film and i was-those are Diggs' routes, this won't work. now i get it. The questions for me is who will stretch the field? Shakir or a rookie maybe unless they expect Kincaid to be Kelce.

My bias against McDermott is well documented.
Wondering how others view his post-season PC and recent interview calling critics narrow minded. He also stated its hard to win in the NFL. I recall a prior HC pilloried on this site for saying the exact same words.
My take on the PC was that he was very defensive. Without even being asked. He launched into a defense of his tenure as coach even dating back to prior seasons.
And now he calls critics narrow minded for wondering if the Bills will win a SB with him as HC. You have to belive at this point the thought has crossed Beane and Pegula's mind. He's trying to defend at best status quo to perhaps taking a step or two back from 13 seconds.
Then the most ridiculous statement of all.
"We're looking for Josh to really be that face of the franchise, like he's been, and continue to evolve."
I mean WTF. What team has he been coaching? Does he think Hyde and Poyer were the face of the franchise?? Is he trying to lay blame on Allen? Without Allen McDermott might be coaching DBs in Kansas City. Was Allen on the field when the defense crumbled multiple times against Denver,Philadelphia, and others. KC only stopped themselves in the playoff game. If not for a goal line fumble the Bills are not even close in that game.
It may not seem that I'm open minded but I really try. I've gave McDermott praise many times last year.
So what does the board think?
For those that crucified Jauron how do you take the It’s hard to win in the NFL line?
For those that defend McDermott, what do you all think?
13 seconds cost us a Super bowl-that was our year.
