Yeah never argued it didn’t. I only objected to the Bills trading for him, I don’t care what the Brownies do.

True, you can get a Listenbee in the 6th, or even another bust of a WR in the first, but it wouldn’t make sense for the Bills to trade for Amari given what he makes, Diggs makes, and Davis is soon to make.

Too many cost-controlled, fast WRs coming out in this draft to justify trading for Cooper and that salary.

Hey, man, this is a Chandler Jones thread! 😂

Sign me up for Jones and a 1DT (Davis?) but sorry, did I suggest Tremaine needed to be cut?

There’s a whole lotta smoke coming out of the chimney these days. For a team up against the cap, could they seriously have interest in Amari Cooper? Didn’t the Cowpokes say they were cutting him? How verifiable are all these accounts?

Here you go with your “hate, hate, hate” nonsense again. As I’ve told you before, I don’t hate the player, never called him trash or said he sucked, but if an opinion doesn’t align with your “logic” it’s described as “hate.” I responded to Yatta above as for why I referenced Edmunds in the Chandler Jones thread. Sure I could’ve left it with an ambiguous “do everything up to and including trading the player with the large contract other teams may value,” but I put a name on it. Waaah. Waaah. You must be an older guy, huh? Your memory escapes you. We’ve had this back and forth about Edmunds before, I said he wasn’t an impact defender, you said he was - much in the same way Deion Sanders was an impact defender because teams didn’t throw his way. Do you not remember your own words? You made the laughable comparison. Scary and unbelievable, I know.

Is it just me, or does McDuffie sound like Doug Whaley? Voice and speech patterns.

I referenced Edmunds because I think it’s the one exorbitant contract (where the player has value to other teams) that the Bills could get out of and apply towards a legitimate threat like Jones. It wasn’t an intention to hijack the thread and make it about Edmunds and the subsequent posts never went there. I hear you though, it’s a topic discussed ad nauseam.

This isn’t a real account.

Opinions, we all have them. And the fact that Edmunds is on a guaranteed $12.7M/yr contract when that money can be better applied towards a pass rusher like Chandler Jones is my opinion. Edmunds isn’t worth that sort of coin, especially when we’re up against the cap. You don’t have to agree. You also don’t have to go on these “Edmunds is great! Our GM says so!” crusades all the time someone disagrees with you. It’s like you take it personally when a poster doesn’t believe he’s deserving of his salary or hype and you accuse the poster of “hate,” it’s ridiculous. If and when Edmunds is signed by another team I won’t even tag you to throw it in your face, because I don’t care that much. Here’s a newsflash for you: everything our GM says is not gospel. But I think you know that already… except when it involves Edmunds. Continue to tell me how he takes away the middle of the field and how QBs are scared to throw his way because his coverage skills are akin to Deion Sanders. I actually left your name out the last time I referenced this phrase and just called you “a poster” because I didn’t want to embarrass you. Now I don’t care. Your irrationality is laughable.

He’s currently got a salary that could be better utilized elsewhere. No Edmunds hate here, that’s just reality. Take your blinders off. It’s what Brady did for years, he was never the highest paid QB in the league as far as I know.

The timing of it all was really weird. Watson was vocal about leaving the Texans and all of a sudden all these women came crawling out of hiding to prosecute him? Hmm. Watson definitely is no angel, but did he rape those women or force them to do anything against their will ala R Kelly? Guess we’ll never know but I have my doubts. I’m sure they were all well paid after their “massage sessions” as well.

Do whatever you gotta do to fit his contract under the cap, up to and including trading Edmunds’ $12.7M/yr figure.

My fault, I thought Beane signed the safety duo. His FA record is even less impressive then.

Doesn’t surprise me the Bills aren’t in on Wagner according to this report. With TBD favorites like TJ Watt and Ertz going elsewhere last season, it doesn’t seem like Beane is enamored by the splashy names. His splashiest signing, Micah Hyde, who wasn’t even an every down player in GB, was half a decade ago.

Could happen, but it’s entirely up to Cody Ford and what he decides to do in the off-season. If he’s serious about his career he’ll check into one of those OL academies and then show up in the best shape of his life. Nothing so far has shown he’s that type of guy though, besides words.

There wasn’t anything we didn’t know in that article, but thanks for posting. One day, years into the future when the team looks decidedly different, maybe those who do know will speak.

If Edmunds were to be traded, I wouldn’t care if it was in the AFC or NFC, he wouldn’t worry me all that much as an opposing defender. And if there was ever a scenario in which Josh needed a yard or two for a first down and Edmunds was the obstacle towards getting that yardage, I’d be willing to bet any amount of money that Josh picks up that first down at least 7/10 times.

If Beane is worth his salt as a GM, he will trade Edmunds before the 2nd contract becomes necessary. Eager to see what happens.

But Snyder and his crew know more than all of us, right? We’re just randos on a message board. I’m sure it’ll work out as great as the knowledgeable Colts giving up a 1st round pick the year prior. NFL GMs, including Beane, can’t be questioned, or so I heard that here…

This sort of ineptitude used to be us, the Bills.

Those wanting DE Jermaine Johnson or one of the marquee RBs would be disappointed by that list. Great to see so many interior OL players though.

About 60 air yards from the 25 to the 15, then bounces down to the 1. I’d take him with a 5th rounder at the earliest, maaaybe in the 4th if someone isn’t there that I like, but this draft is all about depth at skill positions, so that’s unlikely. It’s also likely he’ll either go in the 3rd or 4th.

“Legal tampering” begins Monday the 14th.
