We are the betting favorites to win the division and have the fifth-best odds to win the Super Bowl. It’s not like the media wasn’t running stories last off-season about how the Jets and Dolphins have passed the Bills.
ETA: fifth behind last year’s four finalists.

Couldn't Diggs be traded with a June 1st designation?
I don’t think so, but that’s a guess. Also interested if someone knows for certain.

In fairness, basically everyone disagrees with the OP.

Fairburn said this week he’ll be back relatively soon, but didn’t give a date.

I thought he was trying to punch the ball out.

Anyone else afraid he’s going to go to Miami?

yep. 1st round bye is massive.
regarding the "neutral site" AFC title game concession, this is garbage, as getting screwed out of the opportunity to have a 1st round bye is a huge loss. I like the idea of adding an 8th playoff team and letting both the #1 and #2 seeds have byes.
I thought the point of adding an eighth playoff team was that no one would have a bye.

Is he even allowed to come back? I thought the Bills put him on season-ending IR.
My understanding is that that’s not a thing anymore. You don’t have to designate players die return when you put them on IR. Everyone is eligible to return, up to eight a year.

Will McDermott wear an ",I want it colder" shirt?
So hard to imagine McDermott wearing a shirt with any kind of message.

Even that article says the Raiders use outside grades in free agency, meaning that, when the organization doesn't have access to inside info, those grades are as good as anything the team can do itself. Suggests value to me.

This is a surprisingly rich contract. $8.5 million cap his in 2023, only $1.5 million in savings if he's released. They clearly preferred him to Harrison Phillips at the same money.
Bills are already down to $15 million in 2023 cap space, if the cap goes up $10 million. And that's with Edmunds, Knox and Poyer as free agents. They must be counting on the cap going up a lot more than $10 million.

Maybe the link has been updated, but I am seeing 7 of 12 picking the Bills to make it, five to win it.

While he was born in Rochester, he grew up in Endicott, NY.
And the Jaguars were his favorite team growing up.
Thank you, that's what I was looking for.

+ Chandler Jones
Fournette would be great too!
I know Jones is from Rochester. Does anyone know if he's still connected to the area/would see this as an opportunity to win a Superbowl with his hometown team?

I would start Bates

We were the best in the game last year and now we're terrible. We can move the ball with ease down the field but can't do anything inside the 10. We have no real running threat down there and should just spread em out n throw.
We were 12th in the league last year. We are 6 percent worse at scoring touchdowns this year, or about one in 16 possessions.

Since 2017 they've had big road wins every year (17 Atlanta, 18 Min, 19 DAL, 20 NE/SF/LV). If at this point you are still looking for proof of them being legit idk what to tell you
That Atlanta win was huge at the time.

True. But we don’t know what they’ve made in profit from the Bills though (dividends are included in S&P returns). Those profits could’ve been reinvested in the S&P or something else. Plus owning the Bills likely had a positive impact on some of their other investments. And soon the team’s value will be further increased by the new (probably heavily subsidized) stadium.
Yeah, it wasn't meant as a serious point, just some context. I actually left out dividends - if they reinvested dividends, they'd have $3.4 billion.

Still a hefty increase from the $1.4B the Pegulas paid.
If they invested in an S&P fund instead, they'd have over $3 billion now.

So, really, why care if a multimillionaire doesn’t get even more money? Josh has enough money right now to never need a job for the rest of his life.., I just don’t get this one percent worship thing…, Josh as the team QB on the team I follow is fine, but he is a multimillionaire and he is about to get even more money he doesn’t actually need, so why the concern for his fame and financial well-being? I just can’t wrap my mind around ball washing one percenters…
Go Bills!!!
The more he gets from endorsements, the more he's willing to forego from the Bills?

Other than Milano, 5th round has been much of wasteland for Bills picks for years. As an O-lineman, his odds are even worse--especially since they drafted another one in the 3rd.

Over. Especially with that 17th game.

The Redskins game is at The ‘Cross (that’s what everyone is calling it now, right???)
It will forever be Bills Stadium to me.

Similar kind of thing with OL; we re-upped Feliciano and Boettger and we have Ford, but we signed a couple guys in Lamp and Douglas who have seen the field, and who I'm sure would like to compete to see the field here.
Does anyone know if Boettger has signed his tender?
A visual argument against trading down & for trading up

Using your hits and misses, a 52% success rate in Round 1 (11 of 21) vs. a 27% success rate in Rounds 2 and 3 (14 of 52).
So, you’d be better off trading down, getting a 2 and a 3 for a 1, and giving yourself a cumulative 54% chance at success.
