Beane Will let it play out this season. If he has a great season, then the man gets paid by someone. If he’s subpar, he may be had at a lessor price. I get teams with cap space are spending like drunken sailors looking to “win now”. Couple that with the expected jump in the cap over the next few years, and huge contacts will be the norm. If we could backload a contract, we’d be able to keep him. Not something you’d do for a 29 YO receiver. Unless he takes a hometown discount, he won’t be on the team next year. No way we can afford him. One more year and maybe we’d see enough cap jump to sign him. But would you want to pay top tier WR money for him then? It probably will be driven up even more.

Not a fan of Michael’s, but he should be tolerable without Collinsworth. .

Good pickup by the Colts at a lower price than I would have thought. See Ryan as a one or two year option for them. Baker has to be angry at himself for how badly he played this one. Thought he could shame the Browns into a trade to another team and the browns GM says no and then gets watson. With all this movement mayfield doesn’t have many places to go. I see maybe Seattle trading for him and an outside shot of the Panthers. If he gets released I think that opens the pool a little and could see the Giants and maybe Dolphins as dark horses.

Great interview, some cool insight on how he runs his ship. Talks to Josh frequently, has his pro-personnel people act target 5 teams and get all the dirt. Good stuff.

Love how much he loves Bills Mafia! He gets excited every time he says it!

Was watching the Bills/WFT game from last season. McKissic didn’t seem to be all that special. Don’t see he would have been our RB2. That being said, Moss had a heck of a game.

The players have a union. Coaches aren’t in it. NFLPA wouldn’t allow a non-union person to come in and get paid for doing the players work,

I’d wonder if we have the cap space. After this week, anything is possible!

Trubisky was a luxury at backup. Doesn’t work that way in the NFL. Beane and Co. know how to build a roster and won’t toss a scrub behind Josh. It’ll be some one with ability who comes at a good price and would give the Bills a chance in case of short term emergency. I’d be very surprised if Barkley is number two.

I’d be surprised if he’d publicly ask to be traded to the Colts unless there has been feelers. Problem is they don’t have a first this year. I’m sure the Browns made the trade for watson expecting knowing they’d get pics for mayfield. Is he worth a first? Doubtful. But in todays NFL, I wouldn’t be surprised if they did. He has shown flashes and maybe a guy like Reich could save his career. The Texans D when he was playing was very good, doesn’t Thisbe that in Cleveland.

Disgusting how this sweepstakes played out. Surprised by the number of teams that openly tried to get him with his legal issues. That being said, he doesn’t scare me. We lost in the playoffs to him with a 2nd year Josh and a defense not as good as our current one. Josh is true pro in every sense and hasn’t hit his ceiling yet. Watson is who he is and won’t be taking the Browns to anything special.

He isn’t going anywhere. Yeah, could be better but I expect better play out of him with and upgraded d-line. When the d-line does their job, less responsibility at the 2nd level.

RIP. Was one of the first dedicated NFL reporters I recall. Seemed like a good dude, didn’t take himself too seriously.

I believe they targeted Von from the beginning. Especially if he reached out to them. Both team got through the initial free agent frenzy window, to the period you reach out to your own more. LA tried, Buffalo was in his ear. Buffalo was his choice based on money and Josh. And yes, McKissic was not the deciding factor. You don’t clear cap space and change philosophy to target a single guy that quickly. McKissics contract $$$ had no impact on the Bills ability to sign Von. Plenty of players to approach on a restructure.

Wow. Beane not happy. Doesn’t usually call anyone out. Good for him

Different fits and fabrics. I believe the Bills store one is more “game like”, the nfl.com is the Nike version of the NFL Proline jersey. That’s why I got the nfl.com one, better fitting.

Whoever Josh wants in the QB room is good with me. That being he is the Davis Webb replacement of player/coach. Cant be the primary backup.

Stunned at this trade. Adams probably didn’t want to have to deal the garbage heap that is Aaron Rodgers any more. Especially if GB really did offer more cash. Rodgers must not really care to win if he knew Adams would not be signed when he got his contract. Ill say it again, I Love Josh Allen!

Also on NFL.com. Less expensive Nike jersey. Better fitting one in my opinion. Says “00”, but so does the Howard jersey, expect it to be 40. Link

Loved the Settle presser! Seems like a genuine dude. Lots of energy! Glad it’s a two year deal, hope he tears it up!

Moves like this let the players know the team is serious about taking the next step. And the cool part, sounds like Von is just as giddy to strap it up with the Bills! What an awesome feeling this is after years of watching other teams makes these moves.

You have to be Josh-ing me with that question. It’s the number of years he hopes to play!

Webb is the player/coach at QB3 for the . Daboll saw first hand the work he did helping Josh, that’s why he signed him. He ain’t getting cut.

Draft picks important to the salary cap. Locks young guys in at what should be cap friendly numbers filling out a roster.

Probably their number one choice. Wonder how much they really wanted Jones? Most likely the backup plan.
