He will be starting this Sunday. He already knows their playbook. Gonna be must see television to be honest

For a ceiling? I mean the first name that popped into my mind was an early career Martellus Bennett who was a great blocker, had solid hands and caught about 30-40 balls a year. Late career Martellus Bennett I would say no because he eventually turned into a receiving monster which I’m not sure Hawes has in him

My guess is it was a multitude of things. Bills players obviously in that scenario we’re celebrating a huge play that just occurred and it was likely that the whole team was celebrating in some fashion. The play was also a sudden change of possession, FG units are made up of all 3 sides of the ball. It was unlikely all 11 guys were corralled in time after the celebrating and were all over the sideline to be found. The FG at the time was crucial in the game. The Bills were up 3 points before the XP. Don’t want to take the chance of missing because we rushed the FG team in bad weather vs taking your time and making it a touchdown game

Wow Hurts was awful tonight. He's also my fantasy quarterback but luckily its the last week of the regular season for my league and I already locked up a playoff spot.

MJ Devonshire was originally at Pitt and its obvious the Bills have a really good relationship with the Pitt secondary coach

Why would Cincinnati release him? I see people saying this. If that’s the case why not Russell Wilson or Jameis Winston etc. I’d think it’s more likely an NFC team would release their guy but technically you’re not allowed to tamper right now with guys under contract nor should the player know that a team is interested. I know that doesn’t always happen obviously with Slay and Philly but they shouldn’t

don’t know how old he was but Steve DeBerg played forever , not sure of Grandpa status though

I feel like we don’t go to boards of other teams mostly because in comparison to here those boards are dead. We also have a lot of knowledgeable fans on this board as well, though we do like everyone who have people talking out their ass as well. As for the other part, if you tell me I can be the 5 seed with Pittsburgh as the 4 seed and then my road is a NE/Den team in the divisional round I’ll take my chances. Doesn’t mean Buffalo will win all 3 games either but I like those odds over playing a Houston or Baltimore team or even KC if they squeeze into the 7 seed

I mean they are down Jones, Richardson for the season and Leonard apparently is hurt. You’re not picking up a street Free Agent or UDFA and winning. A guy like Rivers, sadly, is probably a good option at this point

Yup I’ve said it too Miami is kind of a weird dark horse. Their schedule isn’t easy but none of those games thru can’t win. I want them to lose to the Steelers though so Pittsburgh can stay a top of North

I said it in another thread that it’s hilarious and Hendrickson played this injury perfectly. Im going to hold out because I’m way underpaid and want an extension. Bengals refuse to extend him and give him like an 18 million dollar pay increase. Gets hurt all season and might be too old and injured for the Bengals , who are financially conscious, now to franchise him , so he’ll still be a Free Agent next year , healthy and get a good contract. I usually don’t advocate for this, but with Mike Brown being a cheap ass I’m okay I’m with it in this scenario

No and no when it comes to do we pick him up

The NFC is brutal this year and the Bucs taking up a spot is a killer for those teams. I played with the simulator and I have either the Lions or the Bears missing out on the playoffs………at 11-6 that would be rough

I don’t disagree that WR and DE are also a priority and a high one. I think that’s why Taron Johnson gets kept unless there is a player they just can’t pass up on the board in the draft or in free Agency. The bad news is we won’t have the draft pick capital of the last two years. Now certainly Beane can manipulate that with trade downs and trading away players( Keon Coleman ) etc but as it stands right now they are not in a great spot to add too many impact guys through the draft. If we cut the usual suspects for next year. Curtis Samuel, Taylor Rapp, Tyler Bass and so on and the cap increases like last year we should have somewhere in the neighborhood of 40 million under the cap which seems like a lot but comparably it’s not

So when I mean 2nd level I mean MLB/WLB/NCB. I actually think our back 4 for the future is set. Benford, Hairston, Bishop, Hancock. The loss of Strong(if he is lost) is big because it would have given the Bills a solid cheap 3rd CB. We have zero depth though in the back but usually you can find backup safeties for cheap. I could see them bringing back Thompson like you said and he has played well when he’s played but that’s always been the problem with him. He’s always getting injured. I don’t think you can rely on him for 17 games. I think you have to keep Dorian but I think to this point he’s proven to be a good backup and Special teams guy more than a Starter. Bernard won’t be gone but they should replace him as soon as it’s feasible to do because he’s an average player on a bad contract who is also injury prone. This is where you run into issues. If your not going to replace Bernard, and your not going to replace Taron Johnson, then the only area to upgrade is Milanos spot and adding a guy in round 3 or 4 won’t make much of a difference. That guy has to be drafted in round 1 or 2. I think that’s why the Bills were highly linked to Carson Schwesinger last year in the lead up to the draft and honestly is looking like a great pick for Cleveland. Then we need to address DE, DT, WR, IOL.
