  1. I still think OLB is a spot they can take. If they want a more explosive player I could see a guy supplanting Klein. Duggar would make sense. CB,WR, RB and DE would be other positions
  2. I find it interesting that Vernon Butler and Quinton Jefferson signed at the same time pretty much. Last year Beasley and Brown signed at the same time. If I recall correctly, Beane said something like he wanted them both at the same time so the signing of one of them wouldn’t scare off the other one. He must have done the same thing here with the DTs and speaks to the organization level that he executes things at.
  3. I wonder if the Patriots will call up the Indianapolis Colts to see if they can get Jacoby Brissett back from the Colts. It would be a good fit, a guy who is familiar with their system, has starting experience in the NFL and is now a backup in Indianapolis
  4. The biggest difference for the people complaining about the Diggs and Hopkins compensation comparison is that Hopkins is going to get a new deal probably in the 21-23 million dollar AAV. The Bills gave up a 1st rounder because Diggs will essentially take up half of that allowing for the Bills to spread out their cap to other positions. Much harder on the salary cap when you’d be paying Tre White 18-20 a year, Josh Allen 30-40 a year, and D’Andre Hopkins 20 plus. With a cap of 200 million, you’d be paying those 3 almost 80 million dollars or roughly 40-45% of your cap and you still need to give Dawkins and Edmunds big money in the near future
  5. I always liked Klein for some reason, esp in Carolina. Solid player. I’ll wait to see how the numbers shake out but the way Beane does business I’m sure it will be essentially a 2 year deal with a lot of escalators
  6. I’m surprised there has been nothing on DJ Reader so far. The Bills M.O. has been super tight with no leaks(didn’t have any outside of Frank Gore), and nothing on Reader has me thinking the Bills are in on him. Thought he’d be one of the first guys to go.
  7. Thats because Beane isn’t going to sign guys to ridiculous contracts who are average football players. The Spain deal is a great indicator, 5 mill a year but only 4.5 guaranteed and can get out of it after a year. Many aren’t looking for that type of contract on Day 1
  8. A guy on twitter says a big 49ers trade coming up. They have already paid Armstead and Dee Ford and will have to pay Bosa. I think the big time Dlineman who is going to get paid could be DeForest Buckner
  9. I’m thinking 3 years 28 million with about 15 guaranteed
  10. I think the Kroft and Star restructurings of opening up future money is more for Tre Whites and Dion Dawkins contracts
  11. Basically the Bills guaranteed his contract this year of 3.6 million out of the paycut. Got rid of the 3rd year so basically the Bills have him more guaranteed money probably locking him in from 2020 but have the flexibility to get out from under his contract
  12. I think if they are looking at it. Star makes good money for 2 more years then is gone. Reader will take his salary, and we’ll still have 2 years to pay Oliver. I think it makes sense long term but if your looking 2020 only it leaves you a little confused
  13. Like who? Beasley and Brown aren’t going anywhere. Andre Roberts stays for STs, McKenzie stays over either of those guys. So really we’re talking Duke Williams or Robert Foster(who wasn’t even really active most of the time). I think Duke has a much higher upside than Latimer at this point and Perriman has only had a. 1/2 good season in the NFL. If we’re talking Robert Foster than sure I guess they would take his spot on the inactives. 2 draft picks would in the first 4 rounds conceivably take McKenzie and Duke/Fosters spot in the roster or at worse McKenzie and Williams. The WR corps looks a lot better with Brown, Beasley, Jefferson(1st round) , Duke Williams, Andre Roberts, and a 4th rounder with STs capabilities than it does with either of those guys taking Williams spot.
  14. Amari Cooper and AJ Green are the only two guys who I believe can come in and unseat someone. Perriman or Latimer types aren’t going to beat our McKenzie who has been with this offense for multiple years. Its a bad year for Free Agent WRs. They need to draft two guys in the first 4 rounds imo
  15. As an FSU fan, what Cam Akers did behind FSUs abysmal offensive line was short of amazing. He has all the tools. He has breakaway speed, cutting ability, inside or outside the tackles, great pass catcher. His only knock is really his pass pro. He should be a 2nd rounder but if he drops to the 3rd he would be a great compliment to Singletary or vice versa
  16. Well his only real choice if the the Bengals draft him is sitting out a year and reentering the draft in 2021. If he does that he’ll be 25 at the end of his first year and 30 at the end of his first contract if he’s good. He isn’t a 21 year old he’d be prudent to start his career right away to try squeezing two big contracts out before he’s done
  17. I’ll start with Justin Jefferson from LSU, just think he’s one of those underrated guys in the process that becomes a star in the league like DAndre Hopkins Cam Akers from Florida State. His Oline was horrendous, still put up 1,000 yard seasons and big plays in the run and pass game. Would be an awesome 1-2 punch Alex Taylor South Carolina State. Awesome 3-5 rounder who has all the measurable to be a big time NFL tackle. Small school will hurt him but he could play LT or RT after we get the rawness out
  18. To me, in this age of football you need two dominant Corners to win in this league. We have one mad need another. If we are ever going to beat the Chiefs especially we need to be really good in the secondary and up front
  19. I think I’d be more inclined to give him the transition tag at 12 million and if someone else offers big money then you let him go. The only way I would franchise him would be if I had the intention of trading him but I can’t see him going for more than a couple mid rounders
  20. I think a guy who makes a ton of sense is Kyler Fackrell. Won’t command huge money, just hitting his prime at 28. 6’5 245 and is a pure Sam LB that can rush the passer a bit
  21. If Brady goes to the Raiders, it’s 100% them. NFL loves Divisional games in week 1, Brady Mahomes, New Las Vegas team , if not probably the Ravens
  22. I never understood immortalizing athletes in particular. I feel sorry for his family like I would anyone else’s family, esp losing a person so young, but I never met the guy, watched him play basketball, and don’t feel some overwhelming dread like some are portraying on social media. Young people die everyday who do great things that go unnoticed and don’t get any credit.
  23. Big difference in taxes with a huge family moving from California to Florida
  24. Isaiah Simmons looks damn good so far on that Clemson defense. Doing it all playing the downhill thumper, side to side run defender, blitzed, and in coverage so far. Early but super impressed.
  25. Jack Conklin. Likely to hit Free Agency and seems like a good character toughness fit that the Bills covet.
