This seems more likely

You know what I meant, ya wisenheimer!

Letting highly drafted RBs walk just to immediately use more high draft resources on replacing said RB is definitely something loser teams (Jets/Giants) would do. Hint, hint

Neither Cooper nor Douglas's situations were really anything like Cook's. They were already both on their 2nd contracts and had gotten their paydays a couple times over. Cook's camp would almost certainly use the trade to leverage a new deal immediately. If there is a chance he holds out on the Bills, it's almost guaranteed he'd do that to whatever new team is trading for him.

Exactly. And in a case like Cook's, an extension would be part of the deal, which would have to be worked out well before the trade. Doesnt happen often. Definitely isnt happening with Cook.

The title was only half right. It is now still only half right. Virgil's just saving time combining stuff

It's not really a great draft class in general imo, and even worse picking so late. There isnt even anyone I'd be that excited about at 30, let alone beyond. Hoping Beane can find some diamonds in the rough. But I'm already planning on "getting through" the draft and on to OTAs.

Yeah, you would think if McD is such a Trust the Process/culture guy that, in year 8, he could absorb some players with character issues and get the most out of them on the field. Not sure that's actually played out tho.

Seems like a knucklehead whose dumbassery is already affecting his on-field performance. Pass.

It's the first move by any Division rival in at least the last 5 years that made me go "ah crap, that might be a problem someday".

The tag will be over $14M/yr. If you're going to do that for one or two years, you might as well sign him to a real, 3yr deal at that amount and keep everyone happy.

Patriots. With Vrabel they have a chance to actually split with us.

Agreed. Philly's D Backfield was just as good, if not better, than their front 7. Quinyon Mitchell, CJGJ, Slay, DeJean, and Blankenship. For what it's worth, the Eagles went CB-CB in the first 2 rounds last year and walked away with 2 players who were both up for DROY.

The obvious choice is Watts. Just to see the board melt down as the Bills go DB in both of the first 2 rounds.

If we're talking UGA DL to play inside I'd look into Nazir Stackhouse too. Totally different as Stackhouse is more a true big-body 1-tech to put next to Ed and eat up lineman. He's been far more consistent than TID over their time at UGA. TID has more upside, higher ceiling, more potential. But "potential" is tough when making draft picks. And he has some injury issues.

Some of you guys just love drama.

That does not indicate that he "wants to be traded". It only indicates he wants to get paid.

He has said NOTHING to indicate this. Quite the opposite actually, see below. He's just working on a new deal.

The rest of it just says the same thing in more words anyways

To me it feels like we're just spinning wheels instead of improving. We already did this with drafting Kincaid while we have Knox under a high-paying contract. And while I like Dalton, I can't say the move has paid off or made a marked improvement to the team. Drafting an Ed clone who might be marginally better doesnt do much to move the needle for the team. Put someone better NEXT to Ed since we all know that improving one spot on either of the Lines directly helps the guys next to him. JMO

Yep! I hate it!

If Brandon Beane pulled a $12M done-deal off the table from our 2nd best offensive weapon over a couple of minor social media posts, then he deserves to be fired. But he didnt and wouldnt.

Dude are you drunk? YOUR OWN quoted post in the screen shot is you jumping into the INJURY discussion, saying that the play has INJURY POTENTIAL because... Jason Kelce said it was grueling. That isnt good logic. Youre smart enough to know that. But way too stubborn to admit it at this point. Have a good night.
