Well he already knows the offense and still wanted to play, and bills didn’t want him back. In shortened offseason probably the only place that fit. Could see him getting bumped from the 53 though.
True. And throw in there that for some reason Gase doesn't like Bell.
I am NOT saying Gore replaces Bell. I'm saying Gase will like having him around unless and until Frank's skill set forces him to do something else.

I think Cam Newton ends up in NE some time before September.
I see your logic, but here's my problem: for years (with Brady) the NE offense was based on quick reads and getting the ball out on seams and curls and other short-to-intermediate stuff, with just the occasional long pass. It also exploited mismatches at TE with Gronk, which didn't happen in '19 so the NE offense scratched around for points more than it was used to while its D (which has lost some people from '19) controlled the game. I don't know if Cam can play that kind of O, especially without a normal offseason. And it may be even worse if they redesign the O to fit him without a normal offseason.
Now I'll just stand back while other people tell me how wrong I am.

Taco signed with the Chiefs this morning. Remember when it seemed like the Patriots could sign anybody and the salary cap never mattered? Doesn't it seem like the Magic Payroll charm has moved on to KC?

You got me - my mistake and thanks for pointing out. Nevertheless, my point stands about the low class remarks by this individual about entire communities. Name calling - no good.
Agreed. I'm surprised the Globe indulges the stuff but I guess I shouldn't be.

Cue the next Patriots-are-in-cap-hell-but-they'll-cheat-their-way-out-of-it thread.

What a shame. His father was a true professional and had class! Now look what the son did to the family name after all the hard work his father did.
Are you sure you're not thinking of Will (and Sean) McDonough? Will McDonough was a classy reporter for both The Boston Globe and NBC and I don't recall Sean ever badmouthing the Bills.
Shaughnessy is primarily a baseball writer who is pandering to his local base here when he has nothing else to write about. I wonder how many Bills (or Jets or Dolphins) games he's even watched.

Can someone here confirm for me: for dead money purposes, a retirement is the same as a cut, right? So a team can't fix a cap issue like that by just letting a player walk into the sunset?

Living here in the Garden State I got to see a lot of Chad Pennington, who was actually a first round draft choice (Ok, by the Jets, but still ...). He had very limited athletic ability, an unimpressive arm, and maybe college stats inflated by playing with Randy Moss -- a big advantage in comparing him to Fromm. But Pennington really knew how to play the game of football and the position of quarterback and he made his team win because he was so good from the neck up. I keep thinking -- hoping? -- that's Fromm's story.

Fromm is currently the 4th QB on the depth chart. He's got to work his way up the ladder. He's got the advantage though because he hasn't proven himself to be, at best, a backup QB like Barkley and Webb have, plus he's cheap.
And here I thought drafting Fromm meant the Davis Webb era is over.
The only question in my mind here -- seriously -- is whether they'll put Fromm on the roster or chance waiving him to the PS. Webb is a non-factor and Barkley is on the last year of his contract, so Fromm was drafted to fill the luxury position of backup QB for the longer term, not 2020. They like saving the roster space by carrying only 2 QB's and I think they'll carry two kickers with Bass handling KO's. They also like DL's and WR's in numbers. So there will be some tough decisions coming this year.
And I wouldn't be surprised if Fromm spent '20 on IR either. Just sayin'.

The 58 yarder from Sr Bowl practices that hit halway up the uprights had a really low trajectory, and that was vs a defense. I think he can adjust for the wind.
I really hope you're right but I have no doubt he makes the team because nearly 80% of his KO's were touchbacks.
-
Maybe this has already been mentioned but it seemed to escape everyone yesterday in the argument over leg strength: in 2019 he had 55 touchbacks on 72 kickoffs.
72 kickoffs in 13 games also means Georgia Southern was scoring, meaning it probably didn't need to try 50+ yard FG's very often.
-
If he's the second coming of Chad Pennington I'll live with it. Before Pennington's noodle arm gave out he was a really good football player.

It's also noticeable how much of a rainbow effect his kicks have, I'd say they'll be very difficult to block.
Sky isn't falling is my point, looks like we got a good one.
I hope you're right (on Draft Day I want to drink the Kool-Aid) but I worry about rainbow kickers at New Era. Bills kickers have to blast line drives to cut through the wind. Arcing kicks allow for more play from the wind.
-
Louis Riddick (talking about someone else) just said 6-1 ½ is "tremendous size." Huh?
-
Maybe this explains why they took Fromm --- to make a Georgia Southern kicker comfortable with a Georgia holder.

Between Davis and Moss it looks like Beane is working on his goal line offense.

So . . . people (starting with Reggie Bush) think the Packers plan to take the next two or three years off while they groom Love? They're that intimidated by the juggernauts in Chicago, Minnesota and Detroit?
With Rodgers the Packers are maybe the division favorite. Without him they're Cincinnati.

Doesn't vet minimum increase with years in the league, so maybe his minimum is still 7 figures?

I like the move to simpler, clean styles this year. Gotta give credit to the bucs, pats*, and chargers.
Chargers are the best of the bunch.
Atl's are straight trash though.
Agreed and I'm old enough to remember when Charger powder blue on gold pants was their everyday look, not special, which makes the look iconic.
But I don't like helmet numbers generally, and those navy ... things on the far right are ... Is Halloween a game night this year? Is that what the last one is for?

This is all working out beautifully. The 3 stages of a 15 year drought.
1. HOF QB leaves
2. Hideous uniforms are unveiled
3. HC leaves after two 2-15 seasons
The Giants got a head start on this. Still waiting on any uniform changes.

Didn’t they just sign him last year to a huge deal?
You're right, my bad. It's one of the reasons they're in cap hell. (See also Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey.)

You really have to wonder WHY [Cooks] was traded
I thought it was a salary dump since the Rams are in cap hell with more to come in the next few years. For example, if they like Goff (a legit question) they'll have to pay him soon.

Dude, every single fan thinks every single national commentator is against their team.
Yeah but this is Buffalo so we don't think it, we know it.

What ever happened to Dan Dierdorf?
He does color now on Michigan radio. He's also 70 years old.
What's the problem with Moss?

As a Bills fan I'm always ready to panic. Why hasn't he signed yet when everybody else has?? TALK ME OFF THE LEDGE.
