6-8 catches a week? That would break franchise records. This kind of unrealistic approach will lead to constant disappointment.

Really well done, guys. Listened to the whole 2 hours while on a long walk and both of you sounded as knowledgeable and entertaining as you seem on this board. I was surprised UCLA DT Josh Farmer didn't enter your discussions for any of the Round 2 picks, especially for Buffalo. It feels like he's a Bills' favorite.

He'll also be just a year younger than Greg Rousseau is right now. I love the player but that injury combined with the age thing would make me go Amos if both are available.

That's a tough comp because it's all relative. I think back then most of the players were at least 15-20% lighter at most positions than they are now.

Even if the Bills decide he's worth a 5th round flyer, you know teams like KC don't apply the same rigorous rules as Beane would. There's no way he makes it past Round 3 unless there's a LOT more under the surface.

I think many of you are being too harsh on the coaches for that specific game. When you lose (arguably) your best defensive player of an already statistically tepid defense, there's only so much you can do. I thought the D, given their state, did a good enough job in allowing the Bills offense to go win the game. They tried playing more man, caused a couple critical takeaways but simply didn't have the horses. It wasn't ideal but in these playoff matchups of best on best, I'd 100% be happy with giving Josh and the offense the ball to go tie or win the game. Every time.

I don't see how we can take a legit RB prospect this year unless we plan to trade Cook. We are not carrying Cook, Davis, Johnson, draft pick and Gilliam on a 53 man roster.

I'd say it's primarily his injuries. It's like McDermott says, "the best ability is availability". Especially if Babich and McD planned to change the scheme to utilize Bosa and Heucht as movable chess pieces. We could have had Rousseau and Sweat for under 40 mil per - 2 players in their prime for 3 or 4 years feels like a better swing than this. But I will gladly accept being wrong on this take.

I hope I'm proven wrong - and I'm usually pretty optimistic with Beane's signings - but I'm not convinced he's a fit for this team.

Up to 15.6 million? 12 million guaranteed? Yikes!

I don't think so. Unless we trade Cook during the draft, and we are not carrying 4 RBs on the roster. Maybe a UDFA to get some looks in preseason.

That's perfect for us. Field stretcher, with great analytics. This fits the Bills offense.

Twitter is kind of a hellhole anyway. So maybe not?

You can always roll savings into next year. That's not an issue - if anything, it gives us more options if potential trades open up.

I think people need to use percentage of cap as they look at these numbers. It's completely reasonable that deals signed for comparable ascending players just 3 years ago are now around 33% higher (cap went from 208M to 279M).
