Low Positive

People here in Cincinnati drop Allen from that list and add Burrow. He's not your average Joe, after all:

Well, acording to fans there are currently top-five QBs. Mahomes Allen Jackson Burrow Stafford Goff Daniels Stroud Love Hurts

Didn't know there were fellow tennis fans on here. You should come to Cincinnati some time. Nice tournament, easy access to players, and free parking.

Not so much an idiot as a massive Pats homer. He never played for another team and his show is basically reminiscing about the Brady team. Gronk does actually hate the Bills. Thanks a more interesting topic of discussion.

Yeah, the Bills sucked!

Diggs has created a version of the world in which he is simultaneously the hero and the victim.

Probably meeting with him so much to see if they can deal with the personality.

But speed needs to be able to catch. If all you need is speed, John Ross is a FA and still only 29.

It also shows how bad this year's FA class is. The Pats are spending buckets of money and will be only marginally better.

This message board has taken such a drastic turn towards negative groupthink that most posters are angry at ESPN for saying something positive about their team.

Not well.

They could have found the money for the right guy, but the players that were worth that never hit FA at premium positions like CB or WR.

Kraft told the new regime to spend all the money. So they did.

They're still here and still believe that. They just keep that opinion to themselves now until Ty Dunne writes another article.

They had a lot of money to spend and needed to upgrade the WR room. They wanted HIggins, but he never hit FA. They tried to trade for Metcalf but he made it clear that he wouldn't sign there. So they threw money at Diggs. Not really surprising. They had over 120M to spend. They were going to spend it.

I would imagine that they sold him on a "team on the rise" that is just like when he was traded to the Bills. With that much money, it wouldn't take much to talk him into that.

Anyone who follows car guys on YouTube knows that it's not just the purchase price. It costs a TON of money to own those cars. Any Bugatti, for example, has $20,000 engine-out oil changes every 5,000 miles. A lot of people (not me) can afford the $150,000 it costs to buy a used Ferrari. Few can afford to actually own one.

They had mroe cap space than they knew what to do with and an owner who is demanding an immediate turn around. This was predictable. If Higgins had hit FA, the Pats would have paid him Jefferson money.

This type of short-term thinking is what happens when the owner gives the coach/GM an ultimatum to win now or lose your job.

Russ to the Giants: https://www.si.com/nfl/russell-wilson-join-giants-one-year-deal

I was at this game as a kid. I'll always remember the play where Kelly tripped at the LoS, got up, scrambled backwards, and threw a TD pass off his back foot. I turned to my dad and said "Joe Fergusson doesn't make that play." It's at 2:17:02 of the video.

And if the Bills would have drafted DeJean, half of TBD would have shown up at Beane's house dressed in wrestling singlets armed with pitchforks and flaming torches. The overnight thread after the trade down was full of angry speculation that this was the plan.

But we didn't know any of that. All we saw were some cryptic tweets and the dead cap number. It also set a bad precedent; complain enough on Twitter and Beane (and pretty much every Bills fan) will cave. We're seeing this all play out again with Cook. I'm not as hard on coaching as most here, but the Diggs situation is a poor reflection on McDermott. One of his primary jobs is to manage the egos in the locker room. The fact that it got to that point is his biggest failure as the Bills' coach. I mean, AJ Brown pouted all season on social media and was even reading a book on the sidelines during a game. Is he about to get traded?

I remember when my kids were little, my son (who was about 5 at the time) sat down next to me while I was watching the draft and asked me "dad, when do these guys stop talking and the game starts?" In explaining to him what I was watching, I realized that it was a waste of a nice spring weekend day. I still have watched every minute of every NFL draft since then, but at least I'm self-aware that I have a problem.
