Low Positive

First of all, Alexander is not a "quality starter" at this point if the Ravens cast him aside for nothing. And the Eagles not only overpaid for Phillips, but they gave the Fins an option to send the player out of the conference to a team that they only see once every 4 years. Their move to get Carter was really good because it allows them to move DeJean out of the slot, so they strengthened two spots with one move. That was the key move for them. The rest is just activity to say they are doing something. What the Bills want, by every account, are players that other teams also want. You can't force another team to trade with you. Also, we have the misfortune of having two of the worst teams in the league in the division. The Dolphins and Jets will NEVER trade with us, even if we overpay. This board will melt down sometime over the next 24 hours when the Fins trade Waddle to Pittsburgh or Denver, but Miami could never trade him to us, even for two firsts.

Deadline is tomorrow @ 4:00pm. Bad teams with valuable tradeable assets will run it right up to the deadline unless someone overpays.

Hendrickson is out right now with a hip injury. And he actually is hurt because the Bengals are trying to win to stay in the AFC North race. He would also cost not only a first, but also a massive extension (top non-QB type contract) in order to make it work. I think if anyone makes that move, it will be the Pats (unfortunatly) because they have the assets and cap space.

It also takes an owner willing to pay MASSIVE upfront signing bonuses.

Chase Brown got a fingertip on his jersey as he went to the ground with the INT.

Just an FYI: While we have parity in the league, the Jets are a parody of an NFL team.

Roseman is always very active: He also has an owner who is willing to manipulate the cap to its fullest extent, upfront cash outlays be damned. If you have that, the cap is meaningless in the short term. But there will be hell to pay in 2030.

Won’t happen. They have both the Steelers and Broncos as other options.

Waddle will be a Steeler before Tuesday is over. They didn’t, in fact, end up signing MVS. They’re in a one-year window, desperate for a WR, and provide another option for Miami to not have to trade Waddle to Buffalo or New England. That’s where he goes if he gets traded.

Look on the bright side. Pitchers and catchers report in 3.5 months.

I assume this is Minkah. Here is his contract. If the Bills wanted to, they could make it work: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/25106/minkah-fitzpatrick

If you wanna refresh your memory, here goes:

Zac Taylor was Goff's QB coach in LA and was in no way qualified to be a HC in the NFL. But he got hired during the "hire anyone who ever got McVey or Shanahan a cup of coffee" phase. And he did lead the Bengals to the Super Bowl and make Mike Brown a lot of extra money, so his job is secure. But Bengals' fans complain about his play design and play-calling a lot. Here's what gets talked about: Their offense can often be boiled down to "throw it up for Ja'Marr." Not a bad plan, if you ask me, but sometimes a team schemes him away, and they don't have answers for it. Their offense lacks pre-snap motion. Strange play calls that don't take the flow of the game into account. Like on Sunday against the Jets, he called a Perine run on 2-10 on the CIN 44, down one point with 42 seconds left in the game. They did have timeouts, but a team with Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins ran the ball, needing 18 yards to get into range for a long game-winning FG. They wasted a down and a TO. Yeah, they score a lot of points and it's obvious that it's the defense that is losing them games. Giving up 39 to the Jets? That's laughable. But when it comes to end of game situations, Zac Taylor's play-calling gets goofy.

There is no reason for any selling team not to run it all the way up to the deadline. I know we all want action NOW, but the team with the player holds all the cards and will attempt to get a bidding war going to maximize value. See it from his old-a$$ POV. If he stays in Arizona, he still gets paid and he only has to play outside in the cold once (12/28 in Cincinnati).

He doesn't just coach it. He lives it.

You want a bonehead WR? Go get Jermaine Burton from Cincinnati. They would probably pay a team to take him off their hands.

That's true, but I wonder how Joe Borough would look with McDaniels?

JFC people! Mike McDaniel (no s) is the HC in Miami. Josh McDaniels (with the s) is the OC in New England. This is getting into Joe Burroughs territory!

We don’t even know if he can be an OC. He didn’t call plays in SF, and Dolfans who watch the team game in and game out think his playcalling leaves a lot to be desired from a situational and flow standpoint. He sure can scheme up a gimmick handoff.

Nice play by Lamar.

That could be said about every bad NFL team in almost every game they play.

What? You don't like full-team line dances in the endzone?

Metchie goes from over a 1,000 yards on a National Championship team and a second round pick to being traded twice in one season. This time, he’s an add on to a salary dump. This league comes at you fast.

Brainrot edits. The more random, the better. The audio also has to be so loud it clips. Gen Z finds it funny. My kids are 20 and 22 and they show me these all the time. FWIW, they think the Bills social media team is genius.
