Who gets cut?

How exactly is such an incredibly detailed injury history, for any player, useless information? And what exactly would they have "updated" since January? Is there another injury we don't know about?

I don't know if this has been posted before, but an interesting website: http://sportsinjurypredictor.com/player/sammy-watkins/6937

I didn't know Whaley took over their Director of Recruiting.

Why do you think we would want a QB that is a threat to run? I'm pretty sure this new regime is done with "athletic" QBs. I love TT, but as soon as he shows he can't hit open receivers from the pocket, we'll be moving on from running QBs. Look no further than us signing Yates, drafting Peterman, and trading Cardale. Correct. We're finally done experimenting with running QBs.

OMG. Dysfunctional.

I can't decide what more insane: that Bell was offered that much money or that Bell turned down that much money.

Correct. Brees showed promise before he signed with NO, but the Chargers didn't really think he'd be that good (neither did many teams I guess). He was coming off a decent season and finally seemed to turn the corner after years of mediocrity. But, he had an injury history and SD was hell-bent on anointing Rivers their franchise QB. They should've dumped Rivers for a kings ransom, but hindsight is 20/20. I think many teams will remember the Brees story. Barring injury, I won't be surprised if he becomes the highest paid QB next year.

I didn't know we would be held to the same deadline as Washington if we traded for him. I'd only want to do it if we knew he would be signing a long-term contract with us. Otherwise, it wouldn't be worth it considering we would only have a couple months of an exclusive signing period. Maybe I'd do that for a 4th rounder.

Who here would flip our (not KC's) 1st rounder next year for Cousins? I think Cousins is in the driver seat in regards to facilitating a trade if he really has no intention of re-signing with Washington. We're likely going to package our picks to move up and draft a big unknown. Cousins, while not elite, is a known commodity. Why give up anything for a guy will be a FA? To avoid the inevitable bidding war.

You're odd that you can't detect when someone is being facetious. Who's autistic now?

Yep. I also see it as bad PR for the team and the NFL if he dies on the field and the team was aware that he had a condition, waiver or not.

There's something fishy with this case. He received an initial medical opinion that he should retire, so he did. What has changed? Did his missing vertebral body grow back? If he received a 2nd opinion, why didn't he get one before filing the retirement papers? It seems like he may have finally received an opinion (3rd? 4th?) he wanted to hear. His words: "Now that I've gotten a taste of the game being taken away from me, I'm even more hungry to play," Orr said Wednesday on NFL Network's Good Morning Football. There's no way this guy passes a team physical. I wouldn't touch him with a 10 foot pole (but if I did, I'd do it gently).

I don't see this as bad news. This is great news. Bad news would've been him experiencing a sudden cardiac death on the field.

This says Russ Brandon all over it. Yuck.

I think they are really odd too. I can understand commercials for ED treatments or perhaps depression, because most patients know what these condition are but may be reluctant to even bring this up to their physician and end up feeingl helpless. But, then there's some really esoteric conditions like "atrial fibrillation not due to an artificial heart valve". Really, what kind of patient out there would (1) even know they have atrial fib or (2) have a strong opinion about what med they are on? Or conditions that are not very common like rheumatoid arthritis?

This is likely anperirectal abscess from a developing fistula. This isn't good.

Thoughts and prayers.

So basically, the Bills offered him what they believed his market value was based on his age and recent production. I applaud this approach. Not too long ago, Whaley would've opened the vault for him, just like most fans were asking them to do.

So, it seems that if you are actually cut by the Bills, you really aren't going to amount to much because 90% of the names being thrown around on here weren't cut, but left in free agency. We should keep this in mind come late summer.

No one said they are the same player. But production is production, which was Wood-ish. I'd be extremely wary of paying a 30 year-old who had a "down year" when his team made the playoffs. That tells me a lot of things we're going right on that team, but not him. Wonder why.

Would you give Woods that type of money? Because that's the production (minus blocking) you'll be getting, at best.

I'd sign him for a little over the vet minimum plus a bunch of incentives, 1-2 years. It was insane he was making that much for average production. I'm sure he was on the Bills minds (on what not to do) when they decided not to option Sammy.

This guy certainly doesn't want to be a Bill or the Bills don't want him to be one. I would move on.
