I mostly agree. No way Beane drafts 8 players this year. I expect at least a couple of the later picks to be used to move up in the 2nd or 3rd rounds, or to turn the 4th into a 3rd. I'm counting on at least one late round pick being used on a punter, but probably not Araiza...I don't think we'll be punting often enough to justify more than a 6th rounder on this position and it will have to be someone who can hold for FGs, which Araiza has never done.

You don’t say…

As I recall, Crowder had a big game against us in the season opener a year or two ago…he might have had a dozen catches…I remember thinking “this guy is a pain in the ass”.

It would cost far more than next year’s 2nd to move from 25 to the top 12. More like 25 and two second round picks. And it will take more than our 3rd and 4th rounders to move back into the first round…sorry to rain on your parade…

Well, the “financial penalty” will be whatever Watson has to pay to settle the civil cases, so that’s probably why the league isn’t too concerned…

Nah, Rivers was lousy in his last year in SD…worse than Ryan in 2021, who was playing for a bad team with only one real weapon (who was a rookie).

Wow…shows how desperate teams are for QB

$14M isn’t outrageously low, and Diggs willl be 30 when his current deal expires…paying a guy already under contract more $ is the kind of thing you might have to pass on when your QB is no longer on his rookie deal…

I liken it to their Rivers signing two years ago…Ryan’s got one more year left…he’s running on fumes.

Sorry, Stef…you’re under contract for two more years…

Probably, but that means they don’t make that trade with the Jets and maybe the Jets take him at 6…

If Luck announces his retirement a little sooner, the colts would have been prime candidates to draft Josh Allen…or Sam Darnold…

Colts with Mayfield at QB no better than Browns with Mayfield…in other words, Who cares?

Why? We keep using day 2–not day 3–picks on RB. I can’t even remember the last day 3 pick we spent on the position.

I understand that in about a month, NFL teams are allowed to add a certain number of college players to their rosters, through some sort of selection process…some of the players are quite good…

Ok, si the “no sack” streak started the next week…whenever Bates was added.

Who? I doubt that. He wasn’t sacked a single time in those games. Not once.

I was talking about the last six games, including the playoffs

I don’t recall everyone saying that after XXV, but if they did, then they were right, weren’t they?

I’m not sure how you can say that. No one laid so much as a glove on Josh for the last month of the season…oh, and the running was good too.

Yep…it’s not likely the Bills will ever have a clearer path to the Lombardi than they had this year…sure, we’ll always be in the mix as long as Josh is around, but those 13 seconds are looking bigger all the time.

Thanks

Any word on the compensation? Is Baker headed to Houston?

It makes sense, but once Bates was inserted as the starter at LG, the O line played very well last year. I don’t think Josh took a sack in the last 5 games…How much more “protection” does he need?

Let me be the first to ask…Who?
