I've seen Brady play quite a few years of his career with very little at the WR position. Top tier QBs make WRs look good. That's the type of guy you make the highest paid QB in the league. Giving a QB that type of deal means you are going to be an incomplete team because you suddenly can't pay players at a lot of other positions. The trade off is that the QB more than makes up for that. Can Wilson do that? Can he make up for a non elite D and an O with holes at a lot of positions?

Every time I see Russell Wilson play in the past month I think, "this is the guy that reports say is going to be the highest paid QB in the league?" Don't get me wrong, the guy is a good QB but nowhere near (and I mean NOWHERE) the best in the league. Good luck ever recovering from that contract.

I think its much more likely that Williams is pencilled in as a starter than Kuandjio. Personally, I hope neither sees the field unless Kuandjio is markedly better and i still think hes too tall for a G. Getting low enough in the middle of the line will be a tough task for him. He is a better fit at RT. My worst fear is that Whaley convinces himself Williams will magically be better than hes been his entire career and only adress one G position while hoping either Kuandjio or Henderson distinguish themselves at RT. This team needs 2 new starters at G and a decent vet brought in to compete at RT. Sure the scheme is going to change but Roman himself said he likes OL who are big but who can also pull and get outside. That doesnt describe many of the Bills OL.

Having one of the best players on your team get arrested for multiple homicides is pretty scandalous though not exactly game related.

Why arent they going to sign 3OL? They might not all be top flight guys but I can easily see them bringing in 3 guys to compete (hopefully at least two of them are legit starters.) Nobody in that front office has any delusions about the quality of the OL. And my response to you was because I generally just pick a post thats representative of the other side as opposed to quoting a bunch of posts. That particular one probably wasn't the best example I could pull. Mistakes were made. I like Rex as a coach but if they bring in Revis hes heading right down the same path he did with the Jets. Paying attention to one side of the ball and hoping its good enough to cover the other. And Ihave no doubt if Revis is brought in its because Rex wants him. Granted, these reports could be nothing more than speculation of people connecting the Revis and Rex dots.

Do you think OL and TEs are free? This team needs to overhaul 5-6 positions on offense (QB, 3OL, TE, and maybe RB.) If Revis isnt signed there are plenty of places to spend the money on to upgrade the team. Revis is a guy you sign if youre one or two players away (like NE.) If Revis is signed there is no way the Bills can adress all the holes on O. Are we really hoping some rookies can come in and play well enough in year one? We saw how well that turned ut last year. The Bills are going to have to play this season with EJ at QB or someone who is only marginally better. To have any success they absoltely need better play from the OL. Hell, by saying they need only 3 OL Im giving Woods a pass for his horrible season. If Henderson progresses at RT thats great but they absoltely need to bring someone in to push him, just like they do for EJ.

No doubt they can make a good D better but there's no need to sign the top defensive FA on the market. That will absolutely take money away from other areas of the team. Depth is needed on D, not a top end CB. Sure, Revis would make the D better but at what cost to the O? Despite what posters want to believe they cannot sign guys who can come in and fill every need this team has in addition to Revis. The team needs 3 quality OL (not just two guards.)

Spend it on OL and fix the running game and provide pass protection for whomever is the QB next year. The D is already stacked, there's no need to keep stacking it when the O is horrible.

I read a story a few years ago about a tourist at a national park (I forget which one) having her three year old hold out food for a bear. The bear came over and took the food...and the three year old's hand. This has, comparitvly, a much happier ending. At least it was the person who made the increadibly stupid decision who paid the price.

I'm pretty sure any WR in the NFL could have done 10 to get the "record." Hell, I'm pretty sure any college or high school WR could have if they had a quality QB throwing them the ball.

It's unlikely that they cheated exactly two times and got caught both those times. As "Krafty" as they are I'd say odds are there are quite a few other things they've done that have never been reported.

The OP is really trying to bring up the topic of "upcoming contracts" and then mention two rookies in the list? Huh? And the simple answer is you have to replace the cheap rookie contracts with draft picks who can play at a high level. You pay the few you don't think you can replace and "next man up" the rest.

And this, St. Doug, is why you show up to the interview even if you've heard that ownership likes somebody else for the job.

Is this a joke? Have you never heard other QBs talk about the game slowing down for them after a few seasons of playing? It takes time to figure out NFL defenses and start to just react instead of actively processing and thinking about what's going on. Once that happens the game slows down and it's almost like a "switch" has been flipped. Of course, there is no guarantee this will happen for EJ but to say "if he hasn't done it by now he'll never do it" is simply ridiculous.

Why? I can see him taking over if they fire Bradley mid-season but that rarely translates into the gig the following year.

Having a serviceable OL and a running game that can be relied on will also help him. Let's hope the Bills acquire those things.

I don't think the salary cap was supposed to help cover ineptitude in the front office. It was just supposed to level the playing field so a few teams could massively outspend the others. As such, it is working as intended.

Mario just had the best season of his career. I'd hold off on calling it the downside just yet.

I've really looked forward to it exactly 4 times.

They had no safeties over the top and only rushed 4 on the last play. Don't think I've ever seen that called in 35 years of watching football. Had to be a screw up, it can't have been the actual call.

Wtf was the pack doing on that last play? They had a zero coverage and only a 4 man rush? How does that happen?

Why call time out with 19 seconds left and kick the FG? Run it down then kick it.

Choke city.

Yep, throwing it there wouldn't have been smart.

I'm looking for a 5th Int before its all done.
