we have no idea what he was yelling about. He may have been complaining to Josh “this is the route concept that’s working, stop running the garbage coming down from the booth” motivation and leadership take many forms, I agree he needs to be in the locker room postgame. Maybe he is fed up with the coaches, most on this board are. Does that make us immature and self-centered.

Im very much in agreement with all points on this. Not sure how a tag and trade works. All special teamers on non-minimum contracts need to be released as well (other than long snapper)

I also add trade Oliver so you are off the hook for his salary this upcoming season. And could get a high 3rd round pick for him. There likely won’t be cash to resign him anyway if he plays well, so get the assets for him and invest in OL.

First round pick should be used to draft the most pro ready offensive lineman available regardless of what position, C, G, or T not an athletic freak who will need to be coached up. This need to be a plug and play starter.

also, just call it a gut feeling based on the way Burrow has acted since the day he won the heisman. He will give the bengals a nice hometown discount, on his extension.

he’s gone in my book. The new NFL has so few kick returns that his position’s value lessens. Just need someone who can reliably fair catch the ball. Cook should get his catches.

Phillips who was playing phenomenal for the first 2 games also popped the hammy in that game.

this times 100x

All the money from these players should go to 2 OL replacements.

Special team aces shouldn’t make up more than minimum level contracts in my opinion. Other than long snapper.

For starters here is my first steps from a personnel standpoint. 1. Let Poyer walk 2. Let Edmunds walk 3. Trade Oliver to avoid his salary for next year and get a 2nd or 3rd for him. 4. Use the above money saved above to go sign the best two OL available regardless of position. 5. Determine if Mitch Morse is going to retire and if so and rework his contract to spread out any hits. 6. Determine if Dawkins and Brown are capable of playing Guard. 7. Do not re-sign or sign any “special teams “ace” (other than Ferguson). No Jones, Neal, Kumerow, Mattekevich. 8. Explore resigning Daquan Jones. 9. Tell Josh Allen and $8M/year salary reduction would do wonders for getting an improved OL or an improved 2nd WR.

a top 10 pick isn’t supposed to be a role player!

The exception has 7 rings? Maybe it’s worth considering? Is 35M a year and endorsements not enough to squeak by on?

Ed Oliver undersized DT who had one pressure in a playoff game against backup o-line. bills picked up his option, I would have no plans on resigning him after this upcoming season so I would cut my losses and get whatever I could. Use the money that he was owed toward the OL.

I will say it again. Any time Josh Allen wants to take a $10M a year pay cut he can choose the WR or O-Lineman he wants that money to be spent on. Hate on Tom Brady for a lot of things, but he regularly took a yearly cap hit of 15-17M something like 65% of the highest paid QB.

I give McDermott the option to have 2 new coordinators to start the season or then we part ways.

yeahni know but still, may be more than an owner wants to pay.

Poyer, Edmunds, Taiwan Jones, Siran Neal, Tyler Mattekavich all come to mind as folks I’d let walk. id find a way to trade Oliver mainly to get out of the salary for the year.

I read Payton wants 20M a year. Not sure what McD is currently getting.

no timeouts to challenge. It was clear expected eye in the sky NY to jump in on that one.

No timeout to challenge that spot. Knee was down on 3rd and 2

Bills may not get the ball back.

could Dawkins play G? Could he move to right tackle? In my dream off-season with Poyer and Edmunds money the 2 best Olinemen available are signed regardless of position.

hahaha. You tell Josh to come out of the game.

I don’t know about that. The D hasn’t made more than 1 tackle with getting pushed back. The line of scrimmage issue would have been there too.
