Big Turk

Well deserved for Dabs. Kind of shocking how McD hasn't won one yet with as much as he has turned this team around.

There is no way they spend that type of early draft capital on the OLine nor should they.

Garrett Wilson agrees with you...he even said it in interviews before and again when asked he said "He stands on that" and said they called him "The Natural".

Only because you had highly unrealistic expectations.

Almost all contracts have the contract the agents can show off to prospective clients, and then the "actual contract" which is likely to be earned by the player in this deal.

The devil is all in the details. Contract can be whatever amount they want, but all that matters is how the contract is structured, the amount guaranteed and how easily the team can get out of the contract before the big money hits, or how easily they could restructure it. The total dollar amounts are for the agents to show off to clients, but usually there is the "real contract" within the actual contract.

This game was crazy...Bills had 2 long plays early on. Fred Jackson scored on an 80 yard run before this play...close game, Fitz sealed the L with a 4th quarter INT with 4.5 minutes left in the 4th with the Bills in easy FG range(under 40 yards) and the Giants went down to kick a FG to win the game...as always, Fitz in the 2 minute drill late in the game, Bills went nowhere gaining 5 yards and 4th down pass was batted down...but at least it wasn't the normal Fitz 2 minute special of throwing an INT on the first play to seal the L.

Are you insane? You don't pay RBs 14.1 million in the NFL anymore.

Starting to come around to this idea more and more if it's at 27 and they don't move up. I mean the comparison for him is Saquon Barkley...he would help the run game as much as OLinemen would. We talk about the need to draft elite players? Well, this would be an elite player and probably far better than anyone else available at our pick. I doubt he is there tho. Always some team that will value him highly as the best RB in the class.

AV is a sum of their career total, I think you are simply not understanding it. Watkins has a 51 AV and 9 seasons, meaning he averages 5.7 AV per year. Jefferson has a 41 AV and 3 seasons meaning he has an average of 13.7. If Jefferson simply puts up similar numbers, he would have almost 123 AV in the same time period as Watkins. Trying to use Career AV doesn't work unless you are comparing the same number of years. You would need to take AV/year if you are trying to use it compare players in the way you are trying to use it for, otherwise it makes no sense.

Pretty scathing story on Wilson and one that raises a lot of questions of legal improprieties and potentially illegal payment for people working there to do work for the Wilson's Family Office instead. Spend 600K in charitable contributions in 2020-2021 but 1.1 million on salaries to run their Non-Profit, which were far higher than other non-profit salaries in the area. Wilson could be in real trouble if the IRS, Department of Labor or other investigative body decides to take a closer look at this... https://www.yahoo.com/sports/russell-wilsons-why-not-foundation-174735657.html

It really is amazing how people think every other team drafts superstar players in the first round every year.

Hate to break the news to you, but McD is not only NOT on the hot seat, it's probably about as ice cold as it could get. You are dreaming if you think he is going anywhere without multiple losing seasons with a good team.

I think what it shows is that teams tend to trend towards the mean over a long enough time period. Buffalo over the 6 year period still has much higher DraftAV than either CIN or KC as a whole.

Teams that want to actually use their cap wisely don't pay 2 WR's. It's not happening. They draft a guy to be that player, then they move on from him if he isn't going to be a #1 when it comes time for a second contract.

So basically they had 3 great drafts followed by 3 "Meh" drafts, while CIN and KC had a top draft in successive seasons in 2020 and 2021, which tells a pretty good story. Also both had rookie draft classes that performed better than ours this year.

Josh Downs? Zay Flowers?

Yeah, they have them pretty often there...nobody injured that I know of, it was more central southern Turkey, most of my family still there lives near Istanbul. Nope...Big Turk is because I am Turkish(my Dad is from Istanbul) and I have been a gym rat for a while so I have some pretty decent size...it was actually a nickname given to me by a friend that stuck so now a lot of my friends call me that...

Turkey just had a 7.8 magnitude one this morning and it collapsed buildings and killed at least 1300 people from the reports... They have a lot of major ones there...remember my Mom telling me when she was there they had one and she thought she was going to die because the entire room shifted to one side of the house. My Dad grew up in Istanbul and told me some crazy stories too...

Buffalo lies very close to the Clarendon-Linden Fault Line and we actually have quite a few earthquakes here, just normally under a 3.0 magnitude so they aren't really felt. The last one I remember before this was maybe 35 years ago when I was growing up and it lasted for about a minute or so and shook the chandelier in the dining room.

Jones is a QB that can get you to the playoffs some years but will never get you much further than that. Basically you are hamstringing yourself at the QB position and preventing yourself from potentially getting better at it. Jones has a ceiling similar to Andy Dalton in Cincinnati, aka not high enough if you are hoping to compete for championships.

Burrow actually kinda sucks in the playoffs. His stats impress no one.

Uh no. Who gives a crap what fans think?

Handing the ball off to a RB versus Allen keeping it is always a win for the defense. Trust me, they would love nothing more than for us to keep handing it off.
