You’ve made a sound argument, I’m going to hope Oliver plays a big part of a championship run and the front office can choose to part ways after year 3 of the contract if they’re so inclined.

Yeah I believe the Knox contract isn’t good, I’m not sure if every team doesn’t have contracts they regret, I’d expect they do.

I have no reason to doubt you and the 6th highest guaranteed money claim, that is too much guaranteed money for Oliver at this point imho. Looks like it’s a decision they’ve made based on a multiple of factors, many of which fans are not privy. I’m also hoping making room for an acquisition was part of the decision and that Ed pops off and we feel much better about the contract in November than we do now.

Fair

It’s perfectly reasonable to disagree with the signing, I personally would have let him play out the option like Edmunds but the overreaction by some portraying this move as the new Albert Haynesworth debacle isn’t necessary to make their point. Middle of the road money for a good young DT with hopes of upside.

There’s only a small handful of DTs that are noticeable every game and they make or will make the top money, not this middle of the league money Oliver just signed for. DT isn’t a splash play position.

This sums it up perfectly.

Playing rookies in 2022-23 is not rushing, it’s not 1985. we can just agree to disagree.

Elam and Cook needed to be on the field more, that was a failure IMHO. Shakir was a much less important piece of the puzzle. If people are saying McDermott has a long history of mishandling rookies that’s obviously incorrect.

Wow… Shakir trying to Billy Joe Hobert himself

I appreciate you posting any and all NFL information… I’m a junkie

Yeah I’m sure they were prepared if the trade option for a #1 wasn’t available

I think the argument is they needed a #1 right away and Diggs was just that, Jefferson or any of the other WRs were more of hope they’d be a #1 at some point. It was the right move at the time got the Bills.

Just wrong about Josh changing his aggressive physical running style. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t wanna see a single designed QB until the playoffs, but I wanna see him rolling out and taking off using his god given size and mobility.

I hope you’re wrong, watching him be who he is as a competitor is exhilarating. I know for many it’s all about winning a title, but for me it’s about the journey and enjoying this once in a lifetime talent use all his gifts. I focused on the end results in the late 80s and 90s and never really enjoyed and appreciated the team.

Of course it will and for the next 5-6 years people will be scared and insisting he must change until his age does what he will not.

Some fans just love the attention of swimming against the current.

Sadly it happens, here’s to hoping Hopkins is different.

Yeah I always fear for his health when he’s running and trucking people, but ***** I’m jumping outta my seat and going nuts after those highlight plays. It’s a competitive sport but it’s also entertainment and 17 is the most entertaining player in the league.

That’s speculative at best, there seems to be many opinions as to why Allen had a lull in play. I totally understand people’s fears, during every Allen run I’m yelling “get down get down” I share the fear of injury but it’s into year 6 now and this is who this man is. It’s just funny listening to people have these takes about his risky play at the same time as he’s the leading Ironman.

17 is the current NFL QB Ironman while many fans and media types are using his physical play style and rushing abilities as reasons for fear and trepidation. You’re watching an absolute unicorn beast, the likes of which has never been seen with his combination of physical gifts. Sorry to break it to those who insist he change, not gonna happen. I for one hope he never does.

I would love to believe Allen went to Diggs some time after the season and said “ love you bro, but if you ever show me up publicly like that again I’ll put you into the ground like a tent pole”

Witness protection hiding from the east coast mob ?

Picked the Giants for no particular reason, Von needs to be back for the 2nd half when the schedule gets tough.

Wow.. your 1.2 concern level has me thinking I’m way off and maybe I should go back to see if my opinion on his play last season.
