Beane played the Kroft contract incredibly bad.

 

The contract when it was signed was horrible.

 

He had a chance to get out after last season with like a million and half dead cap, and instead restructured to bring the dead cap up to 5 million this year in order to have no dead cap next year.  Everyone knew this guy has no business being on this roster this year and now he has to be.

 

I just never understood why teams pay pro personal so much money in front office when they could just put a poll on a fan website and get better results. ?

 

If they did we would have had John Skelton as 20 year probowl starting QB!

Ouch!     $5 million dead cap?    He's not going anywhere...

I think Sweeney has a chance at being our #2... he’s not a game breaker but he has the potential to be a solid player for us.. wouldn’t surprise me to see him eventually lockdown that spot opposite of Knox...

 

I have some hope of this as well.  He flashed in college with great quick hands.  But couldn’t keep Lee Smith off of the field.

Was hoping the Bills would have upgraded the TE position in the offseason, but no luck. They made more upgrades to WR and RB, so I guess TE would be next?

It's tough to cover every position.

Think Pegula's daughter keeps stepping on the TE's feet while wearing her spiked heels!

We need Hedley Lamarr's "Kinky..." to go with that observation.

Beane has done a solid job to this point, but let's not act like his comments are wrong.... and he had a chance to get out and doubled down on Kraft. 

 

Knox, Smith and Croom is a bad group. 

 

Would love to see him swing a trade for Njoku. They'd be loaded offensively at the skills position. 

Never should have cut Jack Nicholson's nephew!  ?

He’s got a chance.  He’s also got a chance to get cut.  I feel his upside is being less than Scott Chandler. Which is fine for a #2.  But that’s his best case scenario imo

How big is Duke? Can he pass block if needed to?

I was only joking. It'd take him too long to learn a whole new position where it wouldn't make sense even if we wanted to. But he's 6'3 225.

If he had a years worth of reps & was used just in passing situations, then maybe it'd be possible in theory.
But i was just joking

Actually I was going to say I think Sweeney is S. Chandler...that was exactly the caliber of player I had envisioned.

 

Not  a star but reliable

Maybe not a bad idea, a pass route is a pass route, he is big enough to block if needed. Dude has good hands.

He caught the game winning TD in the victory that put the Bills in the playoffs in 2019.

 

He hasn’t been great, but he did make a key contribution 

Big Whoop! Bills were making it regardless.

Time to cut bait with this guy. Front office has shown a ton of faith with this guy and he's repaid them with absolutely nothing. It's that misplaced faith that has made the Bills FO pause on a reliable TE acquisition. We need a reliable vet TE opposite Knox and Kroft has proven not to be it.

I'll say it again -- Kroft's ankles and feet don't look big enough to carry his weight.   

 

If I had to guess, he seems like a natural 190-pound guy who's bulked up and his body can't handle the stress from the extra weight...

Where's he buy his cleats, Lady Footlocker?
