Turbo44 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 From our buddy, Timmy Buffalo Bills I’m told the Bills don’t have an iron in this fire. Most of the Beckham-to-Buffalo smoke has been manufactured to this point, with his reconstructed knee not rehabbed enough to consider. It’s uncertain if Beckham will be ready to play full-go snaps by December. The Bills also have restricted salary cap space. Von Miller has banged the drum, playfully declaring his former teammate’s arrival in Buffalo “a done deal.” Beckham has asked Miller on social media about getting the adjoining locker stall at One Bills Drive. Buffalo is down a couple receivers, with Jamison Crowder sidelined by a broken ankle and Jake Kumerow out with a high ankle sprain. Isaiah McKenzie missed Sunday’s game while recovering from a concussion. That said, the Bills have proven to be deep. Rookie Khalil Shakir scored his first NFL touchdown Sunday. Isaiah Hodginssigned from the practice squad and got involved early, snagging his first NFL pass in the second quarter, a 26-yard gain. Beckham will be explored, but it appears a lot will need to fall in place (and injury issues to intensify) for the Bills to commit. — Tim Graham 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A week ago were pining for Jake kunerow, and today we don't need OBJ? Imagine an injury or two to the WRs again, now imagine in playoffs (seem to remember an AFCCG with 3 top WRs basically shot). Would anyone have wanted an OBJ for that game?????? Well is he going to sit on the bench? We have guys that need to be on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruffalo Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 4 hours ago, TheBrownBear said: Of course, OBJ is better, but, why you gotta throw shade on our boy Hodgins? He showed well this week when he finally got an opportunity. It's not a dig at Hodgins so much as it is reiterating how much of a talent OBJ is as a WR. The people comparing Hodgins or Shakir with OBJ like they're even in the same conversation is kind of laughable. I think Hodgins is a rosterable NFL WR, but almost certainly a depth piece.

He needs to be at peak performance to play corner. OBJ would not be the primary threat and could play a lot less plays and still be effective. Same way LA used him. Cupp/Woods were primary and OBJ was drawing single coverages when in the game. I’m in the camp that says he’s not coming. But it’s fun to think about it. With the way Elam and Benford developed,White won't have to "Play every snap ". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Post trade deadline OBJ could offer the same juice he offered LA last year. He has made visits. He is not only chasing LA the City. If so he would be content going back. He is chasing a vibe. Buffalo is the vibe. Von knows this. When healthy Beane will make an incentive rich deal. Next year get paid. OBJ, Davis, Diggs is the best wr group in the league all can line up anywhere. This is a put the chips on the table and win it all move. Same thing as Von on Defense but OBJ needs to be healthy first. Its a serious enough knee injury the obvious and ideal team wouldn't sign him until he could pass a physical.

My guess is he'll go to the best team willing to offer him a longer term deal, which would not be Buffalo. If no one is capable or willing, he'll go to the team with the best chance to win a SB this season on a one-year rental/prove-it deal.

Codyny13 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 When it comes to this year, he won’t care about the market.

I would guess he wants a 1 year deal. He will likely be looking for the best combination of opportunity to win plus opportunity to showcase his current skills in a way that will set him up for one more big contract. If his knee is healed but not 100% as many would guess based on his timeline, being the number 1 option, even with a great QB may not be in his best interest. Getting softer coverage and a chance to showcase himself weekly could be the difference more than money THIS year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you know anything about this team, as currently constructed, NOTHING is done without input from Josh Allen. Beane even spoke to it on the Pat McAfee show. If OBJ signs here, it almost 100% guarantees that JA signed off on it. We can debate what kind of contract he wants and/if the Bills can/should pay whatever it is he ends up signing for, but if he signs here… it means he signed for a number Beane can pay him and Beane was given the go ahead from Allen. I pretty much implicitly trust Josh Allen’s feeling for the locker room. Same thought process goes for a potential CMC trade if that’s a route they explore.
