Please make this happen Beane.

 

 

I want him to come here too. But a lot of things would have to happen first.

 

One thing I thought was, I hope this has nothing to do with Stefon Diggs not showing up to OTA's. Hopefully it's just that he doesn't feel the need to be there or it's another issue. 

 

If he doesn't like the idea of having another vet proven alpha like Hopkins with him and it could become an issue with Diggs, I don't want to do it. If it comes down to Diggs or Hopkins, I'm taking Diggs 6 days a week and twice on Sundays. 

 

I'm sure the inevitable replies will be "if Diggs has a problem with it, trade him". And I don't want that to even become a discussion. Diggs and Josh are a proven commodity with years of rapport.

Very much doubt that would be a common response and most folks would rightly knock it down.

lol…. Diggs usually doesn’t attend OTA’s or misses half of them. That’s a non story.

 

Diggs would surely love not being double teamed.

 

Diggs literally cannot be traded. His dead cap hit is something like 45 million.

I would love for things to come together for it to happen, but regarding Von Miller's comments, a few months ago quite a bit here felt pretty sure OBJ was going to sign  when Miller said similar type stuff. There shouldn't be much of a confidence boost from Von Miller's comments this time around....

the difference is, OBJ never told Von he wanted to be a Buffalo Bill. Nor did he use facial expressions in an interview to show blatant interest in the Bills

He also never specifically said dhop either. Just an offensive weapon.

From the get go I have been on board with getting Hopkins in to Buffalo.
But Beanes will have to pull some wizardry, and not something even slightly resembling the Von Miller landing.
No way i want Bills to hamstring the future for this seasons hopes.

 

BTW very pleased to read Miller should be ready early season. That could be huge as far as needs from FA and Draft at edge !

I recall one of Von's statements saying something along the lines of "He talks to OBJ often and that he knows where OBJ wanted to be and that was Buffalo" Also a different time Von said "he was sure OBJ would be a Bill". That's just off the top of my head I recall....I Would assume he very well may have said that to Von at some point considering how Von was so confident with some of his statements....

I could have sworn Dhop was mentioned.....

Well I mean I don't know if I'd put it like that, it's good that he tries to recruit certain players...

 

I'm just saying that some put way too much stock into Von's comments about OBJ feeling he would definitely be a Bill in just a matter of time,

I didn't hear the full interview, just the Twitter clip.  They speculate dhop but never say his name

Von be a blow hard 

 

C'mon we should know by now Von going to say Von things, attention is for all name players these days.

 

McAfee though wants to look connected.  He wants to hit.  He only said offensive weapon.  

 

So what about Tampa, is M Evans a possibility again?   They signed Godwin to $20M/yr and Gage to $10M/yr.  Adding in Evans that's a lot of WR money.

 

M Evans comes in at around $14,5M.  A little restructure here, add another year there, spice it up with a guarantee and a signing bonus and Beane could probably do it without even having to move Oliver.  What's Tampa want for him?

 

Gotta let AZ know there's a little competition.  Could be sending a message, the Bills have options.

Ah ok maybe it wasn't mentioned in the clip you saw and it was during the full interview at some point because I thought for sure I heard it. It's possible I might be mixed up because I'm getting older now where many changes to my body and mind are easily noticed. Like when your balls start to hang twice the length of your penis
