Bills signing Fournette (for real this time)

How does this help our porous defense? Seems like Beane is just doing this just to show he's doing something...

Signing a player doesn't mean anything regarding the trade deadline.  There is still an open roster spot and Harris could be out longer than expected.  It's a depth signing that likely needed to be, done a week and a half later than originally reported and for less money for the remainder of the season.

It's pretty clear that they aren't loving Cook in pass protection and they don't think he's going to hold up in 17+ games in the red zone. They also want someone to take short yardage pressure off Josh. Murray is a good veteran but he looked slowwwww against the Bucs. Fournette probably won't touch the ball more than 4-5 times a game once he is elevated from the PS but if he can be in there on 3rd down and help protect Josh and catch a pass or two, he would be a nice addition. Not really a difference maker but I don't think that was the goal here.

I like this move. Murray has value in pass protection but I don't want to see him touching the ball anymore. It's been painful watching him run it recently.

 

Think he takes Ty Johnson's spot on the practice squad with a few call-ups til Harris gets back.

I like it. Now go get a CB and a LB. 

Benjamin Allbright reporting that Bills, SF and Cowboys are "in on CB Jaylon Johnson" from Da Bears. I looked further - some twitter saying Bills have made offer of: Elam and 2nd round pick for Johnson.

Hmmmmm.. Beaner up to a good deed?

Yeah, that’s it. I’m sure every GM sits in their office going “I better pretend like I’m working.” and then plays speed dial roulette with an agent. 
 

Don’t pollute the board with stupid *****.
