appoo Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 5 minutes ago, Ethan in Cleveland said: What are you talking about? The Bills will have a cap charge of $30M this year and no player on the roster to show for it. How much more dead do you want that to be??? Yesterday the Bills had 7.5M in cap space. Today they have about 4M. What is the opportunity cost of that 3-4M? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finn Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 1 minute ago, Brianmoorman4jesus said: Go up and get Harrison. Just deal with what it costs. We are trying to win a Super Bowl. Our picks better not be high anyway. What would it take? Maybe our first and second this year, as well as our first and both seconds next year. That's one impact player instead of, potentially, five. No, better to trade up to the middle of the first round to take one of the top four WRs. Even that will take three high picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appoo Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Just now, Mr. WEO said: Diggs running into coverage isn't always double teaming.... Nah, having a safety just shaded over or a backer shaded over makes a pretty significant difference. Teams don't double Kelce and others, they layer coverage. Don't think Diggs is wrong here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. WEO Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 17 minutes ago, Beck Water said: I don't think the Texans took on $19M of which $18.5 is fully guaranteed because "every other GM" thought he was a cancer On the other hand, a guy who is turning 31 and is due $19M ($18.5M guaranteed) this season and $18M and $19M the next two seasons, has limited trade value. I was referring to his trade value, which was minuscule, it turns out. Most who might be looking for a top WR FA figured he was expensive/cancer/washed up/not worth a high pick this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 6 hours ago, Cash said: Oof. In a vaccuum, I'm okay with trading Diggs, but I was hoping for a better haul than this. A second rounder a full year away, plus we're throwing in late picks? Yikes. Maybe Diggs really is cooked at this point if the Bills are willing to sell for that price. Because now you're not just replacing Davis in the draft, you're replacing Diggs as well. We'd better not sell off next year's #1 to move up for a WR. This could be a down year (so could any year, if Allen gets hurt) and our 2025 #1 could be in the teens instead of the twenties. Davis was already replaced. His name is Kahlil Shakir. He clearly became WR2 by late season. Thanks for SOME magic moments, Stefon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Double teams, Quitting, injury, running the ball more, oc change etc). Look at his catch percentage and depth of target. Marino has some great numbers on this. He was receiver three from week 7 to 28 and did ***** all in the postseason including a critical drop. Yeah, sometimes guys hit the wall quick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pox on your family for a thousand generations! With or without Eichel, the Sabres stunk/stink on ice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKBillFan Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 12 minutes ago, boater said: Diggs publicly throwing Allen under the bus surely made Beane's job harder than it should have been. Just caught yesterday’s tweet. It is absolutely right that Diggs has never criticised the Bills or the Mafia. But he really seemed to have it in for Josh, and it gets to a point where you can’t have WR1 working against the QB in public to that extent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
