@Zod really needs to add an LOL pie option

That's the NBA, not the NFL. These players will go where they can get the most money and also play/have a big role. Just like Thielen and Clowney did when they chose the Panthers. NFL free agency has always been about guaranteed money.

That isn't gonna be possible until 2028 at the earliest. He has a very freshly inked mega-deal. I do think he will eventually choose to go elsewhere. If they hire Brian Daboll, he will crater that entire franchise VERY quickly.

Hopefully the Panthers premium tax is coming down a bit since we made the playoffs we don’t overpay

Hey, I'll take a London Fletcher clone.

I think there needs to be a level of expectation for the players too that you're going to work on this in the offseason. We need to find QBs dedicated to the craft, not just those that are going to rely on their talent or whatever worked before or at the college level.

I don't think he'll go anywhere if they hire Brian Daboll.

We're the wrong environment right now. Ring chasers aren't coming here. Players are coming here for a payday. We need a few back to back winning seasons before we can start attracting the bigger name FAs at regular prices.

Well, I'm not "close" to that situation and really don't follow Hockey. But all I can say is is that I can't fault the man for thinking that a change was needed. He thought they had hit a wall. Sometimes a message gets stale and a change of scenery is needed. It could be the best thing for McDermott and the best thing for the Bills in the end.

Andrews is likely to chase a ring or retire. His tank is close to E. Mack is likely in ring chasing mode too. I will take either but I don't think we are a spot for formerly elite players to end.

You are the first. For everyone else it is Burden. By less than a point. His production just not as good as Tet’s, and Tet was wearing the Number 1 WR hat which PFF should find a way to factor in.

GM’s always have the ear of the owner.

Certainly it needed to be addressed but can we be honest with one another and acknowledge that the urgency to address it by any means necessary was due to the org needing to save face for how poorly their #1 overall pick performed? Only thing to do from here is learn from the experience and begin building a complete roster methodically. Heavy emphasis on the word complete.

So many HC changes, who want their own systems, there will be some good players available. Definitely need offensive line, a decent TE, and front 7 help. Maybe take a chance on a Mark Andrews change of scenery. Khalil Mack for some veteran presence

I wonder if Ghost has the stomach bug. That was the rumor at least online.

I think Josh Allen will eventually force his way out of Buffalo, and people will look back at this offseason as the reason why. Will take 2-3 years and I bet he goes west coast (maybe LA to replace Stafford...??) but I don't think he's gonna stay in Buffalo that much longer. Especially if they (predictably) struggle the next year or two.

By that logic is Adam theilen a pro bowler?

I hear you. But I 100% agree the oline needed to be improved from 2023. That was a complete disaster. They were gonna get someone killed out there. Heck, Dalton had a great game against Seattle that year, but there's no way he could have lasted a season behind that group. Seattle wasn't even particularly good and they had several HUGE hits on him the entire game. Now did Dan need to go out and spend the farm on OGs? That was probably a bit of an overreaction. Time to start replacing that whole group with draft picks. None of them are worth the money they're being paid. Not saying they aren't good players. Just that they're all overpaid. Sans whoever we march out there at Center.

dawg, not sure if you follow hockey at all but Terry Pegula is by far the worst owner in the NHL and has run the Buffalo Sabres into the ground -- 14 straight years missing the playoffs. Buffalo media has reported extensively about how Pegula has run each team (mostly hands off with the Bills since McD and Josh arrived) and their observations are that the way Pegula has handled the McDermott and Beane situation has been an absolute disaster and very reminiscent of the Sabres disfunction. We don't really know the full story and never will but I do know that Pegula's comments in that press conference were completely asinine and came across to me as a terrible owner trying to come across like he knows what he's doing. Why in the world would you make those comments about an active player on the team, or air all this alleged behind the scenes dirty laundry in a press conference? Came across to me as a terrible owner being defensive about his stupid decisions. There very much was a reason McDermott was fired and Beane was kept. Now, whether that reason had any basis in objective logic and reason is anyone's guess. Based on Pegula's history, I suspect his reasoning behind the decision was very flawed. This is very reminiscent of some of Tepper's clown decisions and comments from the worst moments of his time as our owner so far.

How did the Texans afford to put those weapons around him though? 25 out of 32 in OL spending compared to us at #1. And they gave up the same number of sacks as we did in 2025.

Did anyone point out that tet wasn’t even PFFs highest rated rookie receiver

That’s kind of amusing that they passed on McConkey too. Sister franchises. Carolina North.

1000% disagree. One is an elite center and the other is a bottom 10 center. The difference will be extreme. No shade to Mays, would love to keep him around as our utility IOL but he has never played above an average level and that is him balling out.

Buffalo has a much worse roster than Carolina's (besides the QB, obviously). Swap BY and JA and the Panthers go 14-3 and the Bills go 4-13. Two disgruntled AFC QB's in Burrow and Allen, but there is no way those teams let those players go. You never know, though. I'd easily give 3 first round picks for either

Could be McDermott pushed heavily for Coleman. I've heard the "it was a collaborative decision" line after firing a coach before though. They may win the short term PR game with this decision but the onus is still on them to hire not just a new head coach but one that will get them not just into the playoffs but the Super Bowl.
