Buffalo is where careers go to die.

It'll be difficult for him to earn that big 2nd contract with Tyrod Taylor.

Haven't you heard? According to our boy Adam Schein, KB will finally get to play with a real QB now for the first time in his career.

Maybe he'll fail his physical and this whole thing will fall through.

 

Come on Benji. You know what you need to do. I expect to see you literally dragging your leg behind you.

LOL, not going to happen.  The guy just played a full game.

Physicals are more elaborate than this. 

The Buffalo bills athletic trainers may be just the vessel we need to be shielded from Hurney's failure, and, perhaps even the ensuing embarrassment will prompt Richardson to relieve Hurney of his duties

 

oh this is happening. What a blessing in disguise this will all be

I have certain sources that tell me Kelvin is not considered even remotely healthy.  No one team-wise is happy about it, including those that cast the die.  It had to be done and KB is much more sad than angry because he knows his time is up.  He has NO hope.  The knee will not last.

The only thing I will say in response to this is that players in trades have to pass a physical by the team that they are sent to.

If KB fails that physical, you have good sources.

If KB passes that physical, you might just want to nod and smile at your "sources" in the future.  No team is going to spend a 3rd round choice on a player that has a "ticking time bomb" that they detect in that player's knee.

Until he's sent back and we cut him...

Some of you guys need to go back and read the original post.  The knee is "ok" now and may allow him to play for another year or two, but a long career is just not in the cards.  That's the cold reality of the NFL.

The Bills are 5-2.  When is the last time the Bills were 5-2?  They have one pretty good WR (Jordan Mathews) and a somewhat disappointing rookie (Zay Jones) starting.  They really need a vet WR and are willing to roll the dice on a guy with a chronic knee issue.

The only way any of this makes sense is if everyone has the understanding that KB's knee will last for another 1.5 seasons max.  Buffalo gets a legit possession receiver to make their playoff run.  The Panthers have assets to replace KBs production in Samuel and Shepherd.  The Panthers were unlikely to get a comp pick given the life expectancy of the knee, therefore getting a third now is not a bad alternative. 

The only problem is Hurney now has an extra pick to draft some bum.

I'm sorry, Brandon Beane is not going to spend a 3rd round pick on a player who only has 2 years left to play and is going to cost him $8.4 million next year.

That's beyond ludicrous.

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks seem to be Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team). Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?
