I'm gonna be honest, these contracts are causing my interest in the sport to diminish. The contracts keep increasing exponentially and so do the ticket prices, merchandise, concessions, etc. while the typical fan is falling behind vs. inflation. I'm a football junkie but at some point I'm going to force myself to to lose interest in the billionaire play things. I'm getting pretty fuging close. Hell, I'll just watch local HS football to get my fix because college football is going down the same path.

I mean I get it but it's professional sports and inflation isn't the NFL's fault.

Also safety. One have 1 on the roster 

True, but one corner is a nickle and the other stays hurt.  You really need four strong CBs to have a solid corner corps. Two starting safeties with one decent reserve is standard.  I bet we sign at least one of the 5 safeties back we let walk when they realize there isn't a strong market for them.  Safeties are the 'RBs' of the defense.  Smart on us to let them ALL test the waters and not jump the gun on a new deal.  Again, we will end up re-signing one or two of these guys later in FA.

He’s never been able to crack the starting lineup there over guys picked way later and with less physical gifts. Maybe he’s great and doesn’t fit the system but McDermott and co churn out pro bowl corners and he never measured up to his draft position

Reading about the rumor--Bills fans hate this guy

No thanks.  Bills fans are a pretty savvy football bunch.  I'd trust their input.  If they say this guy blows, then he most likely does.

DK got his 30 m per from Pitts but does anyone know the trade details?

All I heard was the trade was for a 2025 second and swapping late round picks. 5 years, $150m

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
