All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Per ESPN Last Minute Free Agency Buzz one fit that is getting whispered about is the Bills and LB Lavonte David.
Presumably this would be the replacement for Edmunds. David is a classic Cover 2 LB with good range and great instincts. He is older and the contract would be key here.
With the NFL free agency negotiating window kicking off Monday, our insiders empty their notebooks on all the latest buzz, including what's happening in the quarterback market and more.
Article is on ESPN+ so it’s paywall protected.

Wouldn't hate it...depending on the contract...but I'd rather go younger.
Me too, if we are going in this direction I’d rather have Wagner, David’s production went down this past season. But I would rather have T. J. Edwards!
What kind of money do you think these three are going to get?
Great question!!

So would I. Which is why extending Edmunds (for the right money....like Joe B. projects, $16M APY with a $7.92M 2023 cap hit would be a no-brainer and the smart move.
Lavonte David would be an expensive band-aid and Edmunds was better than his last season, and still have upside....David is on the downside of his career.
I know you don’t agree, but as we are going to see in the next couple of weeks, Tremaine Edmunds is going to be a hot commodity and IS going to become one of the highest paid off-ball LB’s in the NFL, as he deserves.
Money talks and bullcrap walks. The money is going to do the talking.
I was hopeful for an Edmunds extension, but that feels like it's not going to happen at this point.
David would make a lot of sense as a short term vet replacement. Tampa has the worst cap situation and no QB. They're probably looking at a pretty bad year. David has been really durable, a consistent performer and would fit in well. For how much they put on that MLB position, I could see McD really wanting a player like David for that role.
There's no way I'm tying up 17mil on a LB whose success depends on everyone around him. He's never taken over a game. He's a great compliment to this defense but not 17mil worth on his own.

I agree he's going to be a hot commodity.
I also agree he's going to make some bank.
I don't agree he deserves it, however, and hope it's not us that backs up the Brinks Truck.
If I were a GM of a poor-middling team with a ton of cap space I'd throw money at him, but I'd move to him to edge in more of a Von Miller-type role.

Sportrac has the market values at:
Edmunds - $11.9M/yr
Edwards - $11.9M/yr
David - $9.7M/yr
Wagner was on a 5 year $50M contract.
The article I posted referenced that Edmunds may try and push the market and ask for around $20M/yr, Edwards will likely go in the mid teens I'd bet. Wagner and David could be closer, but I think you can get David at sub $8M per year where you probably need to be close to $10M for Wagner.

I’d be happy with Wagner at $10 million for two years, but I’d go hard after Edwards before Edmunds signs and inflates the market.
