    It's also absolutely stupid that a guy like Brock Purdy takes his team to the superbowl, but is making less than most punters
    Agree with this one ..... maybe the QB salaries should only count 50% AGAINST the cap or just lower them ..... collude if you must

    I love football but I wish we could shorten the regular season to 15 games as well.
    It's going to go to 18 which is too many

    Yep. Spot on!!!

    There is NO WAY the Bills draft 11 players. There is little doubt that Beane purposely hoarded draft picks as trade currency.

    The list of picks for the Bills is now final...

    1st - 28
    2nd - 60
    3rd - none
    4th - 127
    4th - 133 (compensatory)
    5th - 143 (from Chi)
    5th - 159 (from GB)
    5th - 162
    6th - 188 (from LAR)
    6th - 199 (from DAL)
    6th - 203
    7th - 248

    Can Beane be contemplating trading up to grab a WR like Brian Thomas??? I sure hope so.

    Re: Pressure on the draft builds

    If you look at Diggs contract he's going to be here this year but probably not next. It's difficult to find a #1 receiver at the end of the 1st round usually (plenty of exceptions I know) but if there was ever a year this might be it with the depth of the talent at WR in this year's draft. Decent possibility a really good WR is there at 28, especially if 5-6 QB's are taken in the 1st.

    Re: Pressure on the draft builds

    A couple teams have multiple picks in the second round. If there isn’t a player that the Bills love, I propose something like this.
    Offer Washington our 28, 128, 134, and 144 pick.
    In return the Bills get their 36 & 67 picks.
    That give us 2 2nds and a 3rd.
    They could definitely get a DT, S, DE or a couple of these positions or maybe a C!

    Carolina has multiple 2nds as well.

    3 in the top 67 I'll take it!
