They can mix in 4 wides a few times a game along with the 12 personnel. Maybe Diggs and Samuel split wide with Shakir and Kincaid in the slots. Who you gonna cover?

Re: Curtis Samuel WR to Bills
IIRC Mitch Morse had a $12mil cap hit for '24 and was a free agent in '25. Considering what he recently signed for I have a hard time believing the team couldn't have re-did his contract for similar terms...or less..than what they just ponied up for Samuel.
It took this regime seven long years to finally figure out the offensive line, and when they did they dork it up and cut their starting center/best offensive trench guy essentially trading out the roster spot and contract/cap numbers for yet another 'weapon' that nobody knows exactly what his role could or should be.
It's **** like this that just adds to my doubt that this crew really knows what it is doing or will ever win anything significant.YardRat Wall of Fame

I'm of the opposite view.
This is NOT "**** like this that just adds to my doubt that this crew really knows what it is doing or will ever win anything significant."....this is smart forward thinking that has me CONFIDENT that this crew knows EXACTLY what they are doing as needs to be done one they have one of the handful of elite superstar QB's in the NFL and the realities of the cap system that makes roster management with that rare elite QB so difficult.

Re: Curtis Samuel WR to Bills
well we needed size and speed and he brings speed. I like him but it doesn't take 1st round WR off the table. IT DOES make it less mandatory. If there is a run on WRs and we don't like the value on the board when our pick comes up they can confidently take BPA, then try again in round 2 for WR.My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.
MY WIFE SAID THAT!!!

We took the correct direction imo.

Re: Curtis Samuel WR to Bills
I think he's Deebo Samuel light, and has not been used in Deebo Samuel's way. I don't watch college football that much but even I remembered him on that championship Ohio State team where he was a hybrid between running back and WR. Looking back in the draft, he followed the same path as Deebo people deciding what position he should be. They both fell into the 2nd round. And look their careers, when they both being used as WR AND RB, they produced better numbers. Of course Deebo is 20lb bigger and more dynamic but Curtis runs in 4.3s instead 4.4s.
This looked to be a guy Brady pounded the table for, not someone Beane would be looking for in their prototype receiver exercise. So seems like McDermott is letting Brady run the offense. The good thing is that there is an example in how 49ers using Deebo, and Brady himself got out of Curtis in Carolina (though I don't know if it was by design though because McCaffrey was hurt that year). If Brady is able to figure out to maximize Curtis' capability, getting output somewhere close to Deebo's, it'll be a big hit --- more likely than the output of any WR(s) we draft in April. It is also something that can propel Brady to be on the short list of HC candidates next year.

100%
Hopefully Brady has this one right!!

Re: Curtis Samuel WR to Bills
Curtis Samuel contract details- Buffalo Bills retain year-to-year flexibility in WR’s deal - Buffalo Rumblings
Samuel received $6.9 million in a signing bonus as part of $15 million fully guaranteed in the deal. His 2024 compensation and $5 million of his 2025 salary is fully guaranteed.
The rest of the 2025 salary guarantees on February 10, 2025, so right after the Super Bowl on February 9.
His base salary in 2024 is the league minimum because of the signing bonus, and it moves up to $6.9 million in 2025 and $6.51 million in 2026 with a $1 million roster bonus, so the cash is very evenly split.
With only $5 million of his 2025 salary guaranteed, the Bills can get out of the contract next February if they want. They release him and they would still owe him the $5 million but it would be offset by whoever signed him in free agency.
So let’s call it what it is; A one-year deal worth about $12.6 million or a two-year deal worth $16 million. The third year doesn’t get any guaranteed cash until the start of the 2026 league year and it’s a one-year team option for $8 million.
